Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of alloy smelting and casting technology, specifically to a zinc alloy casting device. Background Technology

[0002] Ingots are made by pouring molten metal into reusable molds. After solidification, these ingots are further machined into various new shapes and are widely used in the modern metal casting field.

[0003] In the production process of zinc alloys, zinc raw materials are first melted in a smelting furnace, then the alloy is prepared, and finally cast. Currently, when casting molten alloy, a tilting casting method is usually used. However, there is a certain height difference between the smelting furnace and the mold. When the molten alloy is poured from the smelting furnace into the mold, splashing of the molten alloy often occurs due to the height difference, posing a safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model proposes a zinc alloy ingot casting device to solve the above problems.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model provides a zinc alloy ingot casting device, comprising:

[0007] The frame has rotating frames on both sides, and a smelting furnace is rotatably mounted between the two rotating frames. The rotating shaft of the smelting furnace is located on one side of its top. The top of the smelting furnace has a discharge port, and a guide chute is provided on one side of the discharge port. The far end of the guide chute extends to the rotating shaft of the smelting furnace.

[0008] A drive mechanism for driving the melting furnace to rotate;

[0009] A flow guiding mechanism includes a flow guiding plate with baffles on both sides. One end of the flow guiding plate is located below the far end of the material guide trough, and the other end is provided with a discharge cylinder, the far end of which is bent downward.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes two telescopic cylinders, which are located on both sides of the smelting furnace. The bottom end of the telescopic cylinder is rotatably connected to the frame and the top end is rotatably connected to both sides of the smelting furnace.

[0011] Furthermore, the edges of the discharge port and the guide chute are provided with retaining strips.

[0012] Furthermore, a support column is provided below the end of the flow guide plate near the smelting furnace, and a turntable is axially rotatably mounted on the top of the support column, with the bottom of the flow guide plate rotatably connected to the top of the turntable.

[0013] Furthermore, the width of the diversion plate at the end near the smelting furnace is greater than the width at the end away from the smelting furnace.

[0014] Furthermore, a control ring is provided at the top of the feed cylinder.

[0015] Furthermore, a splash guard is provided around the bottom outer side of the feed cylinder, and the inner side of the splash guard is connected to the outer side of the feed cylinder through multiple connecting rods. The top of the splash guard is inclined towards the feed cylinder and narrows.

[0016] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this utility model provides a zinc alloy ingot casting device:

[0017] Using the guide plate as an intermediate carrier for transferring the molten alloy allows it to be transferred more smoothly from the melting furnace to the mold, effectively reducing the height difference between the melting furnace and the mold and significantly reducing the risk of splashing. At the same time, by using the guide chute to extend the outlet of the molten alloy to the rotating shaft of the melting furnace, it is ensured that the molten alloy is always above the guide plate and maintains a constant height when it is poured out during the rotation and pouring process of the melting furnace. This ensures that the molten alloy is transferred smoothly from the melting furnace to the guide plate and prevents splashing. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a zinc alloy ingot casting device, which includes a frame 1, a drive mechanism and a flow guiding mechanism 3.

[0028] Rotating frames 11 are respectively provided on both sides of the frame 1. A smelting furnace 12 is rotatably installed between the two rotating frames 11. The rotating shaft of the smelting furnace 12 is located on one side of its top. A discharge port 121 is opened on the top of the smelting furnace 12. A guide trough 122 is provided on one side of the discharge port 121. One end of the guide trough 122 is connected to the edge of the discharge port 121. The other end of the guide trough 122 is the far end and extends to the position of the rotating shaft of the smelting furnace 12. It should be noted that the guide trough 122 is located between the discharge port 121 and the rotating shaft of the smelting furnace 12.

[0029] Preferably, the edges of the discharge port 121 and the guide trough 122 are provided with a retaining strip 123, which can prevent the alloy liquid from overflowing from the edges of the discharge port 121 and the guide trough 122.

[0030] The drive mechanism is used to drive the melting furnace 12 to rotate so that the molten alloy inside the melting furnace 12 can flow out from the far end of the feed trough 122.

[0031] Specifically, the drive mechanism includes two telescopic cylinders 2, which are located on both sides of the smelting furnace 12. The bottom end of the telescopic cylinder 2 is rotatably connected to the frame 1 and the top end is rotatably connected to both sides of the smelting furnace 12. The telescopic cylinder 2 can be a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder and is connected to an external pressure drive source.

[0032] The flow guiding mechanism 3 includes a flow guiding plate 31, with baffles 311 on both sides of the flow guiding plate 31. One end of the flow guiding plate 31 is located below the far end of the guide trough 122, and the other end is provided with a discharge cylinder 32. The height of the end of the flow guiding plate 31 closer to the smelting furnace 12 is higher than the height of the other end, and the far end of the discharge cylinder 32 is bent downward.

[0033] Preferably, the width of the end of the flow guide plate 31 near the melting furnace 12 is greater than the width of the end away from the melting furnace 12. This can prevent excessive flow of the alloy liquid when it falls onto the flow guide plate 31, which would cause it to splash out. At the same time, it is beneficial to gather and guide the alloy liquid into the mold.

[0034] After the alloy liquid in the melting furnace 12 is melted, the casting operation is carried out. The feeding cylinder 32 is placed above the mold, and the melting furnace 12 is driven to rotate by the drive mechanism, so that the alloy liquid is poured out from the discharge port 121. The alloy liquid is guided by the guide groove 122 to be transferred to the guide plate 31, and then transferred from the feeding cylinder 32 to the mold along the slope of the guide plate 31, thereby completing the casting operation.

[0035] This invention uses the guide plate 31 as an intermediate carrier for transferring the molten alloy, allowing the molten alloy to be transferred more smoothly from the melting furnace 12 to the mold. This effectively reduces the height difference between the melting furnace 12 and the mold, significantly reducing the risk of molten alloy splashing. At the same time, the guide trough 122 extends the outlet of the molten alloy to the rotating shaft of the melting furnace 12, ensuring that the molten alloy remains above the guide plate 31 and at a constant height during the pouring process. This ensures that the molten alloy is transferred smoothly from the melting furnace 12 to the guide plate 31, preventing splashing.

[0036] Preferably, a support column 33 is provided below the end of the flow guide plate 31 near the melting furnace 12. A turntable 331 is axially rotatably mounted on the top of the support column 33. The bottom of the flow guide plate 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the turntable 331. The end of the flow guide plate 31 away from the turntable 331 can be flipped up and down based on the turntable 331. At the same time, since the turntable 331 can also rotate axially, the end of the flow guide plate 31 away from the turntable 331 can be adjusted in the up, down, left, and right positions. Thus, the mold can be placed on the ground first, and then the flow guide plate 31 can be lifted to place the feed cylinder 32 on the mold. Since the position of the flow guide plate 31 is adjustable, the placement of the mold does not need to be too precise, which is convenient for operation.

[0037] Furthermore, a control ring 321 is provided at the top of the feeding cylinder 32. In actual operation, workers can use a stick-like tool to pass through the control ring 321 and then pull the control ring 321 to control the position of the diversion plate 31. Alternatively, the control ring 321 can be directly connected to the hook of the factory crane to adjust the position of the diversion plate 31 using the crane.

[0038] In one embodiment, a splash guard 34 is provided around the bottom outer side of the feed cylinder 32, and the inner side of the splash guard 34 is connected to the outer side of the feed cylinder 32 by multiple connecting rods 341, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the connecting rod 341 is placed on the top of the mold, so that the splash guard 34 surrounds the top periphery of the mold, which helps to further prevent the alloy liquid from splashing out. At the same time, it allows the feed cylinder 32 to be located above the mold, so that the mold can hold more alloy liquid. Furthermore, the top of the splash guard 34 is inclined and narrowed towards the feed cylinder 32 to further expand the shielding range.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
