TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of part casting technology, specifically, it shows an automatic filter screen taking and placing device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Low pressure casting is a commonly used casting process for manufacturing various metal products such as automobile parts, industrial machinery parts, etc. During the low pressure casting process, the metal liquid flows at high speed, which is easy to carry gas, inclusions and other impurities. These impurities entering the inside of the casting will cause defects such as porosity, slag inclusion, shrinkage cavity, etc., which seriously affect the quality and performance of the casting.
[0003] The main function of the low pressure casting filter is to remove impurities and impurity particles in the metal liquid to ensure the purity of the metal liquid. The filter is usually made of metal mesh, which has high temperature corrosion resistance and good filtering effect. By adding a filter, bubbles, inclusions and solid particles in the metal liquid can be effectively filtered out, making the metal liquid more pure and stable.
[0004] Currently, the production process of low pressure casting filter has realized automatic placement of filter screen. However, there is still room for improvement in the existing automatic system. The existing system still has room for improvement in terms of accuracy, speed and adaptability of filter screen placement. For example, in the prior art, the filter screen is attracted by three electrodes after being given magnetic properties by a magnet. However, the magnetic force at the three electrodes will be different, causing the filter screen to be ejected unevenly. Moreover, the magnetic force control of the three electrodes is very unstable, and there is a problem of taking out two filter screens at a time, which causes abnormal wear of the filter screen. The filter screen is also unstable during the filter screen clamping process, which causes the filter screen to accidentally fall into the mold, easily causing product scrap. Due to these technical problems, the inventor considers improving the existing filter screen clamping structure. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
