[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the utility model provides a zinc alloy ingot casting cooling device, including a support plate 1, wherein the support plates 1 are symmetrically arranged in two pieces, and a condensate collecting shell 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 1. The support plate 1 includes a transmission mechanism 2 for transmission, a cooling mechanism 3 for cooling the top of the mold 26, and a water spray mechanism 5 for cooling the bottom of the mold 26;

[0025] A cooling device 31 is provided on one side of the support plate 1. A first air pipe 32 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cooling device 31. A second air pipe 33 is fixedly connected to the top of the first air pipe 32. One end of the second air pipe 33 passes through the bottom side wall of the condensate collection shell 4 and extends to the other side wall. Several cooling nozzles 34 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the bottom end of the second air pipe 33.

[0026] In this embodiment, when cooling is required, the conveying mechanism 2 is first started to convey the cast zinc alloy ingot to the bottom of the condensate collection shell 4, and then the cooling device 31 is started. The cold air generated by it enters the second air pipe 33 through the first air pipe 32. When the cold air reaches the several cold air nozzles 34 on the outer surface of the bottom end of the second air pipe 33, it is sprayed from the cold air nozzles 34 to the top of the zinc alloy ingot. The cold air can quickly take away the heat, so that the temperature of the top of the zinc alloy ingot drops rapidly, achieving an efficient cooling effect, greatly shortening the cooling time, and improving production efficiency.

[0027] In a further embodiment, a first drain pipe 56 is fixedly sleeved on one side of the condensate collecting shell 4 , a water collecting tank 41 is opened inside the condensate collecting shell 4 , and one end of the first drain pipe 56 passes through the side wall of the condensate collecting shell 4 and extends to the inside of the water collecting tank 41 .

[0028] In this embodiment, in the process of the cold air sprayed by the cold air nozzle 34 taking away the heat from the top of the zinc alloy ingot, the temperature change causes the water vapor to condense into water, and the condensed water flows into the water collection tank 41 opened inside the condensate collection shell 4 under the action of gravity. When the condensed water in the water collection tank 41 reaches a certain amount, the condensed water will be discharged through the first drain pipe 56, which can effectively collect the condensed water and provide a centralized storage space for the condensed water, making the collection of the condensed water more convenient and efficient, avoiding the condensed water from flowing everywhere, and preventing it from affecting the normal operation of the cold air nozzle 34, thereby always maintaining a stable cooling effect and making the cooling process more controllable.

[0029] In a further embodiment, the other end of the first drain pipe 56 is fixedly sleeved with a second drain pipe 57 , and the bottom end of the second drain pipe 57 passes through the top wall of the water tank 51 and extends to the interior.

[0030] In this embodiment, when the condensate in the water collecting tank 41 reaches a certain amount, the condensate will flow out through the first drain pipe 56, and the condensate in the first drain pipe 56 will flow into the water tank 51 through the second drain pipe 57 for storage, thereby achieving orderly discharge of condensate and recycling of water resources, reducing waste of water resources.

[0031] In a further embodiment, a water inlet 58 is opened at one end of the top of the water tank 51, and a water pump 52 is fixedly installed at the other end of the top of the water tank 51. A water pump 53 is fixedly connected to the input end of the water pump 52, and the water pump 53 passes through the top wall of the water tank 51 and extends to the interior.

[0032] In this embodiment, when water needs to be added to the water tank 51, it can be added through the water inlet 58. The water pump 52 operates to generate suction, so that the water in the water tank 51 enters the water pumping pipe 53 under pressure, preparing for subsequent water spraying and cooling.

[0033] In a further embodiment, a water pipe 54 is fixedly connected to the output end of the water tank 51. The water pipe 54 passes through the side wall of the support plate 1 and extends to the inside of the other side support plate 1. A plurality of water spray heads 55 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the top end of the water pipe 54. The water spray heads 55 are set at a 45-degree inclination.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the cold air nozzle 34 sprays cold air to cool the top of the zinc alloy ingot, the water pump 52 is started, and the water pump 52 draws water from the water tank 51 through the pumping pipe 53. The pumped water enters the water supply pipe 54, and the water is sprayed from several water nozzles 55 at the top of the water supply pipe 54. When the sprayed water contacts the bottom of the zinc alloy ingot, it takes away the heat from the bottom by evaporating and absorbing heat, and works together with the cold air sprayed from the top cold air nozzle 34 to achieve simultaneous cooling of the top and bottom of the zinc alloy ingot, thereby improving the cooling efficiency. The water nozzle 55 is tilted at 45 degrees, so that the water spray covers the surface of the bottom of the zinc alloy ingot more evenly, further improving the cooling effect of the water spray.

[0035] In a further embodiment, a motor 21 is provided at one end of the support plate 1, and a small pulley 22 is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the motor 21, a belt 23 is meshed and installed on the outer surface of the small pulley 22, a large pulley 24 is meshed and installed on the top of the belt 23, and a chain drive assembly 25 drive roller is fixedly sleeved inside the large pulley 24.

[0036] In this embodiment, when the motor 21 is started, its output shaft drives the small pulley 22 to rotate, the small pulley 22 drives the belt 23 to start moving, and the belt 23 drives the large pulley 24 to rotate. As the large pulley 24 rotates, the chain drive assembly 25 operates accordingly, thereby realizing the transmission of the cast zinc alloy ingot, and transporting the zinc alloy ingot to the bottom of the condensate collection shell 4 for cooling treatment, thereby greatly improving production efficiency.

[0037] In a further embodiment, a plurality of molds 26 are fixedly connected inside the chain transmission assembly 25 , and a connecting plate 27 is movably connected between the molds 26 .

[0038] In this embodiment, when the chain drive assembly 25 is operating, the mold 26 will move with the movement of the chain drive assembly 25. The connecting plate 27 plays a connecting and coordinating role during the movement of the mold 26, so that the mold 26 maintains a relatively stable position relationship during the transmission process. At the same time, it can also adapt to the movement changes of the chain drive assembly 25 in situations such as turning, further improving the stability of the transmission.

[0039] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
