Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electro-hydraulic valve casting technology, and in particular to a sand core structure for electro-hydraulic valve casting. Background Technology
[0002] Electro-hydraulic valves are typically manufactured using a casting process. The casting sand core has a complex internal cavity and plays a crucial role in casting production. The core shooter uses compressed air to evenly inject molding sand into the sand box for pre-compacting, and then applies pressure to compact it for sand injection. Currently, the sand core assembly process for traditional engineering machinery hydraulic solenoid valves involves many steps and requires a large number of movable blocks and sand cores. However, due to the complex structure of the sand core, it is difficult to mold all the complex sand cores at once. For example, the sand core mold for casting a hydraulic solenoid valve for engineering machinery, as described in Chinese patent application number CN201821277864.8, includes a sand box, a sand mold, and a sand core assembly. The sand core assembly is placed on the sand mold, and the sand core assembly and sand mold are placed inside the sand box to form a casting cavity together with the sand box. The sand core assembly and sand mold are positioned on the sand box. In this utility model, the combination of the sand core assembly and the sand mold serves as the casting part of the hydraulic solenoid valve. The hollow sand core structure makes the sand core lighter and reduces the amount of sand used, thus reducing costs. By selecting a reasonable parting position, the number of sand core assemblies is minimized while reducing the use of movable blocks, simplifying the production process of casting hydraulic solenoid valves.
[0003] However, when multiple sand cores are coaxially arranged on a sand core frame to form a sand core structure, the lack of a device for positioning and fixing the multiple sand cores makes it difficult to demold the electro-hydraulic valve sand core in one go when using multiple sand cores to form a sand core structure. At the same time, the multiple sand cores are prone to displacement. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the issues raised in the background art, such as the lack of a device for positioning and fixing multiple sand cores, which makes it difficult to demold the electro-hydraulic valve sand core in one go when using multiple sand cores to form a sand core structure, and the tendency for multiple sand cores to shift, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A sand core structure for casting electro-hydraulic valves includes a main core disposed within a sand core box. A secondary core 1 is disposed within the main core for cooperating with the main core. A secondary core 2 is disposed at the top of the secondary core 1 for cooperating with the secondary core 2 to form an integral sand core with the main core. A fixing device for locking the secondary core 1 is disposed within the main core.
[0006] The top of the first auxiliary core is provided with a positioning stop for positioning the second auxiliary core, and there are three positioning stops. The first auxiliary core is provided with a socket for locking the second auxiliary core in conjunction with a fixing device.
[0007] The fixing device includes a fixing component disposed within the main core for insertion into the socket, and an auxiliary component disposed within the main core for controlling the insertion of the fixing component into the socket.
[0008] Furthermore, two main spindles are fixedly installed on the frame of the main core, and a connecting rod one and a connecting rod two are fixedly installed at the top end of the main spindle.
[0009] Furthermore, the left and right ends of the secondary core are fixedly equipped with contact rods for positioning and fixing with the main core shaft, the bottom end of the secondary core is fixedly equipped with a plug rod for positioning and fixing with the positioning stop, and the bottom end of the secondary core is fixedly equipped with a connecting rod three.
[0010] Furthermore, the top of the secondary core is provided with a connection port for positioning and engaging with the connecting rod three, and the connection port is located on the right side of the positioning stop.
[0011] Furthermore, the auxiliary component includes a slide rod fixedly installed inside the main core for sliding the fixing component, and a spring is fitted on the slide rod for inserting the fixing component into the socket.
[0012] Furthermore, the fixing assembly includes a limiting plate fitted onto the slide rod for left and right movement, and a locking rod for inserting into the socket to fix the secondary core is fixedly installed on the limiting plate away from the slide rod. An operating plate for driving the limiting plate to move left and right is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the limiting plate.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] By setting up a main core, secondary core one, secondary core two, and a fixing device, when it is necessary to combine the main core, secondary core one, and secondary core two into a single sand core, three insert rods can be inserted into three positioning stops, and a connecting rod three can be inserted into a connecting hole, thus achieving positioning contact and fixing of secondary core one and secondary core two. Then, secondary core one is placed into the main core shaft, at which point the contact rod and the positioning hole can be positioned and engaged, thus making secondary core one and the main core a whole. Finally, the spring in a compressed state, under the elastic action, can cause the limiting plate to move to the right along the sliding rod, thereby controlling the locking rod to be inserted into the insert hole to combine the main core, secondary core one, and secondary core two into a single sand core. In this way, the casting accuracy can be achieved through multiple sand shooting core making technology, with each sand core positioned and connected, the sand core fixed, and high dimensional accuracy and high strength.

[0028] It includes a main core 100 set inside a sand core box, a secondary core 200 that cooperates with the main core 100 inside the main core 100, a secondary core 300 that cooperates with the secondary core 300 to form an integral sand core with the main core 100 at its top end, and a fixing device 400 for locking the secondary core 200 inside the main core 100.
[0029] Two main spindles 101 are fixedly installed on the frame of the main core 100, and the two main spindles 101 are provided with positioning holes for positioning contact with the auxiliary core 200 at their close ends; a connecting rod 102 is fixedly installed at the top end of the main spindle 101, and a connecting rod 203 is fixedly installed at the top end of the main spindle 101.
[0030] The top of the secondary core 200 has a positioning stop 203 for positioning the secondary core 200, and there are three positioning stops 203 arranged in a circular array on the top of the secondary core 200; the top of the secondary core 200 has a connecting port 201 for positioning and contacting the connecting rod 302, and the connecting port 201 is located to the right of the positioning stop 203; the secondary core 200 has a part inside for cooperating with the fixing device 400 to position the secondary core 200. The locking hole 202 is used to facilitate the positioning and fixing by inserting the fixing device 400 into the positioning contact hole 202. This allows the main core 100, auxiliary core 1 200 and auxiliary core 2 300 to be combined into a single sand core, enabling rapid casting of electro-hydraulic valves. When it is necessary to combine auxiliary core 1 200 with the main core 100, auxiliary core 1 200 can be placed into the main core 100 and fixed in place by the fixing device 400.
[0031] The left and right ends of the secondary core 300 are fixedly equipped with contact rods 303 for positioning and fixing with the main core 101. The contact rods 303 are inserted into the positioning holes of the two main cores 101, and the main core 100 and the secondary core 300 are fixedly positioned in contact. The bottom end of the secondary core 300 is fixedly equipped with a plug rod 301 for positioning and fixing with the positioning stop 203. The plug rod 301 can be inserted into the positioning stop 203 and achieve positioning contact, so as to facilitate the combination of the main core 100, the secondary core 200 and the secondary core 300 into a whole sand core.
