Abstract
- a) a pressure is injected into the supply (2) in the funnel-shaped inlet (4) for initiating the filling and fluidization of the mould material,
- b) a pressure is established above the supply for insertion of mould material through the inlet, and
- c) the fluidization pressure and the insertion pressure are controlled independently,
Description
- This invention relates to a method of producing mould parts by means of an automatic mould part producing apparatus of the type comprising a mould chamber having pressure plates movable towards each other, to which plates mould plates are fastened, and in which the mould chamber can receive mould material through a mainly funnel-shaped inlet from a supply above said inlet, said material supplied by pressure.
- When using the known methods of producing mould parts, it has been a problem for a long time both to achieve the high degree of compression of the mould material in the entire mould part, which is necessary for the stability of the mould, and to have a sufficiently high production speed. Particularly in case of complicated mould parts with projecting ribs and the like, turbulent flows are generated in certain parts of the mould cavity, if the mould material is introduced under a high pressure. The turbulent flows give rise to uneven filling and consequently uneven density in the mould part. When introducing the mould material under a relatively low pressure, the cycle time will increase unacceptably, and sufficient density cannot be achieved everywhere in the mould part.
- It is an object of this invention to show a method of producing mould parts, whereby,using a low cycle time, mould parts with a stable high density are obtained.
- According to the invention, this object is achieved by a method of the kind mentioned in the introduction, which is characteristic in
- a) that a pressure is injected inside the supply in the funnel-shaped inlet for initiating the filling and fluidization of the mould material,
- b) that a pressure is established above the supply for insertion of mould material through the inlet, and
- ci that the fluidization pressure and the insertion pressure are controlled independently.
- It is possible to obtain a low cycle time by this combination because of the introduction of the pressure in the funnel-inlet itself, as this allows operation with a relatively high filling pressure from the beginning with no danger of forming bridges in the funnel. Fluidization of the funnel area ensures a laminar flow during the last part of the filling, as a low friction is provided between the components of the mould material. The independent control of the fluidization pressure and the filling pressure offers the possibility of adjusting the degree of pressures which have proven through tests to be the most optimal ones when producing mould parts of a given form.
- In case of the hitherto known apparatus, both the insertion pressure and the fluidization pressure have been controlled independent of the momentary pressure values above the supply and within the funnel-shaped inlet. Whereas no attempts have been made to procure a continuous adjustment of dependence of the realized values in the relevant areas and therefore, there has been no possibility of making the pressure development dependent on the exact form of the mould parts produced.
- In a possible embodiment of the process according to the invention, the mould chamber can be connected to a vaccum source at certain points at the "shadow areas".
- In this way the following is achieved, partly a reduction of the cycle time and partly a better filling of the critical "shadow areas" in the mould cavity, i.e. areas behind the projecting ribs and the like.
- In German published specification No. 1.941.736 a method is described according to which the mould chamber is subjected to a vacuum during the insertion of sand, but the vacuum is provided solely to increase the effective pressure difference between the mould cavity and the space above the supply by connecting the mould cavity with the vacuum source through a relatively wide slot in the bottom of the mould chamber.In the German published specification there is no description of providing vacuum through apertures spaced in the surface of the mould chamber.
- By engaging a pressure source instead of the vacuum source when stripping,as suggested according to the invention, effective cleaning is ensured of the filters or nozzles through which the vacuum is produced at the passage apertures, and the same passage apertures and supply lines for inserting vacuum and pressure to the mould chamber can be used. Furthermore, the pressure injection appropriate for the stripping is particularly favourable as regards the aforementioned critical "shadow areas".
- In the following the invention will be further explained with reference made to the drawing, the only figure of which shows schematically an apparatus for use when exerting the method.
- In the apparatus shown on the drawing, a container 1 is used for storage of the mould sand 2, which, as the name indicates, normally is sand, but it is possible also to use other suitable mould materials. Through air channels 3 at the side walls of the container, pressure air is injected into the space above the sand 2. In the embodiment shown, a fluidization of the sand is provided at the funnel-shaped inlet 4 of the container, air being supplied under high pressure through the supply ducts 5, and by this, air pockets and a fluidization are provided immediately above the inlet 4, as indicated by the arrows and the dotted lines.
- In the shown embodiment, the pressurized air is supplied from a pressure air container 6 which is provided with pressurized air from a compressor through a valve 7.
- Under the container 1, a
mould chamber 8 is provided which is limited in the lateral direction bymould plates 9 and 10. The mould plates are supported bypressure plates way valve 15 can be connected to avacuum source 16 and apressure source 17 respectively. - In the position shown on the drawing, mould insertion has just been initiated, and the sand 2 is forced from the funnel-shaped inlet 4 under high pressure into the
mould chamber 8 by pressure injection through a porous plate at the bottom of the funnel, such as it is indicated by the arrows. The insertion of the sand and the compression in themould chamber 8 is furthered by providing vacuum from thevacuum source 16. During the last part of the insertion of sand a controlled pressure is furthermore established over the sand, and the lower pressure injection serves to fluidization of the funnel area. While the insertion of sand is still in operation themould plates 9 and 10 are led towards each other, activated by a working cylinder, not shown, which bypistons 13 drive thepressure plates - The movement of the pressure plates is terminated immediately after insertion of the correct quantity of sand into the mould chamber, and the mould is then finalized.
- Removal of the
mould plate 10 is made by moving the piston (not shown) and thepressure plate 12 from the mould in the programmed way, simultaneously supplying pressurized air from thepressure air source 17 through the passage apertures 14, so that a positive pressure against the mould limiting surfaces is provided. Themould 8 is removed from the mould chamber ny means of the shownpiston 13 and thepressure plate 11 and pushed forward to be put together with the previously produced moulds in a manner known per se. Finally, the mould plate 9 is stripped by moving thepiston 13 and thepressure plate 11 away from the mould last produced in a programmed way, by simultaneously injecting pressure air from thesource 17 through the apertures 14. Thepiston 13 and thepressure plate 11 turn back to their starting positions in the mould chamber. After this, thepressure plate 12 is moved back to starting position by means of the piston, not shown. Now, a new mould insertion can begin.
