Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange forming mold technology, specifically a casting mold for installing flanges. Background Technology
[0002] A flange is a disc-shaped part commonly used for connecting shafts. Some equipment and pipelines that require high tightness in their connections rely on flanges to ensure the tightness of the connection after fixation. Compared with ordinary welding methods, using flanges not only increases the fixing area of the connection end, but also allows objects to be quickly connected on-site with bolts, greatly shortening the installation time. When maintenance is needed later, flanges can be quickly disassembled, improving the flexibility of connecting pipelines and equipment.
[0003] Flanges are widely used in industry, and therefore there are many varieties depending on their location and specific needs. When connecting metal objects with complex end faces, specially cast metal flanges are generally used for adaptation.
[0004] When casting flanges, two half mold frames are usually joined together to form a casting space at the joint. Then, molten metal is poured into the casting space through the casting gate to cool and solidify. However, in the existing technology, in order to prevent leakage, the casting space formed between the mold frames is tightly fitted around the edges. When the molten metal enters the casting gate, it will block the only external channel, which will easily lead to poor venting during the casting process. As a result, voids will form when the flange is cast due to gas obstruction, reducing the yield of flange casting. Utility Model Content

The upper mold core has a second pin hole on its left and right sides, and the upper mold frame has a second locking hole on its left and right sides that corresponds to the position of the second pin hole and is connected to it by a pin.
[0010] Preferably, the liquid guide seat includes a retaining seat embedded in the lower mold frame and connected to it by a locking pin. The retaining seat tapers along its edge near the top to form a stepped insertion platform on its surface. The insertion platform is inserted into the bottom of the casting gate. The insertion platform and the retaining seat together have a liquid receiving groove integrally connected to the casting gate. The lower mold core has a casting liquid channel that communicates with the casting gate through the liquid receiving groove.
[0011] Preferably, the lower mold core is provided with protruding limiting bosses at its four corners, and the upper mold core is recessed at its four corners to form limiting grooves that fit into the limiting bosses.

[0015] 2. The casting mold for this mounting flange is designed so that, after the molten metal solidifies, some residue inevitably remains in the tubular inlet. By setting a detachable casting port, if the residual molten metal in the casting port is difficult to remove after solidification after the mounting flange is cast, the casting port can be directly replaced, thus avoiding affecting the casting operation of the next set of mounting flanges and improving the demolding efficiency of the mounting flange.

[0018] 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.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-11 A casting mold for mounting a flange, comprising: mounting flange 1 and casting mold; The mounting flange 1 includes a plate 101. The plate 101 protrudes irregularly around its center point to form a stepped interlocking platform 102. The center of the interlocking platform 102 is integrally formed with a shaft interface 103 that passes through it. The irregular edge of the interlocking platform 102 forms a first bolt hole 104 and a second bolt hole 105 that pass through the interlocking platform 102. The four corners of the plate 101 form a third bolt hole 106 that passes through it. A positioning groove 108 is formed on the edge of the plate 101 near one side. An icon 107 is formed on the plate 101 as an identifier. The bottom of the plate 101 is recessed with the center point as the center to form an insertion groove 109 corresponding to the covering surface of the interlocking platform 102. The casting mold includes a lower mold base 2 and an upper mold base 3 with relative opening and closing displacement. A lower mold core 8 is embedded in the center of the top of the lower mold base 2. A liquid guide seat 9 that cooperates with the lower mold core 8 is embedded in front of the lower mold core 8 at the top of the lower mold base 2. Multiple sets of lower hole column molds 19 are provided through the lower mold core 8 from bottom to top. An upper mold core 6 that cooperates with the lower mold core 8 is embedded in the center of the bottom of the upper mold base 3. A casting port 5 that passes through the upper mold core 6 is embedded in front of the upper mold core 6 at the upper mold base 3, and the bottom end of the casting port 5 cooperates with the liquid guide seat 9. Multiple sets of upper hole column molds 24 are provided through the upper mold core 6 from top to bottom. Multiple sets of residual liquid grooves 12 are provided on the lower mold core 8 around the edge of the pre-formed mounting flange 1. Each set of residual liquid grooves 12 is provided with an exhaust groove 13 for communicating with the outside of the lower mold core 8 on the side away from the pre-formed mounting flange 1. Multiple sets of liquid guiding grooves 14 are provided at the bottom of the upper mold core 6 to cooperate with the residual liquid grooves 12. Positioning rods 15 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the upper mold frame 3, and positioning holes 16 are provided at the four corners of the top of the lower mold frame 2 for docking with the positioning rods 15 at the bottom of the upper mold frame 3.
[0020] It should be noted that after the molten metal fills the forming space, an additional portion of the molten metal near the residual liquid tank 12 will flow into the residual liquid tank 12. This ensures that no void defects will be formed at the corners when the mounting flange 1 is cast. After the mounting flange 1 is formed and demolded, the solidified metal ingot in the residual liquid tank 12 will be demolded together with the mounting flange 1. The connection between the metal ingot and the mounting flange 1 corresponds to the thickness of the liquid guiding tank 14, which facilitates the cutting of the metal ingot.
[0021] The lower mold frame 2 is provided with an ejector pin mechanism 4 at its bottom. The ejector pin mechanism 4 has a second pressing groove 18 on both its left and right sides. The upper mold frame 3 has a first pressing groove 17 on its left and right sides that is parallel to the second pressing groove 18 on the ejector pin mechanism 4.
[0022] That is, by utilizing the cooperation between the second mold groove 18 and the first mold groove 17, during casting, they slide into the corresponding track set on the casting platform, further increasing the stability of the lower mold frame 2 and the upper mold frame 3 after they are closed.
[0023] The lower mold core 8 has a lower mold cavity 10 for installing the bottom of the flange 1, and the positions where the top of the lower hole column mold 19 penetrates the lower mold core 8 are all located within the range of the lower mold cavity 10. The upper mold core 6 has an upper mold cavity 7 for cooperating with the lower mold cavity 10, and the positions where the bottom of the upper hole column mold 24 penetrates the upper mold core 6 are all located within the range of the upper mold cavity 7.
[0024] The lower mold core 8 has first pin holes 20 on its left and right sides, and the upper mold frame 3 has first locking holes 21 on its left and right sides that correspond to the positions of the first pin holes 20 and are connected to them by pins. The upper mold core 6 has second pin holes 26 on its left and right sides, and the upper mold frame 3 has second locking holes 27 on its left and right sides, which correspond to the positions of the second pin holes 26 and are connected to them by pins.
[0025] That is, if a jamming occurs when the flange 1 is cast and demolded, the upper mold core 6 and the lower mold core 8 can be quickly removed to facilitate the removal of the upper hole column mold 24 and the lower hole column mold 19, thereby improving the demolding effect. At the same time, the next set of upper mold core 6 and lower mold core 8 can be replaced to continue casting, which improves the casting efficiency of the flange 1.
[0026] The liquid guide seat 9 includes a retaining seat 91 embedded in the lower mold frame 2 and connected to it by a locking pin. The retaining seat 91 tapers along its edge near the top to form a stepped insertion platform 92 on its surface. The insertion platform 92 is inserted into the bottom of the casting port 5. The insertion platform 92 and the retaining seat 91 together have a liquid receiving groove 93 integrally connected to the casting port 5. The lower mold core 8 has a casting liquid channel 11 that is connected to the casting port 5 through the liquid receiving groove 93.
[0027] That is, the liquid guide seat 9 and the casting port 5 are a pair of mutually inserting components. When the molten metal flows through the liquid guide seat 9 and solidifies and is difficult to remove, the liquid guide seat 9 can also be removed and replaced.
[0028] The lower mold core 8 has protruding limiting bosses 22 at its four corners, and the upper mold core 6 has recessed limiting grooves 23 at its four corners that fit into the limiting bosses 22.
[0029] The venting groove 13 is Z-shaped, with one end of the Z connected to the interior of the residual liquid groove 12 and the other end connected to the exterior of the lower mold core 8. The depth of the venting groove 13 is 0.01-0.08mm.
[0030] That is, the depth of the venting groove 13 is set within a certain range and is set in a Z-shape to form a barrier. After the air flows upward, the more viscous molten metal will be blocked in the residual liquid groove 12, thereby preventing the molten metal from overflowing to the outside of the mold.
[0031] Among them, the casting port 5 includes an insert nest 51 that is embedded and passes through the upper mold frame 3. The top of the insert nest 51 is expanded outward to form a liquid inlet 52 that is connected to the casting equipment. A fixed hoop groove 53 is provided in the neck of the insert nest 51 connected to the liquid inlet 52. A disassembly sleeve 54 is provided on the outer edge of the fixed hoop groove 53. The outer peripheral wall of the disassembly sleeve 54 has two through pin holes 55. The outer wall in front of the upper mold frame 3 has a locking hole 25 corresponding to the position of the pin holes 55 and connected to the locking pin thereon. The inner wall of the fixed groove 53 forms a rib between the two pin holes 55, and the end of the locking pin that passes through the pin holes 55 protrudes into the fixed groove 53 on both sides of the rib.
[0032] Normally, the molten metal in the mold needs to spread into the casting port 5 and remain there for a certain period of time to ensure that the internal casting space is full before it can solidify. At this time, the molten metal will inevitably remain in the casting port 5 after solidification. Since it is a closed tubular structure, the molten metal inside is difficult to clean after solidification and adhesion, and it will also affect the casting quality of the subsequent flange 1. Therefore, the casting port 5 is designed to be easy to replace, so that the molten metal residue in the casting port 5 can be cleaned slowly without affecting the subsequent flange 1 casting operation, thereby improving the efficiency of the flange 1 casting operation.
[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
