Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of casting slag removal, in particular to a slag removal device. Background Art

[0002] The slag bag in die casting is a design in the product molding process, which can effectively improve the quality of the casting. The slag bag connected to the casting needs to be removed when the casting is processed in the next step after molding. Specifically, when the die casting is molded, the casting liquid remaining in the flow channel will form a slag bag after cooling. The slag bag is connected to the molded part. The slag bag needs to be removed before the casting is subjected to surface treatment such as deburring.

[0003] Traditionally, the slag removal process on some production lines relies on operators to knock off the slag manually. The entire slag removal process is inefficient and requires specific operating techniques to ensure that the product is not damaged. Especially when removing slag bags with many circumferential connection points with the casting, it is generally necessary to cut or knock off the slag bags in multiple times, which reduces the efficiency of the casting production process.

[0004] In addition, when the slag bag is above or below the epitaxial structure of the casting and the distance between the two is close, the operator is very likely to damage the epitaxial structure when removing the slag bag.

[0005] Therefore, the above problems need to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content

[0035] Before explaining any embodiments of the present application in detail, it should be understood that the present application is not limited to the structural details and component arrangements set forth in the following description or shown in the above drawings.

[0036] In the present application, the terms "comprising", "including", "having" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising that element.

[0037] In the present application, the term "and / or" is a correlative relationship describing associated objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, a centrifugal vortex magnetic pump and / or a centrifugal vortex magnetic pump can represent: the sole existence of a centrifugal vortex magnetic pump, the simultaneous existence of a centrifugal vortex magnetic pump and a centrifugal vortex magnetic pump, and the sole existence of a centrifugal vortex magnetic pump. Additionally, in the present application, the character " / " generally represents an "and / or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0038] In this application, the terms "connected", "combined", "coupled", and "installed" can be direct connections, combinations, couplings, or installations, or indirect connections, combinations, couplings, or installations. For example, a direct connection means that two parts or components are connected together without an intermediate member, and an indirect connection means that two parts or components are respectively connected to at least one intermediate member, and these two parts or components are connected through the intermediate member. In addition, "connected" and "coupled" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections or couplings, and can include electrical connections or couplings.

[0039] In this application, those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that relative terms used in combination with a quantity or condition (e.g., "about", "approximately", "substantially", etc.) are intended to include the recited value and have the meaning indicated by the context. For example, such relative terms include at least the degree of error associated with the measurement of a particular value, tolerances resulting from manufacturing, assembly, use in relation to a particular value, etc. Such terms should also be considered to disclose a range defined by the absolute values of two endpoints. A relative term may refer to plus or minus a certain percentage (e.g., 1%, 5%, 10% or more) of the indicated value. A numerical value that does not employ a relative term should also be disclosed as a particular value with a tolerance. In addition, when "substantially" expresses a relative angular positional relationship (e.g., substantially parallel, substantially perpendicular), it may refer to plus or minus a certain number of degrees (e.g., 1 degree, 5 degrees, 10 degrees or more) from the indicated angle.

[0040] In this application, those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the functions performed by a component can be performed by one component, multiple components, one part, or multiple parts. Similarly, the functions performed by a part can also be performed by one part, one component, or a combination of multiple parts.

[0041] In this application, the directional terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", etc. are described based on the orientation and positional relationship shown in the drawings, and should not be construed as a limitation on the embodiments of this application. In addition, in the context, it should also be understood that when it is mentioned that one element is connected "above" or "below" another element, it can not only be directly connected "above" or "below" another element, but also be indirectly connected "above" or "below" another element through an intermediate element. It should also be understood that the directional terms such as the upper side, lower side, left side, right side, front side, rear side, etc. not only represent the positive direction, but can also be understood as the side direction. For example, the lower side can include directly below, lower left, lower right, lower front, and lower rear, etc.

[0042] When the slag ladle is above or below the extension structure of the casting, and the distance between them is relatively close, therefore, when the operator removes the slag ladle, it is very easy to damage the casting body or the extension structure.

[0043] Based on the above, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment, a slag bag removing device is proposed, which is used to remove the slag bag located above or below the epitaxial structure of the casting 100. It includes a frame 1, a clamping mechanism 3 and a lifting mechanism 4. The clamping mechanism 3 includes clamping claws 31, a hydraulic cylinder 32 and a connecting seat 33. The clamping claws 31 and the hydraulic cylinder 32 are both rotatably arranged at the bottom of the connecting seat 33, and the driving end of the hydraulic cylinder 32 is rotatably connected to the end of the clamping claw 31 away from the connecting seat 33, so as to push the clamping claw 31 to rotate between the epitaxial structure and the slag bag; the lifting mechanism 4 is arranged on the frame 1, and the lifting end of the lifting mechanism 4 is connected to the connecting seat 33 to drive the clamping claw 31 to move along the axial direction of the casting 100.

[0044] It can be understood that under the action of the hydraulic cylinder 32, the clamping claw 31 can move between the slag bag and the epitaxial structure, and then under the action of the lifting mechanism 4, the clamping claw 31 can be driven to remove the slag bag. With such a setting, not only can the interference between the clamping claw 31 and the epitaxial structure of the casting 100 be avoided during the removal of the slag bag, but also the removal efficiency of the slag bag can be improved.

[0045] Specifically, the clamping claw 31 includes a connecting portion 311 and a claw portion 312 which are perpendicularly connected. The end of the connecting portion 311 away from the claw portion 312 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting seat 33; the hydraulic cylinder 32 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the connecting seat 33. It can be understood that the vertically arranged connecting portion 311 and claw portion 312 can improve the stability during the removal of the slag bag, thereby prolonging the service life of the clamping claw 31.

[0046] For some castings 100 with a relatively long epitaxial structure, during the rotation of the clamping claw 31, the connecting portion 311 may interfere with the epitaxial structure. Therefore, in this embodiment, an avoidance hole 3111 for avoiding the epitaxial structure of the casting 100 is formed on the connecting portion 311.

[0047] Furthermore, one clamping claw 31 and the hydraulic cylinder 32 form a set of removal structures. The clamping mechanism 3 includes multiple sets of removal structures, and the multiple claw portions 312 facing the side wall of the casting 100 can be assembled into a ring shape adapted to the outer peripheral wall of the casting 100. With such a setting, it is possible to avoid adjusting the position of the casting 100 during the slag bag removal process, so as to facilitate the removal of slag bags at different positions, thereby improving the adaptability of the slag bag removing device.

[0048] The slag bag removing device further includes a clamping mechanism 2 for fixing the casting 100, and the clamping mechanism 2 is arranged on the frame 1. The provided clamping mechanism 2 can clamp and fix the casting 100 to prevent the casting 100 from shaking during the slag bag removal process, thereby further avoiding damage to the casting 100 during the slag bag removal process.

[0049] In this embodiment, the clamping mechanism 2 includes a support base 21 and a downward pressing driving member 22. The support base 21 is disposed at the bottom of the frame 1 and is used to carry the casting 100. The downward pressing driving member 22 is disposed on the connecting seat 33, and the driving end of the downward pressing driving member 22 can be kept in contact with the top end of the casting 100, and the downward pressing driving member 22 is configured to push against the casting 100. In practical applications, after an external manipulator places the casting 100 on the support base 21, the downward pressing driving member 22 can apply a pushing force to the casting 100 so that the casting 100 is clamped between the two, thereby preventing the casting 100 from shaking during the subsequent removal of the slag package. Among them, the downward pressing driving member 22 is preferably an existing linear driving structure such as a hydraulic cylinder, so no specific limitation is made here.

[0050] In addition, a positioning portion for positioning the casting 100 is provided on the support base 21. The positioning portion is preferably a positioning structure such as a positioning groove adapted to the casting 100, which will not be elaborated here.

[0051] The lifting mechanism 4 is disposed at the top of the frame 1, and the driving end of the lifting mechanism 4 is connected to the connecting seat 33 to drive the connecting seat 33 to move up and down. In practical applications, under the action of the lifting mechanism 4, the connecting seat 33 can be driven to move, and further, a plurality of removing structures can be driven to move to the required height. When the gripper 31 rotates to between the outer extension structure and the slag package, the slag package can be removed under the action of the lifting mechanism 4.

[0052] After the casting 100 is formed, there is an upper exhaust plate outside for discharging gas during the casting process, and the upper exhaust plate is likely to interfere with the connecting portion 311. Therefore, the upper exhaust plate needs to be removed before removing the slag package.

[0053] Specifically, the slag package removing device further includes a pneumatic shear 5, and the pneumatic shear 5 is disposed on the frame 1. In practical applications, after an external manipulator grabs the casting 100 and moves it to the position of the pneumatic shear 5, the upper exhaust plate suitable for shearing outside the casting 100 is sheared off by the pneumatic shear 5, thereby further improving the efficiency of removing the slag package.

[0054] In this embodiment, the slag package removing device further includes a silo 6, and the silo 6 is disposed at the bottom of the frame 1, and the clamping mechanism 2 is mounted at the opening of the silo 6. In practical applications, a guiding opening is provided on the frame 1, and the guiding opening is of a wide-mouth type. After the slag package is removed and falls, it enters the silo 6 through the guiding opening. After the slag packages accumulate to a certain extent, the operator replaces the silo 6.

[0055] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present utility model. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
