Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of casting sand core components, and more particularly to a casting sand core component for manufacturing a gearbox for a high-speed railway EMU. Background Art

[0002] In existing technologies, during high-temperature casting processes, sand core components are subjected to extremely high heat loads and require timely and effective cooling to maintain their structural stability and dimensional accuracy. However, current components often lack efficient cooling mechanisms and are unable to fully cool down. This may not only cause deformation or damage to the sand core, affecting the internal structure and surface quality of the casting, but may also shorten the service life of the sand core components and increase production costs.

[0003] Secondly, existing casting sand core assemblies have significant defects in the fixing mechanism of flow rate adjustment. During the casting process, the flow rate of coolant or gas needs to be adjusted according to different casting requirements and production conditions. However, current components often use complex or bulky fixing mechanisms, making it difficult for operators to quickly release the fixed state of flow rate adjustment. This design not only reduces production flexibility and efficiency, but may also lead to the inability to adjust the flow rate in time in an emergency, affecting product quality or causing safety hazards.

[0004] Finally, when precise adjustment of the water or air flow rate is required, existing casting sand core assemblies often lack flexible and precise adjustment mechanisms. During the casting process, different stages and different parts may require different cooling intensities, and current designs can usually only provide a limited number of fixed gears or rough adjustment methods. This limitation seriously affects the optimization of the cooling effect, which may lead to insufficient cooling in some areas and excessive cooling in other areas, ultimately affecting the uniformity and quality of the casting. In addition, inaccurate flow rate adjustment may also cause waste of cooling medium, increase production costs and environmental burden. Utility Model Content
