Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of casting technology, and in particular to a casting sand feeding and conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] During the casting process, molds are used to shape the casting while casting sand, specifically electrofused ceramsite sand, also known as granulated abrasive sand, foundry sand, or bauxite ceramsite sand, is poured into the mold. Electrofused ceramsite sand is made from high-quality bauxite through processes such as calcination, electrofusion, granulation, and sieving. It is a substitute for quartz sand, overcoming the disadvantages of quartz sand such as a high expansion coefficient, low casting precision, and severe sand adhesion, thus improving the quality of castings. For ease of casting, a feeding and conveying device is used to transport the casting sand.

[0003] Existing casting sand feeding and conveying devices lack the function of screening the casting sand entering the conveyor during actual use. This results in casting sand of varying sizes entering the conveyor, and the accumulation of casting sand of different sizes can easily lead to gaps, thus affecting the casting quality of the castings. Therefore, we propose a casting sand feeding and conveying device to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

One side of the connecting plate 12 is rotatably connected to the side of the corresponding pull rod 11. When the unlocking plate 5 moves, it compresses the unlocking spring 6 and drives the two sliding rods 7 to move backward. At this time, the movement of the sliding rods 7 will drive the two sliding plates 8 to move backward. The movement of the sliding plates 8 will push the two transmission rods 9 to move backward. The movement of the transmission rods 9 will pull the two pull rods 11, thereby driving the two connecting plates 12 to move to opposite sides, thereby driving the insert plates 14 to move. The movement of the insert plates 14 facilitates the fixing or unlocking of the screening frame 4.

At this time, the ruler can be... Place the appropriately sized screening frame 4 into the feed hopper 3 and align the slot with the insert plate 14. At this point, release the unlocking plate 5. The unlocking spring 6 pushes the unlocking plate 5 forward to reset. The reset of the unlocking plate 5 will drive the slide rod 7 to reset and drive the slide plate 8 to move forward to reset. The reset of the slide plate 8 will drive the transmission rod 9 to move forward. At this time, the movement of the transmission rod 9 will pull the pull rod 11. At the same time, the reset spring 13 loses its restraint and pushes the two connecting plates 12 to move away from each other. The movement of the connecting plates 12 will drive the insert plate 14 to reset and engage with the slot to fix the screening frame 4. At this time, the casting sand can be poured into the screening frame 4 and screened through the screening frame 4.
