Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of foundry sand cooling equipment, in particular to a foundry sand cooling device. Background Art

[0002] Molding sand can be divided into surface sand, filling sand and single sand. Surface sand is a layer of molding sand close to the casting and has high quality requirements. Filling sand is behind the surface sand layer and does not contact the molten metal, so the quality requirements are not strict. Single sand is molding sand that is not divided into surface sand and back sand and is mainly used for machine modeling. In addition, the sand mold of large castings often needs to be dried before pouring. The molding sand used contains more clay. This kind of molding sand is called dry mold sand. At present, in large-scale continuous production, the temperature of the molding sand is too high, which will cause damage to the foam model. Therefore, a cooling device is needed to cool the casting sand.

[0003] When the current cooling device is in use, it feeds the casting sand into a barrel and cools it by passing cold water into a water-cooling jacket outside the barrel. Since the casting sand is piled up in the barrel, its internal temperature is difficult to reduce, resulting in incomplete cooling of the casting sand. Utility Model Content

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the scraper is connected to a heat conducting plate, and the heat conducting plate is located at the top opening of the cooling silo.

[0010] Furthermore, a solenoid valve is provided at the bottom of the discharge port.

[0011] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that molding sand is added to the cooling silo from the top, cold water in the outer cooling pipes in the cooling silo cools the molding sand from the outside, and cold water in the inner cooling pipe in the cooling cylinder cools the molding sand from the inside, the auger lifts the molding sand at the bottom of the cooling silo from the cooling cylinder upward, and falls back into the cooling silo outside the cooling cylinder, so that the molding sand flows in the cooling silo and is cooled evenly, and the molding sand transfers heat to the heat conducting plate through the stirring rod and the scraper, the contact area between the heat conducting plate and the air is large, the heat dissipation is faster, and the heat conducting plate rotates with the scraper to improve the heat dissipation efficiency.

The molding sand with a higher temperature transfers heat to the stirring rod 11 and the scraper 10 during stirring. The heat on the stirring rod 11 and the scraper 10 is transferred to the heat conductive sheet 13. The heat conductive sheet 13 has a large contact area with the air and dissipates heat faster.

The heat conducting plate 13 has a large contact area with the air and dissipates heat faster. The heat conducting plate 13 rotates with the scraper 10 to improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
