Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sand casting technology, specifically a vibratory assembly for a crankshaft iron mold sand casting line. Background Technology
[0002] Iron mold sand casting is a special casting process that combines the advantages of metal mold casting and sand casting. Specifically, iron mold sand casting involves covering the inner surface of a metal cast iron mold (iron mold) with a thin layer of molding sand (usually coated sand) to form a mold, which is then poured to produce castings.
[0003] If the sand is not effectively vibrated during the sand-coated casting process, it may affect subsequent casting. Effective vibration allows the sand particles to rearrange within the mold cavity, forming a more compact and orderly structure, thereby improving the strength and corrosion resistance of the sand layer. Without vibration, the sand particles are arranged randomly and loosely, resulting in lower sand layer strength. During pouring and solidification, the sand layer is unable to withstand the pressure and thermal shock of the molten metal, easily leading to sand layer detachment and collapse, affecting the shape and size of the casting. Therefore, a vibration assembly for crankshaft mold sand-coated casting lines is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0019] 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. Example
[0020] Please see Figure 1-2 In this embodiment, a vibration assembly for a crankshaft iron mold sand-coated casting line includes a vibration assembly 2 disposed inside the casting mold body 1, which is used to uniformly vibrate the sand filled into the casting mold body 1 at multiple points. Example
[0021] Based on Example 1, please refer to Figure 2-3 In this embodiment, the vibrating assembly 2 includes a base plate 21, several sets of air holes 22 opened on the side of the base plate 21, and vibrating elements 23 disposed inside the several sets of air holes 22. After the airflow enters from the air pipe 233, it flows along the air holes 22 and enters the interior of each air pipe 231. The air pipe 231 is disposed inside the air holes 22, providing a flow channel for the airflow, so that the airflow can be evenly distributed to each vibrating element 23.
[0022] The vibrating element 23 includes several sets of air ducts 231 respectively disposed inside several sets of air holes 22, a rotating shaft 232 respectively rotatably disposed inside several sets of air ducts 231, and fan blades 234 disposed on the outer side of several sets of rotating shafts 232 for driving the rotating shafts 232 to rotate under the action of airflow. A flexible pad 235 is fixedly disposed on the outer side of the base plate 21 and on the outer side of the rotating shaft 232. A vibrating tube 236 is disposed on the side of the flexible pad 235 facing away from the base plate 21. A cam 237 is fixedly disposed on the outer side of the rotating shaft 232 and inside the vibrating tube 236. A paddle 238 corresponding to the position of the cam 237 is fixedly disposed inside the vibrating tube 236 for plucking the paddle 238 when the cam 237 rotates to make the vibrating tube 236 vibrate.
[0023] In this embodiment, an air pipe 233 connected to several sets of air holes 22 is fixed on the outer side of the base plate 21 to provide an air source. A control valve is provided on the outer side of the air pipe 233 to control the airflow input. The air source is introduced into the vibrating assembly 2 through the air pipe 233. The air pipe 233 is connected to several sets of air holes 22 on the base plate 21. The control valve on the outer side of the air pipe 233 can control the airflow input so as to adjust the size and on / off of the airflow according to actual needs.
[0024] In this embodiment, the outer side of the base plate 21 is provided with a connecting hole corresponding to the position of the rotating shaft 232, and the rotating shaft 232 is rotatably mounted inside the connecting hole via a bearing. The cam 237 is an eccentric cam. Each set of paddles 238 consists of four pieces, arranged in a ring inside the vibrating tube 236. Each set of fan blades 234 consists of three pieces, arranged in a ring outside the rotating shaft 232. After the airflow enters the air duct 231, it will impact the fan blades 234 mounted on the rotating shaft 232 inside the air duct 231. Each set of rotating shafts 232 has three fan blades 234 arranged in a ring outside. Under the action of the airflow, the fan blades 234 will drive the rotating shaft 232 to rotate. The shape and angle design of the fan blades 234 enable the airflow to effectively drive its rotation, thereby achieving continuous rotation of the rotating shaft 232.
[0025] Furthermore, a cam 237 is fixed on the outer side of the rotating shaft 232. The cam 237 is an eccentric cam. When the rotating shaft 232 rotates, the cam 237 rotates accordingly. Inside the vibrating pipe 236, there are four paddles 238 corresponding to the position of the cam 237. Each set of paddles 238 consists of four paddles, which are arranged in a ring. During the rotation of the cam 237, its eccentric structure will periodically contact the paddles 238 and paddle the paddles 238, causing the paddles 238 to reciprocate. The reciprocating motion of the paddles 238 will drive the vibrating pipe 236 to vibrate.
[0026] Furthermore, the vibration of the vibrating pipe 236 can be transmitted to the sand in contact with it, thereby achieving the vibration effect on the sand. This vibration method can make the sand fill the various parts of the casting mold body 1 more tightly, improve the uniformity of the sand distribution, avoid defects such as voids and air holes, and ensure the quality of the casting.
[0027] It should be noted that the flexible pad 235, as the connecting component between the vibrating pipe 236 and the base plate 21, has sufficient margin for the vibrating pipe 236 to generate a swing amplitude due to its flexibility.
[0028] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0029] Air is introduced into the vibrating assembly 2 through air pipe 233. Air pipe 233 is connected to several sets of air holes 22 on the base plate 21. The control valve on the outside of air pipe 233 can control the airflow input, so as to adjust the airflow size and on / off according to actual needs. After entering through air pipe 233, the airflow flows along the air holes 22 and enters the interior of each air pipe 231. The air pipe 231 is set inside the air holes 22, providing a flow channel for the airflow, so that the airflow can be evenly distributed to each vibrating component 23. After the airflow enters the air pipe 231, it will impact the fan blades 234 set on the rotating shaft 232 inside the air pipe 231. Each set of rotating shaft 232 has three fan blades 234 arranged in a ring on the outside. Under the action of airflow, the fan blades 234 will drive the rotating shaft 232 to rotate. The shape and angle design of the fan blades 234 enable the airflow to effectively drive its rotation, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating shaft 232. As shaft 232 rotates continuously, a cam 237 is fixed to the outside of shaft 232. The cam 237 is an eccentric cam. When shaft 232 rotates, cam 237 rotates accordingly. Inside vibrating pipe 236, there are four paddles 238 corresponding to the position of cam 237. Each set of paddles 238 consists of four paddles arranged in a ring. During rotation, the eccentric structure of cam 237 periodically contacts and moves paddles 238, causing paddles 238 to reciprocate. The reciprocating motion of paddles 238 drives vibrating pipe 236. The vibration of vibrating pipe 236 can be transmitted to the sand in contact with it, thereby achieving the vibration effect on the sand. This vibration method can make the sand fill the various parts of casting mold body 1 more tightly, improve the uniformity of sand distribution, avoid defects such as voids and air holes, and ensure the quality of castings.
