[0051] The planet carrier model 103 and the self-core groove 203 each have two;
[0052] The upper shell mold corresponding to each planet carrier model 103 is provided with two riser necks 205 and risers 206, and each two riser necks 205 and risers 206 respectively form two risers to compensate for the shrinkage of one planet carrier casting;
[0053] A gate nest 104, a gate 105, a sprue 204, and a sprue cup 207 are provided between the two planet carrier models 103, and the gate nest 104, the gate 105, the sprue 204, and the sprue cup 207 constitute a pouring system;
[0054] The outermost edge size of the first mold cavity 107 of the first movable mold body 102 is larger than the outermost edge size of the groove 106 of the first fixed mold body 101, and the two can form a positioning groove 301 for the lower mold shell 3; the second fixed mold body 201 has a second positioning groove 210, which can form a positioning boss 401 of the upper mold shell 4 that matches the positioning groove 301 of the lower mold shell 3 with the second movable mold body 202.
[0055] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 The planet carrier shown is made of ZG40Cr. The product is produced in large quantities and has high requirements for surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Figure 3 As shown, the large end face of the casting faces upward, and a self-core is used in the groove; two risers are set to compensate for shrinkage, and the riser adopts a neck design to reduce the heat node at the contact between the casting and the riser; a riser neck is set at the root of the riser to facilitate riser cutting; "one mold and two pieces" is adopted, and a gate nest is set below the sprue. The molten steel flows into the gate nest and then is divided, and two castings are poured at the same time; for the convenience of pouring, a pouring cup is set above the sprue.
[0056] A coated sand shell mold for planetary carrier casting, which can be used in conjunction with a double-station vertical core shooting machine to produce high-precision Figure 1 , Figure 2 The planet carrier shown in the figure, the specific structure and working principle of the mold are described in detail below.
[0057] The mold consists of a lower shell mold and an upper shell mold that cooperate with each other.
[0058] Among them, Figures 4 to 10 As shown, the lower shell mold includes the steps of using the lower shell mold of this embodiment to make the lower shell 3:
[0059] 1. Screw two lifting rings with external threads into the first threaded hole 125 for lifting of the first fixed mold body 101 and the second threaded hole 126 for lifting of the first movable mold body 102, respectively, lift the lower shell mold to one of the installation positions of the double-station vertical core shooting machine, install the first fixed mold body 101 on the fixed plate of the core shooting machine through the first mounting hole 115 on the first mounting flange 114, and install the first movable mold body 102 on the movable push plate of the core shooting machine through the second mounting hole 117 on the second mounting flange 116, and then remove the two lifting rings respectively;
[0060] 2. After checking that the first fixed mold body 101 and the first movable mold body 102 are accurately positioned and can be opened and closed normally, insert the resistive heating tube into the first heating tube hole 111 of the first fixed mold body 101 and the second heating tube hole 113 of the first movable mold body 102 respectively, and insert the temperature measuring thermocouple into the first temperature measuring hole 112 of the first fixed mold body 101;
[0061] 3. Set the core shooting machine operating parameters, including sand shooting time, heating temperature, and heating time;
[0062] 4. After checking that the installation is correct, press the core shooter operation button and the core shooter starts to heat the mold; when the temperature is heated to the set value, the core making indicator light turns on, indicating that the shell making operation can be carried out;
[0063] 5. Spray the mold release agent to the mold cavity, press the core shooting machine core button, and the core shooting machine movable push plate pushes the first movable mold body 102 to close the mold with the first fixed mold body 101. The first positioning hole 109 and the first positioning pin 110 ensure accurate positioning. Under the action of the first reset ejector 120 and the second reset ejector 123, the first ejector plate 118, the first mold shell ejector 121, the second ejector plate 122, and the second mold shell ejector 124 are in the correct position. At this time, the ejection first spring 119 is in a compressed state.
[0064] 6. The sand shooting head of the core shooting machine is aligned with the first sand shooting port 108 and pressed downward to shoot the coated sand into the mold cavity. After completion, it is lifted up and separated from the mold;
[0065] 7. The coated sand in the mold cavity hardens into the lower mold shell 3 within the set heating time. When the set heating time is reached, the movable push plate of the core shooting machine automatically opens the mold, pulling the first movable mold body 102 and the first fixed mold body 101 apart. At this time, the first ejector spring 119 releases its elastic force due to the mold opening, pushing the first ejector plate 118, prompting the first mold shell ejector rod 121 to push the lower mold shell 3 toward the movement direction of the first movable mold body 102. On the other hand, the lower mold shell 3 is pushed by the first movable mold body 102. The lower mold shell 3 is pulled by the demoulding resistance of the cavity. Under the action of "one push and one pull", the lower mold shell 3 is separated from the first fixed mold body 101 first, and remains in the mold cavity of the first movable mold body 102, and moves with it until the second top plate 122 contacts the ejection mechanism of the core shooting machine and stops, but the first movable mold body 102 continues to move to the end of the stroke before stopping. The second mold shell ejector rod 124 ejects the lower mold shell 3 out of the mold cavity of the first movable mold body 102, completing the automatic demoulding, taking away the lower mold shell, and completing the shell making operation in one piece;
[0066] 8. Use compressed air to clean the cavity of the lower shell mold and spray the release agent before proceeding to the next shell making operation.
[0067] like Fig.16 The lower shell 3 shown, Fig.17 After the upper shell 4 is manufactured, it is cooled to room temperature and can be directly used for pouring after the mold is closed without the need for painting. Before closing the mold, blow away the floating sand, then apply a circle of core adhesive to the positioning groove 301 of the lower shell 3, close the upper shell 4, and make its positioning boss 401 completely fit with the positioning groove 301 of the lower shell 3. After the core adhesive hardens, pouring can be carried out. The mold closing result is shown in FIG. Fig.18 shown.
[0068] It is worth mentioning that, in this embodiment:
[0069] 1. The double-station vertical core shooter and the matching precision hot core box mold are used to realize mechanized casting production using coated sand technology. The core shooter can install and operate the lower shell mold and the upper shell mold at the same time, and can realize the "one mold, two pieces" casting method. It has the advantages of high production efficiency, high casting size accuracy, high surface finish, etc., and there are fewer production processes, fewer factors affecting product quality, and stable product quality;
[0070] 2. The mold shell is used for casting production. According to calculations, only 0.65 kg of coated sand is needed to produce 1 kg of castings. The consumption of coated sand is low, and the mold shell does not need to be painted and can be directly provided for pouring, which saves paint consumption, reduces production processes, shortens production time, and reduces production costs;
[0071] 3. The double-station vertical core shooting machine and the matching precision hot core box mold can be used to install and operate the lower shell mold and the upper shell mold at the same time. The lower shell and the upper shell manufactured at the same time can be directly combined for casting, and the production cycle is short.
[0072] In summary, the coated sand shell mold for planetary carrier casting of this embodiment is aimed at Figure 1 , Figure 2 The structure of the planetary carrier shown realizes the casting production using the coated sand process, and has the advantages of high production efficiency, low cost, high casting size accuracy, and high surface finish.
[0073] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
