[0002] Casting equipment typically consists of upper and lower mold cavities. After casting, the equipment drives the upper mold cavity upward, simultaneously driving the casting out of the lower mold cavity, pulling the product out of the mold. The ejection mechanism then cooperates with the equipment to eject the casting from the mold and drop it onto the product receiving device, completing production. During this process, the moment of mold opening and closing is crucial. Traditional differential pressure casting equipment, due to non-parallel mold opening and instability, often causes scratches and strains on the casting parting surface, ultimately affecting product quality.

In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device that includes the element.

[0027] [Example 1]

[0028] The inventors of this solution have found that in the prior art, the parting surface of the casting is often scratched and damaged due to reasons such as non-parallel opening and closing of the mold, which ultimately affects the product quality. The embodiments of the present invention provide the following solutions:

[0029] As shown in Figures 1 to 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides a synchronous lifting and stabilization guide mechanism, which is installed on a movable template 1 and includes a multi-sided rack 2 that is vertically arranged at the four corners of the movable template 1. Two sets of opposite sides of the movable template 1 are respectively provided with a horizontal synchronous lifting mechanism 3 and a longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism 4. The horizontal synchronous lifting mechanism 3 includes a horizontal drive shaft 31 and a horizontal gear set 32 ​​respectively connected to the two ends of the horizontal drive shaft 31. The longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism 4 includes a longitudinal drive shaft 41 and a longitudinal gear set 42 respectively connected to the two ends of the longitudinal drive shaft 41. The gears of the horizontal gear set 32 ​​and the longitudinal gear set 42 are respectively engaged with the multi-sided rack 2.

[0030] It should be noted that when the movable template 1 is performing lifting motion, the transverse gear set 32 ​​and the longitudinal gear set 42 at the four corners of the movable template 1 are performing lifting motion on the multi-sided rack 2 at the same time, so that the four corners of the movable template 1 can be lifted and lowered synchronously through the transverse synchronous lifting mechanism 3 and the longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism 4, so that the overall force of the movable template 1 is evenly distributed, and the lifting and lowering are kept smooth.

[0031] Specifically, the top of the movable platen 1 is connected to an elevated frame 11 , the transverse gear sets 32 are respectively arranged at the four corners of the movable platen 1 , and the longitudinal gear sets 42 are respectively arranged at the four corners of the elevated frame 11 .

[0032] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs 111 are provided around the elevated frame 11, one side of the reinforcing rib 111 is connected to the elevated frame 11, and the bottom of the reinforcing rib 111 is connected to the movable template 1. It can be understood that the reinforcing rib 111 makes the connection between the elevated frame 11 and the movable template 1 more stable, avoiding safety hazards.

[0033] In other embodiments of the present invention, a reinforcement block may be installed around the elevated frame 11, one side of the reinforcement block being connected to the elevated frame 11, and the bottom of the reinforcement block being connected to the dynamic template 1. Those skilled in the art may flexibly install different types of reinforcement members according to actual needs to make the connection between the elevated frame 11 and the dynamic template 1 more stable.

[0034] The transverse gear set 32 ​​includes a transverse gear seat 321, which is equipped with a rotatable transverse gear 3211, and the transverse gear 3211 is meshed with the multi-faceted rack 2; the longitudinal gear set 42 includes a longitudinal gear seat 421, which is equipped with a rotatable longitudinal gear 4211, and the longitudinal gear 4211 is meshed with the multi-faceted rack 2.

[0035] It is understood that the transverse drive shaft 31 and the longitudinal drive shaft 41 are parallel to each other, and the torque is transmitted to the other side of the parallel surface through the transverse drive shaft 31 and the longitudinal drive shaft 41. The meshing torque between the transverse gear 3211 and the multi-faceted rack 2 and the meshing torque between the longitudinal gear 4211 and the multi-faceted rack 2 offset each other due to the asynchronous lifting of the two sides. It is understood that the multi-faceted rack 2 is a rack with teeth on both sides, and the transverse and longitudinal gears 3211 share the same rack for upward and downward movement. Two sets of gears are respectively configured at the four corners of the movable plate 1. In this way, the precision of the gear-rack meshing is evenly transmitted to the four corners of the movable plate 1 through the rigid interconnection of the transverse drive shaft 31 and the longitudinal drive shaft 41. At this time, the torque is mechanically balanced when the four corners of the movable plate 1 are raised and lowered.

[0036] In other embodiments of the present invention, the transverse gear seat 321 may be equipped with multiple, for example, two, three, or four, rotatable transverse gears 3211 meshing with the multi-faceted rack 2, thereby further improving accuracy. The longitudinal gear seat 421 may also be equipped with multiple, for example, two, three, or four, rotatable longitudinal gears 4211 meshing with the multi-faceted rack 2, thereby further improving accuracy. Those skilled in the art may flexibly install different numbers of transverse and longitudinal gears 3211 and 4211 according to actual needs.

[0037] Furthermore, the transverse gear seat 321 is provided with a rotatable first lubrication gear 3212 , and the longitudinal gear seat 421 is provided with a rotatable second lubrication gear 4212 . The first lubrication gear 3212 is meshed and connected with the transverse gear 3211 , and the second lubrication gear 4212 is meshed and connected with the longitudinal gear 4211 .

[0038] It should be noted that the lubricant can be applied to the first lubrication gear 3212 or the second lubrication gear 4212. During the lifting process of the movable template 1, the transverse gear 3211 drives the first lubrication gear 3212 to rotate, so that the lubricant is applied to the transverse gear 3211, and the longitudinal gear 4211 drives the second lubrication gear 4212 to rotate, so that the lubricant is applied to the longitudinal gear 4211.

[0039] Specifically, the top of the transverse gear seat 321 is connected to a first bracket 322 , and the first lubricating gear 3212 is mounted on the first bracket 322 . The top of the longitudinal gear seat 421 is connected to a second bracket 422 , and the second lubricating gear 4212 is mounted on the second bracket 422 .

[0040] In other embodiments of the present invention, a lubrication device can also be directly installed on the transverse gear seat 321 or the longitudinal gear seat 421, and lubricant can be automatically added to the transverse gear 3211 or the longitudinal gear 4212 through the lubrication device. Those skilled in the art can flexibly choose different lubricating methods to add lubricant to the transverse gear 3211 or the longitudinal gear 4212 according to actual needs.

[0041] Furthermore, the longitudinal gear seat 421 can be movably connected to the four corners of the elevated frame 11 , and a position adjustment mechanism 423 for adjusting the gap between the longitudinal gear 4211 and the multi-faceted rack 2 is provided on one side of the longitudinal gear seat 421 .

[0042] It should be noted that the position adjustment mechanism 423 pushes or stretches the longitudinal gear seat 421, which can make the longitudinal gear seat 421 move left and right, thereby adjusting the gap between the longitudinal gear 4212 and the multi-faceted rack 2, so that the gap can be adjusted according to the actual processing accuracy, avoiding the entire longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism 4 from being stuck during movement due to processing accuracy deviation, thereby improving the safety performance of the equipment.

[0043] [Example 2]

[0044] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a casting device, which is suitable for a synchronous lifting and stabilizing guide mechanism as provided in Example 1. The casting device includes four vertically arranged columns 5, and the columns 5 are arranged at the four corners of the casting device; the columns 5 are equipped with a lifting device 51, and the lifting ends of the lifting device 51 are connected to the four corners of the movable template 1.

[0045] It should be noted that the movable platen 1 is a component of the opening and closing mold, on which the upper mold is mounted. The lifting device 51 uses a cylinder. The mold opening force of the casting equipment is the most critical factor. The mold must have sufficient mold opening force to ensure that it can be opened smoothly during casting production. In order to improve the mold opening and closing force of the casting equipment, this device uses a cylinder installed on the equipment, which solves the shortcoming of insufficient mold opening force of the cylinder. This device is equipped with a cylinder drive at the four corners of the movable platen 1. The cylinder lifts the movable platen 1 in a positive manner. The four-corner drive can provide greater output force, while greatly reducing the height of the equipment, making it convenient for on-site layout and maintenance of the equipment.

[0046] It can be understood that by using the lifting device 51 to lift the movable template 1 at the four corners of the casting equipment at the same time, a great mold opening force can be provided. Combined with the horizontal synchronous lifting mechanism 3 and the longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism 4, the movable template 1 can be lifted and lowered synchronously at the four corners during the lifting process, maintaining smooth rising and falling, so that the clamping force is uniform when the mold is opened, avoiding product damage, improving the flatness of the casting parting surface, and increasing the product qualification rate.

[0047] In other embodiments of the present invention, the lifting device 51 may also be a hydraulic lift, etc., and those skilled in the art may flexibly select different types of lifting devices according to actual needs.

[0048] In the specific implementation, the lifting device 51 is used to simultaneously lift and close the movable template 1 at the four corners of the casting equipment, and then cooperates with the horizontal synchronous lifting mechanism 3 and the longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism 4 to make the four corners of the movable template 1 rise and fall synchronously during the lifting process, so that the clamping force is uniform when the mold is opened, avoiding product damage, improving the flatness of the casting parting surface, and increasing the product qualification rate.

[0049] In summary, embodiments 1-2 of the present invention provide a synchronous lifting and stabilizing guide mechanism and casting equipment, by respectively arranging a horizontal synchronous lifting mechanism and a longitudinal synchronous lifting mechanism on two sets of opposite sides of the movable template performing lifting movement, the torque is transmitted to the four corners of the movable template, ensuring that the movable template can rise and fall smoothly, thereby making the clamping force uniform when the mold is opened, avoiding the product from being stretched and increasing the product qualification rate.
