[0058] 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.
[0059] Example 1:
[0060] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides an electric vehicle gearbox housing molding device, including: a support frame 1 and a mold structure arranged on the support frame 1 for casting the electric vehicle gearbox housing.
[0061] The mold structure includes two gearbox mold shells 2 slidably mounted on the support frame 1, two mold cavities 201 respectively opened inside the two gearbox mold shells 2, a central mold 202 arranged on the support frame 1 and movably mounted between the two gearbox mold shells 2, a connecting frame 203 arranged on the support frame 1, a hydraulic cylinder 204 arranged on the connecting frame 203, a cover plate 205 arranged on the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 204, and a pouring pipe 206 arranged on the cover plate 205 and connected to the corresponding mold cavity 201. When the two gearbox mold shells 2 are closed, the central mold 202 will be sandwiched in the middle, and the connected mold cavity 201 forms the pouring groove of the gearbox shell. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 204 is opened to control the cover plate 205 to descend and cover the gearbox mold shell 2. The molten metal can be injected into the mold cavity 201 for pouring through the pouring pipe 206.
[0062] Example 2:
[0063] Based on Example 1, in order to enable the cast electric vehicle gearbox housing to be formed quickly, a cooling structure for cooling the mold structure and the cast gearbox housing is arranged on the mold structure.
[0064] The cooling structure includes a guide shell 3 arranged on the gearbox mold housing 2, a guide channel 301 opened inside the guide shell 3, a mounting bracket 302 located inside the support frame 1, a coolant tank 303 arranged on the mounting bracket 302, a telescopic pipe 304 and a telescopic pipe 305 arranged on the guide shell 3 and connected to the guide channel 301, and a suction pump 306 arranged at one end of the telescopic pipe 304. The suction end of the suction pump 306 is located inside the coolant tank 303. The suction pump 306 is turned on to draw out the coolant in the coolant tank 303 and transport it to the guide channel 301 through the telescopic pipe 304. Finally, it flows back to the coolant tank 303 from the telescopic pipe 305. As the coolant flows, it can carry away the heat during casting and quickly cool down the gearbox housing.
[0065] The cooling structure also includes several guide plates 307 arranged alternately inside the guide shell 3. The guide plates 307 are arranged on the outer surface of the gearbox mold shell 2 and on the mounting bracket 302 for cooling the coolant in the coolant tank 303. The arrangement of several guide plates 307 can increase the residence time of the coolant in the guide shell 3 and improve the heat exchange effect.
[0066] Specifically, the air-cooled assembly includes a cooling gearbox 308 arranged on the mounting bracket 302, a fan blade 309 arranged on the output end of the cooling gearbox 308, and a heat-conducting copper plate 310 arranged on the inner wall of the bottom side of the coolant tank 303 for conducting the temperature of the coolant in the coolant tank 303. The heat-conducting copper plate 310 is located above the fan blade 309. The temperature of the coolant in the coolant tank 303 can be conducted to the heat-conducting copper plate 310. By turning on the cooling gearbox 308, the fan blade 309 can blow air towards the heat-conducting copper plate 310 to cool down the coolant.
[0067] Example 3:
[0068] Based on Example 1, in order to facilitate quick demolding of the molded gearbox housing, a demolding structure for demolding the finished gearbox housing is arranged on the mold structure.
[0069] The demolding structure includes four hydraulic cylinders 4 symmetrically arranged above the support frame 1. The telescopic ends of the four hydraulic cylinders 4 are respectively arranged on two guide shells 3. The knocking component is arranged inside the central mold 202 to knock the central mold 202 to generate vibration to assist demolding. By controlling the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinders 4 on both sides, the gearbox mold shells 2 on both sides can be driven to open and close.
[0070] Specifically, the striking assembly includes a connecting shaft 401 rotatably mounted inside the central mold 202, a U-shaped frame 402 arranged on the support frame 1, a reduction gearbox 403 arranged on one side of the U-shaped frame 402, the output end of the reduction gearbox 403 being arranged on the connecting shaft 401, several turntables 404 being evenly fixedly mounted on the connecting shaft 401, and striking rods 405 rotatably mounted on the corresponding turntables 404. The reduction gearbox 403 is activated to drive the connecting shaft 401 to rotate slowly. The connecting shaft 401 can drive the multiple turntables 404 to rotate, and the turntables 404 in turn drive the striking rods 405 to move in a circular motion.
[0071] Specifically, the striking assembly also includes a rotating shaft 406 rotatably mounted inside the turntable 404 and arranged on the striking rod 405, a torsion spring 407 arranged on the inner wall of the turntable 404, one end of the torsion spring 407 being arranged on the rotating shaft 406, and several extrusion blocks 408 evenly arranged on the inner wall of the central mold 202. During the movement of the striking rod 405, it will be squeezed by the extrusion blocks 408 and flipped, causing the striking rod 405 to compress the torsion spring 407. When the striking rod 405 disengages from the extrusion block 408, the torsion spring 407 will drive the striking rod 405 to flip back to its original position and strike the inner wall of the central mold 202, causing it to vibrate so as to loosen the mold more quickly.
[0072] Working principle: During the processing of the electric vehicle gearbox housing, the extension and retraction of the two hydraulic cylinders 24 on both sides can drive the two gearbox mold housings 2 to open and close. When the two gearbox mold housings 2 close, they will clamp the central mold 202 in the middle, connecting the mold cavities 201 inside the two gearbox mold housings 2. The connected mold cavities 201 form the casting groove of the gearbox housing. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 204 is opened to control the cover plate 205 to descend and cover the gearbox mold housing 2. Molten metal can be injected into the mold cavity 201 through the casting pipe 206 for casting. After the casting is completed, the suction pump 306 can be turned on to extract the coolant in the coolant tank 303 and use it for... The coolant is delivered to the guide channel 301 via the telescopic pipe 304. The coolant passes through the staggered guide plates 307 and finally flows back to the coolant tank 303 via the telescopic pipe 305. The heat during casting is transferred to the coolant through the gearbox mold shell 2. The heat is carried away by the flow of the coolant, achieving rapid cooling of the gearbox shell casting and enabling the gearbox shell to be formed quickly. The temperature of the coolant in the coolant tank 303 can be conducted to the heat-conducting copper plate 310. By turning on the cooling gearbox 308, the fan blades 309 can be rotated to blow air towards the heat-conducting copper plate 310 for cooling, thereby cooling the coolant in the coolant tank 303.
[0073] During demolding, the reduction gearbox 403 is first activated to drive the connecting shaft 401 to rotate slowly. The connecting shaft 401 drives multiple turntables 404 to rotate, and the turntables 404 drive the striking rod 405 to rotate circumferentially via the rotating shaft 406. During the circumferential motion of the striking rod 405, it is squeezed by the extrusion block 408 and flips, which in turn causes the striking rod 405 to drive the rotating shaft 406 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 406 rotates, it compresses the torsion spring 407, causing the torsion spring 407 to compress and store energy. When the circumferentially moving striking rod 405 disengages from the extrusion block 408... Upon contact, the compressed torsion spring 407 drives the rotating shaft 406 to rotate and reset, which in turn drives the striking rod 405 to flip and reset and strike the inner wall of the central mold 202, causing it to vibrate so as to loosen the mold more quickly. Then, the cover plate 205 is controlled to rise, and the guide shells 3 on both sides and the gearbox mold shell 2 are unfolded by the hydraulic cylinder 2, so that the formed gearbox shell can be removed from the central mold 202. During the unfolding and movement of the gearbox mold shell 2, the telescopic tube 1 304 and the telescopic tube 2 305 will extend and retract to adapt.
