Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lost foam casting, in particular to a lost foam casting negative pressure sand box. Background Art

[0002] Lost foam casting is a solid casting method that uses dry sand without binder and vacuum technology to make foam plastic molds. It is a new casting method that combines foam models with similar size and shape to the casting into a model cluster, brushes refractory coating and dries it, buries it in dry quartz sand and vibrates it to shape it, and pours it under negative pressure to vaporize the model, so that liquid metal occupies the model position and forms a casting after solidification and cooling.

[0003] The Chinese patent with publication number CN211803703U discloses a special sand box for lost foam casting with negative pressure. The design of the scraper bottom plate makes it easy to fill the sand surface by sliding the scraper bottom plate back and forth when filling sand into the sand box body. The design of the scraper side plate makes it easy to avoid the gravel spreading to the top of the scraper bottom plate when flattening. The design of the scraper storage groove makes it easy to store the scraper bottom plate in the scraper storage groove after flattening. The design of the L-shaped limit rod and the limit rod slide groove makes it easy to adjust the position of the scraper side plate on the scraper bottom plate.

[0004] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the sandbox has some shortcomings. In actual use, the sandbox is an integral structure and the internal volume cannot be expanded by assembly to meet the needs of different casting processes and castings. Users must prepare sandboxes of different sizes separately for each need, which increases equipment costs and occupied space and reduces the flexibility and applicability of the sandbox. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a lost foam casting negative pressure sandbox to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] See also Figure 1-4 , an embodiment provided by the utility model:

[0028] A lost foam casting negative pressure sandbox, comprising:

[0029] A substrate 1, a plurality of sandbox assemblies 2 are arranged on the top of the substrate 1, upper connecting blocks 7 are fixedly installed on the upper sides of the sandbox assemblies 2, a limiting groove 8 is provided on the side of the upper connecting block 7 away from the sandbox assemblies 2, and lower connecting blocks 5 are fixedly installed on the lower sides of the sandbox assemblies 2;

[0030] A mounting groove 6 is provided on the side of the lower connecting block 5 away from the sandbox assembly 2 , a bolt 16 is hinged on the mounting groove 6 , a butterfly nut 15 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bolt 16 , and positioning grooves 4 are provided on both sides of the base plate 1 .

[0031] Both sides of the bottom of the base plate 1 are fixedly mounted with symmetrically distributed universal wheels 3, and the sandbox can be pushed to move as a whole through rolling contact with the ground, avoiding the user relying on too much manpower and material resources to carry it.

[0032] In one of the embodiments, symmetrically distributed threaded holes 11 are provided on both sides of the top of the base plate 1, and an adjusting screw rod 10 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 11. A turntable 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the adjusting screw rod 10, and a pressure plate 12 is rotatably installed on the bottom end of the adjusting screw rod 10. By rotating the turntable 9, the pressure plate 12 can be brought into contact with the ground, thereby increasing the contact area and friction between the entire device and the ground, thereby ensuring the stability of the sandbox when it is in static use.

[0033] In one of the preferred embodiments, a non-slip pad 14 is bonded to the bottom of the pressing plate 12, which increases the friction between the pressing plate 12 and the ground, and further improves the stability of the sandbox when it is in static use.

[0034] In one of the embodiments, a round-shaped positioning piece 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sandbox assembly 2, and a round-shaped sealing groove 17 is opened on the top of the sandbox assembly 2 and the base plate 1, and the round-shaped sealing groove 17 is adapted to the round-shaped positioning piece 13, so that the assembled sandbox is more stable.

[0035] In one of the preferred embodiments, a sealing gasket is provided on the inner wall of the round-shaped sealing groove 17 to ensure the sealing of each connection point of the sandbox after assembly.

[0036] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the parts not involved in the device are the same as the prior art or can be implemented by the prior art. When the sandbox is in use, the sandbox assembly 2 can be directly inserted into the inside of the round-shaped sealing groove 17 at the top of the substrate 1 through the round-shaped positioning piece 13 at the bottom thereof, and then the bolts 16 at the bottom of the two sides of the sandbox assembly 2 are rotated to make the bolts 16 rotate into the inside of the positioning groove 4, and at the same time, the butterfly nuts 15 are tightened to make the butterfly nuts 15 tightly contact the top of the substrate 1, so as to complete the assembly and fixation between the sandbox assembly 2 and the substrate 1. Through this assembly method, a certain number of sandbox assemblies 2 can be assembled to expand the internal volume of the sandbox to meet the needs of different casting processes and castings, avoiding the need for users to prepare sandboxes of different sizes separately for each need, reducing the cost and occupied space of the equipment, and improving the flexibility and applicability of the sandbox. At the same time, the assembly method of the sandbox is simple, easy to quickly disassemble and assemble, and improves the convenience of people's use, and has extremely high practicality.

[0037] During the use of the sandbox, the universal wheel 3 can be used to roll with the ground to push the sandbox as a whole to move, avoiding the user relying on too much manpower and material resources to carry it, further improving the convenience of its use. In addition, when the sandbox is in use, the turntable 9 can be rotated, and the rotation of the turntable 9 drives the adjusting screw 10 to rotate. Through the threaded transmission of the adjusting screw 10 and the threaded hole 11, the adjusting screw 10 can move vertically during rotation. The movement of the adjusting screw 10 drives the pressure plate 12 to move, so that the pressure plate 12 contacts the ground, increasing the contact area and friction between the entire device and the ground, ensuring the stability of the sandbox when in use, and facilitating the stable implementation of the entire casting process.

[0038] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only preferred examples of the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection of the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
