Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of metal casting, and more specifically, to a casting apparatus for metal casting with a preheating function. Background Technology
[0002] Recycled aluminum is an aluminum alloy or aluminum metal obtained by remelting and refining scrap aluminum and aluminum alloy materials or aluminum-containing waste. It is an important source of metallic aluminum. Recycled aluminum mainly appears in the form of aluminum alloys. Generally, scrap aluminum can be smelted into malleable aluminum alloys, cast aluminum alloys, and deoxidizers used in steelmaking. In addition, small aluminum particles can be recovered from slag and molten slag using leaching and dry methods (crushing, screening, and magnetic separation).
[0003] Therefore, when casting recycled aluminum, the heating mold needs to be heated to prevent excessive temperature difference. However, traditional equipment cannot automatically press and heat the aluminum ingot mold in the tray, which makes it inconvenient for the next casting step, cannot reduce manpower, increases costs, reduces production capacity, and makes the product difficult to manage. It cannot improve efficiency and cannot effectively improve the pressing effect by using equipment.
[0004] Chinese patent application CN202321860733.3 discloses a novel aluminum ingot casting preheating device for recycled aluminum, which includes a main body, which is a shell. A conveyor is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the main body, and a tray is fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor. An air pump is fixedly connected to the top of the main body. A first pipe is fixedly connected to the input end of the air pump, and a second pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the air pump. With the above structure, the aluminum ingot mold in the tray can be automatically pressed and heated, which facilitates the next step of casting.
[0005] The above solution has the following shortcomings: When in use, the tray needs to be transported into the main body, and then the air pressure generated by the air pump drives the pressing plate to press and heat the aluminum ingot mold. The transport and pressing steps need to be carried out separately, which reduces work efficiency and the practicality of the device. Utility Model Content
[0006] To overcome the above shortcomings, this application provides a casting device for metal casting with a preheating function, which aims to improve the problem that during use, it is necessary to transport the pallet into the main body and then use the air pressure generated by the air pump to drive the pressing plate to press and heat the aluminum ingot mold. The transport and pressing steps need to be carried out separately, which reduces work efficiency and the practicality of the device.
[0007] This application provides a casting device for metal casting with preheating function, including a conveying structure and a pressing structure. The conveying structure includes a chain conveyor and a placement box. A plurality of placement boxes are evenly arranged on one side of the chain conveyor. The pressing structure includes a U-shaped support frame, a pressing component, a rotating shaft, rollers, and connecting plates. The U-shaped support frame is fixedly connected to one side of the chain conveyor. The pressing component is slidably connected to the U-shaped support frame. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the pressing component. The rollers are fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft. The connecting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the placement box, and the rollers are in contact with the connecting plates.
[0008] In one specific implementation, the pressing assembly includes a U-shaped sliding frame, a slide rod, a heat-conducting plate, and a spring. The U-shaped sliding frame is slidably connected to the U-shaped support frame. The slide rod is fixedly connected inside the U-shaped sliding frame and slidably connected to the U-shaped support frame. The heat-conducting plate is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod. Both ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped sliding frame and the U-shaped support frame, respectively. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the U-shaped sliding frame.
[0009] In the above implementation process, the U-shaped sliding frame, slide bar, heat-conducting plate and spring can be set up to facilitate the heat-conducting plate to press the aluminum ingot mold that needs to be preheated, and at the same time facilitate the reset.
[0010] In one specific implementation, a heating block is installed on one side of the heat-conducting plate.
[0011] In the above implementation process, a heating block is installed on one side of the heat-conducting plate, and a resistance wire is installed inside the heating block, which makes it easy to heat the heat-conducting plate.
[0012] In one specific implementation, the placement box is provided with a feeding assembly, which includes a support plate, a placement slot and a U-shaped connecting frame. The support plate is slidably connected to the placement box. The placement slot is provided on one side of the support plate, and two U-shaped connecting frames are arranged opposite each other on one side of the support plate. The U-shaped connecting frames are connected to the placement box.
[0013] In the above implementation process, the support plate, placement slot and U-shaped connecting frame can be set up to facilitate quick disassembly and replacement of the support plate, and at the same time facilitate quick loading and unloading of materials.
[0014] In one specific implementation, an insulation board is provided inside the placement slot.
[0015] In the above process, by setting a heat insulation plate in the placement groove, the heat loss of the aluminum ingot mold after heating can be easily reduced.
[0016] In one specific implementation, a limiting rod is provided inside the placement box, and the support plate is attached to one side of the limiting rod.
[0017] In the above implementation process, the support plate can be easily supported by fitting the support plate against one side of the limiting rod.
[0018] In one specific implementation, the connecting plate is configured as a trapezoid.
[0019] In the above implementation process, by setting the connecting plate to a trapezoidal shape, it is possible to facilitate the contact between the roller and the connecting plate, and to facilitate the downward movement of the pressing component to press the aluminum ingot mold.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows: by setting up the U-shaped support frame, rotating shaft, roller and connecting plate, the chain plate conveyor can automatically drive the pressing component to press down the aluminum ingot mold during the process of conveying the aluminum ingot mold through the placement box, which improves the work efficiency and the practicality of the device. By setting up the feeding component, the support plate can be quickly disassembled and replaced, and the loading and unloading of materials can be facilitated. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a casting apparatus for metal casting with a preheating function, including a conveying structure 10 and a pressing structure 20.
[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The conveying structure 10 includes a chain conveyor 110 and a placement box 120, with a plurality of placement boxes 120 evenly arranged on one side of the chain conveyor 110.
[0030] In a specific configuration, a material feeding assembly 130 is provided inside the placement box 120. The material feeding assembly 130 includes a support plate 131, a placement groove 132, and a U-shaped connecting frame 133. The support plate 131 is slidably connected to the placement box 120. A placement groove 132 is provided on one side of the support plate 131. Two U-shaped connecting frames 133 are arranged opposite each other on one side of the support plate 131. The U-shaped connecting frames 133 are connected to the placement box 120. The support plate 131, placement groove 132, and U-shaped connecting frames 133 facilitate quick disassembly and replacement of the support plate 131, as well as quick loading and unloading of materials. A handle is provided on one side of the U-shaped connecting frame 133.
[0031] In a specific configuration, a heat insulation plate 140 is installed inside the placement groove 132. By installing the heat insulation plate 140 inside the placement groove 132, the heat loss of the aluminum ingot mold after heating can be easily reduced.
[0032] In the specific setup, a limiting rod 150 is provided inside the placement box 120, and the support plate 131 is attached to one side of the limiting rod 150. The attachment of the support plate 131 to one side of the limiting rod 150 facilitates the support plate 131.
[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The pressing structure 20 includes a U-shaped support frame 210, a pressing component 220, a rotating shaft 230, a roller 240, and a connecting plate 250. The U-shaped support frame 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the chain conveyor 110. The pressing component 220 is slidably connected to the U-shaped support frame 210. The rotating shaft 230 is rotatably connected to the pressing component 220. The roller 240 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 230. The placing box 120 is fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting plate 250. The roller 240 is in contact with the connecting plate 250.
[0034] In a specific configuration, the pressing component 220 includes a U-shaped sliding frame 221, a sliding rod 222, a heat-conducting plate 223, and a spring 224. The U-shaped sliding frame 221 is slidably connected to the U-shaped support frame 210. The sliding rod 222 is fixedly connected inside the U-shaped sliding frame 221 and slidably connected to the U-shaped support frame 210. The heat-conducting plate 223 is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding rod 222. The two ends of the spring 224 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped sliding frame 221 and the U-shaped support frame 210, respectively. The rotating shaft 230 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped sliding frame 221. The configuration of the U-shaped sliding frame 221, the sliding rod 222, the heat-conducting plate 223, and the spring 224 facilitates the heat-conducting plate 223 to press the aluminum ingot mold that needs to be preheated, and also facilitates reset.
[0035] In a specific configuration, a heating block 260 is installed on one side of the heat-conducting plate 223. The heating block 260 contains a resistance wire, which facilitates heating of the heat-conducting plate 223.
[0036] In a specific configuration, the connecting plate 250 is set in a trapezoidal shape. By setting the connecting plate 250 in a trapezoidal shape, it is possible to facilitate the contact between the roller 240 and the connecting plate 250, and to facilitate the downward movement of the pressing component 220 to press the aluminum ingot mold.
[0037] The working principle of this preheating metal casting casting device is as follows: When using the preheating metal casting casting device, the aluminum ingot mold to be preheated is placed in the placement groove 132 of the support plate 131. The support plate 131 containing the aluminum ingot mold is pushed into the placement box 120, ensuring that the support plate 131 is in contact with one side of the limiting rod 150 to stably support the support plate 131. The support plate 131 is slidably connected to the placement box 120 through the U-shaped connecting frame 133, which facilitates quick disassembly and replacement of the support plate 131 and quick loading and unloading. The placement box 120 is conveyed by the chain conveyor 110. During the conveying process, the trapezoidal connecting plates 2 on both sides of the placement box 120... 50 contacts the roller 240. As the placement box 120 continues to move, the roller 240 rolls on the connecting plate 250 and pushes the heat-conducting plate 223 to contact the aluminum ingot mold through the slide bar 222. The heat-conducting plate 223 is heated by the heating block 260, and the heat is transferred to the aluminum ingot mold to achieve the preheating function. The setting of the spring 224 ensures that the heat-conducting plate 223 can be smoothly reset after being pressed. The chain conveyor 110 continues to drive the placement box 120 and the preheated aluminum ingot mold inside to the unloading position. By pulling the handle, the support plate 131 inside the placement box 120 is taken out from the placement box 120, thereby taking out the preheated aluminum ingot mold for subsequent casting.
[0038] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the chain conveyor 110, insulation plate 140, heat conduction plate 223 and heating block 260 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.
[0039] The power supply and operating principle of the chain conveyor 110 and the heating block 260 are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
[0040] The above are merely specific embodiments of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
