[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a casting mold for preparing tensile test bars, comprising:
[0030] The mold body 1 includes a first module 11 and a second module 12 that are hinged to each other, and a forming cavity 13 for casting tensile test bars is provided between the first module 11 and the second module 12.
[0031] The positioning component 2 includes a corresponding positioning screw hole 21 and a positioning screw 22. The positioning screw 22 is rotatably connected to the second module 12, and the positioning screw hole 21 is opened on the first module 11. After the first module 11 and the second module 12 are closed, the positioning screw 22 is threaded into the positioning screw hole 21.
[0032] The locking assembly 3 includes a first locking rod 31 and a second locking rod, which are respectively provided. The first locking rod 31 is fixed to the first module 11, and the second locking rod is fixed to the second module 12. A locking block 33 is detachably provided between the first module 11 and the second module 12.
[0033] The cooling assembly 4 includes cooling chambers 41 respectively disposed in the first module 11 and the second module 12.
[0034] This utility model discloses a casting mold for producing tensile test bars. The first module 11 and the second module 12, hinged together, facilitate opening, closing, and positioning. The forming cavity 13 for casting the tensile test bar is located between the first module 11 and the second module 12, facilitating casting. The positioning screw hole 21 and the positioning screw 22 of the positioning component 2 are respectively located between the first module 11 and the second module 12. When the first module 11 and the second module are closed, the bottom end of the positioning screw 22 is threaded into the positioning screw hole 21, ensuring precise and tight positioning of the forming cavity 13. The locking block 3 of the locking component 3... 3. The locking mechanism is positioned between the first locking rod 31 and the second locking rod. After mold closing, it locks the first module 11 and the second module 12 together, bearing the tension generated during aluminum alloy casting and preventing separation or misalignment of the first module 11 and the second module 12 during casting. This facilitates improved molding quality of the tensile test rod within the molding cavity 13. The cooling chamber 41 of the cooling component 4 is spirally positioned within the first module 11 and the second module 12. During tensile test rod casting, cooling water circulates within the cooling chamber 41, accelerating the cooling of the mold body 1 and increasing the molding efficiency of the tensile test rod. This invention is convenient to use, provides precise positioning after mold closing, and exhibits high stability. It effectively prevents mold breakage and misalignment during casting, improving the molding quality of the tensile test rod. Simultaneously, the cooling component 4 enhances the cooling efficiency of the mold and improves molding efficiency.
[0035] In one embodiment of this application, the molding cavity 13 includes a pouring port 14 and a riser 15 that penetrate the side walls of the first module 11 and the second module 12. During casting, liquid aluminum alloy is poured in from the pouring port 14 until liquid aluminum alloy emerges from the riser 15, indicating that the molding cavity 13 is filled.
[0036] In one embodiment of this application, the molding cavity 13 can mold multiple tensile test bars at one time, and the molding spaces of adjacent tensile test bars are connected by a first connecting gating 16 and a second connecting gating 17, respectively, to facilitate one-time molding.
[0037] In one embodiment of this application, a plurality of slag-avoiding blind channels 18 are connected between the second connecting gating channels 17 at the bottom, which can store the residue in the aluminum alloy during the casting process and prevent the residue from accumulating in the tensile test bar.
[0038] To further optimize the design, several high-thermal-conductivity heat-conducting rods 42 are provided on the sidewall of the cooling cavity 41. One end of the heat-conducting rod 42, away from the cooling cavity 41, extends into the molding cavity 13 and is flush with the sidewall of the molding cavity 13. The heat-conducting rod 42 is made of a high-thermal-conductivity material. When the molten aluminum alloy is poured into the molding cavity 13, it accelerates the heat conduction of the aluminum alloy, allowing the heat to be transferred into the cooling cavity 41 and carried away by the flowing cooling water, thus accelerating the cooling efficiency.
[0039] To further optimize the design, a positioning spring 23 in a compressed state is fitted onto the positioning screw 22. One end of the positioning spring 23 abuts against the surface of the second module 12, and the other end abuts against the nut of the positioning screw 22. After mold closing, the positioning screw 22 is pressed down so that its end contacts the positioning screw hole 21, and then the positioning screw 22 is tightened into the positioning screw hole 21 to lock the first module 11 and the second module 12. When the mold is opened, the positioning screw 22 is unscrewed from the positioning screw hole 21, and the positioning spring 23 rebounds to position the positioning screw 22 on the first module 11, thus avoiding interference with mold opening and closing.
[0040] In a further optimized design, the first locking rod 31 has an annular first clearance groove 34, and the second locking rod has a second clearance groove 35 corresponding to the first clearance groove 34. The locking block 33 is rotatably connected within the first clearance groove 34, and the notch 36 of the locking block 33 is engaged within the second clearance groove 35. The first clearance groove 34 and the second clearance groove 35 are annular, and the locking block 33 is rotatably connected within the first clearance groove 34, while the notch 36 of the locking block 33 can be detachably engaged with the second locking rod. After mold closing, the locking block 33 is rotated so that the notch 36 engages with the second clearance groove 35, locking the first module 11 and the second module 12. When the mold opens, the locking block 33 is rotated in the opposite direction so that the notch 36 separates from the second locking rod.
[0041] In a further optimized design, a locking groove 37 is provided at the bottom of the notch 36. A locking spring 38 in a compressed state is installed in the locking groove 37. The locking spring 38 is fixedly connected to a locking block 39 slidably connected in the locking groove 37. The locking block 39 extends out of the locking groove 37 and inserts into the slot 310 on the upper wall of the notch 36, locking the second locking rod in the notch 36. The locking block 39 slides and extends within the locking groove 37 under the action of the locking spring 38. When no force is applied, the top of the locking block 39 extends out of the locking groove 37 and engages in the slot 310 under the push of the locking spring 38, thus locking the second locking rod in the notch 36. When mold opening is required, the locking block 39 is pressed down to retract into the locking groove 37, allowing the notch 36 to separate from the second locking rod.
[0042] In a further optimized design, a guide groove 311 is provided on the side wall of the locking groove 37. A pressing plate 312 is slidably connected within the guide groove 311. One end of the pressing plate 312 extends into the locking groove 37 and is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the locking block 39, while the other end extends out of the guide groove 311. Pressing the pressing plate 312 facilitates the downward pressing of the locking block 39, causing it to retract into the locking groove 37 and separating the notch 36 from the second locking rod.
[0043] In a further optimized design, a locking screw 313 is threaded onto the locking block 33. The locking screw 313 extends into the locking groove 37 and abuts against the side wall of the locking block 39. After the locking screw 313 is tightened, it abuts against the side wall of the locking block 39, thereby locking the locking block 39 and the locking groove 37 and preventing accidental contact that could lead to separation or misalignment between the first module 11 and the second module 12.
[0044] To further optimize the design, the side wall of the first module 11 is equipped with a cooling water inlet pipe 43 and a cooling water outlet pipe 44, which are respectively connected to both ends of the cooling chamber 41. The cooling water inlet pipe 43 and the cooling water outlet pipe 44 are respectively connected to both ends of the cooling chamber 41, which facilitates the circulation of cooling water and accelerates cooling.
