[0002] Centrifugal casting is a technique and method in which liquid metal is poured into a high-speed rotating mold, causing the molten metal to undergo centrifugal motion, filling the mold and forming the casting. When the centrifuge reaches a certain speed, molten steel is poured into the mold cavity along the runner. When the molten steel contacts the bottom cover of the mold cavity, the centrifugal force causes the molten steel to be thrown away in a parabolic pattern, forming the casting according to the dimensions of the cold mold cavity.

[0047] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the vertical centrifuge safety device provided by the utility model is now described. The vertical centrifuge safety device includes a fixed base 1, a protective cover 2 and a locking assembly 3. The fixed base 1 is fixed to the ground, and the fixed base 1 is a circular ring component; the protective cover 2 is covered on the top of the fixed base 1 and blocks the inner ring of the fixed base 1. The protective cover 2 is used to shield the top of the centrifuge, and the protective cover 2 has a pouring hole 22 for avoiding the pouring barrel; the locking assembly 3 includes a first lock and a second lock that can lock each other, the first lock is connected to the protective cover 2, and the second lock is connected to the fixed base 1.
[0048] It should be noted that after the first lock and the second lock are connected to each other, the protective cover 2 is limited in the up and down directions to prevent the protective cover 2 from being separated from the fixing base 1 and always remain relatively fixed to the ground.
[0049] Compared with the prior art, the vertical centrifuge safety device provided in this embodiment has a fixing base 1 connected to the protective cover 2 arranged on the ground, the protective cover 2 covers the top of the centrifuge, the first lock in the locking assembly 3 is connected to the fixing base 1, and the second lock is connected to the protective cover 2. The first lock and the second lock are connected to fix the protective cover 2 on the fixing base 1, thereby improving the working stability of the protective cover 2. The protective cover 2 will not be thrown out when subjected to force, thereby ensuring the molding quality of the casting and increasing work safety. When the cold mold is damaged or thrown out, the molten steel will be blocked by the protective cover 2 under the protective cover 2, posing no threat to employees, thereby increasing work safety.
[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The protective cover 2 is provided with a socket 21 that passes through it from top to bottom, and the locking assembly 3 includes a connecting column 31 and a connecting rod 32. The connecting column 31 is fixed to the fixing base 1 and plugged into the socket 21. The top of the connecting column 31 protrudes from the socket 21. A through fixing hole 311 is formed on the top of the connecting column 31. The axis of the fixing hole 311 is perpendicular to the axis of the connecting column 31. The connecting column 31 forms a second lock; the connecting rod 32 is slidably provided on the top of the protective cover 2, and the connecting rod 32 can approach or move away from the fixing hole 311 along the opening direction of the fixing hole 311. The connecting rod 32 can be plugged into the fixing hole 311 to limit the displacement of the protective cover 2 in the up and down directions. The connecting rod 32 forms a first lock.
[0051] As an embodiment of the connection between the connecting column 31 and the fixing base 1 , a screw hole corresponding to the connecting column 31 is provided on the fixing base 1 , an external thread is provided at the bottom of the connecting column 31 , and the connecting column and the fixing base 1 are screwed together.
[0052] As another embodiment of the connection between the connecting column 31 and the fixing base 1 , the connecting column 31 is welded to the fixing base 1 .
[0053] In specific implementation, a sliding protrusion is provided on the protective cover 2, and a sliding channel is formed inside the sliding protrusion. The connecting rod 32 is slidably arranged in the sliding channel. When the connecting column 31 passes through the fixing hole 311, the connecting rod 32 slides out, so that the connecting rod 32 is plugged into the fixing hole 311.
[0054] The locking assembly 3 provided in this embodiment has two components with a simple structure. The connecting column 31 is fixed on the fixing base 1, and the connecting column 31 is plugged into the socket 21 to circumferentially position the protective cover 2 to prevent the protective cover 2 from moving or rotating in the circumferential direction due to impact; the top of the connecting column 31 is plugged into the connecting rod 32, and the connecting rod 32 is located above the protective cover 2 to limit the upper and lower positions of the protective cover 2 to prevent the protective cover 2 from moving in the axial direction. The connecting column 31 and the connecting rod 32 cooperate to limit the protective cover 2 in all directions, thereby improving the connection strength between the protective cover 2 and the fixing base 1 and ensuring the working stability of the protective cover 2.
[0055] In some embodiments, multiple sockets 21 are provided along the circumference of the protective cover 2, and multiple connecting posts 31 and connecting rods 32 are provided corresponding to the sockets 21. Providing multiple sockets 21 allows for multi-point fixation of the protective cover 2, improving connection strength, distributing the load on each locking assembly 3, and extending the service life of the locking assembly 3 as a whole.
[0056] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The connecting rod 32 is a wedge-shaped rod that is larger inside and smaller outside. The wedge-shaped rod shape can improve the connection strength between the connecting rod 32 and the fixing hole 311. As the connecting rod 32 gradually passes through the fixing hole 311, the connection strength with the fixing hole 311 is gradually increased. The connecting rod 32 and the connecting column 31 will not easily separate, thereby improving the working stability of the protective cover 2.
[0057] It should be noted that the outer side is the end of the connecting rod 32 facing the fixing hole 311 , and the inner side is the end of the connecting rod 32 away from the fixing block 311 .
[0058] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 A pad 4 is provided between the connecting rod 32 and the protective cover 2. The pad 4 can reduce the pressure of the connecting rod 32 on the protective cover 2, preventing the protective cover 2 or the connecting rod 32 from deforming when the protective cover 2 is impacted by centrifugal force. The pad 4 can increase the contact area and protect the protective cover 2 and the connecting rod 32.
[0059] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The bottom of the protective cover 2 is provided with a shielding ring 23 corresponding to the pouring hole 22. The shielding ring 23 can shield the molten steel and prevent the molten steel from being thrown out from the pouring hole 22.
[0060] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 There are multiple locking assemblies 3, which are arranged along the circumference of the protective cover 2. The locking assemblies 3 include a female buckle 33, a male buckle 34, and a hot melt strip 35. The female buckle 33 is arranged on the outer periphery of the protective cover 2. The bottom end of the female buckle 33 has two first arms 331 arranged at an angle. The inner sides of the ends of the two first arms 331 respectively form anti-retraction hooks 332. A connecting space is formed between the two first arms 331. The female buckle 33 forms a first lock. The male buckle 34 is arranged on the fixing base 1. The top of the male buckle 34 is provided with two second arms 341 distributed at an angle. The two second arms 341 cooperate with the male buckle 34 to form an arrow structure. The arrow structure extends into the connecting space and is buckled with the anti-retraction hook 332. The male buckle 34 forms a second lock; the hot melt strip 35 is filled in the connecting space.
[0061] It should be noted that the hot melt strip 35 melts when heated and has strong plasticity.
[0062] This embodiment provides another implementation method of the locking assembly 3, in which the male buckle 34 and the female buckle 33 are buckled with each other. Through the buckling of the arrow structure and the anti-barb 332, the protective cover 2 is limited up and down, thereby improving the connection strength between the protective cover 2 and the fixing base 1. The hot melt strip 35 is hot-melted to fill the gap between the male buckle 34 and the female buckle 33, thereby further improving the connection strength between the male buckle 34 and the female buckle 33 and ensuring the connection strength between the protective cover 2 and the fixing base 1.
[0063] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The inner ring of the fixing base 1 is formed with a stepped groove 11, and the protective cover 2 is plugged into the stepped groove 11. The setting of the stepped groove 11 can limit the protective cover 2 in the circumferential direction and improve the connection strength between the protective cover 2 and the fixing base 1.
[0064] Based on the same inventive concept, see Figure 1 The present application further provides a vertical centrifuge, comprising a centrifugal pit, a centrifuge body 5, a vertical centrifuge safety device as described in any of the above embodiments, and a casting drum 6. The centrifugal pit is recessed in the ground; the centrifuge body 5 is disposed within the centrifugal pit, with the bottom of the centrifuge body 5 lower than the top of the centrifugal pit; the vertical centrifuge safety device seals the top opening of the centrifugal pit; the bottom of the casting drum 6 passes through the protective cover 2 of the vertical centrifuge safety device, and the casting drum 6 is used to supply molten steel to the centrifuge body 5.
[0065] Compared with the prior art, the vertical centrifuge provided in this embodiment has a fixing base 1 connected to the protective cover 2 set on the ground, the protective cover 2 covers the top of the centrifuge, the first lock in the locking assembly 3 is connected to the fixing base 1, and the second lock is connected to the protective cover 2. The first lock and the second lock are connected to fix the protective cover 2 on the fixing base 1, thereby improving the working stability of the protective cover 2. The protective cover 2 will not be thrown out when subjected to force, thereby ensuring the molding quality of the casting and increasing work safety; when the cold mold is damaged or thrown out, the molten steel will be blocked under the protective cover 2 by the protective cover 2, which will not pose a threat to employees and improve work safety; in the vertical centrifuge of the present application, the protective cover 2 is relatively fixed to the ground. In the event of a mechanical failure, the high-temperature molten steel is completely blocked by the protective cover 2 and will not be thrown out, thereby greatly reducing the loss cost, avoiding injury from the high-temperature molten steel, and improving the safety of use.
[0066] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The bottom of the base of the vertical centrifuge safety device is provided with a pin 12, which is inserted and fixed to the ground. The bottom of the pin 12 is a pointed cone, which can improve the grip ability and improve the connection strength between the fixed base 1 and the ground.
