Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of casting, and in particular relates to a cold core box component and a cold core machine. Background Art

[0002] In the related art, the shell core machine is a widely used equipment in the foundry industry, mainly used to make coated sand shell cores. Its working principle is based on the hot core box process. By injecting a core sand mixture containing liquid or solid thermosetting resin into the heated core box, the sand core is quickly hardened to a certain thickness (about 5-10mm) in the hot core box, thereby producing a finished sand core. The main body cores of small varieties are basically produced by shell core machines. The efficiency of shell cores is low, with only 60-80 shots in one shift. For example, two shell core machines are required to produce three main body cores for 380 and 390 bodies. The rhythm of core making causes the main body core to be made in advance to meet the production of the KW line. The long placement time of the sand core affects the quality of the casting. For this reason, the foundry decided to use cold core core making for the main body core. However, when using the cold core machine to shoot sand during casting, one is that the sand runs away and the sand core is not shot enough; the other is that the ejector hole core head withdraws the block, resulting in the ejector hole core not being able to be assembled in place when the core is assembled, so the core size is prone to problems.

[0003] In order to solve the technical problem of core size deviation caused by insufficient sand injection due to improper mold closing when using a cold core machine for casting, it is urgent to design a cold core box assembly. Utility Model Content

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of 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.

[0026] In the related art, the shell core machine is a widely used equipment in the foundry industry, mainly used to make coated sand shell cores. Its working principle is based on the hot core box process. By injecting a core sand mixture containing liquid or solid thermosetting resin into the heated core box, the sand core is quickly hardened to a certain thickness (about 5-10mm) in the hot core box, thereby producing a finished sand core. The main body cores of small varieties are basically produced by shell core machines. The efficiency of shell cores is low, with only 60-80 shots in one shift. For example, two shell core machines are required to produce three main body cores for 380 and 390 bodies. The rhythm of core making causes the main body core to be made in advance to meet the production of the KW line. The long placement time of the sand core affects the quality of the casting. For this reason, the foundry decided to use cold core core making for the main body core. However, when using the cold core machine to shoot sand during casting, one is that the sand runs away and the sand core is not shot enough; the other is that the ejector hole core head withdraws the block, resulting in the ejector hole core not being able to be assembled in place when the core is assembled, so the core size is prone to problems.

[0027] In order to solve the technical problem of core size deviation caused by insufficient sand injection due to improper mold closing when using a cold core machine for casting, it is urgent to design a cold core box assembly and a cold core machine.

[0028] like Figure 1As shown, at least one embodiment of the cold core box assembly 1 comprises: a lower core box 20, the upper part of which is provided with a core pulling mechanism, which is suitable for driving the movable limit block 31 to translate; an upper core box 10, the lower surface of which is provided with an upper limit block 11; and when the lower core box 20 and the upper core box 10 are molded together, the core pulling mechanism pushes the movable limit block 31 to translate and abut against the upper limit block 11 to limit the lower and upper core boxes 10. When making the core, the core pulling mechanism is translated into place before the mold is closed. When opening the mold, the mold is opened first and then the core pulling mechanism is pulled out. In this way, by adding a limiting structure, insufficient core shooting can be prevented from being caused by the withdrawal of the block pulling mechanism during core shooting.

[0029] In some embodiments, the core pulling mechanism includes: a core box block mounting plate 30, the outer side of which is fixed with the movable limit block 31. When the core pulling mechanism translates, it drives the core box block mounting plate 30 and the movable limit block 31 fixed on its outer side to translate; and a plurality of pulling blocks, which are arranged on the side of the core box block mounting plate 30 close to the mold cavity. When making cores, the core pulling mechanism translates into place, that is, the plurality of pulling blocks translate into place, and the pulling blocks translate into the mold cavity for core shooting during casting; and a cylinder 32, the piston rod of the cylinder 32 is connected to the core box block mounting plate 30 to push the core box block mounting plate 30 to drive the movable limit block 31 to translate. The cylinder 32 is arranged to push the core box block mounting plate 30 to translate, and the core making effect is more efficient and convenient.

[0030] In some embodiments, two cylinders 32 are used and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the core box block mounting plate 30. Due to the core box size limitation, it is most preferred to arrange the cylinders 32 on both sides of the core box block mounting plate 30. To meet different casting requirements, the number of cylinders 32 can be adjusted.

[0031] In some embodiments, the pumping blocks include: a cylinder liner hole pumping block 34 and a push rod hole core head pumping block 35; when making cores, the cylinder liner hole pumping block 34 and the push rod hole core head pumping block 35 are translated into place to ensure sand shooting molding, ensure the size and shape of the core head, and thus the core assembly meets the process requirements. To meet different casting requirements, the pumping blocks can be adjusted differently. When the cylinder 32 pushes the core box pumping block mounting plate 30 to translate, the core box pumping block mounting plate 30 drives the cylinder liner hole pumping block 34 and the push rod hole pumping block to translate, and the mold is closed after the translation into place.

[0032] In some embodiments, at least one guide hole 36 is provided on the core box block mounting plate 30; a guide rod 33 is inserted into the guide hole 36, so that the core box block mounting plate 30 can be translated along the guide rod 33. These settings determine the direction of translation of the core box block mounting plate 30.

[0033] In some embodiments, in order to better fix the guide rod 33, a fixing block 21 for connecting the guide rod 33 is also provided on the lower core box 20, one end of the guide rod 33 passes through the core box block mounting plate 30 and is fixed on the lower core box 20, and the other end of the guide rod 33 is fixed on the fixing block 21.

[0034] In some embodiments, the contact surface between the movable limit block 31 and the upper limit block 11 is an inclined surface. Such a setting is more conducive to guiding the mold closing and avoids the block being not pulled into place at the beginning, causing the upper core box 10 to collide after the mold is closed.

[0035] In some embodiments, the angle formed by the inclined plane and the horizontal plane is 55°-80°, at which time the abutting surfaces of the movable limit block 31 and the upper limit block 11 are slowly in contact, and the locking position is limited.

[0036] In some embodiments, the upper core box 10 is provided with a feed port 12 communicating with the mold cavity, and the feed port 12 is used for the casting material to enter.

[0037] Some embodiments further provide a cold core machine, comprising: a cold core box assembly 1; and a spraying device 2, which is connected to a feed port 12. Casting material is sprayed out from the spraying device 2, and enters a mold cavity formed by the upper core box 10 and the lower core box 20 through the feed port 12 to start casting.
