Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model is applied to the field of casting cold-shooting core molds, and particularly relates to an adjustable core ejector tooling. Background Art

[0002] Currently, universal ejector pins are directly formed from bars, have simple structures, and have limitations in use.

[0003] Due to the irregular nature of the mold structure, the specifications and heights of the ejector pins vary greatly, making the design and production process time-consuming and prone to problems such as overproduction and omissions. Due to the high precision required for sand cores, the height of the ejector pins must be guaranteed during production.

[0004] Because the mold's dimensions are both greater than 2 meters long and wide, the ejector pin must be installed from below. This process is difficult, time-consuming, and dangerous (operators must be working from the bottom of the mold). If the ejector pin becomes worn or damaged and requires repair or replacement, it must also be removed from below, a difficult operation.

[0005] When the ejector pin wears during mold use or the mold structure is modified, causing the ejector pin height to need to be modified, the ejector pin is easily deformed during additive welding or secondary processing, making simultaneous modifications impossible and often requiring a re-manufacture. The production of the integral ejector pin requires turning a rod with a diameter larger than the maximum diameter of the ejector base. For example, if the ejector pin diameter is required to be 32mm, but its base needs to be 38mm, then the rod diameter must be at least 40mm. This requires a large amount of turning for the entire ejector pin, high raw material costs, and long heat treatment time for the rod. This results in a long ejector production cycle and high costs. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model provides an adjustable core ejector tool, which solves the problems in the prior art that ejector rods are difficult to assemble, repair and replace.

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is achieved as follows: an adjustable top core tooling, the adjustable top core tooling includes a base, a top rod, a connecting assembly, and a top plate, the top rod is movably connected to the base, the top rod can move up and down along the base, and the base and the top plate are fixedly connected through the connecting assembly.

[0008] In one embodiment, the push rod is provided with a groove, the inner wall of the groove is provided with a thread, and the groove is movably connected to the base through the thread.

[0009] In one embodiment, a thread is provided on the outer wall of the base.

[0010] In one embodiment, the push rod is provided with a groove, and the inner wall of the groove is smooth.

[0011] In one embodiment, a sleeve is provided on the base, a thread is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve, and the sleeve is threadedly connected to the base.

[0012] In one embodiment, the connecting assembly includes a baffle and bolts, and the base is fixedly mounted on the top plate through the baffle and the bolts.

[0013] This device has a simple and reliable structure and is easy to operate. It can reduce the difficulty of installing the ejector pin, improve the efficiency of installing the ejector pin, and save more than 20% of the mold assembly time. At the same time, the ejector pin is height-adjustable, which can meet the needs of a variety of ejector pins within the adjustable range, reducing the types of ejector pin designs and manufacturing specifications, reducing the difficulty and cost of manufacturing, reducing the difficulty of repairing and replacing the ejector pin, saving repair and replacement time, and improving mold maintenance efficiency. The ejector pin installation method is adjusted to be installed from top to bottom, which solves the disadvantage of the original installation from below, which has safety hazards, and saves materials: taking a 32mm diameter, 500mm long ejector pin as an example, the original manufacturing method is to manufacture the base and the ejector pin as a whole. The base has a large diameter, and the overall ejector pin needs to be machined from a rod with a diameter greater than 40mm. After the modification, the base and the ejector pin are manufactured separately, and only a rod with a diameter slightly greater than 32 is required, saving about 35% of raw materials, while also saving processing resources and time.
