Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of gating system structures in casting production. More specifically, this utility model relates to a slag-blocking structure for a sprue. Background Technology

[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, in the casting production process, the sprue is an important component connecting the molten metal inlet and the sand mold. However, when the molten metal flows through the bottom of the sprue, a ceramic filter is needed to prevent slag formation. The ceramic filter is typically 60-90mm in size. In the production of large castings in existing hydrostatic lines, the casting occupies a large portion of the mold plate on certain casting plates. Because the sprue is located far from the pouring side, flow interruption occurs during pouring.

[0003] Using keywords such as "direct casting channel; base; slag barrier," a search was conducted on existing publicly available technical documents, yielding the following results:

[0004] 1. Chinese patent document: "A small-mass casting fully enclosed edge-pressing casting equipment and process", patent (application) number: 202211458147.6; the technical solution described therein is:

[0005] "The small-mass casting full-core pressing edge casting equipment includes a pouring cup, the bottom of which is connected to a sprue, the sprue is connected to a pouring cup base, the pouring cup base is installed on a pouring socket, a main sprue is installed on the pouring socket, a mud core is installed on the main sprue, Y-shaped test blocks are installed on both sides of the pouring socket, and risers are installed on the Y-shaped test blocks."

[0006] The technical effects described are:

[0007] "To prevent gas from being trapped and causing porosity, two Y-shaped test blocks are used for counterweighting, and the casting is directly pressed and molded through a hot riser. This method has good feeding efficiency, high yield, and can effectively reduce sand erosion, sand hole defects, and grinding workload. It also solves the problem that existing gating systems generate a large amount of gas during casting, which can easily cause porosity inside the casting and requires grinding after casting."
