Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum casting mold technology, specifically to an aluminum casting mold that can be rapidly cooled. Background Technology
[0002] Cast aluminum is a process in which molten aluminum is poured into a mold and cooled to form an aluminum part of the desired shape. Cast aluminum mold refers to the mold used to manufacture aluminum parts.
[0003] There are many types of aluminum casting molds. Common aluminum casting molds are usually made by directly pouring molten aluminum into the mold and then waiting for the molten aluminum inside the mold to cool and solidify naturally. The natural cooling time is relatively long, which reduces the efficiency of aluminum casting. Moreover, in some aluminum casting molds, workers open the mold in advance during the cooling process, and the aluminum parts do not have enough cooling time, which can easily lead to cost losses and waste of raw materials.
[0004] There is an urgent need for a rapidly cooling aluminum casting mold to address the technical deficiencies mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rapidly cooling aluminum casting mold to solve the problem of low cooling efficiency mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rapidly cooling aluminum casting mold, comprising a placement rack, a lower mold placed at the bottom of the placement rack, a mold cavity provided inside the lower mold, pre-reserved grooves provided on both sides of the bottom of the mold cavity, an ejector cylinder installed inside the pre-reserved grooves, an ejector plate fixedly connected to the output end of the ejector cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder installed at the top of the placement rack, an upper mold installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder, a cooling plate installed at the bottom of the upper mold, a cooling pipe installed inside the cooling plate, positioning blocks fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the upper mold, positioning slots provided on both sides of the top of the lower mold, a liquid inlet provided on the left side of the top of the upper mold, a liquid outlet provided on the right side of the top of the upper mold, a coolant circulation assembly installed on the left side of the placement rack, fixing plates fixedly connected to both sides of the lower mold, a self-locking motor installed at the front end of the fixing plate, a self-locking rod movably connected inside the fixing plate, and a timing sensor module installed at the bottom of the positioning slot.

[0008] Preferably, the cooling plate can be embedded inside the cavity of the lower mold, and the cooling pipes are arranged in an S-shape inside the cooling plate.
[0009] Preferably, the outer and inner walls of the ejector plate are fixedly connected with sealing rings, and the mold cavity is provided with an ejector groove.
[0010] Preferably, the ejector groove is annular, and the sealing ring is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the ejector groove.
[0011] Preferably, the timing sensing module and the self-locking motor are electrically connected.
[0012] Preferably, the output end of the self-locking motor is fixedly connected to the front end of the self-locking plug, and the self-locking plug is in the shape of an inverted "L".
[0013] Preferably, the positioning block has a self-locking groove inside, the positioning block is embedded inside the positioning groove, and the self-locking rod can be embedded inside the self-locking groove.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the rapidly cooling aluminum casting mold not only achieves the function of enhancing cooling efficiency and facilitating material discharge, but also achieves the function of easy self-locking;
[0015] (1) By setting up a coolant circulation assembly, a cooling plate, a cooling pipe, an inlet and an outlet, during processing, a hose is first used to connect the inlet and outlet to the coolant circulation assembly. Then, during the process of the upper and lower molds closing and casting aluminum, the coolant circulation assembly can drive the coolant to circulate inside the cooling pipe. The coolant flowing in the cooling pipe can accelerate the rapid cooling and forming of aluminum products. The cooling plate improves the efficiency of heat conduction and accelerates the cooling speed. This structure realizes the function of facilitating rapid forming with enhanced cooling efficiency.
[0016] (2) By setting a reserved groove, an ejector plate, an ejector cylinder, a sealing ring and an ejector groove, when the ejector plate is embedded in the ejector groove, the sealing ring can improve the closed sealing box, and the aluminum liquid can enter the mold cavity to cool and form normally. After cooling and forming, the upper mold is opened, the ejector cylinder pushes the ejector plate upward, and the ejector plate can eject the formed product from the lower mold to achieve rapid material removal. This structure realizes the function of easy and rapid material removal.
[0017] (3) By setting up a positioning slot, positioning block, self-locking groove, self-locking rod, fixing plate, self-locking motor and timing sensor module, after the upper mold and lower mold are closed, the positioning block of the upper mold can be inserted into the positioning slot. After the timing sensor module senses the positioning block, it starts timing and drives the self-locking motor. The self-locking motor drives the self-locking rod to rotate and insert into the self-locking groove to lock and fix the upper mold. After the timing sensor module finishes timing, the self-locking motor moves the self-locking rod out from the self-locking groove to pick up the material. This structure realizes the function of easy self-locking and avoids the situation where the mold is opened when it is not formed. Attached Figure Description

The cooling pipe 10 has positioning blocks 11 fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the upper mold 7. Positioning slots 5 are provided on both sides of the top end of the lower mold 2. An inlet 14 is provided on the left side of the top end of the upper mold 7, and an outlet 15 is provided on the right side of the top end of the upper mold 7. A coolant circulation assembly 6 is installed on the left side of the placement rack 1. Fixing plates 18 are fixedly connected to both sides of the lower mold 2. A self-locking motor 19 is installed at the front end of the fixing plate 18. A self-locking rod 17 is movably connected inside the fixing plate 18. A timing sensor module 20 is installed at the bottom end inside the positioning slot 5.
[0025] The coolant circulation assembly 6 is connected to the inlet 14 and the outlet 15 via hoses. The cooling plate 9 can be embedded inside the mold cavity 4 of the lower mold 2. The cooling pipes 10 are arranged in an S-shape inside the cooling plate 9.
[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, during the process of the upper mold 7 and the lower mold 2 closing to cast aluminum, the coolant circulation component 6 can drive the coolant to circulate inside the cooling pipe 10. The coolant flowing in the cooling pipe 10 can accelerate the rapid cooling and forming of the aluminum product. The cooling plate 9 improves the efficiency of heat conduction and accelerates the cooling speed.
[0027] The outer and inner walls of the ejector plate 12 are fixedly connected with sealing rings 21. The mold cavity 4 is provided with an ejector groove 22, which is annular. The sealing rings 21 are tightly fitted with the inner wall of the ejector groove 22.
[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, when the ejector plate 12 is embedded inside the ejector groove 22, the sealing ring 21 can improve the closed sealing box. Molten aluminum can enter the mold cavity 4 and cool and form normally. After cooling and forming, the upper mold 7 is opened, and the ejector cylinder 13 pushes the ejector plate 12 upward. The ejector plate 12 can eject the formed product from the lower mold 2 to achieve rapid material removal.
[0029] The timing sensor module 20 is electrically connected to the self-locking motor 19.

The positioning block 11 has a self-locking groove 16 inside. The positioning block 11 is embedded in the positioning groove 5. The self-locking rod 17 can be embedded in the self-locking groove 16.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the positioning block 11 of the upper mold 7 can be inserted into the positioning slot 5.

[0031] Working Principle: In use, molten aluminum is first injected into the cavity 4 of the lower mold 2. A flexible hose connects the inlet 14 and outlet 15 to the coolant circulation assembly 6. During the aluminum casting process, as the hydraulic cylinder 8 pushes the upper mold 7 and lower mold 2 to close, the coolant circulation assembly 6 drives the coolant to circulate within the cooling pipe 10. The coolant flowing in the cooling pipe 10 accelerates the rapid cooling and forming of the aluminum product. The cooling plate 9 improves the efficiency of heat conduction and speeds up the cooling process. The positioning block 11 of the upper mold 7 can be inserted into the positioning slot 5. (Timing sensor) After the timing module 20 senses the positioning block 11, it starts timing and drives the self-locking motor 19. The self-locking motor 19 drives the self-locking rod 17 to rotate and insert into the self-locking groove 16 to lock and fix the upper mold 7. After the timing module 20 finishes timing, the self-locking motor 19 removes the self-locking rod 17 from the self-locking groove 16 to remove the material. After cooling and molding, the upper mold 7 is opened, and the ejector cylinder 13 pushes the ejector plate 12 upward. The ejector plate 12 can eject the molded product from the lower mold 2 to achieve rapid material removal. This structure realizes the function of convenient and rapid material removal.
