[0031] like Figures 1-12As shown, a sand box fastening device for casting includes an upper box 1 and a lower box 2, which are fitted together to form a sand box. The upper box 1 has four through-holes 11 at its four corners, and the lower box 2 has two through-holes 21 at its four corners. One side of the first bolt hole 11 extends through the side of the upper box 1, and one side of the second bolt hole 21 extends through the side of the lower box 2. When the upper box 1 and lower box 2 are installed, the first bolt hole 11 and the second bolt hole 21 are aligned one-to-one, and a threaded rod 3 is fitted into the first bolt hole 11 and the second bolt hole 21 to connect the upper box 1 and the lower box 2 as a whole. The threaded rod 3 can be directly installed from the sides of the upper box 1 and the lower box 2 into the first bolt hole 11 and the second bolt hole 21 without needing to be inserted from top to bottom, and without needing to completely remove the locking nut 34 on the threaded rod 3 before disassembling and reassembling the threaded rod 3. It also includes a U-shaped limiting plate 4, the shape of which is the same as the shape of the sand box. The limiting plate 4 is set tightly against the outer wall of the upper box 1 and the lower box 2. Two limiting blocks 41 are symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the limiting plate 4. The limiting blocks 41 are provided with through holes 42, and two screws 3 located on the same side are respectively connected to the through holes 42 of the limiting blocks 41. Locking nuts 34 are fitted on the screws 3 and are set tightly against the upper end face of the upper box 1.

[0032] The sand box fastening device of this utility model allows for quick installation and removal of the screw rod 3. Through bolt holes 11 extending downwards are provided at the four corners of the upper box 1, and through bolt holes 21 extending downwards are provided at the four corners of the lower box 2. This allows the screw rod 3 to be installed or removed directly from the side of the box. This structure reduces the need for complete disassembly of the nuts and washers, improving work efficiency. Secondly, the limiting plate 4 connected to the screw rod 3 is fitted onto the outer wall of the contact surface between the upper box 1 and the lower box 2, thus limiting and fixing the box. This connection structure, using the screw rod 3 connected to the limiting plate 4 to limit and fix the sand box, ensures stable connection of the box during sand box handling and casting, guaranteeing the mold closing accuracy and clamping effect of the upper and lower boxes.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 In this utility model, only one limiting plate 4 is provided, which is set on one side of the sand box structure. Of course, two limiting plates 4 can also be provided, which are symmetrically set on both sides of the sand box structure to completely wrap the sand box structure and achieve a better limiting and fixing effect.

[0034] like Figures 1-12As shown, furthermore, the bottom end of the upper box 1 is provided with a limiting groove 13 communicating with bolt hole 11, and the upper end of the lower box 2 is provided with a limiting groove 25 communicating with bolt hole 21. The limiting groove 13 and the limiting groove 25 are connected; the limiting block 41 is fitted in the limiting groove 13 and the limiting groove 25. Through the cooperation of the limiting block 41 with the limiting groove 13 and the limiting groove 25, the positioning and installation of the limiting plate 4, the upper box 1 and the lower box 2 are realized.

[0035] like Figures 1-12 As shown, the upper end of the upper box 1 is provided with an annular groove 12 that communicates with the bolt hole 11, and the bottom end of the lower box 2 is provided with an annular groove 22 that communicates with the bolt hole 21. A gasket 33 is provided in the annular groove 12, and a gasket 32 ​​is provided in the annular groove 22. Both the gasket 33 and the gasket 32 ​​are fitted onto the screw 3. In this structure, washer 33 is placed in annular groove 12 and washer 32 is placed in annular groove 22. When the locking nut 34 is tightened, the entire screw 3 is completely restricted and cannot be disengaged from bolt hole 11 and bolt hole 21, thereby increasing the connection firmness of the side-grooved screw 3 installation structure. When it is necessary to disassemble the screw 3, simply loosen the locking nut 34, move washer 33 and washer 32 so that washer 33 leaves annular groove 12 and washer 32 leaves annular groove 22, and the screw 3 and locking nut 34 can be taken out from the side of bolt hole 11 and bolt hole 21.

[0036] like Figures 1-12 As shown, furthermore, one end of the screw 3 is provided with a hexagonal bolt head 31, and the bottom end of the lower box 2 is provided with a limiting groove 3 23 that communicates with the annular groove 22. The internal contour of the limiting groove 3 23 is set in a polygonal shape, and the hexagonal bolt head 31 is fitted in the limiting groove 3 23.
