Definitions
- the invention relates to a casting mold for a crankcase of an internal combustion engine with an outer shape resting on a base of a base core, the base core having a base portion, a crankcase portion and a main bearing portion, and with water jacket cores and cylinder bore cores.
- Casting molds for crankcases are usually produced either with vertical or horizontal separation of the outer mold halves, with a crankcase core per cylinder, as well as other cores for oil pressure run, crankcase ventilation, water jacket, water pump etc.
- the large number of cores increases the effort involved in assembling the core, which makes assembly more difficult, in particular by anchoring the individual cores by means of core supports, core nails or adhesive.
- the casting tolerances are increased by the summation of the individual games between the casting cores and the effort for machining the crankcase after casting is increased.
- a casting mold of the type mentioned is known for example from DE-PS 34 19 979.
- This casting mold has a horizontal division of the outer shape consisting of lower box shape and upper box shape.
- the lower box shape has the function of a basic core, which also takes on the function of the otherwise existing crankcase core.
- a dividing line between the two mold halves runs horizontally in the outer region, namely in the plane of the base plate surface of the cylinder block. Then the dividing line follows the shape of the crank area.
- the known casting mold also has a cylinder bore core with a top plate and a water jacket core with corresponding core anchoring.
- the outer contour of the cylinder block has no undercuts, so that the two mold halves can be demolded in the axial direction of the cylinder block. Undercuts are also missing in the crankcase area of the cylinder block would be an obstacle to the bottom box shape to be demolded.
- the object of the invention is to propose a mold for crankcases, which is simple in construction, allows more freedom in design, helps to reduce the effort for core assembly and machining of the crankcase, while on the other hand the casting accuracy should be increased so that thin housing wall thicknesses low casting tolerances can be achieved.
- the base core has integrally formed cylinder bore cores, the base section, the crank chamber section and the main bearing section being combined into a single base core part to which the cylinder bore cores are connected, and in that the water jacket cores, the oil chamber cores and, if appropriate, a cover core the base core thus formed are stored.
- the division level of the base core, on which all other cores can be built, runs through the cylinder axes. Instead of external molded parts or shell parts, you can also kick horizontally shaped bales.
- core parts of the base core are present, which form the front and the rear face of the crankcase.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that all water jacket cores are combined in one piece to form a water space core.
- the water jacket cores thus form a single water space core, the division plane of which runs horizontally.
- the assembly is also considerably simplified in comparison to individually used water jacket cores.
- part of the water space core which consists of the individual water jacket cores, forms the water pump spiral.
- the water space core is mounted on the cylinder bore cores of the base core by means of bridges integrally formed on the water jacket cores, the water space core being supported against the buoyancy during the casting with the water penetrations on the outer shape, possibly on the cover core.
- the core of the water chamber therefore does not require any lateral core holes, as it is supported upwards by the water passages when it is poured upright, degassed and can also be cleaned.
- a further development of the invention provides that there is a number of oil chamber cores which exceeds the number of cylinders by one, the division plane of which lies normal to the axis of the crankshaft.
- four oil chamber cores are thus provided for the oil return from the cylinder or for the crankcase ventilation.
- the casting mold can be formed with a total of only nine cores. If the upper part of the outer mold is made in two pieces, for example by two side cores each half of the lid core, only eight cores are necessary for the construction of the casting mold.
- each oil space core penetrates the main bearing wall of the main bearing in two areas, so that two bulkheads are formed, which connect the main bearing to the side walls of the crankcase.
- the oil chamber cores which are pushed over the base core, expose the cylinders below the water jacket.
- the two bulkhead walls form a torsion and bending-resistant structure, which is lighter than a conventional ribbed main bearing wall due to the low accumulation of castings.
- Oil chamber cores and water chamber cores can be designed in such a way that the crankcase is cast with a uniformly thin wall, thus largely avoiding the accumulation of castings. Lateral core bearings that have to be machined or locked later are not required.
- the oil space cores may have extensions which laterally encompass the water jacket cores and form openings for the oil return.
- the core arrangement according to the invention in a casting mold makes it possible to reduce the wall thickness tolerances from + 1 / -0.5 mm to + 0.7 / -0.3 mm and to provide nominal wall thicknesses of only 3.5 mm.
- the special design of the oil chamber cores largely avoids material accumulation, especially in the area above the skin plague.
- Cast springs only occur in small numbers and can mostly be cut in connection with the necessary machining of the crankcase. The cleaning effort is very low due to the good accessibility.
- US Pat. No. 4,273,182 relates to a method for producing metal castings and, in particular, to a method for producing iron castings, in particular crankcases, in which the base core used for the molding process consists of a plurality of separate individual parts, such as base section, crankcase section and main bearing section, and thus from the subject matter of the invention deviates significantly.
- the multi-part core arrangement is designed to cope with the casting pressures in such a way that it receives a destructible band via an annular outer path of the overall arrangement.
- the tape is stretched over the core assembly by a tape sealing machine to form a positive form mechanical security.
- the tape is preferably located in the same plane as the outer surface of core prints when mounted.
- the core assembly braced by a tape is attached in any direction in a glued sand mold and molten metal is introduced into this mold.
- the molten metal heats the mold and core surfaces as well as the surrounding sand body to such an extent that the band evaporates after the molten metal is poured in.
- the demolding process disclosed in this patent also results from this.
- AT-PS 320 181 describes a fairly complex mold for casting the housing of water-cooled in-line engines without a cooling water space between molded cylinder liners with a complicated mold core which gives the rest of the cooling water space.
- the object of this AT-PS is based on the task of improving the casting mold in such a way that the casting of the motor housing in question is made possible and laborious reworking is avoided.
- the above object is achieved in that the motor housing is molded with vertical cylinder axes, but the standing mandrel for the cooling water chamber has lateral approaches, which are held in the outer molded parts, preferably glued.
- This known arrangement thus also deviates considerably from the subject of the invention because the mandrel has to be designed in several parts in a complex manner because of the mounting of the side lugs.
- FIG. 1 shows a section through the casting mold according to the invention along the line II in FIG. 2, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 each show a section along the line II-II or III-III in FIG. 1, wherein the side cores and the lid core have been removed
- FIG. 4 shows a top view of the casting mold
- FIGS. 5 and 6 sections through a crankcase formed with the casting mold according to FIGS. 1 to 4 in a representation corresponding to FIGS. 1 and 2 7 shows a top view
- FIG. 8 shows a bottom view of the crankcase.
- the casting mold for a three-cylinder internal combustion engine shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 has a base core 1 which is connected to the crankcase core 2 and the three cylinder bore cores 3 is made in one piece, the division plane E of the base core 1 coinciding with the cylinder axes.
- the base core 1 has core parts 4 and 5, which form the front 6 and the rear end face 7 of the crankcase 8.
- the main warehouse 9 and the warehouse lane 10 are also formed by the base core 1.
- the two outer molded and jacket parts are not shown.
- the lid core 11 can only be seen in FIG. 1. It is of course also possible within the scope of the invention to pull the outer molded parts up to the central plane E, so that the lid core is formed half by the two outer molded parts.
- the water jacket cores 12 are combined in one piece to form a water chamber core 13 which, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 2 to 4, is supported on the base core 1 by means of bridges 14 integrally formed on the water jacket cores 12 in the region of the cylinder bore cores 3.
- a part 15 of the water space core 13 forms the water point spiral 16, which is shown in FIG. 4.
- the water space core 13 does not require any further core anchoring, since it is supported against the ferrostatic buoyancy during casting via the water passages 17 on the cover core 11, or possibly on the outer molded parts.
- the base core 1 Also directly on the base core 1 are four oil chamber cores 18 (or five in four-cylinder internal combustion engines), the structure of which can be seen in detail, in particular from FIG. 3.
- the oil chamber cores 18 expose the cylinders 19 below the water jackets formed by the water chamber core 13 and penetrate the main bearing wall 20 in the areas 21, so that on both sides of the main bearing 9 two bulkheads 22 are formed, which form the main bearing 9 with the side walls 23 and 24 of the crankcase 8 connect.
- Each oil chamber core 18, the division plane 25 of which is normal to the axis 26 of the crankshaft, has two extensions 27 which laterally surround the water jacket core 12 in the region between the cylinder bore cores 3 and form openings 28 for the oil return from the cylinder head.
- the starter flange 29 is integrated in the rear face 7, the Oil pan flange 30 is approximately at the level of the axis 26 of the crankshaft.
- the water pump spiral 16 is cast directly onto the crankcase 8.
- a sheet metal tube 31 can be pressed in for the suction-side cooling water hose, which tube also partially covers the water pump impeller (not shown).
- the top view shows the eight openings 28 for the oil return from the cylinder head, as well as the six water passages 17 of the water jackets on the top of the crankcase.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Gießform für ein Kurbelgehäuse einer Reihenbrennkraftmaschine mit einer auf einem Sockel eines Basiskerns aufliegenden Außenform, wobei der Basiskern einen Sockelabschnitt, einen Kurbelraumabschnitt und einer Hauptlagerabschnitt aufweist, sowie mit Wassermantelkernen und Zylinderbohrungskernen.The invention relates to a casting mold for a crankcase of an internal combustion engine with an outer shape resting on a base of a base core, the base core having a base portion, a crankcase portion and a main bearing portion, and with water jacket cores and cylinder bore cores.
Üblicherweise werden Gießformen für Kurbelgehäuse entweder mit vertikaler oder horizontaler Tennung der Außenformhälften, mit einem Kurbelraumkern je Zylinder, sowie weiteren Kernen für Öldrucklauf, Kurbelraumentlüftung, Wassermantel, Wasserpumpe etc. hergestellt. Durch die große Anzahl der Kerne wird der Aufwand bei der Kernmontage erhöht, wobei diese insbesondere durch die Verankerung der einzelnen Kerne durch Kernstützen, Kernnägel od. Kleben die Montage erschwert wird. Zusätzlich werden durch die Summation der einzelnen Spiele zwischen den Gußkernen die Gußtoleranzen erhöht und der Aufwand für Bearbeitung des Kurbelgehäuses nach dem Gießen vergrößert.Casting molds for crankcases are usually produced either with vertical or horizontal separation of the outer mold halves, with a crankcase core per cylinder, as well as other cores for oil pressure run, crankcase ventilation, water jacket, water pump etc. The large number of cores increases the effort involved in assembling the core, which makes assembly more difficult, in particular by anchoring the individual cores by means of core supports, core nails or adhesive. In addition, the casting tolerances are increased by the summation of the individual games between the casting cores and the effort for machining the crankcase after casting is increased.
Eine Gießform der eingangs genannten Art is beispielsweise aus der DE-PS 34 19 979 bekannt. Diese Gießform weist eine horizontale Teilung der aus Unterkastenform und Oberkastenform bestehenden Außenform auf. Die Unterkastenform hat die Aufgabe eines Basiskerns, welcher zusätzlich die Funktion des sonst vorhandenen Kurbelraumkerns übernimmt. Eine Trennlinie zwischen den beiden Formhälften verläuft im Außenbereich horizontal, und zwar in der Ebene der Fußplattenfläche des Zylinderblocks. Daran nach innen anschließend folgt die Trennlinie der Form des Kurbelraumbereiches. Die bekannte Gießform weist weiters einen Zylinderbohrungskern mit Kopfplatte und einen Wassermantelkern mit entsprechender Kernverankerung auf. Die Außenkontur des Zylinderblocks weist keine Hinterschneidungen auf, sodaß die beiden Formhälften in axialer Richtung des Zylinderblocks entformt werden können. Auch im Kurbelraumbereich des Zylinderblocks fehlen Hinterschneidungen, welche ein Hindernis für die nach unten zu entformende Unterkastenform darstellen würden.A casting mold of the type mentioned is known for example from DE-PS 34 19 979. This casting mold has a horizontal division of the outer shape consisting of lower box shape and upper box shape. The lower box shape has the function of a basic core, which also takes on the function of the otherwise existing crankcase core. A dividing line between the two mold halves runs horizontally in the outer region, namely in the plane of the base plate surface of the cylinder block. Then the dividing line follows the shape of the crank area. The known casting mold also has a cylinder bore core with a top plate and a water jacket core with corresponding core anchoring. The outer contour of the cylinder block has no undercuts, so that the two mold halves can be demolded in the axial direction of the cylinder block. Undercuts are also missing in the crankcase area of the cylinder block would be an obstacle to the bottom box shape to be demolded.
Durch den Wegfall der Hinterschneidungen in vertikaler Richtung sind jedoch die Möglichkeiten der Formgebung stark eingeschränkt, außerdem sind die Probleme im Zusammenhang mit der Kernverankerung nicht glöst.By eliminating the undercuts in the vertical direction, however, the possibilities for shaping are severely limited, and the problems associated with core anchoring are not solved.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Gießform für Kurbelgehäuse vorzugschlagen, die einfach aufgebaut ist, mehr Freiheit in der Formgebung erlaubt, den Aufwand für die Kernmontage und die Bearbeitung des Kurbelgehäuses zu reduzieren hilft, wobei anderseits die Gußgenauigkeit erhöht werden soll, sodaß dünne Gehäusewandstärken mit geringen Gußtoleranzen erzielt werden können.The object of the invention is to propose a mold for crankcases, which is simple in construction, allows more freedom in design, helps to reduce the effort for core assembly and machining of the crankcase, while on the other hand the casting accuracy should be increased so that thin housing wall thicknesses low casting tolerances can be achieved.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Basiskern einstückig angeformte Zylinderbohrungskerne aufweist, wobei der Sockelabschnitt, der Kurbelraumabschnitt und der Hauptlagerabschnitt zu einem einzigen Basiskernteil zusammengefaßt sind, an den sich die Zylinderbohrungskerne anschließen, sowie daß die Wassermantelkerne, die Ölraumkerne sowie gegebenenfalls ein Deckelkern an dem so ausgebildeten Basiskern gelagert sind. Durch die Zusammenfassung der einzelnen Kurbelraumkerne und Zylinderbohrungskerne zu einem einzigen Basiskern, welcher dann den Kurbelraum, die Zylinderbohrungen und die Lagergasse formt, wird die Kernanzahl und dementsprechend auch die Zahl der Kerntrennflächen verringert. Gußtoleranzen, die insbesondere von der Anzahl der Kerntrennflächen abhängen, werden somit nicht kumuliert, sodaß geringere Nennwandstärken bei kleineren Wandstärketoleranzen realisiert werden können. Da die Wasserraumkerne und die Ölraumkerne, sowie ggf. ein Deckelkern und allfällige Mantelkerne direkt am Basiskern gelagert sind, entfallen sonst übliche Probleme im Zusammenhang mit der Kernverankerung. Es werden dabei sowohl bei der Herstellung der Kerne als auch bei der Kernmontage und der Bearbeitung des Kurbelgehäuses, welches vertikal, also stehend, gegossen wird, Kosten gespart und eine höhere Gußgenauigkeit erreicht.This object is achieved in that the base core has integrally formed cylinder bore cores, the base section, the crank chamber section and the main bearing section being combined into a single base core part to which the cylinder bore cores are connected, and in that the water jacket cores, the oil chamber cores and, if appropriate, a cover core the base core thus formed are stored. By combining the individual crankcase cores and cylinder bore cores into a single base core, which then forms the crankcase, the cylinder bores and the bearing lane, the number of cores and, accordingly, the number of core separating surfaces is reduced. Casting tolerances, which depend in particular on the number of core partitions, are therefore not cumulated, so that smaller nominal wall thicknesses can be achieved with smaller wall thickness tolerances. Since the water space cores and the oil space cores, as well as, if applicable, a cover core and any jacket cores are stored directly on the base core, the usual problems associated with core anchoring are eliminated. It saves costs both in the manufacture of the cores and in the core assembly and the machining of the crankcase, which is cast vertically, that is to say standing, and a higher casting accuracy is achieved.
Die Teilungsebene des Basiskerns, auf dem alle übrigen Kerne aufgebaut werden können, verläuft durch die Zylinderachsen. An die Stelle von äußeren Formteilen, bzw. Mantelteilen, können auch horizontal geformte Ballen treten.The division level of the base core, on which all other cores can be built, runs through the cylinder axes. Instead of external molded parts or shell parts, you can also kick horizontally shaped bales.
In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß Kernteile des Basiskerns vorhanden sind, welche die vordere und die hintere Stirnseite des Kurbelgehäuses formen.In a further development of the invention it is provided that core parts of the base core are present, which form the front and the rear face of the crankcase.
Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß alle Wassermantelkerne einstückig zu einem Wasserraumkern zusammengefaßt sind. Die Wassermantelkerne bilden somit einen einzigen Wasserraumkern, dessen Teilungsebene horizontal verläuft. Neben der einfachen Herstellung dieses Wasserraumkernes wird auch die Montage im Vergleich zu einzeln einzusetzenden Wassermantelkernen wesentlich vereinfacht.An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that all water jacket cores are combined in one piece to form a water space core. The water jacket cores thus form a single water space core, the division plane of which runs horizontally. In addition to the simple manufacture of this water space core, the assembly is also considerably simplified in comparison to individually used water jacket cores.
Ein Teil des Wasserraumkernes, der aus den einzelnen Wassermantelkernen besteht, bildet in einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die Wasserpumpenspirale.In a further embodiment of the invention, part of the water space core, which consists of the individual water jacket cores, forms the water pump spiral.
Erfindungsgemäß wird der Wasserraumkern mittels einstückig an den Wassermantelkernen angeformten Brücken auf den Zylinderbohrungskernen des Basiskerns gelagert, wobei sich der Wasserraumkern gegen den Auftrieb beim Gießen mit den Wasserdurchtritten an der Außenform, ggf. am Deckelkern, abstützt. Der Wasserraumkern benötigt daher keine seitlichen Kernlöcher, da er sich beim stehenden Gießen durch die Wasserdurchtritte nach oben abstützt, entgast und auch gereingt werden kann.According to the invention, the water space core is mounted on the cylinder bore cores of the base core by means of bridges integrally formed on the water jacket cores, the water space core being supported against the buoyancy during the casting with the water penetrations on the outer shape, possibly on the cover core. The core of the water chamber therefore does not require any lateral core holes, as it is supported upwards by the water passages when it is poured upright, degassed and can also be cleaned.
Eine Weiterbildung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß eine die Zylinderzahl um eins überschreitende Anzahl von Ölraumkernen vorhanden ist, deren Teilungsbene normal zur Achse der Kurbelwelle liegt. Es sind somit bei einer Dreizylinder-Brennkraftmaschine vier Ölraumkerne für den Ölrücklauf aus dem Zylinder bzw. für die Kurbelraumentlüftung vorgesehen. Zusammen mit dem Basiskern, dem Wasserraumkern sowie zwei Mantelkernen und einem Deckelkern kann die Gießform mit insgesamt nur neun Kernen gebildet werden. Falls der Oberteil der Außenform zweistückig ausgeführt wird, beispielsweise durch zwei den Deckelkern je zur Hälfte umfassende Seitenkerne, sind sogar nur acht Kerne für den Aufbau der Gießform nötig.A further development of the invention provides that there is a number of oil chamber cores which exceeds the number of cylinders by one, the division plane of which lies normal to the axis of the crankshaft. In a three-cylinder internal combustion engine, four oil chamber cores are thus provided for the oil return from the cylinder or for the crankcase ventilation. Together with the base core, the water space core as well as two jacket cores and a lid core, the casting mold can be formed with a total of only nine cores. If the upper part of the outer mold is made in two pieces, for example by two side cores each half of the lid core, only eight cores are necessary for the construction of the casting mold.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ergibt sich erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß jeder Ölraumkern die Hauptlagerwand der Hauptlager in zwei Bereichen durchdringt, sodaß zwei Schottwände entstehen, welche das Hauptlager mit den Seitenwänden des Kurbelgehäuses verbinden. Zur Gewichtseinsparung stellen die Ölraumkerne, welche über den Basiskern geschoben werden, die Zylinder unterhalb des Wassermantels frei. Durch die beiden Schottwände wird eine torsions- und biegesteife Struktur gebildet, welche aufgrund geringerer Gußanhäufungen leichter ist als eine konventionelle verrippte Hauptlagerwand.Another advantage according to the invention results from the fact that each oil space core penetrates the main bearing wall of the main bearing in two areas, so that two bulkheads are formed, which connect the main bearing to the side walls of the crankcase. To save weight, the oil chamber cores, which are pushed over the base core, expose the cylinders below the water jacket. The two bulkhead walls form a torsion and bending-resistant structure, which is lighter than a conventional ribbed main bearing wall due to the low accumulation of castings.
Ölraumkerne und Wasserraumkern können so ausgeführt werden, daß das Kurbelgehäuse mit gleichmäßig dünner Wandstärke gegossen wird, Gußanhäufungen also weitgehend vermeiden werden. Seitliche Kernlager, die später bearbeitet bzw. verschlossen werden müssen, werden nicht benötigt.Oil chamber cores and water chamber cores can be designed in such a way that the crankcase is cast with a uniformly thin wall, thus largely avoiding the accumulation of castings. Lateral core bearings that have to be machined or locked later are not required.
Schließlich ist es in einer weiteren Ausführung nach der Erfindung möglich, daß die Ölraumkerne Fortsätze aufweisen, welche die Wassermantelkerne seitlich umfassen und Durchbrüche für den Ölrücklauf formen. Es ist durch die erfindungsgemäße Kernanordnung in einer Gießform möglich, die Wandstärketoleranzen von +1/-0,5 mm auf +0,7/-0,3 mm zu reduzieren und Nennwandstärken von nur 3,5 mm vorzusehen. Die spezielle Konstruktion der Ölraumkerne vermeidet weitgehend Materialanhäufungen, vor allem im Bereich oberhalb der Hautplager.Finally, in a further embodiment according to the invention it is possible for the oil space cores to have extensions which laterally encompass the water jacket cores and form openings for the oil return. The core arrangement according to the invention in a casting mold makes it possible to reduce the wall thickness tolerances from + 1 / -0.5 mm to + 0.7 / -0.3 mm and to provide nominal wall thicknesses of only 3.5 mm. The special design of the oil chamber cores largely avoids material accumulation, especially in the area above the skin plague.
Gußfedern treten nur in geringer Anzahl auf und können zum größten Teil im Zusammenhang mit der notwendigen Bearbeitung des Kurbelgehäuses geschnitten werden. Der Putzaufwand ist durch die gute Zugänglichkeit sehr gering.Cast springs only occur in small numbers and can mostly be cut in connection with the necessary machining of the crankcase. The cleaning effort is very low due to the good accessibility.
Der Vollständigkeit halber wird zum Stand der Technik noch folgendes ausgeführt.For the sake of completeness, the following is stated regarding the prior art.
Die US-PS 4 273 182 betrifft ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von Metallgußstücken und insbesondere ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von Eisengußstücken, insbesondere Kurbelgehäusen, bei welchen der zum Formvorgang verwendete Basiskern aus mehreren gesonderten Einzelteilen, wie Sockelabschnitt, Kurbelraumabschnitt und Hauptlagerabschnitt, besteht und somit vom Erfindungsgegenstand erheblich abweicht. Die mehrteilige Kernanordnung ist zur Bewältigung der Gießdrücke so gestaltet, daß sie ein zerstörbares Band über einen ringförmigen äußeren Pfad der Gesamtanordnung aufnimmt. Das Band wird über die Kernanordnung durch eine Bandverschlußmaschine gespannt, um eine formschlüs sige mechanische Sicherung zu bilden. Das Band ist vorzugsweise in gleicher Ebene mit der Außenfläche von Kernabdrücken gelegen, wenn es montiert ist. Die durch ein Band verspannte Kernanordnung wird in beliebiger Richtung in einer verklebten Sandform angebracht und geschmolzenes Metall wird in diese Form eingeführt. Das geschmolzene Metall erwärmt die Form und Kernoberflächen sowie den umgebenden Sandkörper in einem solchen Ausmaß, daß das Band nach Eingießen des geschmolzenen Metalls verdampft. Hieraus ergibt sich auch der in dieser Patentschrift geoffenbarte Entformvorgang.US Pat. No. 4,273,182 relates to a method for producing metal castings and, in particular, to a method for producing iron castings, in particular crankcases, in which the base core used for the molding process consists of a plurality of separate individual parts, such as base section, crankcase section and main bearing section, and thus from the subject matter of the invention deviates significantly. The multi-part core arrangement is designed to cope with the casting pressures in such a way that it receives a destructible band via an annular outer path of the overall arrangement. The tape is stretched over the core assembly by a tape sealing machine to form a positive form mechanical security. The tape is preferably located in the same plane as the outer surface of core prints when mounted. The core assembly braced by a tape is attached in any direction in a glued sand mold and molten metal is introduced into this mold. The molten metal heats the mold and core surfaces as well as the surrounding sand body to such an extent that the band evaporates after the molten metal is poured in. The demolding process disclosed in this patent also results from this.
In der AT-PS 320 181 ist eine ziemlich aufwendige Form zum Gießen des Gehäuses wassergekühlter Reihenmotoren ohne Kühlwasserraum zwischen mitgegossenen Zylinderbüchsen mit einem komplizierten, den übrigen Kühlwasserraum ergebenden Formkern beschrieben. Dem Gegenstand dieser AT-PS liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Gießform derart zu verbessern, daß einwandfreies Gießen der betreffenden Motorgehäuse ermöglicht und umständliche Nachbearbeitung vermieden wird. In diesem bekannten Fall wird die obige Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß das Motorgehäuse zwar mit lotrechten Zylinderachsen abgeformt ist, der stehende Formkern für den Kühlwasserraum aber seitliche Ansätze aufweist, die in den Außenformteilen gehalten, vorzugsweise eingeklebt sind. Diese bekannte Anordnung weicht somit vom Erfindungsgegenstand ebenfalls beträchtlich ab, weil der Formkern wegen der Lagerung der seitlichen Ansätze in aufwendiger Weise mehrteilig gestaltet werden muß.AT-PS 320 181 describes a fairly complex mold for casting the housing of water-cooled in-line engines without a cooling water space between molded cylinder liners with a complicated mold core which gives the rest of the cooling water space. The object of this AT-PS is based on the task of improving the casting mold in such a way that the casting of the motor housing in question is made possible and laborious reworking is avoided. In this known case, the above object is achieved in that the motor housing is molded with vertical cylinder axes, but the standing mandrel for the cooling water chamber has lateral approaches, which are held in the outer molded parts, preferably glued. This known arrangement thus also deviates considerably from the subject of the invention because the mandrel has to be designed in several parts in a complex manner because of the mounting of the side lugs.
Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert. Es zeigen Fig. 1 einen Schnitt durch die Gießform nach der Erfindung entlang der Linie I-I in Fig. 2, Fig. 2 bzw. Fig. 3 jeweils einen Schnitt entlang der Linie II-II bzw.

Die in den Fig. 1 bis 4 dargestellte Gießform für eine Dreizylinder-Brennkraftmaschine weist einen Basiskern 1 auf, welcher mit dem Kurbelraumkern 2 und den drei Zylinderbohrungskernen 3 einstückig ausgeführt ist, wobei die Teilungsebene E des Basiskerns 1 mit den Zylinderachsen zusammenfällt. Außerdem weist der Basiskern 1 Kernteile 4 und 5 auf, welche die vordere 6 bzw. die hintere Stirnseite 7 des Kurbelgehäuses 8 formen. Die Hauptlager 9 und die Lagergasse 10 werden ebenfalls vom Basiskern 1 gebildet. Die beiden äußeren Form- bzw. Mantelteile sind aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit nicht dargestellt.

Es ist natürlich im Rahmen der Erfindung auch möglich, die äußeren Formteile bis zur Mittelebene E hochzuziehen, sodaß der Deckelkern je zur Hälfte von den beiden äußeren Formteilen gebildet wird.The casting mold for a three-cylinder internal combustion engine shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 has a
Die Wassermantelkerne 12 sind einstückig zu einem Wasserraumkern 13 zusammengefaßt, welcher sich, wie insbesondere aus den Fig. 2 bis 4 ersichtlich, mittels einstückig an den Wassermantelkernen 12 angeformten Brücken 14 im Bereich der Zylinderbohrungskerne 3 am Basiskern 1 abstützt. Ein Teil 15 des Wasserraumkernes 13 bildet dabei die Wasserpunpenspirale 16, welche in Fig. 4 dargestellt ist. Der Wasserraumkern 13 benötigt keine weiteren Kernverankerungen, da er sich gegen den ferrostatischen Auftrieb beim Gießen über die Wasserdurchtritte 17 am Deckelkern 11, bzw. ggf. an den äußeren Formteilen, abstützt.The
Ebenfalls direkt auf den Basiskern 1 sind vier Ölraumkerne 18 (bzw. fünf bei Vierzylinder-Brennkraftmaschinen) gelagert, deren Aufbau im Detail, insbesondere aus Fig. 3, ersichtlich ist.Also directly on the
Zur Gewichtseinsparung stellen die Ölraumkerne 18 die Zylinder 19 unterhalb der durch den Wasserraumkern 13 gebildeten Wassermäntel frei und durchdringen die Hauptlagerwand 20 in den Bereichen 21, sodaß beiderseits des Hauptlagers 9 zwei Schottwände 22 entstehen, welche das Hauptlager 9 mit den Seitenwänden 23 und 24 des Kurbelgehäuses 8 verbinden.To save weight, the
Jeder Ölraumkern 18, dessen Teilungsebene 25 normal zur Achse 26 der Kurbelwelle liegt, weist zwei Fortsätze 27 auf, welche den Wassermantelkern 12 im Bereich zwischen den Zylinderbohrungskernen 3 seitlich umfassen und Durchbrüche 28 für den Ölrücklauf aus dem Zylinderkopf bilden. Der Anlasserflansch 29 ist in der hinteren Stirnseite 7 integriert, der Ölwannenflansch 30 befindet sich ungefähr auf der Höhe der Achse 26 der Kurbelwelle.Each
In den Darstellungen nach Fig. 5 und 6 sind die durch den Wasserraumkern gebildeten Wassermäntel 32 sowie die von den Ölraumkernen erzeugten Räume 33 samt Durchbrüchen 28 zum nicht dargestellten Zylinderkopf dargelegt sowie in Fig. 6 und insbesondere Fig. 8 die aus zwei Schottwänden 22 bestehenden Hauptlagerwände 20, welche jedes Hauptlager 9 mit den Seitenwänden 23, 24 des Kurbelgehäuses 8 verbinden.5 and 6, the
Wie aus Fig. 7 ersichtlich, ist die Wasserpumpenspirale 16 direkt am Kurbelgehäuse 8 angegossen. Für den saugseitigen Kühlwasserschlauch kann ein Blechrohr 31 eingepreßt werden, welches auch teilweise die Abdeckung des nicht dargestellten Wasserpumpenlaufrades übernimmt. In der Draufsicht sind die acht Durchbrüche 28 für den Ölrücklauf aus dem Zylinderkopf, sowie die sechs Wasserdurchtritte 17 der Wassermäntel an der Oberseite des Kurbelgehäuses sichtbar.As can be seen from FIG. 7, the
