[0002] Engine cylinder blocks are generally made of ductile iron. The casting process requires creating riser necks on the sidewalls of the water jacket sand core to facilitate riser feeding. Currently, the common practice is to place the finished water jacket sand core on a drilling machine to drill holes, thereby creating the riser necks on the sidewalls. This method is cumbersome and inefficient. Drilling is done after the water jacket sand core has solidified, which severely tests the skill level of the drilling operators. Slight carelessness can damage the water jacket sand core and is also not conducive to controlling product quality. Utility Model Content

When the telescopic unit is working, it drives the sloping rail block to rise, thereby driving the two sloping guide rail blocks to move horizontally in opposite directions, and driving the riser neck insert to form a riser neck on the sidewall of the water jacket sand core.
[0005] In one feasible technical solution of this application, the riser neck insert is a cylindrical structure with an internal threaded hole at the central axis of the cylindrical structure.

[0012] Secondly, this application provides a punching and mold-opening mechanism, which adopts the following technical solution: A drilling and mold-opening mechanism includes multiple sets of block-pulling mechanisms for drilling the sidewalls of water jacket sand cores, as described above.
[0013] In one feasible technical solution of this application, it further includes a bottom frame, a lower module seat, a lower core box module, an upper core box module, an upper module seat, an air blowing plate, and a sand shooting plate, which are assembled sequentially from bottom to top.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.
[0027] This application discloses a block-pulling mechanism 100 for drilling holes in the sidewall of a water jacket sand core. (Refer to...) Figure 1-4The drilling mechanism 100 for the sidewall of the water jacket sand core includes a vertically arranged telescopic unit 1 and a lower mold insert 2. The lower mold insert 2 has a cover-like structure, and its outer peripheral wall is adapted to the inner peripheral sidewall of the water jacket sand core. A sloping rail block 3 is provided at the top of the telescopic end of the telescopic unit 1. The width of the sloping rail block 3 gradually increases from top to bottom and forms two driving inclined surfaces on both sides. Vertically arranged inclined guide rail blocks 4 are attached to the two driving inclined surfaces respectively. The inner side is provided with a guide slope adapted to the drive slope. The top of the inclined guide block 4 is inserted into the inner cavity of the lower mold insert 2. The outer side of the top of the inclined guide block 4 is fixedly equipped with a horizontally arranged riser neck insert 5. The side wall of the lower mold insert 2 is provided with a hole 21 for the riser neck insert 5 to slide through. When the telescopic unit 1 is working, it drives the inclined rail column block 3 to rise so as to drive the two inclined guide blocks 4 to move horizontally in opposite directions, and drives the riser neck insert 5 to form a riser neck on the side wall of the water jacket sand core.
[0028] In this embodiment, the riser neck insert 5 is a cylindrical structure with an internally threaded hole 51 at its central axis. The riser neck insert 5 is connected to the top of the inclined guide block 4 by a first screw 6, the head of which is concealed in the internally threaded hole 51. The top of the inclined guide block 4 has an arc surface 41 flush with the outer peripheral wall of the riser neck insert 5, and the outer end of the riser neck insert 5 has a gradually decreasing inclined conical surface 52. The riser neck insert 5 designed above has a simple structure, is easy to install, and facilitates rapid forming of the riser neck.
[0029] To make the sliding between the inclined rail block 3 and the inclined guide rail block 4 more stable, T-shaped sliders 31 arranged obliquely are provided on both sides of the inclined rail block 3, and T-shaped grooves 42 are provided on the inner side of the inclined guide rail block 4, and the T-shaped sliders 31 slide freely within the T-shaped sliders 31.
[0030] In this embodiment, the telescopic unit 1 includes a vertically arranged cylinder 11 and a connecting unit. The connecting unit is located between the bottom of the inclined rail block 3 and the top of the telescopic shaft of the cylinder 11. The connecting unit includes an upper connecting block 12 with a fixing plate connected to the bottom of the inclined rail block 3. A lower connecting block 13 is fixed to the upper connecting block 12 by bolts. A T-shaped connecting groove is provided at the bottom of the lower connecting block 13. A T-shaped connecting head 14 that can rotate freely in the T-shaped connecting groove is fixed to the top of the telescopic unit 1. The telescopic unit 1 designed above has a simple structure and a firm connection, and is not prone to loosening with frequent use.
[0031] To make the inclined guide block 4 more stable when moving horizontally, a horizontally arranged guide rod 8 is fixed on the outer wall of the inclined guide block 4 by a second screw 7. A support block 9 is also fixed inside the mold body, and the guide rod 8 is slidably assembled in the support block 9.
[0032] The beneficial technical effects of the block-pulling mechanism 100 for drilling the sidewall of the water jacket sand core in this application embodiment are roughly as follows: When the telescopic unit 1 is working, it drives the inclined rail block 3 to rise, thereby driving the two inclined guide rail blocks 4 to move horizontally in opposite directions. It also drives the riser neck insert 5 to form a riser neck on the side wall of the water jacket sand core. Thus, the riser neck can be integrally formed on the side wall during the production process of the water jacket sand core, which simplifies the production process, improves production efficiency, and no longer depends on the technical level of the drilling operator. Therefore, it is not easy to damage the water jacket sand core, which is conducive to controlling product quality.
[0033] This application also provides a punching and mold-opening mechanism, as described in the embodiments below. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The drilling and mold-opening mechanism includes multiple sets of block-pulling mechanisms 100 for drilling the sidewalls of the water jacket sand core, as described above, and a bottom frame 200, a lower module base 300, a lower core box module 400, an upper core box module 500, an upper module base 600, an air blowing plate 700, and a sand-shooting plate 800 assembled sequentially from bottom to top. The bottom frame 200, lower module base 300, and lower core box module 400 form a square frame structure. A lower top plate 900 is provided inside the bottom frame 200. The multiple sets of block-pulling mechanisms 100 for drilling the sidewalls of the water jacket sand core are all installed on the lower top plate 900 and arranged at intervals in the inner cavity of the square frame structure. Specifically, there are six sets of block-pulling mechanisms 100 for drilling the sidewalls of the water jacket sand core.
[0034] The above-mentioned drilling and mold-opening mechanism can integrally form the riser neck on the side wall during the production of the water jacket sand core, which simplifies the production process, improves production efficiency, and no longer depends on the technical level of the drilling operator, thus making it less likely to damage the water jacket sand core and helping to control product quality.
[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
