Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of molding sand feeding technology, specifically to a molding sand quantitative feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Molding sand is mainly composed of raw casting sand (such as quartz sand), binders (such as clay and resin), and additives (such as coal powder and water glass) mixed in proportion. It is a common material used for casting molds.

[0003] Currently, the quantitative feeding of molding sand is often achieved through a weighing metering pan. Specifically, molding sand is transported by equipment such as an auger and falls onto the weighing pan by gravity. When the weight on the weighing pan reaches a specified value, the feeding of molding sand is stopped.

[0004] However, this method can lead to excessive molding sand. After the specified weight of molding sand is obtained from the weighing pan, the auger stops conveying the molding sand, but there is still molding sand in the air. When this part of the molding sand falls onto the weighing pan, the actual weight of the molding sand has exceeded the predetermined value, resulting in poor accuracy of quantitative feeding. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a quantitative feeding device for molding sand to address the aforementioned shortcomings in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A molding sand metering device includes a feeding pipe, a housing fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the feeding pipe, an inlet and an outlet respectively opened at the top and bottom of the housing; the inlet is connected to the feeding pipe; a material tray is rotatably connected inside the housing, the material tray has multiple material grooves opened on the material tray, the multiple material grooves are arranged circumferentially at equal intervals, the top and bottom of the material tray abut against the inner wall of the housing, and the material grooves are respectively adapted to the inlet and outlet; a drive source for driving the material tray to rotate is fixedly mounted on the housing.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes an adjustment component for adjusting the capacity of the feed trough.

[0009] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes adjustment blocks that are slidably connected to each material trough, a rotating shaft is rotatably provided in the middle of the material tube, the rotating shaft drives each adjustment block to move through a transmission component, and a limiter for fixing the rotating shaft is also provided at the top of the material tray.

[0010] Furthermore, the transmission component includes a transmission disc fixedly mounted on a rotating shaft, a first connecting rod fixedly mounted on the side of the adjusting block facing the transmission disc, a second connecting rod fixedly mounted at the end of the first connecting rod, and the second connecting rod extending into and slidably connected to a transmission groove on the transmission disc.

[0011] Furthermore, the direction in which the transmission groove is positioned is inclined to the radial direction of the transmission disc.

[0012] Furthermore, the limiter includes a limit rod threaded to the top of the tray. One end of the limit rod passes through an opening on the housing and is fixedly connected to a cap. The other end is inserted into a rotating shaft. A protrusion is fixedly provided in the axial direction of the rotating shaft. A slot is provided on the limit rod to match the protrusion. The protrusion is slidably connected in the slot.

[0013] Furthermore, an indicator is fixedly provided on the twist cap, and an indicator line is provided in the circumferential direction of the opening.

[0014] Furthermore, a baffle is fixedly provided on the top of the adjusting block, and the baffle is slidably connected to the groove on the top of the material tray.

[0015] Furthermore, the driving source is a motor, and the output end of the motor passes through the housing and is fixedly connected to the material tray.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the molding sand quantitative feeding device provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:

[0017] Through the set material tray, the molding sand in the feeding pipe enters the material tray loading trough through the feeding port of the shell. When the trough is full, the quantitative filling of molding sand is completed. The drive source drives the material tray to rotate.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 A molding sand quantitative feeding device includes a feeding pipe, a housing 1 fixedly installed at the bottom end of the feeding pipe, and a feeding port 11 and a discharging port 12 respectively opened at the top and bottom of the housing 1; the feeding port 11 is connected to the feeding pipe; a material tray 2 is rotatably connected inside the housing 1, and a plurality of material grooves 21 are opened on the material tray 2. The plurality of material grooves 21 are arranged circumferentially at equal intervals. The top and bottom of the material tray 2 abut against the inner wall of the housing 1, and the material grooves 21 are respectively adapted to the feeding port 11 and the discharging port 12; a drive source 3 for driving the material tray 2 to rotate is fixedly installed on the housing 1.

[0030] The top and bottom of the material tray 2 are both in contact with the inner wall of the housing 1, which can prevent the molding sand in the material trough 21 from being overfilled and the material from leaking during rotation.

[0031] Furthermore, it also includes an adjustment component 4, which is used to adjust the capacity of the material trough 21. During the production process, different molds require different amounts of molding sand, and the adjustment component 4 adjusts the amount of molding sand by adjusting the capacity of the material trough 21.

[0032] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly 4 includes adjustment blocks 41 that are slidably connected to each material trough 21, a rotating shaft 42 is rotatably provided in the middle of the material tube, and the rotating shaft drives each adjustment block 41 to move through the transmission component 43. A limiter 44 for fixing is also provided at the top of the material tray 2.

[0033] Furthermore, the transmission component 43 includes a transmission disk 431 fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 42, a first connecting rod 433 fixedly mounted on the side of the adjusting block 41 facing the transmission disk 431, a second connecting rod 434 fixedly mounted at the end of the first connecting rod 433, and the second connecting rod 434 extending into and slidably connected to the transmission groove 432 on the transmission disk 431.

[0034] The rotating shaft 42 drives the transmission disc 431 to rotate together. The transmission disc 431 drives the transmission groove 432 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission groove 432 drives the second connecting rod 434 to slide within the transmission groove 432. Since the adjusting block 41 is slidably limited by the material groove 21, the second connecting rod 434 drives the adjusting block 41 to slide within the material groove 21 through the first connecting rod 433, thereby changing the size of the material groove 21.

[0035] Furthermore, the transmission groove 432 is inclined to the radial direction of the transmission disk 431. This arrangement causes the second slide bar to move toward or away from the rotating shaft 42 when the transmission groove 432 rotates (the adjusting block 41 is slidably limited).

[0036] Furthermore, the limiter 44 includes a limit rod 441 threadedly connected to the top of the tray 2. One end of the limit rod 441 passes through an opening on the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to a twist cap 442. The other end is inserted into a rotating shaft 42. A protrusion 443 is fixedly provided in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 42. A slot 444 adapted to the protrusion 443 is provided on the limit rod 441. The protrusion 443 is slidably connected in the slot 444.

[0037] Rotating the cap 442 causes the limiting rod 441 to rotate. The rotation of the limiting rod 441 moves it closer to or further away from the rotating shaft 42, and at the same time causes the slot 444 to rotate. The rotation of the slot 444 drives the rotating shaft 42 to rotate through the protrusion 443, thereby realizing the rotation and fixation of the rotating shaft 42.

[0038] Furthermore, an indicator 51 is fixedly provided on the twist cap 442, and an indicator line is provided in the circumferential direction of the opening. The indicator line is used to indicate the capacity of the corresponding material trough 21. Through the cooperation of the indicator 51 and the indicator line, it is convenient for the staff to adjust the capacity of the material trough 21 in a precise manner.

[0039] Furthermore, a baffle 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the adjusting block, and the baffle 6 is slidably connected to the groove on the top of the material tray 2. During the movement of the adjusting block 41, there may be a situation where the material trough 21 is divided into two troughs (the adjusting block 41 is located in the middle of the material trough 21), which may cause molding sand to enter both troughs at the same time, resulting in an excessive amount of molding sand. By setting the baffle 6, the molding sand can only enter one material trough 21 at a time when the adjusting block 41 is moving, thus ensuring the accuracy of molding sand feeding.

[0040] Furthermore, the driving source 3 is a motor, and the output end of the motor passes through the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the material tray 2.

[0041] Working principle: The molding sand in the feeding pipe enters the feeding trough 21 of the material tray 2 through the feeding port 11 of the shell 1. The driving source 3 drives the material tray 2 to rotate. When the material tray 21 rotates to the discharge port 12, the molding sand in the material tray 21 falls down under the action of gravity, thus completing the quantitative feeding of molding sand.

[0042] When it is necessary to adjust the amount of molding sand fed, rotating the twist cover 442 drives the limit rod 441 to rotate. The rotation of the limit rod 441 drives the slot 444 to rotate as well. The rotation of the slot 444 drives the rotating shaft 42 to rotate through the protrusion 443. The rotating shaft 42 drives the transmission disc 431 to rotate together. The transmission disc 431 drives the transmission groove 432 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission groove 432 drives the second connecting rod 434 to slide within the transmission groove 432. Since the adjusting block 41 is slidably limited by the material trough 21, the second connecting rod 434 drives the adjusting block 41 to slide within the material trough 21 through the first connecting rod 433, thereby changing the size of the material trough 21.

[0043] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
