Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of casting molds, in particular to a casting mold for a conductive shell of a high-voltage switch. Background Art
[0002] Siemens high-voltage switchgear conductive housings are important components in high-voltage switchgear circuit breakers and are used in large quantities. These products are characterized by large size and thin walls, typically 5-6mm thick, making them large, thin-walled cylindrical parts. Existing technologies use a main flow channel to feed material into thin-walled cylindrical parts, but the branch flow channels are located at the thick end of the wall. This results in uneven feeding, easily leading to cold shuts and poor casting quality in the thin-walled areas. Furthermore, during later cleaning of the internal flow channel, the thin-walled areas are prone to deformation, and in severe cases, wall breakage can occur, resulting in scrap. Therefore, a casting mold for high-voltage switchgear conductive housings is proposed to improve the quality of castings. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: auxiliary flow channels are provided at the thin wall portion of the conductive shell through the main flow channel, thereby facilitating the molding of the thin wall portion of the conductive shell and preventing the occurrence of cold shut and casting failure.
