At the same time, the density of magnesium alloys is about 2 / 3 of that of aluminum alloys. If the alloy liquid flows too fast during filling, or the cavity is not vented smoothly, invasive pores are likely to occur.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the utility model provides a casting system for a magnesium alloy shell casting with a window structure, which is used for casting a magnesium alloy shell with a window structure, including a shell cavity 1, wherein the shell cavity 1 includes a cylindrical body 2 and a window portion 3 arranged on the side of the cylindrical body 2, a straight runner 4 is arranged below the shell cavity 1, and a cross runner 5 is arranged on the straight runner 4; a vertical tooth-shaped runner 6 is arranged on the cross runner 5 corresponding to the cylindrical body 2, and a vertical gate-shaped runner 7 is arranged corresponding to the window portion 3; the vertical tooth-shaped runner 6 is connected to the side wall and the top of the cylindrical body 2 through a gap-type ingate 8, the shape of the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 corresponds to the shape of the window portion 3, and the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 is connected to the side wall of the window portion 3 through the gap-type ingate 8.
[0020] The top of the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 is provided with a gate-shaped runner riser 9, and the top of the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 is connected to the window portion 3 through a top ingates. The cross runner 5 is in a cross shape, and is provided with four bottom ingates 10 connected to the bottom of the cylindrical body 2; the number of the slit-type ingates 8 on the vertical tooth-shaped runner 6 is six.
[0021] When the casting system is used to cast the magnesium alloy shell casting with a window structure, the molten metal enters from the bottom straight runner 4, is smoothly filled through the cross-shaped cross runner 5, and then enters the interior of the shell cavity 1 through the bottom inner gate 10. Since the vertical toothed runner 6 and the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 are respectively arranged corresponding to the cylindrical body 2 and the window portion 3 of the shell cavity 1, they are connected to the interior of the shell cavity 1 through the slit inner gate 8 and the top inner gate. In this way, the vertical toothed runner 6 and the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 can stably and fully compensate for shrinkage at different parts of the shell cavity 1. Even if the wall thickness of the shell cavity 1 varies greatly, there are many slender oil passages and many thermal nodes inside, and there are also special-shaped structures such as window structures, due to the dispersed compensation of the toothed runner and the runner design of the gate runner following the window structure, the gate runner riser 9 is effectively vented and also has a compensation effect. The shell cavity 1 is fully compensated, effectively overcoming the occurrence of defects such as shrinkage, looseness, and thermal cracking.
[0022] The length L1 of the bottom ingate 10 = (1.5~3) * the width K1 of the bottom ingate 10, the height H of the bottom ingate 10 = (1.5~2) * the width K1 of the bottom ingate 10, the diameter of the vertical toothed runner 6 is 50~70mm, the length L2 of the slit ingate 8 = (1.5~2) * the width K2 of the slit ingate 8, the cross-sectional area of the vertical gate-shaped runner 7 is (1.5~2.5) * the width K2 of the slit ingate 8 * (1.5~2.5) * the width K2 of the slit ingate 8; the runner 5 is cross-shaped, the cross-sectional area of a single runner 5 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the vertical toothed runner 6 or the vertical gate-shaped runner 7, and the total cross-sectional area of the cross-shaped runner 5: the cross-sectional area of the straight runner 4 is ≥3:1.
[0023] The design of the runner and gate, combined with the decentralized runner design, completely opens the shrinkage-feeding channel of the gating system, and each cavity part is effectively and evenly fed for shrinkage, which improves the internal quality of the casting and ensures the one-time casting qualification rate of the casting.
