Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of automatic cooling and mold opening mechanisms for casting cylinder heads, and more specifically, particularly relates to an automatic cooling and mold opening mechanism. Background Art
[0002] When casting an engine cylinder head, a sand mold is usually used to shape the engine cylinder head. The sand mold used to cast the engine cylinder head usually consists of an upper mold, a lower mold and a gate. The gate is set in the lower mold. The space formed between the upper mold and the lower mold is a closed cavity. In order to control the gap between the upper mold and the lower mold, during casting, the upper mold and the lower mold are first fitted together and then fastened with bolts. The casting process adopts a low-pressure casting process to allow the molten metal to enter from the gate on the bottom mold. The molten metal slowly rises from bottom to top in the cavity between the upper mold and the lower mold until it fills the entire cavity. After the molten metal fills the cavity, it needs to be naturally cooled for a period of time. After loosening the bolts, the upper mold is hooked up with a crane to complete the opening operation of the sand mold.
[0003] The existing application number is: CN202020733154.2. The utility model discloses a rapid casting mold for an engine cylinder head, including a lower die base, an upper die base is arranged on the top of the lower die base, positioning grooves are provided on the front and rear sides of the top of the lower die base, buffer grooves are provided on both sides of the top of the lower die base, and a buffer member is provided in the inner cavity of the buffer groove, and the buffer member includes a buffer plate, and springs are arranged on the bottom of the buffer plate from left to right, and the bottom of the spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the buffer groove, and a buffer pad is fixedly connected to the top of the buffer plate. The utility model achieves the advantage of rapid positioning by setting a lower die base, an upper die base, a positioning groove, a buffer groove, a buffer member, a positioning column, a buffer block, a mounting seat, a mounting plate, a bolt and a connecting plate, which cooperate with each other, improves work efficiency, can meet the needs of users, and can protect the mold and extend the service life of the casting mold.
[0004] Based on the above, during casting, the upper mold and the lower mold are first fitted together and then fastened with bolts. Then the molten metal needs to fill the entire cavity to complete the casting of the engine cylinder head. The upper mold and the lower mold are then fastened with bolts. There are four groups of bolts, and the four groups of bolts are respectively located on the sides of the upper mold and the lower mold. In order to make these four groups of bolts produce the same and appropriate pre-tightening force, when tightening the bolts, it is necessary to perform the initial tightening of the four groups of bolts on the sides of the upper mold and the lower mold in turn. The initial tightening cannot exceed 70% of the bolt torque. After the initial tightening of the four groups of bolts, the four groups of bolts are re-tightened in turn. When re-tightening, the four groups of bolts produce the same and appropriate pre-tightening force. In the process of initial tightening and re-tightening of the four groups of bolts, it is necessary to tighten the bolts multiple times around the upper mold and the lower mold. When opening the mold, it is also necessary to loosen the four groups of bolts around the upper mold and the lower mold. The process is relatively cumbersome, wastes manpower, and affects work efficiency. Utility Model Content
