Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of valve production equipment, specifically a casting device for valve production. Background Technology

[0002] The casting device for valve production is an important piece of equipment used in the valve production process to inject molten metal (such as molten iron, molten steel, etc.) into the mold to form valve castings. The casting device can ensure that the molten metal is filled into the mold cavity smoothly and orderly. During the filling process, it controls the flow direction and speed of the molten metal so that the molten metal can enter the cavity evenly and continuously, thereby avoiding damage to the mold, cavity and mandrel.

[0003] When the valve production casting device is in operation, the mandrel is usually fixed inside the mold using locating pins and locating blocks. Then, the upper mold seat and the lower mold seat are closed, and the external casting equipment injects molten metal into the mold through the casting pipe, so that the molten metal fills the gap between the forming tank and the mandrel, ensuring that the valve can form the correct internal channel during the forming process. After the casting work is completed, the valve production casting device is cooled by external cooling equipment. After cooling is completed, the upper mold seat and the lower mold seat are separated, and then the mandrel is disassembled. Finally, the operator can take out the cast valve.

[0004] Existing casting devices for valve production, while capable of installing and fixing the mandrel using locating pins and blocks, still require disassembly after the work is completed to remove the cast valve. This method is cumbersome and reduces casting efficiency. Furthermore, the locating pins and blocks occupy space in the mold, necessitating adjustments to the mold structure or the addition of extra space to accommodate these locating elements before operation, which increases mold manufacturing costs. Therefore, we propose a new casting device for valve production. Utility Model Content

The rack plates 88 are provided at the end of the connecting plate 81 near the center of the base 1. The upper gears 87 mesh with the longitudinally adjacent rack plates 88. Molding mechanism 8 also includes a mounting rod 86, gears 87, and rack plates 88. The mounting ring 84 and the internal gear ring 85 are rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom wall of the lower mold base 3. The internal gear ring 85 is set in the middle of the inner arc surface of the mounting ring 84. The gears 87 on the lower side are all meshed with the internal gear ring 85. After the valve production casting device has cooled down, the upper gear 87 drives the rack plate 88 to move through the meshing connection. The rack plate 88 drives the mandrel 83 to move through the connecting plate 81, so that the mandrel 83 is separated from the molding groove and the cast valve. This replaces the traditional method of installing and disassembling the mandrel 83 through positioning pins and positioning blocks. The operation is simple and the casting efficiency is improved. It solves the problem of needing to adjust the structure of the mold or add extra space to accommodate these positioning elements.

[0024] It also includes a control switch group 2, which is located outside the base 1. The input terminal of the control switch group 2 is electrically connected to an external power supply and can regulate the electrical components inside the equipment.

[0025] The device also includes a worm gear 9 and a worm 10. The worm gear 9 is located in the middle of the outer arc surface of the mounting ring 84. The worm 10 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the left wall of the lower mold base 3. The worm gear 9 and the worm 10 are meshed together. The drive device drives the worm 10 to rotate. During the rotation, the worm 10 drives the worm gear 9 to rotate through the meshing connection. The worm gear 9 drives the internal gear ring 85 to rotate through the mounting ring 84.

[0026] The system also includes a motor 11, which is located on the front side of the left end of the lower mold base 3. The right end of the output shaft of the motor 11 is fixedly connected to the left end of the worm gear 10. The input end of the motor 11 is electrically connected to the output end of the control switch group 2.

[0027] The system includes uprights 4, electric push rods 6, and a pouring pipe 12. Uprights 4 are located at the four corners of the upper end of the base 1, and their upper ends are fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting plate 5. Electric push rods 6 are located on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the mounting plate 5, and their lower ends are fixedly connected to the upper end of the upper mold base 7. The lower end of the upper mold base 7 and the upper end of the lower mold base 3 are provided with forming grooves. The mandrel 83 is located inside the forming groove on the lower side. The pouring pipe 12 is located in the pouring port opened in the middle of the upper end of the upper mold base 7. The input end of the electric push rod 6 is electrically connected to the output end of the control switch group 2, connecting the external pouring equipment to the pouring pipe 12. The external pouring equipment injects the molten metal into the interior of the forming groove through the pouring pipe 12. During the injection process, the external pouring equipment applies a certain pressure to fill the gap between the forming groove and the mandrel 83 with the molten metal, ensuring that the valve can form the correct internal channel during the forming process.

[0028] The working principle of the casting device for valve production provided by this utility model is as follows: During the operation of the casting device for valve production, the electric push rod 6 starts to run by adjusting the control switch group 2. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 6 extends, thereby causing the electric push rod 6 to drive the upper mold seat 7 to move downward. Finally, the lower end of the upper mold seat 7 contacts the upper end of the lower mold seat 3. Then, by adjusting the control switch group 2, the motor 11 starts to run. The output shaft of the motor 11 drives the worm gear 10 to rotate. During the rotation, the worm gear 10 drives the worm wheel 9 to rotate through the meshing connection. The worm wheel 9 drives the worm wheel 9 through the mounting ring 84. The inner gear ring 85 rotates, driving the lower gear 87 to rotate via a meshing connection. The lower gear 87 drives the upper gear 87 to rotate via a mounting rod 86. The upper gear 87 drives the rack plate 88 to move via a meshing connection. The rack plate 88 drives the mandrel 83 to move via a connecting plate 81, causing the mandrel 83 to insert into the forming groove. Finally, the ends of the mandrel 83 closest to the center of the base 1 come into contact with each other. Then, the external casting equipment is connected to the casting pipe 12. The external casting equipment injects molten metal into the forming groove through the casting pipe 12. During the injection process... During the casting process, external casting equipment applies pressure to fill the gap between the forming tank and the mandrel 83 with molten metal, ensuring that the valve can form the correct internal channel during the forming process. After casting is completed, external cooling equipment cools the casting device used for valve production. After cooling, the motor 11 starts running through the control switch group 2. The output shaft of the motor 11 drives the worm gear 10 to rotate in reverse. During the rotation, the worm gear 10 drives the worm wheel 9 to rotate through meshing connection. The worm wheel 9 drives the internal gear ring 85 to rotate through the mounting ring 84. The internal gear ring 85 drives the lower side through meshing connection. The gear 87 rotates, and the lower gear 87 drives the upper gear 87 to rotate via the mounting rod 86. The upper gear 87 drives the rack plate 88 to move through meshing connection. The rack plate 88 drives the mandrel 83 to move through the connecting plate 81, so that the mandrel 83 is separated from the molding groove and the valve after casting. Then, through the regulation of the control switch group 2, the electric push rod 6 starts to run. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 6 shortens, so that the electric push rod 6 drives the upper mold seat 7 to move upward, so that the lower end of the upper mold seat 7 is separated from the upper end of the lower mold seat 3. Finally, the operator can take out the valve after casting.

[0029] It is worth noting that the electric push rod 6 disclosed in the above embodiments can be YRJ0905, the motor 11 can be 5IK200A-AF, and the control switch group 2 is provided with control buttons corresponding to the electric push rod 6 and the motor 11 for controlling their switching.
