Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sand casting technology, specifically to a casting sand separation device. Background Technology

[0002] Sand casting is a casting method that produces castings in sand molds. Steel, iron, and most non-ferrous alloy castings can be obtained using sand casting. Because the molding materials used in sand casting are inexpensive and readily available, and the mold manufacturing is simple, it can adapt to single-piece production, batch production, and mass production of castings. For a long time, it has been a basic process in casting production.

[0003] The process of separating molding sand generates a large amount of dust, which spreads unchecked and severely pollutes the working environment. Early dust collection designs were often flawed; some equipment used only simple side-suction hoods or small enclosed hoods, limiting the dust collection range and failing to fully cover the critical areas of molding sand processing. This resulted in a large amount of dust overflowing. Furthermore, uneven suction power distribution could lead to excessive suction in certain areas, potentially drawing in molding sand particles and affecting the normal separation and recovery of the sand. Poor dust collection processes resulted in significant dust generation and overflow during production, polluting the environment and causing the finished sand and gravel powder content to exceed standards. This reflects the problem of low dust collection efficiency. Utility Model Content

For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0026] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] The present application provides a casting sand separation device, including a collection box 1; a tilt adjustment component 2 is installed on the top of the collection box 1, a secondary box 5 is provided on one side of the collection box 1, and a dust collection component 3 is provided on the top of the tilt adjustment component 2 and the secondary box 5.

[0028] The dust collection assembly 3 includes a dust cover 301, an air chamber 302, air holes 303, and a connecting pipe 304. The dust cover 301 is installed above the tilt adjustment assembly 2 and the secondary box 5, respectively. The dust cover 301 has an air chamber 302 inside. Air holes 303 are equally spaced on the inner side of the dust cover 301 and are connected to the air chamber 302. The connecting pipe 304 is installed on the top of the dust cover 301.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, during the molding sand processing, the frictional dust generated when the rotating roller 203 on the tilting adjustment component 2 transports the molding sand, and the fine particles raised when the screening component 6 in the collection box 1 and the secondary box 5 vibrates and screens the molding sand, will diffuse into the space covered by the dust cover 301. Since the air holes 303 evenly spaced on the inner side of the dust cover 301 are directly connected to the air chamber 302, and the air chamber 302 is under negative pressure, according to the principle of air pressure difference, these diffused dust particles will be carried by the airflow formed at the air holes 303 and enter the interior of the air chamber 302 through the air holes 303. Under the continuous push of the negative pressure airflow, the dust particles entering the air chamber 302 will converge along the internal channel of the air chamber 302 towards the connecting pipe 304. Since the air chamber 302 is a closed space... The vents 303 are evenly spaced, ensuring uniform suction power across the area covered by the dust cover 301. This prevents dust accumulation or leakage. Finally, the dust is transported through the connecting pipe 304 to the dust collection device of the external negative pressure equipment for centralized collection. As a physical barrier for dust collection, the dust cover 301 precisely covers the key areas of molding sand processing, effectively limiting the spread of dust and confining it inside the dust cover 301. This improves the dust capture efficiency of the vents 303. At the same time, the evenly spaced design of the vents 303 ensures uniform distribution of adsorption force, preventing the accidental suction of molding sand particles due to excessive local suction or dust residue due to insufficient local suction.

[0030] Furthermore, a discharge port 101 is symmetrically provided on one side of the collection box 1, and a sealing cover 102 is installed inside the discharge port 101. A screening assembly 6 and a lifting assembly 7 are installed sequentially from top to bottom inside the collection box 1 and the secondary box 5. A guide plate 4 is provided on one side of the collection box 1, and a feed inlet 501 is provided on one side of the secondary box 5 at a position corresponding to the guide plate 4. The screening assembly 6 includes a mounting plate 601, a vibrating motor 602, and a screen 603. The mounting plate 601 is installed on the collection box 1 and the secondary box 5. On the inner wall, a vibration motor 602 is installed on the top of the mounting plate 601, and a sieve screen 603 is installed on the top of the vibration motor 602. The lifting assembly 7 includes a hydraulic cylinder 701 and a guide plate 702. The hydraulic cylinder 701 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the discharge port 101 and the secondary box 5. The guide plate 702 is rotatably installed on the top of the hydraulic cylinder 701. A discharge door 2 8 is opened on one side of the secondary box 5 at the corresponding position of the vibration motor 602 and the guide plate 702. A protective plate 9 is installed inside the discharge door 2 8.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the molding sand to be processed is conveyed to the tilt adjustment component 2, and the molding sand is smoothly conveyed along the tilted mounting frame 202 into the collection box 1. This step, through the adjustment of the tilt angle, can adapt to the conveying needs of molding sand with different flow rates, ensuring that the molding sand enters the subsequent processing process evenly. After the molding sand enters the collection box 1, it first falls onto the screen 603 of the screening component 6. The vibration motor 602 starts, driving the screen 603 to vibrate at high frequency, performing preliminary screening of the molding sand. Molding sand particles that meet the particle size requirements fall through the screen 603 to the bottom of the collection box 1, while larger impurities or agglomerated molding sand are intercepted on the surface of the screen 603. When it is necessary to clean these impurities, the hydraulic cylinder 701 in the lifting component 7 extends, pushing the guide plate 702 to rotate upward, pushing the impurities on the surface of the guide plate 702 toward the discharge port 101. The impurities can be discharged by opening the sealing cover 102. After the molding sand is preliminarily screened by the collection box 1, some of it will enter the secondary box 5 through the feed port 501 through the guide plate 4 under its own gravity and vibration. Inside the secondary box 5, the same screening component 6 performs a second fine screening of the molding sand to further remove residual fine impurities and improve the purity of the molding sand. The impurities remaining on the screen 603 after the second screening can be discharged from the discharge gate 8 by activating the corresponding lifting component 7.

[0032] Furthermore, the tilt adjustment assembly 2 includes an electric push rod 201, a mounting frame 202, and a rotating roller 203. The electric push rod 201 is installed at equal intervals on the top of the collection box 1. The mounting frame 202 is installed on the top of the electric push rod 201. The rotating roller 203 is rotatably installed at equal intervals on the inner side of the mounting frame 202. A dust cover 301 is installed above the mounting frame 202.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the molding sand to be processed is conveyed to the tilt adjustment component 2. The electric actuator 201 can extend and retract according to actual needs, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the mounting frame 202. The rotating roller 203 inside the mounting frame 202 rotates under the action of the weight of the molding sand and the external thrust, smoothly conveying the molding sand along the tilted mounting frame 202 into the collection box 1. This step, by adjusting the tilt angle, can adapt to the molding sand conveying requirements of different flow rates, ensuring that the molding sand enters the subsequent processing evenly.

[0034] Working principle: The molding sand to be processed is conveyed to the tilt adjustment component 2. The electric actuator 201 adjusts the tilt angle of the mounting frame 202, and the rotating roller 203 smoothly feeds the molding sand into the collection box 1. The molding sand first falls onto the sieve screen 603 of the screening component 6 in the collection box 1. The vibration motor 602 drives the sieve screen 603 to vibrate, performing preliminary screening. Qualified molding sand falls to the bottom of the box, while impurities are discharged from the discharge port 101 by the hydraulic cylinder 701 of the lifting component 7, pushing the guide plate 702. Partial preliminary screening is achieved. After the molding sand is fed into the secondary box 5 through the feed inlet 501 via the guide plate 4, the screening component 6 in the secondary box 5 performs secondary screening to further remove impurities. The impurities are discharged from the discharge gate 8 through the lifting component 7. The dust collection component 3 works simultaneously. The external negative pressure equipment creates negative pressure in the air chamber 302 in the dust cover 301 through the connecting pipe 304. The dust generated during the molding sand processing is sucked into the air chamber 302 by the air hole 303 and sent to the external dust collection device through the connecting pipe 304 to achieve centralized dust collection.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications and equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
