Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of investment casting technology, specifically to an investment casting shell cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Investment casting, also known as lost-wax casting, includes processes such as wax pressing, wax trimming, tree assembly, slurry application, wax melting, pouring molten metal, and post-processing. Lost-wax casting involves creating a wax model of the part to be cast, then coating the wax model with clay slurry to form a clay model. After the clay model dries, it is placed in hot water to melt the inner wax model. The melted clay model is then removed and fired to form a ceramic mold. A pouring gate is typically left during the clay model making process, through which molten metal is poured. After cooling, the desired part is formed.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent (CN221808931U) disclosing a shell-cleaning device for investment casting. Its key technical features include: a bottom support, a fixed frame, a shell-cleaning assembly for the investment casting mold, a transfer assembly for the investment casting mold, and a shell-cleaning and dust-removing assembly. The shell-cleaning assembly includes a lifting hydraulic rod, a connecting plate, a top support frame, a support shaft, a rotary motor, a transmission belt, and a rotating eccentric wheel. The transfer assembly includes a transmission threaded rod, a drive motor, a limiting support rod, a support seat groove, a support seat slider, a movable support seat, and a fixed plate for the investment casting mold. The dust-removing assembly includes a support ring plate, a motor fixing rod, a blower motor, a blower transmission shaft, and rotating blower blades. The fixed frame facilitates automated hammering and crushing of the shell during the investment casting shell-cleaning process. The shell-cleaning assembly facilitates automated transfer of the investment casting mold. The transfer assembly facilitates the blowing off of debris and powder after shell cleaning.

[0004] However, the existing technology lacks an adjustable clamping mechanism, making it inconvenient to fix modules of different sizes. During transportation and shell cleaning, the modules may fall off, causing damage and affecting work efficiency. In order to solve the deficiency of the lack of a clamping mechanism in the existing technology, this application clamps both ends of the module by driving the support frame and clamping block to move through the first driving component, thereby achieving the effect of fixing modules of different sizes. Therefore, a new solution is needed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, a first support plate is provided below the transmission rod, and a first motor is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the first support plate. A fourth gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor.

[0008] Furthermore, a support box is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate, and two sliding grooves are formed on the outer surface of the support box.

[0009] Furthermore, a second support plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate, a support rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the second support plate, and a pneumatic vibration shell device is fixedly installed at the top end of the support rod.

[0012] Furthermore, a second motor is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate, and a second drive rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. Two second drive components are threadedly connected to the outer surface of the second drive rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model, by setting up a support frame and a first driving component, and through the cooperation between the support frame and the first driving component, enables the first driving component to drive the clamping block to move through the support frame, thereby clamping the two ends of the module.
