Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an aluminum ingot casting machine, specifically a device for increasing the production capacity of aluminum ingot casting units for remelting, and belongs to the field of aluminum ingot casting technology. Background Technology

[0002] An aluminum ingot casting machine is used to form aluminum parts. A traditional aluminum ingot casting machine includes a sprocket conveyor, a motor that drives the sprocket to rotate, and a gearbox. The sprocket conveyor has a mold mounted on its chain plate. The mold has a cavity for forming aluminum parts. The aluminum melting furnace pours molten aluminum into the mold, which is cooled during the sprocket conveying process. After the sprocket of the sprocket conveyor passes through the rotating shaft, the mold with its opening facing upwards flips over, and the mold opening faces downwards. The cooled aluminum ingot can fall off due to its own weight, thus demolding the aluminum ingot.

[0003] After the aluminum ingot has cooled, common aluminum ingot casting machines typically require manual labor to knock the mold with a hand tool or use a tool to dig the aluminum ingot out of the mold to achieve demolding. Regardless of the method used, it requires manpower, and in order to accommodate the speed of manual operation, the mold conveying speed is generally slow, which affects the overall production capacity. At the same time, common molds are fixedly installed, and when different sizes of aluminum ingots need to be cast, the disassembly and replacement of the mold is relatively complicated, which also affects the overall production capacity.

[0004] Therefore, this paper proposes a device to increase the production capacity of aluminum ingot casting units for remelting. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention proposes a device to improve the production capacity of aluminum ingot casting units for remelting, in order to solve the problem of slow demolding speed in aluminum ingot casting machines commonly found in the prior art, while also achieving the goal of rapid mold replacement for aluminum ingots.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a device for improving the production capacity of an aluminum ingot casting unit for remelting, comprising a support frame, sprockets mounted on both ends of the support frame via rotating shafts, chains installed between the sprockets, a fixing rod fixed between two chains, a base fixed to the other end of the fixing rod, a mold provided on the upper surface of the base, a fixing device provided between the base and the mold, the fixing device including a locking block fixed to the bottom surface of the mold, a locking groove provided on the upper surface of the base, the locking block engaging with the locking groove, and a striking device provided on the upper surface of the support frame.

[0007] The base has a sliding groove on its bottom surface, and a slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove. A limit block is fixed on one side of each of the two sliders that are close to each other. A limit groove corresponding to the limit block is opened on the side of the locking block. The limit groove extends through the sliding groove, and the limit block is engaged with the limit groove.

[0008] Each of the two sliders is fixed with a return spring and a return telescopic rod on one side away from each other. The other end of the return spring and the return telescopic rod is fixed to the slider. The slider can be reset by the elastic force of the return spring.

[0009] The striking device includes upright plates fixed to both ends of a support frame. A rotating frame is hinged to one side of the two upright plates that are close to each other. A crossbar is fixed to the other end of the rotating frame. A rotating sleeve is sleeved on the outer surface of the crossbar. A striking hammer is fixed on the outer surface of the rotating sleeve.

[0010] Furthermore, two sets of fixing rings are fixed to the outer surface of the crossbar, and the rotating sleeve is located between the corresponding fixing rings.

[0011] A support plate is fixed to the side of the support frame. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the left side of the support plate. A flow divider is fixed to the other end of the rotating rod. Multiple flow dividers are fixed to the outer surface of the flow divider. The aluminum liquid is guided to the flow divider by an external flow guiding device. The flow divider drives the flow dividers to rotate and guide the aluminum liquid to different molds.

[0012] A motor is mounted on the side of the support frame, and the output end of the motor is fixed to the sprocket. The chain located on the upper surface of the support frame overlaps the upper surface of the support frame.

[0013] This utility model provides a device for increasing the production capacity of aluminum ingot casting units for remelting, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This equipment for increasing the production capacity of aluminum ingot casting units for remelting can, when it is necessary to disassemble and replace the mold, move the slider to drive the limit block to disengage from the limit groove, so that the block can be separated from the limit groove and thus the block can be separated from the base. The block drives the mold to separate from the base, thereby completing the mold disassembly and achieving the purpose of rapid replacement of aluminum ingot mold.

[0015] 2. The equipment for increasing the production capacity of aluminum ingot casting units for remelting is equipped with a striking device. When the chain drives the fixed rod to move, the fixed rod moves to the position of the rotating frame and pushes the rotating frame to rotate. The rotation of the rotating frame causes the striking hammer to rise. Then the fixed rod disengages from the rotating frame, and the rotating frame resets, causing the striking hammer to fall rapidly and strike the mold, thus assisting the casting to separate from the mold.

The fixing device 7 includes a locking block 701 fixed to the bottom surface of the mold 6, a locking groove is provided on the upper surface of the base 5, and the locking block 701 engages with the locking groove. A striking device 8 is provided on the upper surface of the support frame 1.

[0028] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The bottom surface of the base 5 is provided with a sliding groove, and a slider 702 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove. On the side of the two sliders 702 that are close to each other, a limit block 703 is fixed. The side of the locking block 701 is provided with a limit groove corresponding to the limit block 703. The limit groove extends through the sliding groove, and the limit block 703 is engaged with the limit groove. On the side of the two sliders 702 that are far from each other, a return spring 704 and a return telescopic rod 705 are fixed. The other end of the return spring 704 and the return telescopic rod 705 is fixed to the slider 702. The slider 702 can be reset by the elastic force of the return spring 704.

[0029] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The striking device 8 includes upright plates 801 fixed to both ends of the support frame 1. A rotating frame 802 is hinged to one side of the two upright plates 801 that are close to each other. A crossbar 803 is fixed to the other end of the rotating frame 802. A rotating sleeve 804 is sleeved on the outer surface of the crossbar 803. A striking hammer 805 is fixed on the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 804. Two sets of fixing rings 806 are fixed on the outer surface of the crossbar 803. The rotating sleeve 804 is located between its corresponding fixing rings 806.

[0030] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A support plate 9 is fixed to the side of the support frame 1. A rotating rod 10 is rotatably connected to the left side of the support plate 9. A flow divider 11 is fixed to the other end of the rotating rod 10. Multiple flow dividers 12 are fixed to the outer surface of the flow divider 11 at equal intervals. The aluminum liquid is guided to the flow divider 11 by an external flow guiding device.
