Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of casting equipment, and in particular to an automatic casting equipment. Background Art

[0002] Automatic casting equipment is an automated production equipment in the foundry industry, which is used to automatically inject molten metal into the mold to realize the automation of the casting process.

[0003] In related technology, reference may be made to Chinese utility model patent with authorization publication number CN218109318U, which discloses an automatic casting device in the field of mold technology that addresses the low production efficiency of existing equipment. The utility model includes a frame having a mold base mounted thereon for mounting a fixed mold, a movable template mounted thereon for mounting a movable mold that mates with the fixed mold, and a first drive device mounted on the frame for driving the movable template to move the movable mold toward or away from the fixed mold.

[0004] When the above-mentioned casting equipment is demoulding the product, it uses a push rod to directly eject the product from the mold. However, since the push rod pushes the product eccentrically, the product is unevenly subjected to the force of the push rod, which can easily cause the product to deform when the push rod ejects the product. In addition, if the product falls directly on the frame after being ejected from the mold, it will collide with the frame and thus deform, making it difficult to ensure the quality of the finished product and the complete appearance of the product.

A plurality of retrieval devices 2 are provided, evenly distributed along the sides of the rotating disk 14. These retrieval devices 2 remove the product from the movable mold 12 and place it into the collection frame 16.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 Hehe Figure 2 The picking device 2 includes a picking block 21, a picking rod 22, a rotating mechanism 23, a picking suction cup 24 and a moving mechanism 25. The picking block 21 is vertically slidably set on the rotating disk 14 through the moving mechanism 25. The moving mechanism 25 includes a moving screw 26 and a moving motor 27. The moving screw 26 is rotatably installed on the rotating disk 14 and is in a vertical state. The picking block 21 is vertically slidably installed on the rotating disk 14 and is threadedly connected to the moving screw 26. The moving motor 27 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the rotating disk 14 and the output shaft is connected to the moving screw 26. The moving motor 27 is started to drive the moving screw 26 to rotate, and the rotation of the moving screw 26 drives the picking block 21 to move, thereby realizing the vertical movement of the picking block 21 by controlling the moving motor 27.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 Hehe Figure 2 , the pickup rod 22 is vertically slidably set on the pickup block 21. The top end of the pickup rod 22 extends above the pickup block 21. The top end of the pickup rod 22 is threadedly connected to the limit nut 31. The bottom end of the pickup rod 22 extends below the pickup block 21, and the pickup suction cup 24 is fixedly installed on the bottom end of the pickup rod 22. A spring 32 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the pickup block 21, and the bottom end of the spring 32 is connected to the connection between the pickup rod 22 and the pickup suction cup 24. When the upper surface of the pickup block 21 conflicts with the limit nut 31, the spring 32 is in a natural state.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 Hehe Figure 2A ventilation cavity is defined within the pickup rod 22, extending vertically through the rod. A gas source is provided on the rotating disk 14, and a ventilation tube 33 is mounted on the rotating disk 14. One end of the ventilation tube 33 is connected to the gas source, while the other end of the ventilation tube 33 is connected to the top of the pickup rod 22 and communicates with the ventilation cavity. The ventilation tube 33 inflates or deflates the pickup suction cup 24 through the ventilation cavity.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 Hehe Figure 2 The rotating mechanism 23 is mounted on the drive cylinder 13 and is used to rotate the movable mold 12. The rotating mechanism 23 includes a rotating shaft 41, a first bevel gear 42, a rotating motor 43, and a second bevel gear 44.

The rotation of the first bevel gear 42 drives the rotating shaft 41. The rotation of the rotating shaft 41 drives the movable mold 12. After the movable mold 12 rotates to a horizontal state, the moving motor 27 is activated to drive the pickup block 21 downward. The downward movement of the pickup block 21 compresses the spring 32 and drives the pickup rod 22 downward. The downward movement of the pickup rod 22 drives the pickup suction cup 24 to absorb the product. After the pickup suction cup 24 absorbs the product, the moving motor 27 is activated to drive the pickup block 21 upward. The upward movement of the pickup block 21 removes the product from the movable mold 12, thereby completing the product demolding.

[0048] The working principle of the embodiment of this application is as follows:

[0049] Since multiple picking rods 22 are provided and the picking suction cups 24 are used, the force area of ​​the picking rods 22 on the product is increased, so that the surface of the product is evenly stressed when it is taken out, and the picking suction cups 24 are flexible and in contact with the product due to their own deformable and soft characteristics, which better protects the product and ensures the overall integrity of the product when it is taken out from the movable mold 12.
