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.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an automatic waxing device includes a support 1, a lifting mechanism 2, a rotating mechanism 3, and a waxing mechanism 4. The lifting mechanism 2 is located in the middle of the support 1, and its output end is provided with the rotating mechanism 3. The lifting mechanism 2 is used to drive the mold core 5 on the rotating mechanism 3 to move to the waxing station. The rotating mechanism 3 is used to position and drive the mold core 5 to rotate. The waxing mechanism 4 is located at the upper end of the support 1, above the rotating mechanism 3, and includes a waxing head 41 and a translation module 42. The output end of the translation module 42 is provided with the waxing head 41, which can drive the waxing head 41 to move axially along the mold core 5. In this embodiment, the translation module 42 is a linear module, but it is not limited to this.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the support 1 is a gantry frame, mainly assembled from aluminum profiles. A detection sensor is provided on one side of the inner side of the support 1 to detect whether it is in place. When the mold core 5 is fed to the rotating mechanism 3, the detection sensor detects that the mold core 5 is in place, the lifting mechanism 2 is started, and the mold core 5 is driven to move up to the waxing station. Then the rotating mechanism 3 and the translation module 42 are started, the mold core 5 rotates, and the waxing head 41 moves along the axial direction of the mold core 5. The rotation and translation speed are controlled so that the waxing head can evenly and comprehensively apply wax to the surface of the mold core, completing the automatic waxing and improving the waxing efficiency and waxing quality.

[0029] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a mounting plate 21, a lifting cylinder 22, and guide rods 23. The mounting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the bracket 1 via a mounting seat located inside the bracket 1. The lifting cylinder 22 is installed in the middle of the mounting plate 21, and its output end is provided with a lifting seat 24. Multiple guide rods 23 are provided and arranged around the lifting cylinder 22. The top of the guide rod 23 is connected to the lifting seat 24, and the lower end is inserted into the guide sleeve on the mounting plate 21 and slidably connected to the guide sleeve.

[0030] like Figure 1 , 2As shown, the rotating mechanism 3 is mounted on the lifting seat 24 and includes a drive disk 31 and a rotating drive assembly 32. Two symmetrically arranged rotating side plates 33 are mounted above the lifting seat 24. There are four drive disks 31, which are symmetrically arranged in pairs on the upper end of the rotating side plates 33. The two drive disks 31 in each group are arranged side by side with intervals. The mold core 5 is placed between the two drive disks 31. The rotating drive assembly 32 is used to drive the two groups of drive disks 31 to rotate synchronously.

[0031] In the above structure, the rotary drive assembly 32 includes a rotating shaft 321, a servo motor 322, a main synchronous pulley 323, a driven synchronous pulley 324, a first transmission synchronous pulley 325, and a second transmission synchronous pulley 326. The rotating shaft 321 is located above the lifting seat 24 and is rotatably connected to the lifting seat 24 via a bearing housing. The servo motor 322 is located on one side of the lifting seat 24, and its output end is equipped with the main synchronous pulley 323. The driven synchronous pulley 324 is located in the middle of the rotating shaft 321 and is belt-driven connected to the main synchronous pulley 323 via a first transmission belt (not shown in the figure). The two sides of the rotating shaft 321... Each end is provided with a first transmission synchronous pulley 325. The drive disk 31 is located at one end of the drive shaft 327. The other end of the drive shaft 327 is provided with a second transmission synchronous pulley 326 corresponding to the drive disk 31. The drive shaft 327 is located at the upper end of the rotating side plate 33 and is rotatably connected to the rotating side plate 33 through a bearing. Each first transmission synchronous pulley 325 is connected to the two second transmission synchronous pulleys 326 of each set of drive disks 31 through a second transmission belt (not shown in the figure). A tensioning pulley for tensioning the second transmission belt is provided between the first transmission synchronous pulley 325 and the second transmission synchronous pulley.

[0032] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, the rotating mechanism 3 also includes two fixed wheels 34. The two fixed wheels 34 are mounted on the bracket 1 through wheel seats 35 and are respectively located in the middle position directly above the two sets of drive disks 31. The fixed wheels 34 are rotatably connected to the wheel seats 35, and the fixed wheels 34 abut against or separate from the mold core 5 located on the drive disk 31 through the lifting mechanism 2.

[0033] The servo motor starts (322), driving the main synchronous pulley (323), the driven synchronous pulley (324), and the rotating shaft (321) to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft (321) drives the first transmission synchronous pulley (325) at both ends of the rotating shaft (321) to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission synchronous pulley (325) drives the four second transmission synchronous pulleys (326) corresponding to the two sets of drive disks (31) to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the mold core (5) located on the two sets of drive disks (31) to rotate. Before rotation, the upper side of the mold core (5) abuts against the fixed wheel (34), and the end is located between the two drive disks (31) and the fixed wheel (34), ensuring the effective rotation of the mold core (5).

[0034] like Figure 1 , 3As shown, the waxing mechanism 4 also includes a wax box 43, a translation cylinder 44, and a lifting cylinder 45. The wax box 43 is mounted on the bracket 1 via a wax box mounting base 431 and is located below the waxing head 41. The translation cylinder 44 is located at the output end of the translation module 42 and is perpendicular to the translation module 42. The output end of the translation cylinder 44 is equipped with the lifting cylinder 45, and the output end of the lifting cylinder 45 is equipped with the waxing head 41. The translation module 42, the translation cylinder 44, and the lifting cylinder 45 enable the waxing head 41 to move in three directions (XYZ), providing good flexibility and allowing the waxing head to automatically apply wax.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Based on the structure of Example 1, such as Figure 3 As shown, the waxing mechanism 4 also includes a rotary cylinder 46, which is located between the translation cylinder 44 and the lifting cylinder 45, and is used to drive the waxing head 41 to rotate. The rotary cylinder 45 ensures that the waxing sponge is fully coated with wax.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the waxing head 41 includes an upper waxing plate 411, a lower waxing plate 412, and a waxing sponge 413. The lower waxing plate 412 is located below the upper waxing plate 411, and sliding rods 414 are provided on both sides of the lower waxing plate 412, which are slidably connected to the upper waxing plate 411 through the sliding rods 414. A spring 415 is sleeved on the outside of the sliding rods 414 and located between the upper waxing plate 411 and the lower waxing plate 412. The waxing sponge 413 is located below the lower waxing plate 412. Through the above arrangement, the waxing head and the mold core are elastically connected, which can reduce the impact on the equipment and improve the stability of the equipment.

[0038] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown, the wax box mounting base 431 has a wax box support base 432 at one end. The upper end of the wax box support base 432 has multiple positioning blocks 433 arranged circumferentially. Each positioning block 433 has a positioning rod 434 threadedly connected to it. The wax box 43 is mounted on the wax box support base 432, and the outer periphery of the wax box 43 has multiple fixing plates 435 corresponding to the positioning blocks 433. The wax box 43 is fixedly connected to the wax box support base 432 through the cooperation of the fixing plates 435 and the positioning rods 434. When installing the wax box, place the wax box between the multiple positioning blocks 433 of the wax box support base 432, aligning the fixing plates 435 with the positioning blocks 433. Tighten the positioning rods 434; the positioning rods 434 move towards the wax box 43, securing the wax box 43. Conversely, if the positioning rods 434 are twisted in the opposite direction, they retract outwards, allowing the wax box 43 to be removed.

[0039] In addition, a heating rod 436 is provided below the wax box 43. The heating rod 436 is mounted on the wax box support 432 and is used to heat the wax box 43. A thermocouple is also provided on one side of the heating rod 436. The thermocouple detects the temperature of the wax box 43 and controls the opening and closing of the heating rod 436.

[0040] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After the mold core 5 is loaded onto the drive plate 31, the lifting mechanism 2 starts to drive the rotating mechanism 3 to rise to the waxing station, and the mold core 5 rises to abut against the fixed wheel 34 directly above; then the translation module 42, translation cylinder 44, and lifting cylinder 45 are activated, the waxing head 41 moves into the wax box 43, allowing the waxing sponge 413 to fully contact the upper surface of the wax in the wax box 43, and the rotating cylinder 46 is activated to drive the waxing sponge 413 to rotate, so that the sponge is fully coated with wax; After waxing is completed, the waxing head 41 is removed from the wax box 43 and reset to the initial waxing point at one end of the mold core 5. The lifting cylinder 45 descends, the waxing sponge 413 is pressed onto the mold core 5, the rotating mechanism 3 is started, and the mold core 5 is rotated. At the same time, the translation module 42 drives the waxing head 41 to translate along the axial direction of the mold core 5, so that the waxing head can apply wax to the surface of the mold core. After waxing is completed, the waxing head 41 is reset back to the initial waxing point, the lifting mechanism 2 descends, the rotating mechanism 3 returns to the starting position, the mold core 5 can be unloaded, and the automatic waxing is completed.
