Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ingot shunting, in particular to an ingot shunting device. Background Art

[0002] With the development of modern industry, the casting process is increasingly widely used in many fields such as aerospace, automobile manufacturing, and mechanical structural parts. Among them, as a key equipment in the casting process, the performance of the ingot shunting device directly affects the quality and production efficiency of castings. Traditional ingot shunting devices often have many deficiencies in structural design.

[0003] At present, the molten aluminum is directly shunted from the runner into two groups of water distributors, resulting in uneven liquid outlet speeds of the two water distributors and different running speeds of the two ingot lines. During actual operation, it is necessary to adjust the running speed of the ingot line according to the liquid outlet speed of the water distributor, resulting in inconsistent sizes of aluminum ingots and affecting the ingot casting speed. In addition, since the molten aluminum contains certain impurities and oxides, after long-term use, the inside of the shunt nozzle is likely to be blocked or the flow is not smooth enough. It is difficult for the shunting devices in the prior art to clean and maintain the shunt nozzle. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an ingot shunting device, which has the characteristics of evenly flowing out the molten aluminum to the water distributor and being able to clean and dredge the shunt nozzle.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] An ingot shunting device includes a mounting frame. The upper end of the mounting frame is fixedly connected with a shunt groove. The middle part of the mounting frame is fixedly connected with two inclined shunt channels. One end of the shunt channel is located below the shunt groove. The left and right ends of the upper surface of the mounting frame are respectively provided with conversion mechanisms. The conversion mechanism includes a water distributor. The water distributor is arranged on the mounting frame. One end of the water distributor is fixedly connected with a plurality of shunt nozzles obliquely. The rear end of the water distributor is communicated with the outlet of the shunt channel;

[0007] A cleaning mechanism corresponds to the water distributor. The cleaning mechanism includes a fixed frame. The fixed frame is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame. The upper end of the fixed frame is fixedly connected with a mounting rod. A slider is slidably connected inside the mounting rod. A cleaning motor is fixedly installed at the lower end of the slider. The output end of the cleaning motor is fixedly connected with a wire brush.

[0008] Further, a limiting groove is opened on the lower surface of the mounting rod. Part of the slider extends out of the mounting rod from the limiting groove and is fixedly connected with the cleaning motor.

[0009] Further, a screw rod is rotatably connected inside the mounting rod through a bearing. The slider is threadedly connected to the screw rod. A moving motor is fixedly installed on the outer side of the mounting rod, and the output end of the moving motor is fixedly connected to the screw rod.

[0010] Further, the conversion mechanism further includes a transmission shaft. A bearing seat is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mounting frame. The transmission shaft is rotatably connected to the bearing seat. One end of the transmission shaft is fixedly connected to the water distributor, and the other end is connected to a driving motor.

[0011] Further, a flow dividing plate is fixedly connected to the end of the flow dividing groove. The flow dividing plate includes two arc-shaped guiding surfaces that are mirror-symmetrical. A flow dividing tip is formed at the connection of the two arc-shaped guiding surfaces; the flow dividing tip is located at the center of the flow dividing groove.

[0012] Further, two liquid outlet flow grooves are provided at the end of the flow dividing groove. One end of the arc-shaped guiding surface extends into the liquid outlet flow groove. A flow dividing port is opened at the end of the liquid outlet flow groove, and the shape of the flow dividing port is funnel-shaped.

[0013] Further, one end of the flow dividing channel is closed; the other end is fixedly connected to a buffer groove. A liquid outlet is fixedly connected to the outside of the buffer groove, and the end of the liquid outlet away from the buffer groove extends into the water distributor.

[0014] The technical solution provided by the present utility model may include the following beneficial effects:

[0015] By providing a cleaning mechanism, the slider drives the cleaning motor to move, so that the wire brush is moved into the inside of the flow dividing nozzle for cleaning, dredging the used flow dividing nozzle. In this way, when switching the flow dividing nozzle each time, the wire brush can clean the previous set of flow dividing nozzles, so that each set of flow dividing nozzles always remains unblocked, which is beneficial to the smooth outflow of the molten aluminum.

[0016] By providing a flow dividing plate inside the flow dividing groove, the molten aluminum can be evenly divided into two groups after entering the flow dividing groove and enter the flow dividing channel. The buffer groove can buffer the molten aluminum before it flows to the water distributor, so that the molten aluminum can flow into the inside of the water distributor evenly from the buffer groove, and then flow out of the two water distributors evenly to the ingot casting line to ensure the ingot casting speed.

[0017] By providing a conversion mechanism, when the flow dividing nozzle is blocked, it can be rotated and converted, so that the next set of flow dividing nozzles is rotated to the lower end of the water distributor. Through the conversion of multiple sets of flow dividing nozzles, the flow dividing nozzles can always remain unblocked. Description of the Drawings

[0030] The following will describe, in conjunction with Figures 1 to 4 , the aluminum liquid of the embodiment of the present utility model flowing out evenly to the water distributor, and being able to clean and dredge the flow dividing nozzles.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, a ingot flow dividing device includes a mounting frame 1. The upper end of the mounting frame 1 is fixedly connected with a flow dividing groove 101. The middle part of the mounting frame 1 is fixedly connected with two inclined flow dividing channels 104. One end of the flow dividing channel 104 is located below the flow dividing groove 101. The left and right ends of the upper surface of the mounting frame 1 are respectively provided with conversion mechanisms 2. The conversion mechanism 2 includes a water distributor 202. The water distributor 202 is arranged on the mounting frame 1. One end of the water distributor 202 is fixedly connected with a plurality of flow dividing nozzles 203 in an inclined manner. The rear end of the water distributor 202 is communicated with the outlet of the flow dividing channel 104;

[0032] A cleaning mechanism 3 corresponds to the water distributor 202. The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a fixing frame 308. The fixing frame 308 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame 1. The upper end of the fixing frame 308 is fixedly connected with a mounting rod 301. A slider 304 is slidably connected inside the mounting rod 301. The lower end of the slider 304 is fixedly installed with a cleaning motor 306. The output end of the cleaning motor 306 is fixedly connected with a wire brush 307.

[0033] Specifically, after the aluminum liquid is melted from the melting furnace, it flows into the flow dividing groove 101 through the flow channel, and the aluminum liquid in the flow dividing groove 101 is divided into two groups and flows into the interior of the flow dividing channels 104, so that the aluminum liquid in the flow dividing channels 104 flows into the interior of the water distributor 202 evenly, and flows into the ingot mold through the flow dividing nozzles 203 at the lower end of the water distributor 202. If there are too many impurities in the flow dividing nozzles 203, the water distributor 202 rotates to switch to another group of flow dividing nozzles 203. The slider 304 can drive the cleaning motor 306 to move. The cleaning motor 306 is electrically connected to an external power source. The cleaning motor 306 is started and can drive the wire brush 307 to rotate, and the wire brush 307 is moved to the interior of the flow dividing nozzle 203, thereby cleaning the flow dividing nozzle 203.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, a limiting groove 302 is formed on the lower surface of the mounting rod 301. A part of the slider 304 extends out of the mounting rod 301 from the limiting groove 302 and is fixedly connected with the cleaning motor 306.

[0035] Inside the mounting rod 301, a screw rod 303 is rotatably connected through a bearing. The slider 304 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 303. A moving motor 305 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the mounting rod 301, and the output end of the moving motor 305 is fixedly connected to the screw rod 303.

[0036] Specifically, the moving motor 305 is electrically connected to an external power source. When the moving motor 305 is started, it can drive the screw rod 303 to rotate, thereby driving the slider 304 to move the cleaning motor 306, so as to move the wire brush 307 into the inside of the diverter nozzle 203 for cleaning, and dredge and clean the previous set of diverter nozzles 203. In this way, when switching the diverter nozzles 203 each time, the next set of diverter nozzles 203 can always remain unobstructed, which is beneficial to the smooth flow of the molten aluminum.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the conversion mechanism 2 further includes a transmission shaft 201. A bearing seat 107 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mounting bracket 1. The transmission shaft 201 is rotatably connected to the bearing seat 107. One end of the transmission shaft 201 is fixedly connected to the water distributor 202, and the other end is connected to a driving motor 204.

[0038] A diverter plate 102 is fixedly connected to the end of the diversion groove 101. The diverter plate 102 includes two arc-shaped guiding surfaces that are mirror-symmetrical. The connection part of the two arc-shaped guiding surfaces forms a diversion tip; the diversion tip is located at the center of the diversion groove 101.

[0039] Specifically, the driving motor 204 is electrically connected to an external power source. The driving motor 204 can drive the transmission shaft 201 to rotate, thereby driving the water distributor 202 to rotate to switch the diverter nozzles 203.

[0040] Please refer to Figures 2-3 As shown, two liquid outlet channels are provided at the end of the diversion groove 101. One end of the arc-shaped guiding surface extends into the liquid outlet channel. A diversion port 103 is opened at the end of the liquid outlet channel, and the shape of the diversion port 103 is funnel-shaped.

[0041] One end of the diversion channel 104 is closed; the other end is fixedly connected to a buffer groove 105. An outlet port 106 is fixedly connected to the outside of the buffer groove 105, and the end of the outlet port 106 away from the buffer groove 105 extends into the inside of the water distributor 202.

[0042] Specifically, through the diverter plate 102, the molten aluminum can be evenly divided into two groups after entering the diversion groove 101 and enter the diversion channel 104, and enter the inside of the water distributor 202 through the buffer groove 105 and the outlet port 106. The buffer groove 105 can buffer the molten aluminum before it flows to the water distributor 202, so that the molten aluminum can flow evenly into the inside of the water distributor 202 from the buffer groove 105, and thus flow out evenly from the water distributor 202 to the ingot casting line.

[0043] According to the flow dividing groove 101 of the embodiment of the present utility model, after the molten aluminum enters the flow dividing groove 101, it is evenly divided into two groups by the flow dividing plate 102 and enters the flow dividing channel 104. After being buffered by the buffer groove 105, it enters the inside of the water distributor 202 evenly through the liquid outlet 106. When the flow out of the flow dividing nozzle 203 is not smooth enough, the driving motor 204 drives the transmission shaft 201 to rotate, and drives the water distributor 202 to rotate to switch the flow dividing nozzle 203. After that, the moving motor 305 starts to drive the screw 303 to rotate, and then drives the slider 304 to move the cleaning motor 306, so as to move the wire brush 307 into the inside of the flow dividing nozzle 203 for cleaning, and dredge and clean the previous group of flow dividing nozzles 203. Other components and operations are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described in detail here.

In this specification, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0045] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
