TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to foundry sand core technical field especially a gate cup sand core structure of preventing air lock. BACKGROUND
[0002] The gate cup sand core refers to the sand core part located inside the gate cup, which plays a crucial role in the pouring process of the metal liquid. The main function of the gate cup is to moderate the impact force of the metal liquid pouring and separate the slag, ensuring that the metal liquid can flow smoothly and uniformly into the mold. The sand core is used to form the cavity or complex structure inside the casting, and at the same time, it withstands the impact of high-temperature metal liquid.
[0003] The gate cup sand core will generate gas during the pouring process, mainly because the binder, moisture and other additives in the sand core material will decompose or evaporate when heated, generating gas. Impurities in the sand core, such as small clay clumps and paper clumps, will also release gas when heated. During the solidification process of the metal liquid, if the gas generated by the sand core cannot be discharged in time, air bubbles will be formed and remain in the casting, resulting in air holes. In addition, some products have shaped parts with reverse-docking shape, and the metal liquid will close the gas channels of these parts during the pouring process. The gas in the reverse-docking shape part is more difficult to discharge, and the metal liquid flow is not smooth, which cannot be fully filled, resulting in the defect of insufficient pouring. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a gate cup sand core structure for preventing air lock, which aims to discharge the gas generated by the sand core in time, promote the flow and filling of the metal liquid, and improve the product yield.

[0007] A cavity is formed in the inner ring sand core and communicates with the mold cavity;
[0008] An exhaust gap is formed between the outer wall of the inner ring sand core and the inner wall of the outer ring sand core, the upper end of the exhaust gap is used for communicating with the external environment, a flow guide cavity is formed between the lower part of the outer wall of the inner ring sand core and the lower part of the inner wall of the outer ring sand core, the flow guide cavity is part of the mold cavity and communicates with the lower end of the exhaust gap.
[0009] Further technical scheme:
[0010] The flow guide cavity has a structure of being narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.
[0011] The lower end of the exhaust gap is located at the narrowest part of the flow guide cavity.
[0012] At least one exhaust groove is arranged on the outer wall of the inner core sand, each of the exhaust grooves extends along the generatrix direction of the outer wall, and at least a part of each of the exhaust grooves is located in the exhaust gap.
[0013] The plurality of exhaust grooves are uniformly distributed along the outer wall of the inner core sand.
[0014] The inner core sand and the outer core sand are matched through a stepped surface.
[0015] Corresponding positioning parts matched with each other are arranged on the upper part of the inner core sand and the upper part of the outer core sand, and are used for limiting the circumferential position between the inner core sand and the outer core sand.

[0018] The upper end of the inner core sand is higher than the upper end of the outer core sand.
[0019] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0020] The utility model utilizes the splicing of the inner core sand and the outer core sand to form the reverse buckling part of the mold cavity, that is, the flow guide cavity, and exhausts through the exhaust gap formed by the splicing at the uppermost end of the flow guide cavity. The pouring filling will not be caused by the gas generated by the inner core sand and the gas generated by the reverse buckling structure and cannot be discharged in time, so that the filling is not full.
