Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of casting technology, specifically to a riser structure based on high-toughness and wear-resistant modified high-manganese steel. Background Technology

[0002] Molten steel casting is the process of pouring molten steel into a mold and allowing it to cool and solidify to form a casting. It is a key step in the casting process. Molten steel casting can produce steel castings with complex shapes and precise dimensions. For some large and heavy castings, such as large wind power equipment and mining machinery, molten steel casting is the main production method.

[0003] During the pouring process, molten steel undergoes liquid shrinkage due to temperature reduction, leading to defects such as voids and shrinkage cavities inside the casting. A riser, as a cavity storing molten metal, provides additional molten metal to the casting, compensating for the voids caused by volume shrinkage during solidification and effectively preventing shrinkage cavities and porosity. Existing risers all employ automatic molten steel replenishment methods. For example, patent application number CN201611247894.X discloses a riser including a riser body with an insulation layer on its inner wall.

[0004] The above-mentioned feeding method relies on the static pressure of the molten metal in the riser and gate, which often requires the injection of excessive molten metal. This results in a large number of residual molten metal in the gate and riser after feeding, reducing the process yield. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on the shortcomings of existing technologies in using static pressure to compensate for molten steel in riser structures, this utility model provides a riser structure based on high-toughness and wear-resistant modified high-manganese steel.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0007] The riser structure based on high-toughness and wear-resistant modified high-manganese steel includes a riser body, an internal vertical riser cavity, and a molten steel addition channel communicating with the riser cavity on its sidewall. The riser cavity contains a pressure compensation structure that vertically presses down on the molten steel within it. As the main component and space for storing molten steel and feeding the casting, the vertical arrangement of the riser cavity facilitates feeding the casting under gravity, reducing defects such as shrinkage cavities and porosity during solidification.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the vent has a heat-insulating layer, above which is an isolation cavity. The isolation cavity is used for heat insulation to prevent the temperature in this area from becoming too high, thus allowing for the installation of structures such as springs.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the pressure compensation structure includes a rod that penetrates the top wall and partition of the isolation chamber and a high-temperature resistant pressure head disposed at the bottom end of the rod. The side wall of the pressure head matches the side wall of the riser cavity. When compensating for molten steel, the pressure head slides downward to apply pressure to the molten steel in the riser cavity.

[0010] Preferably, the rod has an annular platform, and a spring is fitted onto the side wall of the rod above the annular platform. The spring and the annular platform are located within an isolation cavity. The spring applies a spring force to the annular platform, causing the pressing head to exert a downward force. This structure is used to apply a downward spring force to the pressing head.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting head is provided at the top of the rod. The limiting head is used to limit the downward stroke of the rod.

[0012] Preferably, the riser cavity is cylindrical. The cylindrical riser cavity has a simple structure, is easy to process, and allows molten steel to be evenly distributed within it, which is beneficial for pressure transmission and molten steel flow, while also helping to improve the strength and stability of the riser.

[0013] Preferably, the riser body has an arc-shaped molten steel addition pipe on its side wall, and the space inside the molten steel addition pipe serves as a molten steel addition channel. The arc-shaped molten steel addition pipe is reasonably designed to facilitate the addition and flow of molten steel and reduce splashing and loss of molten steel during the addition process; the molten steel addition channel serves as the passage for molten steel to enter the riser cavity, ensuring that the molten steel can smoothly enter the riser for feeding.

[0014] Preferably, the top of the molten steel adding pipe is horizontal, and the top of the molten steel adding pipe is equipped with a removable cover. The removable cover makes it easy to open when molten steel needs to be added, and can also be used to prevent heat loss from the molten steel and the entry of impurities.

[0015] Preferably, the inner ring of the bottom end of the riser body is a flat surface, and its outer ring is a curved surface with an arc shape. This structure forms a notch in the outer ring for easy disassembly.

[0016] Preferably, the riser body is made of high-toughness, wear-resistant modified high-manganese steel. High-toughness, wear-resistant modified high-manganese steel has excellent wear resistance and toughness, can withstand the high temperature of molten steel and the pressure during the feeding process, is not easily damaged, extends the service life of the riser, and also helps improve the quality of castings and production efficiency.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: By setting a pressurizing device, the molten steel can be pressurized appropriately during replenishment, thereby improving the efficiency of replenishment and allowing the molten steel to be replenished in a timely manner, avoiding the need for additional heating of the molten steel due to excessive replenishment time; in addition, it can achieve effective replenishment at a lower metal liquid level, reducing the amount of molten steel injected, thereby reducing the residual amount of molten steel and improving the utilization rate of molten steel.
