Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of casting molds, and more specifically, to a precise positioning cooling device for molds. Background Technique

[0002] With the continuous development of technology, metal die-casting molds have been widely used in industrial production. A large number of motorcycle braking metal parts have been transformed from traditional low-pressure casting and gravity casting to high-pressure casting. High-pressure die-casting has been widely used in industries such as automobiles, electronics, instrumentation, and aviation due to its advantages of high efficiency, less cutting, good surface finish, and superior mechanical properties. Its high efficiency, high quality, and ability to produce products with complex structures are very suitable for mass production of products.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventor found that: during the processing of motorcycle braking parts by traditional molds, in the areas where the molten metal needs to release more heat when changing from liquid to solid during the solidification process, generally, they are located at thicker wall thicknesses or higher temperatures. However, traditional molds often cannot accurately position the positions with thicker wall thicknesses or higher temperatures, resulting in hot spots in the positions with thicker wall thicknesses or higher temperatures, and further causing defects such as overall temperature imbalance of the casting, shrinkage porosity, shrinkage cavity, cold shut, and gas porosity. Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure is studied and improved to provide a precise positioning cooling device for molds, with the expectation of achieving a more practical value. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] 1. Technical Problems to be Solved

[0005] Aiming at the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a precise positioning cooling device for molds, which can add multiple cooling rods at the thicker wall thicknesses of the castings in the mold, so that when the molten metal changes from liquid to solid during the solidification process, the positions with thicker wall thicknesses or higher temperatures can be accurately positioned and cooled, thereby maintaining the overall temperature balance and solving the problems of shrinkage porosity, shrinkage cavity, cold shut, gas porosity and other defects in the casting caused by hot spots in the positions with thicker wall thicknesses or higher temperatures.

[0006] 2. Technical Solutions

[0007] To solve the above problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions.

[0008] A precise positioning cooling device for a mold, comprising two mold feet. Between the tops of the two mold feet, a male template is arranged.

On the sides of the male template and the female template close to each other, a male mold core and a female mold core are respectively arranged. A cavity is formed by combining the male mold core and the female mold core. Between the two mold feet, two support columns are arranged. An upper push plate and a lower push plate are slidably sleeved on the outer periphery of the support columns. At the bottom of the male template, a plurality of cylinders are installed. At the position corresponding to the cylinders at the bottom of the male mold core, a positioning hole communicating with the cavity is opened, and an extrusion pin is slidably connected inside the positioning hole. The output end of the cylinder extends into the positioning hole and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding extrusion pin. A plurality of cooling rods are inserted at the bottom of the male mold core, and the top ends of the cooling rods extend into the cavity.

[0009] Further, on the sides of the two mold feet close to each other, a plurality of support rods are fixedly connected. The top ends of the support rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower push plate.

[0010] Further, at the four corner positions of the top of the upper push plate, a first push rod is fixedly connected. The top end of the first push rod penetrates through the male template and is in contact connection with the bottom of the female template.

[0011] Further, a plurality of second push rods are fixedly connected to the top of the upper push plate. The top ends of the second push rods are in contact connection with the bottom of the male template.
