[0032] This disclosure provides a flow divider cone structure for guiding melt flow. The flow divider cone structure includes a water-blocking component and a flow divider cone body. The flow divider cone body has interconnected stepped holes and cooling blind holes; the flow divider cone body also has a flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface, which extends to the main flow channel. One end of the water-blocking component is sealed and embedded in the stepped hole, and the other end of the water-blocking component extends to the cooling blind hole, so that the flow divider cone body and the water-blocking component together form a contoured cooling water channel; wherein, the inner wall of the contoured cooling water channel adjacent to the flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface matches the flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface.
[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 4 To better understand the flow divider cone structure 10 of this application, the flow divider cone structure 10 will be further explained below:
[0034] One embodiment of the flow divider cone structure 10 includes a water-blocking component 100 and a flow divider cone body 200. The flow divider cone body 200 has interconnected stepped holes 201 and cooling blind holes 202; the flow divider cone body 200 also has a flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210, which extends to the main flow channel. One end of the water-blocking component 100 is sealed and embedded in the stepped hole 201, and the other end of the water-blocking component 100 extends to the cooling blind hole 202, so that the flow divider cone body 200 and the water-blocking component 100 together form a contoured cooling water channel 203; wherein, the inner wall of the contoured cooling water channel 203 adjacent to the flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210 matches the flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210.
[0035] In this embodiment, by setting up the contour cooling water channel 203, and making the inner wall of the adjacent flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210 of the contour cooling water channel 203 match the flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210, the distance from each position point on the flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210 to the corresponding position point on the inner wall of the adjacent flow channel heat dissipation interaction surface 210 of the contour cooling water channel 203 is the same. In this way, when the cooling water is introduced into the contour cooling water channel 203 during the cooling and forming stage, the melt in the main flow channel can be cooled evenly through the contour cooling water channel 203, and the cooling efficiency of the cooling water is improved at the same time, thereby shortening the mold opening time and effectively ensuring the forming quality and production efficiency of the casting.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the flow divider cone body 200 is provided with an inlet hole 204 and an outlet hole 205; the inlet hole 204 and the outlet hole 205 are respectively connected to the contour cooling water channel 203. Thus, cooling water enters the contour cooling water channel 203 through the inlet hole 204, and the contour cooling water channel 203 can effectively and uniformly cool the melt in the main flow channel. Finally, the cooling water flows out from the outlet hole 205 and begins the next cooling cycle. Specifically, in this embodiment, the cooling water circulation is achieved by an external mold temperature controller.
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the water-proof assembly 100 includes a sealing base 110 and a water-proof plate 120; the sealing base 110 and the water-proof plate 120 are detachably connected, and one end of the water-proof plate 120 away from the sealing base 110 extends to the cooling blind hole 202; the sealing base 110 has a water inlet channel 1101, and the sealing base 110 is sealed and embedded in the stepped hole 201, so that the water inlet hole 204 is connected to one end of the contoured cooling water channel 203 through the water inlet channel 1101, and the water outlet hole 205 is connected to the other end of the contoured cooling water channel 203.
[0038] It is understood that in this embodiment, the sealing base 110 and the water-insulating plate 120 are connected by a snap-fit method. This allows the water-insulating plate 120 to be snapped onto the sealing base 110 using a material with good thermal conductivity, such as a copper sheet. This allows the water-insulating plate 120 to guide the cooling water flowing into the contoured cooling water channel 203 deep into the cooling blind hole 202, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the melt in the main channel. Therefore, the flow path of the cooling water is as follows: inlet hole 204 - inlet channel 1101 - contoured cooling water channel 203 - outlet hole 205.
[0039] like Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the end of the water-blocking plate 120 facing away from the sealing base 110 is at a predetermined distance from the cooling blind hole 202. This ensures the flow of cooling water in the contoured cooling water channel 203. Specifically, in this embodiment, the predetermined distance is typically between 5mm and 10mm. Of course, this is not a limitation, and those skilled in the art can make other choices as needed.
[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the heat dissipation interface 210 of the flow channel has a concave structure. In another embodiment, the shape of the inner wall of the contoured cooling water channel 203 adjacent to the heat dissipation interface 210 of the flow channel has the same shape as the heat dissipation interface 210 of the flow channel.
[0041] It is understood that the shape of the inner wall of the heat dissipation interaction surface 210 adjacent to the flow channel of the contoured cooling water channel 203 is the same as the shape of the concave surface structure; at the same time, the heat dissipation interaction surface 210 is part of the structure that surrounds the inner wall of the main flow channel. In this way, during the cooling and forming stage, the melt in the main flow channel can transfer heat evenly to the inner wall of the heat dissipation interaction surface 210 adjacent to the flow channel of the contoured cooling water channel 203 through the heat dissipation interaction surface 210, thereby using the cooling water to remove heat and uniformly and efficiently cool the melt in the main flow channel.
[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, the geometry of some of the contour cooling water channels 203 is the same as that of the main channel, so that the contour cooling water channels 203 can better cool the melt in the main channel evenly and improve the cooling efficiency of the cooling water, thereby shortening the mold opening time and effectively ensuring the molding quality and production efficiency of the casting.
[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the heat dissipation interaction surface 210 of the flow channel is disposed on the side of the flow divider cone body 200. No limitation is made here, and those skilled in the art can make other choices as needed.
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, both the water-blocking component 100 and the diversion cone body 200 are integrally molded structures. This ensures that the water-blocking component 100 and the diversion cone body 200 have good structural strength.
[0045] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4This application also provides a die-casting mold, including a fixed mold core 300, a movable mold core 400, and a flow divider cone structure 10 as described in any of the above embodiments; the fixed mold core 300 is fixedly installed on a fixed mold base 500, the movable mold core 400 is fixedly installed on a movable mold base 600, a portion of the flow divider cone body 200 is sequentially embedded in the side of the fixed mold core 300 and the side of the movable mold core 400, and another portion of the flow divider cone body 200 is embedded in the movable mold base 600, the flow divider cone body 200 is respectively provided with a water inlet hole 204 and a water outlet hole 205; the water inlet hole 204 and the water outlet hole 205 are both connected to the contour cooling water channel 203.
[0046] In this embodiment, the die-casting mold adopts the above-mentioned flow divider cone structure, which can better cool the melt in the main channel evenly and improve the cooling efficiency of the cooling water, thereby shortening the mold opening time of the fixed mold base 500 and the moving mold base 600, and thus effectively ensuring the molding quality and production efficiency of the casting.
[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the die-casting mold further includes a material sleeve 700, which has a feeding channel 701. The material sleeve 700 is fixedly installed on the fixed mold base 500, and one end face of the material sleeve 700 is used to abut against the stepped end face of the flow divider cone body 200, so that the material sleeve 700 and the flow divider cone body 200 together form a main channel that communicates with the feeding channel 701.
[0048] It can be understood that the flow divider cone body 200 is one of the structures that make up the main flow channel. Thus, during the injection stage of the die casting machine, the melt can be injected sequentially into the main flow channel, the flow divider channel and the cavity through the feed channel 701. In this way, during the cooling and forming stage, efficient cooling of the flow divider cone body 200 is equivalent to efficient cooling of the melt in the main flow channel.
[0049] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the die-casting mold further includes an inlet pipe connector 800 and an outlet pipe connector 900. One end of the inlet pipe connector 800 passes through the moving mold base 600 and is connected to the inlet hole 204. One end of the outlet pipe connector 900 passes through the moving mold base 600 and is connected to the outlet hole 205. The other ends of the inlet pipe connector 800 and the outlet pipe connector 900 are respectively used to connect to a mold temperature controller. Thus, the inlet pipe connector 800 and the outlet pipe connector 900 facilitate the formation of a circulation loop between the contour cooling water circuit 203 and the mold temperature controller. The mold temperature controller is prior art and will not be described in detail here.
[0050] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:
[0051] By setting up a contoured cooling water channel, and ensuring that the inner wall of the heat dissipation interaction surface adjacent to the flow channel matches the heat dissipation interaction surface of the flow channel, the distance from each point on the heat dissipation interaction surface of the flow channel to the corresponding point on the inner wall of the heat dissipation interaction surface adjacent to the flow channel is the same. In this way, during the cooling and forming stage, when the cooling water is introduced into the contoured cooling water channel, the melt in the main flow channel can be cooled more evenly through the contoured cooling water channel, and the cooling efficiency of the cooling water is improved at the same time. This shortens the mold opening time and effectively ensures the forming quality and production efficiency of the casting.
[0052] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
