Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of casting molds, in particular to a lost foam mold with high space utilization. Background Art

[0002] Lost foam casting is an advanced green and environmentally friendly casting process. It is a nearly zero-residue, precise molding process that uses foam that disappears when it encounters liquid metal to make the pattern (i.e., lost foam white mold).

[0003] During casting, the lost foam white mold is used as a pattern to make a sand mold, and then liquid metal is poured. The liquid metal vaporizes the lost foam white mold and occupies the cavity of the lost foam white mold, and forms a casting after cooling. Lost foam casting does not require mold removal, has no parting surface, and no sand core, so there is no flash burr, a small draft angle, and reduces the dimensional error caused by the core combination. Therefore, the lost foam casting has a better development prospect and is promoted faster. What follows is that the number of molds for making lost foam is large, the capital investment is large, and a large space is required for storage. Utility Model Content

[0026] Figure 6 and Figure 7 The following are the lost foam white molds used in the production of two commonly used metal parts on pumps. Figure 6 For the upper lost foam white mold 10, Figure 7 The upper lost foam white mold 10 and the lower lost foam white mold 11 are both annular, the outer diameter of the upper lost foam white mold 10 is smaller than the inner diameter of the lower lost foam white mold 11, and the upper lost foam white mold 10 is thin at the edge and thick in the middle. Figure 8 and Fig. 9 They are respectively a mold for producing an upper lost foam white mold 10 and a mold for producing a lower lost foam white mold 11. Since both molds are composed of an upper and a lower part, both need to have a corresponding structure of the mold, and the upper lost foam white mold 10 and the lower lost foam white mold 11 need to be produced using corresponding molds. Therefore, the mold capital investment is large, a large storage space is required, and the upper lost foam white mold 10 and the lower lost foam white mold 11 need to be produced separately, so the production efficiency is low and the production cost is high.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a lost foam mold with high space utilization rate includes an upper mold and a lower mold that are buckled together, and an upper cavity 3 for producing an upper lost foam white mold 10 and a lower cavity 5 for producing a lower lost foam white mold 11 are arranged between the upper mold and the lower mold. The upper cavity 3 and the lower cavity 5 are both annular, the middle of the upper cavity 3 is thick and the edge is thin, the axis of the upper cavity 3 and the axis of the lower cavity 5 coincide and are both vertical, the outer diameter of the upper cavity 3 is smaller than the inner diameter of the lower cavity 5, the bottom surface of the upper cavity 3 is an upper parting surface 8, and the top surface of the lower cavity 5 is a lower parting surface 9, the upper mold is provided with an upper injection port 2 connected to the side of the upper cavity 3, and the lower mold is provided with a lower injection port 4 connected to the side of the lower cavity 5.

[0029] The upper mold includes an upper mold body 1 and an upper mold core 13 fixedly arranged at the center of the upper mold body 1. In actual production, the upper mold body 1 and the upper mold core 13 are integrally formed by casting. The upper mold cavity 3 is located between the upper mold core 13 and the top of the lower mold, and the upper injection port 2 is located on the side of the upper mold core 13.

[0030] The lower mold includes a lower mold body 7 and an inverted bowl-shaped lower mold core 6 fixedly connected to the center of the lower mold body 7 by screws. The upper mold cavity 3 is surrounded by an upper mold core 13, an upper mold body 1 and a lower mold core 6. The lower mold cavity 5 is surrounded by a lower mold core 6, a lower mold body 7 and an upper mold body 1. The lower injection port 4 is located on the side of the lower mold body 7.

[0031] The upper mold body 1, the upper mold core 13, the lower mold body 7 and the lower mold core 6 are all made of high-hardness cast aluminum metal material, and the material grade is ZL104.

[0032] The upper parting surface 8 and the lower parting surface 9 are located on the same plane, which is a common parting surface 12 . The matching surfaces of the upper mold body 7 and the lower mold body 7 and the common parting surface 12 are located on the same plane.

[0033] The use process of the utility model is:

[0034] The upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 7 are buckled together, and then the material is injected into the upper cavity 3 and the lower cavity 5 through the upper injection port 2 and the lower injection port 4 respectively. The material foams and expands in the upper cavity 3 and the lower cavity 5 to form an upper lost mold white mold 10 and a lower lost mold white mold 10 respectively.

[0035] Since the upper lost foam white mold 10 and the lower lost foam white mold 10 can be produced simultaneously by using a set of molds, the number of molds is reduced, the capital investment and the space occupied by the molds are reduced, and the production efficiency can be improved and the production cost can be reduced during production.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] like Figure 3-5 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that:

[0038] The upper parting surface 8 and the lower parting surface 9 are staggered up and down, and the upper parting surface 8 is higher than the lower parting surface 9. The upper mold body 1 is bowl-shaped, and the bottom of the upper mold body 1 is the bottom plate 14, and the upper parting surface 8 is higher than the top surface of the bottom plate 14. The top of the lower mold core 6 is inserted into the bottom plate 14, and the matching surface of the lower mold core 6 and the bottom plate 14 is conical, which facilitates the alignment of the upper mold core 13 and the lower mold core 6, and prevents the upper lost mold white mold 10 from being scrapped due to the misalignment of the upper mold core 13 and the lower mold core 6.

[0039] like Figure 2As shown, in Example 1, since the upper parting surface 8 and the lower parting surface 9 coincide with each other, the outer edge of the upper cavity 3 is low. Since the edge of the upper cavity 3 is thin, the upper injection port 2 can only be connected with the outer circle of the upper cavity 3 near the top, resulting in a smaller local cross-sectional area of ​​the upper injection port 2, resulting in large resistance when injecting raw materials into the upper cavity 3, and in severe cases, local material shortage defects occur.

[0040] And as Figure 3 As shown, since the upper parting surface 8 is higher than the lower parting surface 9, the edge of the upper cavity 3 is higher than the bottom plate 14, so the upper injection port 2 is easy to arrange, and the phenomenon of local cross-sectional area reduction will not occur, so the raw material injection is very smooth.

[0041] The above-mentioned embodiments are described in detail and specifically, and express the preferred embodiments of the utility model. They are only used to illustrate the technical ideas and features of the utility model. The purpose is to enable technicians in this field to understand the content of the utility model and implement it accordingly, but they are not limited to the utility model. The patent scope of the utility model cannot be limited only by this embodiment. That is, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the spirit disclosed by the utility model, for researchers or technicians in this field, within the structure of the utility model, the local improvements within the system and the changes and transformations between subsystems are still within the patent scope of the utility model. At present, the technical solution of this application has been pilot-tested, that is, a small-scale experiment of the product before large-scale mass production; after the pilot test, a user survey was conducted in a small range, and the survey results showed that the user satisfaction was high; now we are preparing for the formal production of the product for industrialization, including intellectual property risk warning surveys.
