Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of die casting mold technology, and in particular to a device for changing die casting molds. Background Technology

[0002] In the die-casting production process, mold replacement is a critical step that directly affects production efficiency and product quality. Traditional die-casting mold replacement requires machine shutdown for disassembly and reinstallation, which is time-consuming and complex, resulting in low production efficiency.

The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the preferred embodiment of this utility model, a die-casting mold replacement device includes: a die-casting machine 1, a dual-station slide rail structure 2, a translational replacement structure 3, and a mold 4.

[0024] The die-casting machine 1 includes a molten injection nozzle 101 and a base 102; the translational replacement structure 3 is disposed on the top of the base 102, the dual-station slide rail structure 2 is disposed on the top of the translational replacement structure 3, and the mold 4 is placed on the dual-station slide rail structure 2.

[0025] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the dual-station slide rail structure 2 includes a first slide rail 201, a second slide rail 202, two slide tables 203, two mold seats 204, and two locking structures 205. The first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 202 are parallel to each other and are both disposed on the top of the translational replacement structure 3. The two slide tables 203 are slidably connected to the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 202 respectively. The top of each of the two slide tables 203 is connected to the mold seat 204. The mold 4 is placed on the top of the mold seat 204. The two mold seats 204 slide back and forth on the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 202 respectively via the slide tables 203. The locking structures 205 are used to lock the position of the mold seats 204. The first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 202 are arranged in parallel and respectively carry two molds 4 to realize alternating operation. The slide tables 203 slide along the slide rails, driving the mold seats 204 to move, so that the mold 4 moves to the correct position.

[0026] The translational replacement structure 3 includes a third slide rail 301, a translation stage 302, a hydraulic moving structure 303, and a limiter 304. The third slide rail 301 is disposed on the top of the base 102. The translation stage 302 is slidably connected to the third slide rail 301. One end of the hydraulic moving structure 303 is connected to the translation stage 302, and the other end is connected to the base 102. The limiter 304 is disposed on the top left side of the base 102 and is used to limit the degree to which the translation stage 302 slides to the left. The translation stage 302 slides left and right on the third slide rail 301 via the hydraulic moving structure 303. The hydraulic moving structure 303 provides stable thrust to ensure that the translation stage 302 moves quickly and smoothly, shortening the mold 4 switching time. The limiter prevents the translation stage from overtravel due to inertia and prevents equipment collision damage.

[0027] When the die-casting machine 1 needs to replace the mold 4 located on the second slide rail 202, the hydraulic moving structure 303 pushes the translation table 302 to move until the sprue of the mold 4 on the second slide rail 202 is directly below the melt injection nozzle 101 of the die-casting machine 1.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features:

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the mold base 204 includes a clamping structure 2041. The mold 4 is fixed to the top of the mold base 204 via the clamping structure 2041. The clamping structure 2041 includes two clamping posts 20411, a plurality of first hydraulic cylinders 20412, and two clamping blocks 20413. The clamping posts 20411 are provided on both the left and right sides of the mold base 204. The clamping blocks 20413 are connected to the clamping posts 20411 via the first hydraulic cylinders 20412. The mold 4 is located between the two clamping blocks 20413. The clamping structure 2041 drives the clamping blocks 20413 to clamp the two sides of the mold 4 via the first hydraulic cylinders 20412, completing the clamping of the mold 4 within a few seconds, ensuring the mold 4 is fixed, and reducing the intensity of manual operation.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the locking structure 205 includes a bolt movable groove 2051, a bolt 2052, and a plurality of locking holes 2053. The bolt movable groove 2051 is disposed at the bottom of the clamping post 20411, and the bolt 2052 is disposed in the bolt movable groove 2051. The bolt 2052 is L-shaped, with one end extending laterally out of the bolt movable groove 2051 and the other end extending downward out of the bolt movable groove 2051. The plurality of locking holes 2053 are evenly distributed on the top of the translation stage 302, and the bolt movable groove 2051 and the locking holes 2053 correspond to each other. The bolt 2052 is mechanically interlocked with the locking holes 2053 on the translation stage 302, which enhances the vibration resistance of the mold base and prevents the mold 4 from shifting during the die-casting process.

[0031] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the hydraulic moving structure 303 includes a second hydraulic cylinder 3031 and a fixed base 3032. The fixed base 3032 is disposed on the top right side of the base 102. One end of the second hydraulic cylinder 3031 is connected to the fixed base 3032, and the other end of the second hydraulic cylinder 3031 is connected to the translation stage 302. The second hydraulic cylinder 3031 drives the translation stage 302 to move left and right 301 along the third slide rail, so that the mold 4 on the first slide rail 201 and the mold 4 on the second slide rail 202 can be switched.

[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the mold base 204 is provided with a heating structure 2042, which includes a heating tube 20421, a heat insulation layer 20422, and a temperature control module 20423. The heating tube 20421 is disposed inside the mold base 204, the heat insulation layer 20422 is disposed at the bottom and around the sides of the mold base 204, and the temperature control module 20423 is disposed on the inner side of the top of the mold base 204. The heating tube 20421 is embedded inside the mold base 204, and the temperature is adjusted in real time by the temperature control module 20423, so that the mold 4 is preheated evenly, reducing internal defects in the casting.

[0033] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the limiter 304 includes a damper 3041, a limit seat 3042, and a limit block 3043; the limit seat 3042 is connected to the top of the base 102, and the limit block 3043 is connected to the limit seat 3042 via the damper 3041. The limiter 304 absorbs impact energy through the damper 3041, preventing the translation stage from overtraveling due to inertia, preventing equipment collision damage, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0034] The process for switching between different molds in this utility model is as follows:

[0035] Place the mold 4 that needs to be replaced on the mold base 204 on the second slide rail 202, and fix it on the top of the mold base 204 by the clamping structure 2041. Then use the heating structure 2042 to preheat the mold 4.

[0036] After the production of the previous die casting is completed, the mold 4 on the first slide rail 202 is separated from the molten nozzle 101. Then, the translation replacement structure 3 is activated, so that the hydraulic moving structure 303 pushes the translation table 302 to move. At the same time, the position of the mold 4 on the second slide rail 202 is adjusted until the sprue of the mold 4 on the second slide rail 202 is directly below the molten nozzle 101 of the die casting machine 1. Then, the mold seat 204 on the second slide rail 202 is locked on the translation table 302 by the locking structure 205. At this time, the mold replacement is completed.

[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
