Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of polishing technology for casting products, and specifically relates to a surface polishing device for precision sand castings. Background Technology
[0002] Metal castings undergo numerous post-casting processes after casting, including gating and rising gates, surface polishing, surface rust prevention, and flash removal. Among these, grinding and polishing are the most common processing steps for most castings.
[0003] A search revealed a polishing device for the side of a casting with the existing technology announcement number CN222078895U. In this solution, the water pump casting is placed on the surface of a movable plate, and the movable plate is pushed so that the water pump casting comes into contact with the abrasive belt, thereby polishing. This working method has safety hazards. The water pump casting cannot be fixed on the movable plate, and it will roll and move. Secondly, if it cannot be controlled in time during the movement or rolling, it will damage the abrasive belt or even fall off the movable plate and injure the workers.

[0010] The lead screw is equipped with a telescopic sleeve to protect the lead screw and isolate polishing dust; the threaded section of the bidirectional lead screw and the first and second screws are also equipped with telescopic sleeves to isolate dust.
[0011] The horizontal plate is provided with a third through groove and a fourth through groove. The fourth through groove is located at one end of the horizontal plate, and a collection box is provided below the horizontal plate. The collection box is located below the fourth through groove to collect polishing debris.

[0018] The clamping mechanism provides stable clamping for the casting grates of our products, significantly improving worker safety. Secondly, this design allows for adjustment of the spacing between the through shafts by rotating the bidirectional lead screw and the height of the adjusting plate by rotating the first screw, thus adapting to the clamping requirements of grates of different sizes. The second screw controls the pressure plate to press down in conjunction with the plate for clamping and fixing. Quickly pushing the fixing frame allows the grate to approach the grinding mechanism rapidly, while rotating the lead screw allows it to slowly approach the polishing mechanism for polishing. The combined use of these two mechanisms is more convenient and safer. Furthermore, the lead screw also helps to keep the polishing position away from workers, further enhancing work safety.
[0019] The protrusions can push the grate plate surface, ensuring that the support plate does not protrude from the other side of the grate while supporting it, so as not to affect the grinding and polishing of the grate. Attached Figure Description
