[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0026] Example
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The diagram shown is a schematic of the Q-axis casting in the embodiment;
[0028] One end of the Q-axis casting 1 has multiple corner points 2. The corner points 2 are prone to residue during the sand removal process and are difficult to clean.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The diagram shown is a front view of the sand removal structure in the embodiment;
[0030] This device includes:
[0031] 10 brackets;
[0032] The jet assembly includes a mounting block 21, which is rotatably mounted on the bracket 10. An air storage pipe 22 and a nozzle 23 are sequentially arranged at the bottom end of the mounting block 21. The jet angle of the nozzle 23 can be adjusted by rotating the mounting block 21.
[0033] The bracket 10 serves as the basic support structure for the entire device, providing mounting points for the jet assembly.
[0034] In one embodiment, the jet assembly is configured in two sets, with the gas storage pipe 22 and the nozzle 23 arranged to ensure that the gas can flow from the gas storage pipe 22 to the nozzle 23 and be ejected, thereby removing sand particles and other impurities from the corner point 2 of the Q-axis casting 1.
[0035] Specifically, the gas storage pipe 22 is equipped with a connector 221, which is mainly used to connect the external high-pressure gas source and the gas storage pipe 22 to ensure that the high-pressure gas can smoothly enter the gas storage pipe 22 and be sprayed out through the nozzle 23.
[0036] By rotating the mounting block 21, the angle of the nozzle 23 relative to the surface of the Q-axis casting 1 or its corner point 2 can be changed, thereby achieving the best sand removal effect according to the actual situation.
[0037] Specifically, the mounting block 21 achieves rotational engagement with the bracket 10 through a set rotating shaft.
[0038] The bracket 10 can be mounted on the track using a pulley system based on existing technology. When sand removal is required, the bracket 10 can be moved along the track to a designated position or cleaned along the movement path by manual or electric drive.
[0039] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 The diagram shown is a front view of the sand removal structure in the embodiment; Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of the fit between the pin and the hole in the embodiment.
[0040] The locking assembly includes an arc-shaped guide plate 31 protruding from the bracket 10. The shape of the arc-shaped guide plate 31 matches the rotation path of the end of the mounting block 21 away from the gas storage pipe 22. The arc-shaped guide plate 31 has several pin holes 32. The end of the mounting block 21 near the arc-shaped guide plate 31 is elastically provided with a pin 33, which can be inserted and engaged with any one of the pins 33.
[0041] The arc-shaped guide plate 31 ensures that the mounting block 21 moves along a predetermined path during rotation. Several pin holes 32 are distributed on the arc-shaped guide plate 31. The pin 33 is elastically set at one end of the mounting block 21 near the arc-shaped guide plate 31. It can be inserted into the corresponding pin hole 32 after the mounting block 21 is rotated to the required angle to lock the mounting block 21 and keep the jet angle of the nozzle 23 unchanged.
[0042] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, Figure 4 The diagram shown is a front view of the pin on the mounting block in the embodiment; Figure 5 The diagram shown is a side view of the structure of the pin on the mounting block in the embodiment.
[0043] The mounting block 21 has a mounting groove 34 at one end near the arc-shaped guide plate 31. A spring 35 is installed in the mounting groove 34. The pin 33 is connected to the spring 35 and is movably installed in the mounting groove 34. In the natural state, the top of the pin 33 extends out of the mounting groove 34.
[0044] Mounting slot 34 is used to accommodate spring 35 and pin 33, ensuring that pin 33 can move freely longitudinally in mounting slot 34 and extend or retract when needed.
[0045] Spring 35 is installed in mounting groove 34, with one end fixed to the bottom of the groove and the other end connected to pin 33. The function of spring 35 is to provide elastic force so that pin 33 remains extended without external force, thereby automatically inserting into pin hole 32 on arc guide plate 31 for locking.
[0046] A through hole 36 communicating with the mounting slot 34 is provided on the front side wall of the mounting block 21. An extension post 37 is also provided on the pin 33, and the other end of the extension post 37 extends to the outside through the through hole 36.
[0047] The extension post 37 is fixed to the pin 33 and extends to the outside through the through hole 36, so that the operator can control the up and down movement of the pin 33 through the extension post 37.
[0048] When unlocking is required, pressing down the extension post 37 will press the pin 33 into the mounting groove 34, causing the pin 33 to disengage from the pin hole 32 on the arc-shaped guide plate 31; when locking is required, after rotating the mounting block 21 to the appropriate position, the extension post 37 will be released, and the pin 33 will automatically pop out and insert into the pin hole 32 under the action of the spring 35.
[0049] Working principle: When in use, high-pressure gas enters the gas storage pipe 22 through connector 221 and is sprayed onto the surface of the casting from the nozzle 23 at a set angle. The powerful impact of the high-pressure gas flow can effectively remove sand particles and other impurities from the surface of the casting. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the nozzle 23, the operator presses down the extension column 37 to press the pin 33 into the mounting groove 34, so that it is disengaged from the pin hole 32. At this time, the mounting block 21 can rotate freely on the path defined by the arc guide plate 31. After the operator rotates the mounting block 21 to the required angle, he releases the extension column 37. Due to the elastic force provided by the spring 35, the pin 33 automatically pops out and inserts into the new pin hole 32, locking the position of the mounting block 21 and keeping the nozzle 23 at the new angle.
[0050] It also provides Q-axis castings for multi-axis linkage CNC machining centers, and the above-mentioned sand removal device is used for the casting of Q-axis castings.
[0051] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
