Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of processing a crank arm for a train, in particular to a crank arm casting mould for a train. Background Art

[0002] The crank arm castings for trains are important castings installed on the bogies or other related parts of the trains, and their quality directly affects the running safety and performance of the trains. For example, the crank arm castings installed on the bogies of diesel locomotives play the role of connecting and transmitting force. During the production process, different batches of crank arm castings may have various quality problems, such as sand holes. In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to analyze and study the crank arm casting process, such as redesigning the pouring system to improve product quality. The crank arm castings are usually made of specific materials, such as carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, etc. The specific material selection depends on the design requirements and working environment of the train;

[0003] In some existing casting molds for train crank arms, when processing the castings for train crank arms, two molds are combined, and molten metal is poured into the combined mold through a pouring port, and then the molds are cooled. After cooling, the two molds are separated to take out the castings for train crank arms;

[0004] In the traditional mold for train crank arm casting, the upper and lower templates cannot be quickly replaced when processing the train crank arm casting, so only train crank arm castings of a single size can be cast. At the same time, a long time of natural cooling is required after casting, which affects the production efficiency of the train crank arm casting. For this reason, we propose a mold for train crank arm casting. Utility Model Content

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are: the train crank arm casting mold has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. Insert the trapezoidal bar into the trapezoidal groove, and then the inserting bar will be inserted into the inside of the jack. The teeth on the outer side of the inserting bar will contact the pick. Under the rebound action of the torsion spring, the pick will be engaged with the teeth, and the inserting bar will not be able to move. When the template needs to be replaced, push the lever, the lever will drive the pick to separate from the teeth, and then it will be pulled out from the inside of the trapezoidal groove through the trapezoidal bar, and then the template will be replaced. When processing the train crank arm casting, the upper and lower templates are detachable, and the upper and lower templates of different sizes can be quickly replaced, which is convenient for casting train crank arm castings of different sizes.

[0018] 2. Then, ice water is injected into the interior of the metal tube through an external water pipe.

The air will pass through the metal tube to form cold wind and blow on the bottom surface of the template, cooling the templates at the upper and lower ends respectively. After the cooling is completed, the crank arm casting can be taken out, which shortens the molding time of the train crank arm casting and improves the production efficiency of the train crank arm casting.
