Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical manufacturing technology, specifically to a rapid cooling and shaping device. Background Technology
[0002] In many industrial production sectors, workpiece cooling and shaping is a critical process. For example, in the hardware processing and forming industry, after high-temperature processing, workpieces need to be quickly cooled and shaped to meet the requirements of subsequent processing or use. If cooling and shaping are not timely or effective, it can lead to problems such as workpiece deformation and performance degradation, seriously affecting product quality and production efficiency.
[0003] Currently, most common rapid cooling and shaping technologies employ traditional cooling equipment, using simple spray devices to spray cooling water onto the workpiece surface through nozzles, utilizing the scouring and heat transfer of the water flow to achieve the cooling purpose.
[0004] However, these traditional technologies have significant drawbacks. Simple spray devices provide poor uniformity in cooling the workpiece; due to factors such as nozzle layout and water pressure, different parts of the workpiece experience varying degrees of cooling, easily leading to workpiece deformation or inconsistent performance. Furthermore, traditional equipment is inadequate in terms of maintenance and operational convenience. This rapid cooling and shaping device aims to solve these problems by improving cooling efficiency, uniformity, and ease of operation and maintenance through a unique structural design. Utility Model Content
[0005] Purpose of the utility model: In order to overcome the above shortcomings, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rapid cooling and shaping device. The device uses a water pump to quickly pump cooling water from the water tank to the water distribution component. The water distribution component uses the water distribution pipe and multiple spray nozzles to spray and cool the workpiece placed on the shelf from all directions, effectively improving the cooling efficiency. The device uses the rotating and pressing cylinder of the limiting component and the pressure block with adjusting screws at the end to accurately fix the shelf and ensure the stability of the workpiece position during the cooling process.
[0006] Technical Solution: This utility model provides a rapid cooling and shaping device comprising: a water tank, a frame, a cooling box, and a cooling assembly. The water tank has an opening at its upper end; the frame is mounted within the opening, and the cooling box is positioned above the frame to accommodate the workpiece; the cooling assembly is positioned above the opening and is used to pump cooling water from the water tank into the cooling box to cool the workpiece. The cooling assembly can quickly draw cooling water from the water tank into the cooling box, rapidly cooling the workpiece and greatly improving cooling efficiency. The cooling box, located above the frame, is specifically designed to hold the workpiece, providing it with a stable cooling environment.
[0007] Furthermore, this application discloses a rapid cooling and shaping device. The cooling assembly includes a water pump, a water distribution assembly, and a shelf. The water pump is mounted on an opening via the shelf. The pump's inlet is connected to a pumping pipe extending to the bottom of a water tank. The pump's outlet is connected to a flexible hose, the other end of which is connected to the water distribution assembly. The water distribution assembly is installed in the cooling tank for spraying and cooling the workpiece. The water pump is stably mounted on the water tank opening with the help of the shelf. The pumping pipe extends to the bottom of the tank, allowing for precise extraction of cooling water. Utilizing the pump's powerful motor, the cooling water is rapidly delivered to the water distribution assembly via the flexible hose, achieving efficient water circulation. The water distribution assembly operates within the cooling tank, ensuring that the cooling water delivered by the pump comprehensively covers the workpiece with a suitable spray angle and flow rate.
[0008] Furthermore, in this application, a rapid cooling and shaping device is provided, wherein the cooling box includes an upper box and a lower box, the water distribution assembly is located in the lower box and includes a pair of water distribution pipes, the water distribution pipes are provided with multiple spray heads upward through connecting hoses, the spray heads extend into the upper box, the upper box is provided with a bottom plate and a top plate, the spray heads are mounted on the bottom plate, the top plate is located above the bottom plate and connected by connecting columns, the top plate is provided with a limiting assembly and a placement plate, the workpiece is placed on the placement plate, the limiting assembly is used to limit the position of the placement plate, the bottom plate, the top plate and the placement plate are all provided with a number of drainage holes, the lower box is provided with a first drain outlet, the first drain outlet is used to discharge the cooling water sprayed by the spray heads. The cooling chamber is divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The upper chamber is mainly used to place the workpieces, while the lower chamber houses the water distribution assembly. This layered design makes the cooling process layout clear, facilitating targeted cooling operations and water flow management. A pair of water distribution pipes in the water distribution assembly are connected to multiple spray nozzles that extend upwards through flexible hoses. These nozzles extend into the upper chamber and are mounted on the bottom plate, providing omnidirectional spraying of the workpieces on the shelf from the bottom up. This ensures uniform heating of all parts of the workpieces, effectively improving the cooling effect. A limiting component on the top plate precisely positions the shelf, preventing displacement during cooling and ensuring the workpieces remain in a stable cooling position. Simultaneously, the shelf provides a platform for placing and retrieving workpieces. Several drainage holes are provided on the bottom plate, top plate, and shelf, which, together with the first drain outlet of the lower chamber, allow the sprayed cooling water to flow smoothly back to the lower chamber and be discharged through the drain outlet, achieving cooling water circulation and maintaining the efficient operation of the cooling system.
[0009] Furthermore, in this application, a rapid cooling and shaping device is provided. The top plate and the placement plate are both rectangular. The limiting assembly includes four rotary pressing cylinders, which are located at the four corners of the top plate. The placement plate is placed on the support platform of the rotary pressing cylinder body. The rectangular design of the top plate and the placement plate, combined with the rotary pressing cylinders at the four corners of the top plate, allows for precise positioning of the placement plate. By placing the placement plate on the support platform of the rotary pressing cylinder body, and then pressing down with the cylinder, the placement plate is effectively fixed, preventing displacement of the workpiece due to vibration or other factors during the cooling process, ensuring a stable cooling process. The rotary pressing cylinders can rotate flexibly, making it convenient for operators to place the placement plate on the support platform. The positioning operation is simple and quick. Compared to traditional fixed limiting structures, this design facilitates the placement and removal of the placement plate, improving the convenience of production operations.
[0010] Furthermore, in a rapid cooling and shaping device of this application, the output end of the rotary pressing cylinder is provided with a pressure block, and the end of the pressure block is provided with an adjusting screw, which is perpendicular to the shelf. The pressure block at the output end of the rotary pressing cylinder, and the adjusting screw at the end of the pressure block, allow the operator to precisely adjust the pressure applied by the pressure block to the shelf according to the material, shape, and characteristics of different workpieces and the shelf. This ensures that the shelf is stable when fixed, without damaging the workpiece or shelf due to excessive pressure.
[0011] Furthermore, in one rapid cooling and shaping device of this application, a pair of handles are provided on the shelf for moving the shelf. The handles on the shelf provide the operator with convenient points of force application. When it is necessary to place the shelf containing the workpiece into or remove it from the cooling box, the operator can easily move it by holding the handles, significantly reducing the difficulty of handling.
[0012] Furthermore, in a rapid cooling and shaping device of this application, the top of the upper chamber is provided with a cover, which can be flipped and closed by a hydraulic rod. The cover on the top of the upper chamber is flipped and closed by a hydraulic rod. The operator can easily control the opening and closing of the cover using the hydraulic rod, facilitating opening the cover when the workpiece is placed or removed, and closing the cover during the cooling process to ensure a relatively sealed cooling environment.
[0013] Furthermore, in one rapid cooling and shaping device of this application, the first drain outlet faces downwards and is funnel-shaped. The funnel-shaped drain outlet gradually narrows, guiding the water flow to concentrate and flow downwards.
[0014] Furthermore, in this application, a rapid cooling and shaping device includes a water tank with a second drain outlet and a set of rollers at its lower end, and a control panel mounted on the frame. The second drain outlet at the lower end of the water tank facilitates rapid drainage of the water when cleaning, maintenance, or cooling water replacement is required, ensuring efficient cleaning. The set of rollers at the lower end of the water tank provides mobility for the entire cooling and shaping device. The control panel on the frame allows for centralized control of various components of the device, such as the water pump, rotating downward pressure cylinder, and hydraulic rods. Operators can easily adjust equipment operating parameters and monitor the equipment's operating status in real time through the control panel, achieving intelligent operation.
[0015] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. The rapid cooling and shaping device of this utility model uses a water pump to quickly pump cooling water from the water tank to the water distribution component.

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0023] Example 1
[0024] like Figure 1 , 2 The rapid cooling and shaping device shown in Figure 3.
[0025] In a hardware processing workshop, a batch of metal workpieces that have undergone high-temperature processing needs to be cooled and shaped. This embodiment uses this rapid cooling and shaping device for operation.
[0026] First, inject an appropriate amount of cooling water into the water tank 1 and start the water pump 41 through the control panel 21 on the frame 2. The water pump 41 is installed on the shelf 43, which is set on the opening 11 of the water tank 1. The water pump 44 connected to its water inlet extends to the bottom of the water tank 1 to draw up the cooling water and deliver it to the water distribution assembly 42 through the hose 45 connected to the outlet.
[0027] The water distribution assembly 42 is located in the lower chamber 32 of the cooling box 3. Its pair of water distribution pipes 421 are connected upwards to multiple spray heads 42 via connecting hoses 422. The spray heads 423 extend to the upper chamber 3 and are installed on the bottom plate 311. Metal workpieces are placed on the shelf 315. The shelf 315 is located below the top plate 313. The top plate 313 and the bottom plate 311 are connected by four connecting columns 312.
[0028] When placing the shelf 315, it is positioned on the support platform of the four rotating pressing cylinders 3141 at the four corners of the top plate 313. The pressure block 31411 at the output end of the rotating pressing cylinder 3141 is equipped with an adjusting screw 31412. Depending on the workpiece and the shelf 315, the pressure of the pressure block 31411 on the shelf 315 is adjusted by the adjusting screw 31412 to ensure the shelf 315 is placed securely without damaging the workpiece. A pair of handles 3151 on the shelf 315 facilitate handling by operators or robotic arms.
[0029] The cover 316 on top of the upper chamber 31 is controlled by a hydraulic rod. It opens when a workpiece is placed and closes after placement, ensuring a relatively closed cooling environment. Cooling water is sprayed from the spray head 423 to provide all-around cooling to the workpiece. The sprayed water flows through the drain holes on the bottom plate 311, top plate 313, and shelf 315 to the lower chamber 32. The first drain outlet 321 on the lower chamber 32 is funnel-shaped and faces downwards directly towards the opening 11 of the water tank 1, allowing the water to flow back to the water tank 1 and achieve cooling water circulation.
[0030] When it is necessary to clean or replace the cooling water in water tank 1, the water in water tank 1 can be quickly drained by opening the second drain port 12 at the bottom of water tank 1. If the workshop layout needs to be adjusted, the rollers 13 at the bottom of the device can be pushed to move the entire cooling and shaping device to a suitable position. During the cooling process, the operator can monitor the equipment's operating status in real time through the control panel 21 and adjust the operating parameters of components such as the water pump 41, the rotating downward pressure cylinder 3141, and the hydraulic rod to ensure that the cooling work proceeds smoothly.
[0031] The above embodiments are exemplary and are intended to illustrate the technical concept and features of this utility model, so that those skilled in the art can understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
