Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coated sand casting, and more specifically, to a turbine casing casting mold. Background Art

[0002] Existing turbine shell products are made of ordinary materials and simple shapes. Therefore, most foundries use manual molding methods for such products, using wooden molds or aluminum alloy molds, and using clay sand for manual filling, compaction, demoulding, and box closing. In this process, high-power electric furnaces are used to smelt molten iron. In order to reduce production costs and improve production efficiency, casting is often carried out at a temperature close to the limit state, and risers and other processes are used as little as possible.

[0003] The company currently produces a turbine shell product, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the product has an air inlet flange end, an air outlet end and a rotor connection flange end, and has several mounting bosses on its side wall. The interior is a turbine-shaped exhaust duct, which makes it difficult to dissipate heat during casting. The product wall thickness is 4mm, which is thinner than ordinary turbine shell products, and the difference with the wall thickness of the boss is greater, making it impossible to uniformly and synchronously fill and solidify. In addition, its material is heat-resistant steel, and its performance is similar to that of steel, but compared with common steel materials, the product has weak shrinkage compensation ability due to the addition of the "Nb" element.

[0004] According to the above product characteristics, the existing turbine shell casting system can no longer meet the design requirements of the product. If it is still designed according to the original process, there is a possibility of shrinkage and shrinkage holes, and it is more likely that the product will be insufficiently poured and unable to fill the mold, resulting in large-scale scrapping. And because of the characteristics of cast steel, ordinary risers cannot meet the shrinkage compensation requirements. To solve the above problems, it is necessary to first change the casting process and use coated sand casting instead of traditional clay sand manual modeling. In addition, in order to ensure product quality, it is necessary to redesign the turbine shell casting system based on the refractory properties of coated sand and the material properties of heat-resistant steel. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a turbine casing casting mold.

[0006] The turbine casing casting mold provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0012] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] The present application reduces the setting of shrinkage-feeding risers as much as possible through the rotational arrangement of multiple product parts, and reduces the filling time by setting a straight runner in the center of the product distribution, extending the bottom of the straight runner to both sides, and improving the dimensions of the straight runner and the cross runner; by separately setting a heating riser in the thick and large part of the product for shrinkage feeding, the product has better shrinkage-feeding performance, meets the customer's product quality requirements, and can smoothly and stably produce the product.
