Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ductile iron casting technology, and in particular to an auxiliary cooling device for the surface of ductile iron concave mold castings. Background Technology
[0002] Ductile iron is a type of cast iron material with high strength and high plasticity, produced by adding a spheroidizing agent (usually magnesium or cerium) to molten gray cast iron, which transforms the graphite in the cast iron from flakes to spheres.
[0003] During the production of ductile iron die castings, the mold surface area is prone to defects such as shrinkage porosity due to the concentration of heat. Due to the high pouring temperature, the casting solidifies and cools slowly, resulting in a long sand box occupation period and low production efficiency. At present, although chills can be used for rapid cooling, for large die castings, the cooling speed of chills alone is limited, the effect is uneven, and the practicality is low. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the technical problems of slow cooling rate, easy shrinkage defects and long unpacking cycle of ductile iron die castings in existing patents, this utility model provides an auxiliary quenching device for ductile iron die castings.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is: an auxiliary cooling device for the surface of a ductile iron die casting, comprising:
[0006] The main body of the die casting;
[0007] A chilling structure is installed on the top of the die casting body, and the chilling structure is used to improve the cooling rate of the die casting surface.
[0008] The cooling structure includes an annular air-cooling pipe, an air inlet connection pipe and an air outlet connection pipe installed at the bottom of the annular air-cooling pipe, and a conformal air-cooling pipe installed inside the annular air-cooling pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, both the annular air-cooling pipe and the conformal air-cooling manifold are thin-walled seamless steel pipes, with a diameter of 60mm and a wall thickness of 2mm.
[0010] Furthermore, the diameter of the air inlet connecting pipe and the air outlet connecting pipe is 50mm, and the wall thickness is 2mm.
[0011] Furthermore, a position adjustment component is installed on one side of the annular air-cooling pipe. The position adjustment component is used to adjust the position of the annular air-cooling pipe according to usage requirements. The position adjustment component includes a lifting and moving guide rail installed on one side of the annular air-cooling pipe, a positioning seat installed on one side of the slider of the lifting and moving guide rail, a disassembly and assembly structure installed inside the positioning seat, and an assembly seat installed on one side of the annular air-cooling pipe.
[0012] Furthermore, a positioning groove is provided on one side of the positioning seat, and a reset groove is provided on one side of the positioning groove. The disassembly and assembly structure includes a reset plate fused to the inner wall of the reset groove by a reset spring, a limiting post and a disassembly and assembly post fixedly welded to one side of the reset plate, and a positioning block fixedly welded to one side of the assembly seat.
[0013] Furthermore, the positioning block cooperates with the positioning groove, and a limiting hole is formed on the positioning block, which cooperates with the limiting post.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. By connecting the air compressor's air supply pipe to the air inlet pipe, the air compressor is turned on. The compressed air inlet temperature is about 28°C. After flowing through the interior of the cooling structure, it absorbs the heat from the sand mold and becomes superheated gas. The gas temperature rises to about 60°C and is discharged from the air outlet pipe. This process continuously removes heat, reduces the temperature field in the sand mold area above the casting surface, and achieves efficient and uniform cooling of the casting surface.
[0016] 2. The reset plate is moved by the disassembly column, the reset plate compresses the reset spring, and the reset plate moves the limit column, thereby controlling the relative position of the limit column and the limit hole, and in turn controlling the relative position of the positioning block and the positioning groove. This facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the positioning seat and the assembly seat, and makes it easy to assemble the required cooling structure according to the usage requirements. The height of the cooling structure can be easily adjusted by the lifting and moving guide rail, making it easy to adjust and use, and it has good practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Example 1

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the cooling structure 2 is installed on the top of the die casting body 1. The cooling structure 2 is used to improve the cooling rate of the die casting surface.
[0032] The cooling structure 2 includes an annular air-cooling pipe 201, an air inlet connecting pipe 202 and an air outlet connecting pipe 203 installed at the bottom of the annular air-cooling pipe 201, and a conformal air-cooling pipe 204 installed inside the annular air-cooling pipe 201.
[0033] Furthermore, both the annular air-cooled pipe 201 and the conformal air-cooled pipe 204 are thin-walled seamless steel pipes, with a diameter of 60mm and a wall thickness of 2mm.
[0034] Furthermore, the diameter of the air inlet connecting pipe 202 and the air outlet connecting pipe 203 is 50mm and the wall thickness is 2mm.
[0035] Furthermore, the shape of the conformal air-cooled pipe 204 is adapted to the profile of the die casting body 1, and its installation position is 100mm above the profile.
[0036] Working principle: During use, the main body 1 of the concave mold casting and the chilling structure 2 are placed together in the sand box, and conformal chills are placed on the surface of the main body 1 of the concave mold casting. The sand mixer is turned on to make the sand mold. After the casting is completed, the air supply pipe of the air compressor is connected to the air inlet connection pipe 202. The air compressor is turned on, and the compressed air intake temperature is about 28°C. It flows through the interior of the chilling structure 2, absorbs the heat of the sand mold and becomes superheated gas. The gas temperature rises to about 60°C and is discharged from the air outlet connection pipe 203. This process continuously removes heat and reduces the temperature field of the sand mold area above the casting surface, achieving efficient and uniform chilling of the casting surface.
[0037] Example 2
[0038] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1. The parts that are the same as those described above will not be repeated here. Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, to further improve the realization of this utility model, a position adjustment component 3 is provided to adjust the position of the annular air-cooling pipe 201 according to the usage requirements.
[0039] The position adjustment assembly 3 includes a lifting and moving guide rail 301 installed on one side of the annular air-cooling pipe 201, a positioning seat 302 installed on the slider side of the lifting and moving guide rail 301, a disassembly and assembly structure 303 installed inside the positioning seat 302, and an assembly seat 304 installed on one side of the annular air-cooling pipe 201.

[0041] Furthermore, the positioning block 3035 cooperates with the positioning groove, and a limiting hole 4 is provided on the positioning block 3035, which cooperates with the limiting post 3033.
[0042] Furthermore, when using this technical solution, both the bottom ends of the air inlet connecting pipe 202 and the air outlet connecting pipe 203 are connected to elastic telescopic pipes to facilitate the raising and lowering of the annular air-cooling pipe 201.
[0043] Working principle: The disassembly column 3034 drives the reset plate 3032 to move. The reset plate 3032 compresses the reset spring 3031, and the reset plate 3032 drives the limit column 3033 to move. The relative position of the limit column 3033 and the limit hole 4 is controlled, thereby controlling the relative position of the positioning block 3035 and the positioning groove. This facilitates the disassembly and assembly between the positioning seat 302 and the assembly seat 304, and facilitates the assembly of the required cooling structure 2 according to the usage requirements.
[0044] The main body 1 of the concave mold casting, the position adjustment component 3 and the chilling structure 2 are placed together in the sand box.
