Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of molds, specifically to a mold foot structure for quick mold installation. Background Technology

[0002] As the demand for diversified automobiles increases, personalized car designs are becoming more and more popular, and a single casting may have two or three different designs. This affects our casting process, as the variety of sand cores required for different casting designs is also increasing. For a company, core shooting machines represent a capital investment, and the site itself is a significant capital investment. How to produce sand cores that meet production plans under the current circumstances is a challenge for frontline managers.

[0003] The main body of a core shooting machine mold typically includes the mold body and mold feet. The mold feet are responsible for fixing the two sides of the mold body to the core shooting machine.

[0004] The traditional structure for mounting the mold body onto the core shooting machine mounting plate using mold feet involves multiple bolt holes between the mold feet and the mounting plate. The mold feet are then fixed to the core shooting machine mounting plate using bolts, requiring at least 12 bolts to secure a single mold.

[0005] The previous installation structure between the mold base and the core shooting machine mounting plate required a large number of bolts to be removed and installed when assembling a mold, which seriously affected the installation efficiency of the mold. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a mold foot structure for quick mold installation, thereby solving the technical problem of low efficiency in disassembling and assembling molds between the mounting plates of the core shooting machine.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: a mold foot structure for quick mold installation is provided, including four clamping mechanisms, which are respectively set on two mounting plates of the core shooter. Each mounting plate has one clamping mechanism installed on its upper and lower sides. The clamping mechanism includes a pair of clamping blocks that can move synchronously; four mold feet are distributed on both sides of the mold body, with two mold feet on each side. The inner side of the mold foot is detachably connected to the mold body, and the other side of the mold foot is connected to the clamping mechanism. During installation, the two clamping blocks of each clamping mechanism clamp the two sides of the mold foot synchronously.

[0008] Furthermore, the mold foot includes a mold foot body, and multiple bolt holes are opened on the inner side of the mold foot body and on the mold body. Multiple connecting bolts pass through the bolt holes on the mold foot body and the mold body, thereby fixing the mold body and the mold foot body together. Clamping slots are opened at both ends of the mold foot body, and the two clamping blocks of the clamping mechanism cooperate with the clamping slots of the mold foot body to clamp the mold foot body.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes a pair of connecting blocks, which are fixed to the front and rear sides of the mounting plate respectively; a pair of clamping blocks, the middle of which is hinged to the connecting blocks, and the inner end of which has an L-shaped structure to form a bayonet with the mounting plate; and a synchronizing screw, which is located on the outside of the mounting plate. The synchronizing screw has a rod body in the middle, and threaded sections at both ends of the rod body. The helical directions of the two threaded sections are set in opposite directions, and the two threaded sections are threadedly connected to the two clamping blocks respectively. When the synchronizing screw rotates, it drives the two clamping blocks to rotate synchronously around the connecting blocks.

[0010] Furthermore, a pair of side plates are formed on the outer side of the clamping block, and a connecting post is inserted between the two side plates. A threaded hole is opened on the connecting post, and the threaded section of the synchronizing screw mates with the threaded hole on the connecting post.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting post has a T-shaped structure, and after passing through the two side plates, it is connected to a pin.

[0012] Furthermore, a hexagonal post is provided at the outer end of the threaded section, and the hexagonal post is suitable for engaging with an internal hexagon socket wrench.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: by changing the fixing method between the mold body and the core shooting machine mounting plate, a clamping mechanism is made on the two mounting plates of the core shooting machine, and the mold feet on both sides of the mold body are quickly clamped by the clamping mechanism, which greatly improves the mold assembly and disassembly efficiency, and the assembly and disassembly time is shortened from 30 minutes to 5 minutes.

Detailed Implementation

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

[0017] This application provides a mold foot structure for quick mold installation, which will be described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own emphasis; parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to in the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0018] To address the technical problem of low assembly and disassembly efficiency of molds between the core shooter mounting plates 6 in the prior art, an embodiment of this application provides a mold foot structure for quick mold installation. This will be described in detail below.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a quick-installation mold foot structure includes four clamping mechanisms, which are respectively mounted on two mounting plates 6 of the core shooter. Each mounting plate 6 has one clamping mechanism mounted on its upper and lower sides. Each clamping mechanism includes a pair of clamping blocks 5 that can move synchronously. There are four mold feet 2, which are distributed on both sides of the mold body 1, with two mold feet 2 on each side. The inner side of each mold foot 2 is detachably connected to the mold body 1, and the other side of each mold foot 2 is connected to the clamping mechanism. During installation, the two clamping blocks 5 of each clamping mechanism clamp the two sides of the mold foot 2 synchronously.

[0020] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the mold foot 2 includes a mold foot body. Multiple bolt holes are opened on the inner side of the mold foot body and on the mold body 1. Multiple connecting bolts pass through the bolt holes on the mold foot body and the mold body 1, thereby fixing the mold body 1 and the mold foot body together. Clamping slots 21 are opened at both ends of the mold foot body. The two clamping blocks 5 of the clamping mechanism cooperate with the clamping slots 21 of the mold foot body to clamp the mold foot body.

[0021] The mold body 1 is mounted on both sides via mold feet 2. In actual operation, one set of mold feet 2 can accommodate multiple mold bodies. The installation position of each mold body is determined by the bolt holes on the mold feet 2. Larger molds require more bolt holes, while smaller molds require relatively fewer bolt holes.

[0022] The mold body 1 consists of two parts, the left half and the right half, which are clamped together after being joined.

[0023] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the clamping mechanism includes a pair of connecting blocks 4, which are fixed to the front and rear sides of the mounting plate 6 respectively; a pair of clamping blocks 5, which are hinged to the connecting blocks 4 in the middle and form a bayonet between the inner end of the clamping blocks 5 and the mounting plate 6; and a synchronous screw 3, which is located on the outside of the mounting plate 6. The synchronous screw 3 has a rod body 31 in the middle and threaded sections 32 at both ends of the rod body 31. The helical directions of the two threaded sections 32 are opposite, and the two threaded sections 32 are threadedly connected to the two clamping blocks 5 respectively. When the synchronous screw 3 rotates, it drives the two clamping blocks 5 to rotate synchronously around the connecting blocks 4 respectively.

[0024] In this embodiment, the inner end of the clamping block 5 is an L-shaped structure, which is used to clamp the mold foot 2.

[0025] In this embodiment, the clamping block 5 and the connecting block 4 are connected by a pin 41. Sufficient radial clearance is maintained between the clamping block 5 and the pin 41 so that when the synchronous screw 3 rotates, it can drive the outer side of the clamping block 5 to move, thus avoiding interference between the clamping block 5 and the connecting block 4.

[0026] In this embodiment, the clamping block 5 can rotate at a small angle on the connecting block 4 to clamp the mold foot 2. In this embodiment, the clamping block 5 rotates at a relatively small angle, less than 5°.

[0027] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a pair of side plates 51 are formed on the outer side of the clamping block 5, and a connecting post 52 is inserted between the two side plates 51. A threaded hole is opened on the connecting post 52, and the threaded section 32 of the synchronizing screw 3 is engaged with the threaded hole on the connecting post 52.

[0028] In this embodiment, the connecting post 52 has a T-shaped structure, and after passing through the two side plates 51, it is connected to the pin 53. The pin 53 is used to prevent the connecting post 52 from axially dislodging from the side plates 51.

[0029] Similarly, a certain radial gap is maintained between the connecting column 52 and the side plate 51 to ensure that the clamping block 5 can rotate at a small angle.

[0030] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a hexagonal post 33 is provided at the outer end of the threaded section 32, and the hexagonal post 33 is adapted to cooperate with an internal hexagon socket wrench.

[0031] The design of the hexagonal column 33 is mainly to facilitate the rotation of the synchronous screw 3.

[0032] In the above embodiment, without the hexagonal column 33, the synchronous screw 3 can only be rotated by screwing the middle rod 31.

[0033] When the clamping mechanism is in operation, the synchronous screw 3 drives the two clamping blocks 5 to move synchronously. The clamping blocks 5 do not need to rotate at a large angle during operation. Since the inner end of the clamping block 5 has an L-shaped structure, a bayonet is formed between the inner end of the clamping block 5 and the mounting plate 6. This bayonet is used for inserting the mold body. After the mold body is inserted into the bayonet, the inner end of the clamping block 5 is normally in the clamping opening 21 of the mold body. As the synchronous screw 3 rotates, it drives the clamping block 5 to clamp the inner surface of the clamping opening 21 of the mold body, clamping the mold body onto the mounting plate 6. When it is necessary to remove the mold body 1, the synchronous screw 3 is rotated in the opposite direction by a certain angle, so that the clamping block 5 can rotate at a small angle and be released from the mold body. After the clamping block 5 is released, the entire mold body 1 is lifted upward by the lifting device.

[0034] This utility model relates to a quick-installation mold base structure, which modifies the base structure and adds four clamping mechanisms. These clamping mechanisms are mounted on the mounting plate 6 of the core shooter. (See attached image.) Figure 1 Two molds are installed on each mounting plate 6, arranged vertically. After the mold body 1 is closed, it is locked and then lifted by a lifting device. The mold feet 2 on the left and right sides of the mold body 1 are inserted downward into the slots. Then, the clamping mechanism controls the two clamping blocks 5 at the front and rear to clamp the mold body synchronously.
