[0002] The lost foam negative pressure system includes a vacuum pump, an air storage tank, a main pipeline, a negative pressure distributor and a sand box. The lost foam pattern cluster is placed in the sand box, and sand is filled around the pattern cluster. There is a layer of stainless steel screen between the air chamber of the sand box and the molding sand. When the negative pressure is pumped, the dust of the molding sand and the tar-like residue produced by burning the white mold will pass through the stainless steel screen and adhere to the inner surface of the sand box air chamber. Over time, the residue will gradually block the air chamber of the sand box, resulting in increased energy consumption for pumping negative pressure, reduced negative pressure in the sand box, inability to fully burn the white mold, backspray of molten steel during pouring, insufficient pouring of castings and other problems.
[0003] However, most of the existing air chambers are welded and fixed on the side walls of the sand box. When cleaning the air chamber of the sand box, it is necessary to use a gas cutting gun to completely cut the air chamber from the sand box and separate it from the right-angle connection of the air chamber for cleaning. After the air chamber is cleaned, it needs to be re-welded on the sand box and polished flat. This cleaning method is not only troublesome to operate and time-consuming, but also in the process of gas cutting, sand particles splash, which will cause certain harm to the operator. Therefore, a lost foam sand box air chamber cleaning device is needed. Utility Model Content
