Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tooling and mold technology, and in particular relates to a tooling and mold for large-size forgings. Background Technology

[0002] For forging large-sized forgings, the corresponding molds are large in size and difficult to move and position. When processing forgings of different sizes or types, molds need to be changed. However, the molds are too heavy and large, which is not conducive to operation, affects the mold change time and thus affects the processing efficiency, and increases the mold inventory cost. At the same time, when the whole mold is partially worn, it will force the entire mold to be scrapped, resulting in excessive maintenance costs.

[0003] If a modular mold design can solve the above problems, the difficulty lies in how to secure the modular mold and ensure strong fastening and fit between the modular components to avoid gaps or loosening. Similarly, it is necessary to ensure that there will be no excessive gaps under high-intensity vibration environments. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a tooling mold for large-size forgings. By dividing the inner mold mechanism into multiple split molds, and through the design of a liftable and tensionable mold base mechanism, it can be used for the assembly and tightening of the inner mold, which is conducive to mold changing, reduces mold changing procedures and time, and improves work efficiency. It can quickly replace the matching inner mold for forgings of different specifications or shapes, thus increasing the applicability. At the same time, compared with the whole mold structure, the split mold has the characteristic of weight reduction, which facilitates the hoisting and assembly of the split mold.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a tooling mold for large-size forgings, including an inner mold mechanism and a mold base mechanism;

[0007] The mold base mechanism includes a lower mold base, an upper mold base, several tension rods, and several bolts;

[0008] The lower mold base has a lower mold cavity at its axis, and a lower conical slope at the top of the lower mold cavity. The lower mold base has several oil cavities arranged in a ring shape. The top surface of each oil cavity has a through-hole extending to the top surface of the lower mold base. The oil cavity has an oil inlet and an oil outlet that penetrate the lower mold base. A pressure sensor is installed inside the oil cavity.

[0009] The upper mold base is concentrically arranged directly above the lower mold base. The upper mold base has an upper mold cavity at its axial center and an upper conical slope at the bottom end. The upper mold base has several through holes arranged in a ring shape.

[0010] The top ends of several tension rods are fixed in a ring shape on the bottom surface of the lower mold base and are offset from several through holes. The bottom end of the tension rod passes through the rod opening and is fixed with a piston. The piston is slidably disposed in the oil cavity. A sliding seal is provided in the rod opening.

[0011] Several of the bolts are fixed to the top surface of the lower mold base, and the bolts pass through the through-hole and are threaded with nuts;

[0012] The inner mold mechanism includes several arc-shaped split molds, which are disposed through the lower mold cavity and the upper mold cavity and are attached to each other. The outer side of each split mold is provided with a V-shaped slope that fits into the lower and upper conical slopes.

[0013] Furthermore, one of the split molds has parallel flat cut surfaces on both sides, and the two split molds have side planes that fit with the flat cut surfaces.

[0014] Furthermore, the diameter of the lower cone slope decreases from top to bottom, while the diameter of the upper cone slope increases from bottom to top.

[0015] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the lower mold base is a plane, and the bottom surface of the lower mold base is lower than the bottom surface of the split mold.

[0016] Furthermore, the top and bottom of the oil cavity are provided with constricted sections, and the oil inlet and outlet are respectively connected to the constricted sections at the top and bottom of the oil cavity.

[0017] Furthermore, the top of the split mold is provided with a widening platform, and the widening platform is provided with a lifting port.

[0018] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This utility model divides the inner mold mechanism into multiple split molds. At the same time, the design of the mold base mechanism that can be lifted and tightened can be used for the assembly and tightening of the inner mold, which is conducive to mold changing, reduces mold changing procedures and time, improves work efficiency, and allows for quick replacement of matching inner molds for forgings of different specifications or shapes, thus increasing the applicability. In addition, compared with the whole mold structure, the split mold has the characteristic of weight reduction, which facilitates the hoisting and assembly of the split mold.

[0020] 2. This utility model, through the design of the oil cavity and tension rod, functions as a hydraulic cylinder, using hydraulic pressure for locking, which greatly improves the tightness between the upper and lower mold bases, enhances the stability of the inner mold, and provides a certain pre-tightening force. It also serves as a pre-fixing mechanism before bolt installation, facilitating operator operation. The arrangement of the bolts ensures a stable connection between the two, and if the bolts loosen due to forging vibration, pressure changes will occur in the oil cavity, allowing for immediate detection and preventing instability issues, thus ensuring the mold's performance.

[0021] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
