Abstract
Description
Technical field:
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of melt discharging and casting, and in particular relates to a plug loading and unloading structure for an ingot mold. Background technology:
[0002] During the industrial silicon casting process, high-temperature liquid silicon flows from the silicon bag through the chute into the ingot mold for cooling. The ingot mold structure is as follows: Figure 1 When the cooling is completed, the staff will remove the plugs in the transfer trough and place them on an iron plate of a certain thickness, then take out the silicon plate and move it to the cooling silicon area for cooling. After the surface of the ingot mold is cooled and cleaned, the two plugs are placed in the transfer trough of the ingot mold by manual transport or by forklift, and then the connection between the plugs and the transfer trough is sealed with sealing mud.
[0003] However, the above operation has the following problems: (1) After cooling, a forklift is used to remove the plug and place it on the iron sheet on the ground. However, in this process, the plug often falls to the ground, causing serious wear on the edges and corners of the plug, which not only reduces the life of the plug, but also requires more sealing mud to be applied the next time the plug is used. In addition, the inadequate sealing will cause the silicone liquid to flow out from the worn area, resulting in a waste of silicone liquid; (2) The plug is made of pure iron material and weighs about 35 kg. Therefore, it is time-consuming and laborious for personnel to move the plug to the transfer trough, and there are certain safety hazards; (3) If a forklift is used to place the plug in the transfer trough, the plug and the ingot mold often collide, and the plug cannot be placed in the transfer trough at one time and accurately. Another person is required to adjust the position of the plug, which increases the time and work intensity of this process. Utility model content:
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a plug loading and unloading structure for an ingot mold, which can reduce the wear of the plug, reduce the amount of manual labor, and shorten the operation time by rotating the plug from the outside of the ingot mold to the inside of a transfer trough according to the use status.
[0005] The utility model is implemented by the following technical solutions:
[0006] A plug loading and unloading structure for an ingot mold, comprising an ingot mold, wherein the top of both sides of the ingot mold are provided with an inverted trapezoidal transfer trough, and each of the transfer troughs is provided with a plug; a connecting block is fixed to the outer surface of the plug, and a connecting cylinder is rotatably connected inside the connecting block; a receiving plate is fixed to the outer surface of the ingot mold on one side of the transfer trough, and a fixing sleeve of a rotating mechanism is fixed to the outer surface of the ingot mold between the receiving plate and the transfer trough, and the connecting handle of the rotating mechanism is threadedly connected to the connecting cylinder. After the connecting cylinder and the fixing sleeve are connected together, the plug can be moved between the transfer trough and the receiving plate under the action of the rotating mechanism. After cooling is completed, the plug can be directly turned away without causing wear; after the ingot mold is cleaned, the plug can be turned back without colliding with the ingot mold, and the process of manual or forklift handling is reduced, saving time and labor.
[0007] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism comprises the fixed sleeve, the connecting handle, and the rotating shaft; the fixed sleeve comprises an upper sleeve and a lower sleeve; the upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft are respectively inserted into the upper sleeve and the lower sleeve; one end of the connecting handle away from the connecting sleeve is fixed at the center of the rotating shaft. The connecting handle is rotatably connected in the fixed sleeve, and the rotating shaft rotates around the rotating shaft.
[0008] Furthermore, a heat-insulating sleeve is provided on the outer surface of the portion of the connecting handle close to the rotating shaft to prevent workers from being burned by high temperature when turning the connecting handle.
[0009] Furthermore, the outer diameters of the two ends of the connecting tube are larger than the outer diameter of the portion of the connecting tube located inside the connecting block, so that the connecting tube can rotate inside the connecting block without falling off.
[0010] Preferably, each of the plugs includes an upper plug and a lower plug, the bottom surface of the upper plug is flush with the top surface of the lower plug; a connecting block is fixed to the outer surface of each of the upper plug and the lower plug, each of the connecting blocks is correspondingly provided with a rotating mechanism and a receiving plate; the top surface of the receiving plate is flush with the bottom surface of the upper plug or the lower plug. Dividing a plug into two parts disperses the weight of the plug and makes the rotating mechanism more durable.
[0011] Beneficial effects:
[0012] The utility model provides a plug loading and unloading structure for an ingot mold, which rotates the plug through a rotating mechanism; before casting, by rotating the connecting handle, the plug can be directly placed in the transfer groove, avoiding the problem of inaccurate position adjustment during the forklift process and reducing the labor intensity of personnel; after the silicon plate cools, by rotating the connecting handle, the plug can be placed on the receiving plate fixed on the outer surface of the ingot mold, avoiding the wear caused by placing the ingot mold on the ground and improving the service life of the ingot mold.
