Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of investment casting, and particularly relates to a wax injection device. Background Art
[0002] Investment casting, also known as precision casting or the lost-wax process, is a precision casting process. In investment casting, first, a wax model of the desired casting is made. Subsequently, a refractory material is applied to the outer layer of the wax mold to form a clay shell. After the clay shell dries, the wax mold is melted and drained by heating to form a cavity for the casting. Then, molten metal is poured into the cavity. After cooling and solidifying, the casting is taken out and cleaned to obtain the finished product. When making the wax mold, a cavity is prepared through ordinary upper and lower mold dies, and then wax needs to be injected into the cavity to make the wax mold. The existing wax injection devices inject wax by manually aligning the wax injection heads with the molds one by one, which has low efficiency and cannot accurately control the wax injection volume during the wax injection process, causing the paraffin to flow out of the mold and resulting in waste of paraffin. For this reason, a wax injection device is proposed.

[0024] Please refer to again Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a wax injection mechanism 5 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the first positioning frame 3, the wax injection mechanism 5 includes a wax injection cylinder 501 fixed on the first positioning frame 3, a piston 502 is movably installed in the wax injection cylinder 501, a wax inlet 505 and a wax outlet 506 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the wax injection cylinder 501, check valves 507 are arranged in both the wax inlet 505 and the wax outlet 506, the wax injection mechanism 5 further includes a drive push rod 503 fixed on the piston 502, and a movable chamber 504 is opened at the upper end of the drive push rod 503.
[0025] Specifically, the one-way valve 507 can restrict the flow direction of the paraffin wax, and the driving push rod 503 can move up and down. After the driving push rod 503 moves upward, it will drive the piston 502 to move upward, thereby sucking the paraffin wax into the wax injection cylinder 501. After the driving push rod 503 moves downward, it will drive the piston 502 to move downward, thereby injecting the paraffin wax in the wax injection cylinder 501 into the mold instead of manual operation, realizing automatic wax injection. Moreover, the volume of the wax injection cylinder 501 is constant, which can ensure that the volume of the paraffin wax injected each time is the same, realizing quantitative wax injection.
[0026] Please refer to again Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown in, a driving assembly 6 is connected to the second positioning frame 4. The driving assembly 6 includes a driving cylinder 601 fixed to the second positioning frame 4. A lifting column 602 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the driving cylinder 601. A cross beam frame 605 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the lifting column 602. A positioning sleeve 603 is provided on the cross beam frame 605.

A limit cap 608 is provided at the lower end of the lifting column 602, and the lifting column 602 is restricted to move inside the movable chamber 504 through the limit cap 608.
[0027] Specifically, during the downward movement of the positioning sleeve 603, the spring 607 will be compressed. The driving cylinder 601 can drive the piston 502 to move up and down, thereby realizing wax injection. Moreover, the driving cylinder 601 can drive the lifting column 602 to move downward. After the lifting column 602 moves downward, it will drive the cross beam frame 605 to move downward.

[0028] Working principle: In actual use, first use the conveyor belt 2 to transport the mold into the first positioning frame 3, and align the wax outlet 506 with the gate on the mold. After the wax outlet 506 is aligned with the gate on the mold, the driving cylinder 601 can be started. After starting the driving cylinder 601, it will drive the lifting column 602 to move downward. After the lifting column 602 moves downward, it will drive the cross beam frame 605 to move downward. After the cross beam frame 605 moves downward, it will drive the wax injection head 606 to move downward, so that the wax injection head 606 is inserted into the gate on the mold. After the wax injection head 606 is inserted into the gate on the mold, the lifting column 602 can be controlled to continue moving downward. After the lifting column 602 continues to move downward, it will abut against the bottom of the movable chamber 504, thereby pushing the driving push rod 503 to move downward. After the driving push rod 503 moves downward, it will drive the piston 502 to move downward, so as to inject the paraffin in the wax injection cylinder 501 into the mold. After that, the driving cylinder 601 can be retracted. After retracting the driving cylinder 601, it will drive the driving push rod 503 and the cross beam frame 605 to move upward in sequence. After the driving push rod 503 moves upward, it will drive the piston 502 to move upward, so as to suck the paraffin into the wax injection cylinder 501. After the cross beam frame 605 moves upward, the wax injection head 606 will leave the gate on the mold. After the wax injection head 606 leaves the gate on the mold, the cast wax mold can be transported out by the conveyor belt 2 to realize the automatic casting of the wax mold.
