[0032] Figure 9 A schematic view of an emergency shut-off valve body, at present, the traditional casting mold is usually single-piece casting, which easily leads to serious waste of sand, low process yield, high casting cost, and poor compactness of the final casting.

[0033] Based on the above problems, as shown in Figures 1 to 8 The present specification provides a casting mold for an emergency shut-off valve body, which includes a bottom mold 1, a front mold 2, a rear mold 3, and a top mold 4, and the four molds form two symmetrical mold cavities 5, which can realize simultaneous production of two parts, improve production efficiency, and reduce production cycle.

[0034] Due to the position of the cut-off groove, the upper and lower ends of the emergency shut-off valve are separated by the cut-off groove, causing large isolated hot spot areas at the upper and lower ends. Therefore, during the casting process, loose defects are prone to occur. Therefore, a main runner 6 is arranged in the middle of each of the two mold cavities 5, and the main runner 6 is arranged with an upper sub-runner 7 and a lower sub-runner 8 above and below each mold cavity 5, which can more evenly distribute molten metal, ensure that the mold cavity is full, and help to improve the compactness and quality of the casting.

[0035] Secondly, each of the mold cavities 5 is provided with a core pulling block 9 and a sand core block 10, the core pulling block 9 pulls the core upward, and the bottom mold 1 is provided with a first positioning groove 11 for positioning the sand core block 10, which can better form a complex internal cavity structure, increase the precision and consistency of the casting, and the first positioning groove 11 arranged on the bottom mold 1 can ensure the accurate positioning of the sand core block 10, thereby reducing the deviation and improving the dimensional accuracy of the casting.

[0036] In addition, compared with the traditional general sand core block, the inner cavity of the upper part of the emergency shut-off valve in the present application is neat, so that the core pulling is performed, which can improve the precision of the casting compared with the sand core block, and the inner cavity of the lower part of the emergency shut-off valve is complex, so the sand core block is also needed. In this way, the use of materials is optimized, the waste of sand is reduced, the yield of the process is improved, and the production cost is reduced.

[0037] It should be understood that the sand core block 10 is manufactured in advance according to the shape of the inner cavity of the lower part of the emergency shut-off valve, and when the casting of the emergency shut-off valve is completed, the sand core block is placed on the sand shaking table to be shaken and poured out.

[0038] In some embodiments, the sand core block 10 includes a bottom positioning end 100 and a side positioning end 101, the first positioning groove 11 is matched with and positioned by the bottom positioning end 100, and the side positioning end 101 is provided with a positioning channel 12 passing through and matched with the side positioning end 101 on the side of the mold cavity 5 away from the main sprue 6. The positioning channel 12 is formed by the first groove 200 provided on the front mold 2 and the second groove 300 provided on the rear mold 3. In this way, the double positioning design of the bottom positioning end 100 and the side positioning end 101 provides better stability to prevent the sand core block 10 from moving or deforming during casting.

[0039] Further, the outer end of the positioning channel 12 is provided with a second positioning groove 13, and the second positioning groove 13 is formed by the third groove 201 provided on the front mold 2 and the fourth groove 301 provided on the rear mold 3. The bottom mold 1 is provided with a positioning block 14 corresponding to the second positioning groove 13. After the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3 are closed, the positioning block 14 abuts between the third groove 201 and the fourth groove 301, which not only ensures the accuracy of the closing position of the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3, but also avoids displacement of the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3 on the left and right sides during high-pressure casting.

[0040] Further, the positioning block 14 is provided with a third positioning groove 140 matched with the side positioning end 101, which can further improve the positioning accuracy of the sand core block 10 in the mold cavity 5.

[0041] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 The bottom mold 1 is provided with a guide rail 15 along the opening and closing direction of the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3, and the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3 are provided with a sliding groove 16 matched with the guide rail 15, which ensures that the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3 always remain on the correct track during opening and closing, avoids deviation, improves opening and closing accuracy, provides additional support and positioning, and enhances the structural stability of the mold as a whole, especially during high-pressure casting.

[0042] In some embodiments, the bottom mold 1 is provided with a sprue 17 matched with the main sprue 6, and the bottom wall of the lower sub-sprue 8 is inclined downward toward the direction of the sprue 17, which helps the backflow of the molten metal and reduces the loss of the molten metal, thereby improving the utilization rate of the material.

[0043] In some embodiments, the core-pulling block 9 and the sand core block 10 are provided with a butt joint groove 18 and a butt joint block 19, respectively, and the butt joint block 19 is inserted into the butt joint groove 18 to form a sealed cavity 20 therebetween, as shown in Figure 3 The combination of the butt joint block 19 and the butt joint groove 18 can ensure the accurate positioning of the core-pulling block 9 and the sand core block 10 during assembly, reduce the possibility of mispositioning, and improve the precision of the casting. In addition, the provision of the sealed cavity 20 is conducive to the separation of the core-pulling block 9 and the sand core block 10 after casting under high temperature and high pressure.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first limiting plate 21 is arranged on the outer side of the front mold 2 in the opening and closing direction of the front mold 2 and the rear mold 3, and the second limiting plate 22 is arranged on the outer side of the rear mold 3, which can prevent the mold from accidentally exceeding the set range during operation, improve the safety of the operation process, and reduce the risk of accidents.

[0045] Optionally, the core-pulling block 9 is separated from the top mold 4 to complete the core pulling, which simplifies the entire mold operation process and reduces the need for separate steps. Of course, the core-pulling block 9 is arranged to slide up and down on the top mold 4, and the former structure is usually preferred.

[0046] It should be understood that other structures of the mold, such as the core-pulling, the driving mechanism for opening and closing the mold, and the cooling channel, can be reasonably arranged by those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail in the present specification.

[0047] In summary, after reading the detailed disclosure, those skilled in the art can understand that the foregoing detailed disclosure can be presented only in an exemplary manner and can not be limiting.
