Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum alloy casting processing technology, and in particular to a vibrating core sand dropping unit. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum alloy subframes are generally produced using a low-pressure casting process with a sand core. After the aluminum alloy casting is formed, the sand mold inside the casting needs to be removed. Currently, there are two methods for removing sand from aluminum alloy castings: one is manual sand removal, which is done manually on-site in a typical foundry. This is mainly used for single-piece or small-batch production, but it has the disadvantages of high labor intensity and low production efficiency. The other is mechanical sand removal, which usually uses mechanical equipment. It involves placing the cast aluminum alloy part on a vibrating sand removal machine, where vibration causes the sand to fall.

[0003] Existing hammer core machines and vibratory core machines generate a lot of noise due to their mechanical processing methods. Material transfer between the two machines relies on traditional manual handling, and scattered sand cores require additional manpower for regular cleaning, which affects production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on the aforementioned technical issues that need to be addressed, a core sand removal unit is provided.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a core-shaping unit, including a closed core-shaping chamber with sound insulation. The core-shaping chamber contains a first waste sand collection belt conveyor and a second waste sand collection belt conveyor, connected end-to-end and arranged vertically. A loading slide and a discharging slide are arranged side-by-side in front of the core-shaping chamber. A core-shaping robot is installed between the loading slide and the first waste sand collection belt conveyor. A first core-shaping machine and a hammer are located on the side of the second waste sand collection belt conveyor furthest from the core-shaping robot, and a second core-shaping machine is located on the side of the first waste sand collection belt conveyor furthest from the core-shaping robot. The hammer, the first core-shaping machine, the second core-shaping machine, the loading slide, and the discharging slide are all located within the maximum turning radius of the core-shaping robot.

[0006] Furthermore, at least half of the structure of the upper slide and the lower slide extends into the interior of the core sand removal chamber, while the other half is located outside the core sand removal chamber.

[0008] Furthermore, the first vibrating core sand removal machine is installed at the edge of the second waste sand collection belt conveyor, and the second vibrating core sand removal machine is installed at the edge of the first waste sand collection belt conveyor.

[0009] Furthermore, the hammer is installed directly above the second waste sand collection conveyor belt.

[0010] Furthermore, the end of the second waste sand collection belt conveyor on the side away from the first waste sand collection belt conveyor passes through the vibrating core sand removal chamber and is located outside the vibrating core sand removal chamber.

[0011] Furthermore, the side of the core sand removal room is equipped with an isolation door coaxial with the first waste sand collection belt conveyor. A robot control cabinet is installed on the side of the isolation door to control the core robot independently. An electrical control cabinet is installed on the side of the robot control cabinet to control the automatic operation of the entire core sand removal unit.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] One embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1As shown, the soundproof, enclosed vibrating core sand removal chamber places the entire system within a closed space. Noise is reduced by sound-absorbing materials such as sound-absorbing cotton on the walls, improving the working environment. The vibrating core sand removal chamber 1 contains a first waste sand collection belt conveyor 2 and a second waste sand collection belt conveyor 3, arranged vertically and connected end-to-end. A loading slide 5 and a discharging slide 6 are arranged side-by-side in front of the chamber 1. A vibrating core robot 4 is installed between the loading slide 5 and the first waste sand collection belt conveyor 2. A first vibrating core sand removal machine 7 and a hammer are located on the side of the second waste sand collection belt conveyor 3 furthest from the vibrating core robot 4, near the loading slide 5. Machine 9, the first waste sand collection belt conveyor 2 is located on the side away from the vibrating core robot 4, and the second vibrating core sand removal machine 8 is set up. The hammering machine 9, the first vibrating core sand removal machine 7, the second vibrating core sand removal machine 8, the upper slide table 5 and the lower slide table 6 are all located within the maximum turning radius of the vibrating core robot 4. An island-shaped production line structure is set up in the closed vibrating core sand removal room. The robot transfers the sub-carriage, and the hammering machine and the two sets of vibrating core sand removal machines remove the sand core inside the sub-carriage cavity. The waste sand collection belt conveyor transfers the scattered sand core, realizing the production closed loop of vibrating core sand removal, improving the working environment, and preparing for the subsequent cutting unit.

[0018] At least half of the structure of the loading slide 5 and the unloading slide 6 extends into the interior of the core sanding chamber 1, while the other half is located outside the core sanding chamber 1, which facilitates loading and unloading. The loading slide automatically transfers the workpiece to the core sanding chamber, and the unloading slide automatically transfers the subframe that has completed the core sanding to the outside of the core sanding chamber.

[0019] The vibrating core robot 4 is equipped with a gripper structure corresponding to the sub-frame model. The gripper picks up the sub-frame to be processed on the upper slide and places it on the positioning fixture of the hammering machine. After the hammering machine finishes its work, the gripper picks up the workpiece from the hammering machine and places it on the fixture of the idle vibrating core sanding machine. After the vibrating core sanding machine finishes its work, the gripper picks up the sub-frame from the corresponding vibrating core sanding machine and places it on the output slide, thus completing the vibrating core sanding operation of a single sub-frame.

[0020] The first vibrating core sand removal machine 7 is installed at the edge of the second waste sand collection belt conveyor 3, the second vibrating core sand removal machine 8 is installed at the edge of the first waste sand collection belt conveyor 2, and the hammering machine 9 is installed directly above the second waste sand collection belt conveyor 3. The hammering machine uses a pneumatic hammer to strike the subframe with high-frequency vibration, causing cracks in the sand core blocks inside the workpiece cavity. The vibrating core sand removal machine uses a vibrating motor and a vibrating machine body to make the sand core blocks inside the subframe rub against each other, reducing the size of the sand core blocks and enabling them to detach from the workpiece through the sand removal hole, thereby achieving the function of removing the sand core. For specific structure, refer to the subframe hammering device disclosed in CN220970732U and the subframe vibrating core device disclosed in CN221336571U previously applied for by our company.

[0021] The end of the second waste sand collection belt conveyor 3, which is away from the first waste sand collection belt conveyor 2, passes through the vibrating core sand removal chamber 1 and is located outside the vibrating core sand removal chamber 1. The first waste sand collection belt conveyor collects the sand cores dropped by the second vibrating core sand removal machine and transfers them to the second waste sand collection belt conveyor. The second waste sand collection belt conveyor collects and transfers the sand cores dropped by the hammer, the first vibrating core sand removal machine and the second vibrating core sand removal machine to the outside of the vibrating core sand removal chamber. The sand cores are periodically processed through an external transfer box to reduce labor costs.

[0022] The side of the core sand removal room 1 is equipped with an isolation door coaxial with the first waste sand collection belt conveyor 2. The side of the isolation door is equipped with a robot control cabinet 11 to control the core robot 4. The side of the robot control cabinet 11 is equipped with a control cabinet 12 to control the automatic operation of the entire core sand removal unit.
