Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lower cores for ventilated disc casting, in particular to a lower core cover structure for ventilated disc casting. Background Art
[0002] The ventilated disc is a brake component for automobiles. It has many ventilation mechanisms on the circumference that lead to the center of the circle. The centrifugal force generated by the car during driving can cause air convection, and the air passes through the ventilation mechanisms on the ventilated disc to achieve the purpose of heat dissipation. Ventilated discs are mostly made of gray cast iron and produced by casting vertical lines. When producing ventilated discs on the vertical molding line, it is necessary to use a robot and a lower core cover to lower the sand core into the mold cavity. A suction negative pressure port is set at the part of the lower core cover corresponding to the large outer circle of the sand core, that is, corresponding to the outside of the ventilation mechanism. By forming a negative pressure environment, the sand core is adsorbed on the lower core cover during the core setting process, thereby preventing the sand core from falling. However, the diameters of different types of sand cores are different, resulting in the inability to standardize the lower core cover.
[0003] The production of the lower core cover is troublesome, with a long process cycle and high cost. At the same time, the lower core covers used by different models of ventilation discs are of different models and sizes. If each model of ventilation disc is made with a matching lower core cover, there will be too many types of lower core covers, which will increase the cost, increase the number of tooling changes, and increase the difficulty of tooling inventory and warehouse management. At the same time, in the process of using a robot to lower the core, there are problems such as the sand core not being able to be lowered into place and the positioning being inaccurate, which will cause the sand core to collide and fall off.

[0016] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further technical solution is that the sealing positioning member is easily fixed by engaging the positioning block with the second positioning groove.
[0017] Furthermore, a limiting boss is provided at the connection between the positioning block and the sealing positioning member.
[0018] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further technical solution is that, by providing the limiting boss, the sealing positioning member is further ensured to be in a fixed position, thereby avoiding deviation during the core setting process.
[0019] Furthermore, the sealing positioning member and the positioning block are both hollow, and the first end is connected to the base plate via a fastening screw.

[0021] Furthermore, there are multiple through holes, and multiple circular holes are arranged around the sealing positioning member.
