[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0016] See Figure 1 A cooling device for aluminum casting production includes a base 1, on which a pair of bearing seats 2 and a slide rail 3 are respectively provided. A lead screw 4 is provided between the bearing seats 2. The lead screw 4 is driven by a motor 5. A threaded block 6 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 4. The slide rail 3 is located below the lead screw 4, and the lower part of the threaded block 6 is slidably connected to the slide rail 3. A working box 7 is provided above the threaded block 6. A partition 8 is provided inside the working box 7, dividing the working box into a liquid cooling zone 9 and an air cooling zone 10. Coolant is injected into the liquid cooling zone 9. Mounting plates 11 are provided on the left and right side walls of the air cooling zone 10. Small fans 12 are provided on the mounting plates 11. Multiple columns 13 are also provided on the base 1. The top of the columns 13 is provided with the same top plate 14. A large fan 15 and a pair of telescopic rods 16 are provided at the bottom of the top plate 14. A connecting rod 17 is provided at the piston rod end of the telescopic rod 16. A filter plate 18 is provided between the connecting rods 17. Specifically, the aluminum casting is placed in the liquid cooling zone 9, which is on the filter plate 18, and immersed in the coolant for liquid cooling. After liquid cooling is completed, the telescopic rod 16 is activated to raise the filter plate 18 and turn on the large fan 15 to initially air cool the upper surface of the aluminum casting. At the same time, most of the coolant can drip into the liquid cooling zone. After a period of time, the motor 5 is started, which drives the working box 7 to move through the lead screw 4, slide rail 3 and threaded block 6, moving the air cooling zone 10 below the filter plate 18, that is, below the aluminum casting, to air cool the lower surface of the aluminum casting. This achieves air cooling of both the upper and lower surfaces simultaneously, thereby improving the air cooling effect and processing efficiency.

[0017] In this embodiment, the height of the partition 8 is lower than the height of the working chamber 7. This is to ensure that the raised filter plate 18 can smoothly switch between the liquid cooling zone 9 and the air cooling zone 10, while also ensuring that the filter plate 18 can switch within the working chamber 7.

[0018] In this embodiment, a ventilation opening 19 is provided on the top plate 14, and a protective net 20 is provided to cover the ventilation opening 19. The ventilation opening 19 is for the needs of the large fan 15, and the protective net 20 is used to protect the large fan 15.

[0019] In this embodiment, the small fan 12 is inclined, and a through hole 21 is provided on the mounting plate 11. The inclined arrangement of the small fan 12 maximizes the air-cooling area and improves the air-cooling effect; the through hole 21 is provided for the needs of the small fan 12.

[0020] In this embodiment, a liquid collection tank 22 is provided at the bottom of the air-cooled zone 10. The liquid collection tank 22 is used to collect water droplets dripping from the filter plate 18 and to process them later.

[0021] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and is not intended to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
