Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of aluminum ingot processing equipment, and in particular relates to an aluminum ingot forming and cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] Existing Chinese patent databases disclose a cooling device for aluminum ingot conveying and forming, application number CN202421172374.7, application date 2024-05-27. This device, relating to the field of aluminum ingot processing technology, includes a water tank with a frame fixedly mounted on its upper end. A conveyor belt is located on the inner side of the frame, and a forming mold is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the conveyor belt. A cooling mechanism is located at the upper end of the frame. This invention employs the above structure. By pre-adding cooling water to a cooling water tank, a control module further cools the cooling water using a refrigeration device. When the temperature reaches a specified level, the first water pump in one of the cooling water tanks on the frame starts, conveying water through a water pipe to a three-way pipe. At this time, the solenoid valve at the conveying part of the three-way pipe opens while the solenoid valve at the other conveying part closes. The three-way pipe then conveys water to a distribution pipe through a connecting pipe at its lower end. The distribution pipe, connected to a spray pipe, can efficiently cool and demold the aluminum ingot in the forming mold on the conveyor belt.

[0003] Aluminum ingot casting typically employs direct water cooling (such as spraying or immersion), utilizing the high thermal conductivity of water to achieve rapid cooling and prevent coarse grains or compositional segregation. During the water cooling process, water droplets adhere to the surface of the aluminum ingot. If not handled properly, this can lead to surface corrosion, affecting its service life and performance. Therefore, this paper aims to propose an aluminum ingot forming cooling device that, after immersion in water cooling, dries any water droplets that may remain on the surface of the aluminum ingot by blowing air to prevent prolonged water droplet adhesion and subsequent corrosion. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is how to cool aluminum ingots and remove water droplets from their surface. In order to improve its shortcomings, this utility model provides an aluminum ingot forming cooling device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0016] As a preferred embodiment, the upper and lower parts of the box are integrally welded with connecting flanges, which are then fixed to the ear plate section of the gantry frame by bolts, thereby fixing the box onto the gantry frame.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment, a water circulation assembly is installed outside the cooling water tank. This assembly includes a water storage tank connected to the water inlet via a first pump body, and a water filter.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1-3 The image shows a cooling device for aluminum ingot forming, comprising:

[0025] Cooling water tank 1: placed vertically on the ground for immersion cooling of aluminum ingots;

[0026] Gantry frame 2: It is integrally set on the upper surface of the cooling water tank 1, and the free ends of the two ear plate sections of the gantry frame 2 are welded and fixed to the cooling water tank 1;

[0028] Mesh frame 4: used to place aluminum ingots to be cooled, and connected to the free end of the piston rod of drive cylinder 3;

[0029] Air drying component assembly 5: includes a housing 501 fixedly connected to the side of the ear plate section of the gantry frame 2, a blower 502 fixedly installed inside the housing 501, and an air outlet duct 503 connected to the air outlet of the blower 502.

[0030] Water inlet 6: Located on the upper side of cooling water tank 1;

[0031] Drain outlet 7: Located on the lower side of cooling water tank 1.

[0032] A heater 504 is fixedly installed inside the housing 501. The air outlet of the blower 502 is connected to the air inlet of the heater 504 via the air outlet pipe 503. The air outlet of the heater 504 passes through the housing 501 and is positioned directly opposite the raised mesh frame 4. The heater 504 increases the temperature of the blower, reduces the drying time, and improves the cooling efficiency of the aluminum ingot. Connecting flanges 505 are integrally welded to both the upper and lower parts of the housing 501. The connecting flanges 505 are bolted to the ear plate section of the gantry frame 2, fixing the housing 501 to the gantry frame 2. A water circulation assembly is installed outside the cooling water tank 1. The water circulation assembly includes a water storage tank 8, which is connected to the water inlet 6 via the first pump body 9. It also includes a water filter 10, whose inlet is connected to the outlet 7, and whose outlet is connected to the return water inlet of the water storage tank 8 via the second pump body 11. The water circulation component assembly enables the recycling of cooling water resources, reducing costs. A first connecting ring 12 is integrally welded to the upper ends of each of the four corners of the mesh frame 4. A block 13 is connected to the free end of the piston rod of the drive cylinder 3.

After placement, the operator controls the drive cylinder 3 to work, driving the mesh frame 4 to descend below the liquid surface of the cooling water tank 1 for immersion cooling. After cooling, the operator uses the drive cylinder 3 to lift the mesh frame 4 to the air outlet position of the air drying assembly 5. The blower 502 and heater 504 work together to blow and dry the cooled aluminum ingot in the mesh frame 4, drying any water droplets that may remain on the surface of the aluminum ingot and preventing water droplets from adhering for a long time and causing corrosion.

[0034] During the operation of the water circulation component assembly: the water in the storage tank 8 is introduced into the cold zone water tank through the first pump body 9 and the inlet 6. When the water in the cooling water tank 1 produces impurities after long-term use, it is discharged into the water filter 10 through the drain 7. The water filter 10 filters the water containing impurities and then introduces it into the storage tank 8 through the second pump body 11, thereby realizing the recycling of water resources.
