Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of casting equipment technology, and in particular to a temporary storage tank for molten aluminum. Background Technology

[0002] In the automated casting production of aluminum pistons, the molten aluminum in the melting furnace must first be transferred to an insulated container, and then transported to the die-casting or casting machine for production. Existing insulated containers typically employ a simple refractory lining and an outer steel shell structure, which has significant drawbacks: uneven temperature and rapid cooling. Traditional insulated containers rely solely on material insulation, providing passive heat preservation. During transport and standby, the molten aluminum continuously loses heat, especially at the surface and near the container walls, resulting in uneven temperature distribution within the container. Excessively low or uneven temperatures directly affect the piston's casting quality, leading to defects such as cold shuts and incomplete pouring.

[0003] In most piston casting processes, small-scale casting is usually done with a spoon. Repeated contact increases the possibility of more impurities being mixed in and the likelihood of oxidation is also greater. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an aluminum molten material storage tank, an aluminum molten material storage tank that can be self-heated.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a temporary storage tank for molten aluminum, comprising a tank body, a lid, and a heating component.

[0006] The barrel is a barrel-shaped structure with an open top. The barrel includes an inner barrel and an outer barrel. The top front of the outer barrel has a first notch. The top front of the inner barrel has a drain nozzle corresponding to the first notch. The outer side wall of the outer barrel has a hanging ear assembly, which includes symmetrical rotating hanging ears on the top sides of the outer barrel and inclined hanging ears on the back of the outer barrel near the bottom. The lid is hinged to the opening of the outer barrel. The heating assembly is located between the inner barrel and the outer barrel.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the closed surface of the lid and the barrel is provided with an embedding platform, and the embedding platform is at least partially embedded in the inner diameter of the inner barrel.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the heating component includes a top heating plate, a middle heating plate, a bottom heating plate, a bottom surface heating plate and a top surface heating plate, wherein the top heating plate, the middle heating plate and the bottom heating plate are all annular tubular structures.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the bottom heating element is a plurality of concentrically arranged circular pieces, and the bottom surface of the inner wall of the outer barrel is provided with a plurality of support strips evenly spaced from each other, and the bottom heating element is embedded between the support strips.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the top heating element has a second notch at the position corresponding to the first notch.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a top heating element is provided between the cover and the embedding platform.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, a molten aluminum storage tank includes a tank body 2, a cover 1, and a heating component 4.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the barrel body 2 is a barrel-shaped structure with an open top, and the barrel body 2 includes an inner barrel 21 and an outer barrel 22.

[0037] The outer barrel 22 has a first notch 222 on the top front, the inner barrel has a drain nozzle 211 corresponding to the first notch 222 on the top front, and the outer barrel 22 has a hanging ear assembly 3 on the outer side wall.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the ear-hanging assembly 3 includes symmetrical rotating ear-hanging ears 31 located on the top sides of the outer tub 22 and inclined ear-hanging ears 32 located on the back side of the outer tub 22 near the bottom.

[0039] In this embodiment, rotating mounting blocks 33 are provided at the top of the left and right side walls of the outer tub 22. Rotating lugs 31 are embedded in the rotating mounting blocks 33 and rotated. Bearings can also be provided between the rotating lugs 31 and the rotating mounting blocks 33 for smoother rotation. The rotating lugs 31 and the rotating mounting blocks 33 can also be connected by a through shaft. A fixed shaft passing through the outer tub 22 is provided on the side of the rotating lugs 31 near the rotating mounting blocks 33, and a bearing is added between the rotating lugs 31 and the rotating mounting blocks 33.

[0040] The lid 1 is hinged to the opening of the outer barrel 22, and the closed surface of the lid 1 and the barrel 2 is provided with an embedding platform 11, which is at least partially embedded in the inner diameter of the inner barrel 21.

[0041] The heating component 4 is located between the inner tub 21 and the outer tub 22.

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, the heating assembly 4 includes a top heating element 42, a middle heating element 43, a bottom heating element 44, a bottom heating element 45, and a top heating element 41. The top heating element 42, the middle heating element 43, and the bottom heating element 44 are all annular tubular structures.

[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, the bottom heating element 45 is a plurality of concentric circular pieces. The bottom surface of the inner wall of the outer barrel 22 is provided with a plurality of support strips 212 that are evenly spaced apart. The bottom heating element 45 is embedded between the support strips 212.

[0044] In this embodiment, the support bar 212 is a ring support structure mainly to support the inner barrel 21 and prevent the bottom heating plate 45 from being directly subjected to force. However, the bottom heating plate 45 requires a wiring hole in this solution, and the wiring hole is opened on the support bar 212.

[0045] The top heating element 42 has a second notch 411 at the position corresponding to the first notch 222.

[0046] A top heating element 41 is provided between the cover 1 and the embedded platform 11.

[0049] In this design, the inner barrel 21 serves as a container and provides heat conduction and insulation. The inner barrel 21 is replaceable and can be loaded, unloaded, and replaced by means of hoisting or other methods.

[0050] In this design, all heating elements can be resistance wire heating elements and PTC heating elements, or a combination of both. The outer barrel 22 has an integrated power interface 221 on its back side wall, which ensures the transmission and power supply functions.

[0051] In this design, all heating elements are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the outer barrel 22, and a heat insulation layer is provided between all heating elements and the outer barrel 22. When the heating elements are in contact with each other, a frame or insulating heat insulation sheet needs to be added.

[0052] In this design, a thermocouple can be added to the inner tank 21 to monitor the temperature of the molten aluminum, but in this case, the inner tank 21 is a structure that cannot be disassembled at will.

[0053] In this solution, the wire connection, integrated power interface 221, and external controller are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail.

[0054] 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.
