Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metal casting processing technology, and in particular relates to a guide plate for dividing series metal castings. Background Technology

[0002] Metal casting involves filling a pre-designed mold cavity with smelted molten metal through pouring, injection, or other methods. One of the core costs of casting is the "utilization rate of a single pour." For small, simple castings, if a single mold only produces one casting, it will result in multiple pouring operations and wasted time.

[0003] Therefore, the mold design adopts a "multi-cavity layout". By sharing a single gating system, multiple castings can be formed simultaneously in one pour. After production, these castings need to be divided. The traditional method of division is to use a cutting machine and a movable seat to cut and separate the series of castings. However, the individual castings after separation may occasionally fall onto the surface of the movable seat and need to be manually removed by the staff. To address this, a guide plate for dividing series metal castings has been designed. This device adds an inclined guide plate to the top of the movable seat, which allows the individual castings after cutting to slide naturally to the discharge port, thus avoiding the situation where the castings are cut again due to falling onto the surface of the movable seat. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a guide plate for dividing series metal castings, which allows the individual castings after cutting to slide naturally to the discharge port, thereby avoiding the castings from being cut again due to falling onto the surface of the movable seat, thus solving the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A guide plate for splitting metal castings in series includes a movable seat installed on the top of a cutting machine; a support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the movable seat by bolts; guide plates are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the top of the support plate; a reinforcing connecting strip is fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the two guide plates by bolts; a perforated support rod is rotatably connected to the rear side of the bottom of the reinforcing connecting strip; a support rod is rotatably connected to the front side of the bottom of the reinforcing connecting strip; two positioning grooves are welded to the front side of the top of the support plate; a positioning structure is provided in the inner cavity of the support rod; two perforated positioning grooves are welded to the rear side of the top of the support plate; and a limit bolt is slidably connected between the bottom of the perforated support rod and the inner cavity of the perforated positioning groove.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom of the support rod has a circular hole, and the positioning structure includes a fixing column welded to the inner cavity of the circular hole.

[0007] Preferably, circular plates are slidably connected to both the front and rear sides of the inner cavity of the circular hole, and springs are welded between the two circular plates and the fixed post.

[0008] Preferably, a round-headed post is welded to one end of each of the discs facing away from each other, and a round tube is connected to both the front and rear sides of the positioning groove.

[0009] Preferably, the surface of the round-headed column is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the round tube, and the inner cavity of the round tube is slidably connected to an abutment rod.

[0010] Preferably, the end of the abutment rod opposite to the positioning groove is fixedly connected to a round head, and a transparent baffle is fixedly connected to the front side of the movable seat by bolts.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model causes the support rod to deflect by moving it. Then, under the action of the spring, the round-headed column slides back into the inner cavity of the round tube, thereby limiting the position of the support rod. At the same time, the limiting bolt is inserted back into the inner cavity of the opening support rod and the opening positioning groove, so that the guide plate is supported. This allows the cut individual castings to slide naturally to the position of the discharge port, thereby avoiding the castings being cut again due to falling onto the surface of the movable seat. 2. The rounded head of this utility model provides padding protection between the worker and the contact surface of the abutment rod, making the pressing process more comfortable for the worker. 3. By setting up a transparent baffle, this utility model can block the flying debris during the cutting process of metal castings in series by the cutting machine, and at the same time, it can facilitate the observation of the workers.

A positioning structure 9 is provided within the inner cavity of the support rod 7. A perforated support rod 7 is located at its bottom. The positioning structure 9 has a round hole and includes a fixed post 91 welded to the inner cavity of the round hole. Circular plates 92 are slidably connected to both the front and rear sides of the inner cavity of the round hole. Springs 93 are welded between the two circular plates 92 and the fixed post 91. A round head 97 is fixedly connected to the end of the abutment rod 96 opposite to the positioning groove 8. The round head 97 can provide padding protection between the contact surface of the worker and the contact rod 96, making the pressing process more comfortable for the worker. Two open positioning grooves 10 are welded to the rear side of the top of the support plate 3. A limit bolt 11 is slidably connected between the bottom of the open support rod 6 and the inner cavity of the open positioning groove 10.

[0016] Example 2: Figure 1-5This invention illustrates a guide plate for segmenting tandem metal castings according to an embodiment of the present invention. It includes a movable seat 2 mounted on the top of a cutting machine 1. A support plate 3 is bolted to the top of the movable seat 2. Guide plates 4 are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the top of the support plate 3. Reinforcing connecting strips 5 are bolted to the bottom of both guide plates 4. A perforated support rod 6 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the bottom of the reinforcing connecting strip 5. A support rod 7 is rotatably connected to the front side of the bottom of the reinforcing connecting strip 5. Two positioning grooves 8 are welded to the front side of the top of the support plate 3. A positioning structure 9 is provided in the inner cavity of the support rod 7. Round heads are welded to the opposite ends of the two circular pieces 92. The column 94 and the positioning groove 8 are connected to the front and rear sides of the round tube 95. The surface of the round-headed column 94 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the round tube 95. The inner cavity of the round tube 95 is slidably connected to the abutment rod 96. Two opening positioning grooves 10 are welded to the rear side of the top of the support plate 3. The bottom of the opening support rod 6 and the inner cavity of the opening positioning groove 10 are slidably connected to the limit bolt 11. The front side of the movable seat 2 is fixedly connected to the transparent baffle 12 by bolts. By setting the transparent baffle 12, the flying debris can be blocked during the cutting process of the cutting machine 1 on the metal castings in series. At the same time, it can facilitate the observation of the staff.

[0017] Working principle: When using this utility model, the user estimates the height of the top support of the movable seat 2 based on the specifications of the castings in series. Then, the user adjusts the tilt angle of the guide plate 4 according to the estimated appropriate height. At this time, the limit bolt 11 is pulled out, releasing the restriction on the position of the opening support rod 6. Then, the two abutment rods 96 are pressed to push the two round-headed columns 94 to slide relative to each other, thereby causing the round-headed columns 94 to disengage from the inner cavity of the round tube 95 and releasing the restriction on the position of the support rod 7. Then, the guide plate is guided... Plate 4 is deflected, and after being adjusted to the appropriate position, the support rod 7 is moved to deflect it. Then, under the action of spring 93, the round head column 94 slides back into the inner cavity of the round tube 95, thereby restricting the position of the support rod 7. At the same time, the limit bolt 11 is inserted back into the inner cavity of the opening support rod 6 and the opening positioning groove 10, thereby supporting the guide plate 4. This allows the cut individual castings to naturally slide to the discharge port, thus avoiding secondary cutting of the castings due to falling onto the surface of the movable seat 2.

[0018] In summary: When the series metal castings are being cut, the guide plate deflects the support rod 7 by moving it. Subsequently, under the action of the spring 93, the round-headed column 94 slides back into the inner cavity of the round tube 95, thereby restricting the position of the support rod 7. At the same time, the limiting bolt 11 is inserted back into the inner cavity of the opening support rod 6 and the opening positioning groove 10, so that the guide plate 4 is supported. This allows the cut individual castings to naturally slide to the discharge port, thus avoiding the castings from being cut again due to falling onto the surface of the movable seat 2.
