Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gas-permeable mold for producing casting and core molds from hardenable molding sand, as well as a method for its production and an advantageous use of such tools.
  • Molds made from molding sand are widely used in the manufacture of cast metal parts. These are solid or bowl-shaped shapes that can only be used once.
  • fine-grained molding sand is provided with hardenable binder additives, placed in a mold via a sand inlet opening and cured there.
  • the curing takes place thermally - high energy expenditure - or more recently alternatively also by means of reaction gases which are pressed under pressure through the molding sand in the molding tool.
  • the gas is pressed into the sand at the sand inlet opening and has to emerge from the mold through bores, nozzles or other channels and openings mechanically introduced into the mold wall.
  • DE 30 02 939 describes a molding tool with a wall into which ribs and slots of different dimensions are mechanically introduced. The reaction gas entering the molding sand through an inlet is drawn off through the slots.
  • the slots are sanding.
  • the production is very expensive and does not allow the production of a really close-knit network of slots and bores.
  • the reaction gas also flows through the sand only unevenly in this embodiment of a mold.
  • reaction gas is consumed in excess, that is, in much larger amounts than required by the stoichiometry of the desired reaction.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to produce a mold with a wall which is homogeneously gas-permeable in the micro range.
  • the methods and techniques described at the outset are thus ruled out.
  • the object is to create, by means of a suitable combination of techniques known per se for the production of porous materials, a mold wall which has a suitable microporosity in its region adjacent to the molding sand and which overall has sufficient mechanical stability.
  • the molding tools produced in this way are intended to permit the production of casting molds from molding sand in large numbers, in particular also as a non-massive, shell-shaped casting mold.
  • the surface of the molding tool exposed to the molding sand must be particularly wear-resistant. Pore clogging by molding sand should no longer be a major cause of failure of the molding tool. Pores that may be blocked by molding sand have to regenerate with little effort, i. H. get exposed again.
  • the object of creating a gas-permeable molding tool is achieved according to the invention in that the tool is made of heteroporous, open-pored material, the wall of the mold has a first, adjacent to the molding sand fine-pore layer area of 0.2 - 2 mm thickness, from 75 - 95% theoretical material density and pore diameter ⁇ 50 microns, on which a second, massive area in shape a large-pore supporting skeleton with ⁇ 80% theoretical material density and an average pore diameter> 100 ⁇ m.
  • the molding tools include both casting and core forms, i. H. both molds for the production of solid and hollow cast parts.
  • metallic and / or ceramic materials and / or plastics come into consideration as materials for the mold wall.
  • Up to 60,000 sand molds can be produced in a single mold of known designs.
  • the sand is filled into the mold at high speed and under high pressure.
  • the wear requirements for the surface of the mold coming into contact with the molding sand are correspondingly high. This fact must be taken into account by the selection of the material for the fine-pored layer of the molding tool.
  • Wear-resistant steel grades as well as wear-resistant ceramics as well as metallic and non-metallic hard materials e.g. As silicon nitride, boron nitride, titanium carbide, titanium nitride, silicon carbide.
  • the heteroporous wall of the mold can be formed either by viscous, foamed and then solidified material or the wall is formed by means of powdered starting material to be solidified.
  • the layer of the mold wall that comes into contact with the molding sand can be formed by isostatically pressing powder onto a gage mold corresponding to the casting.
  • the powder, mixed with a volatile solvent, can be applied as a paste or sprayed onto the gauge.
  • Galvanic processes and gas deposition processes (PVD processes) for forming such layers have also proven successful.
  • the layer can be placed on the gauge shape in the form of a flexible metallic or ceramic film.
  • the flexibility of such foils is given by volatile, highly flexible thermoplastic components in solid form during subsequent heat treatment. Otherwise, the foils consist of powdery metals, hard materials or ceramics.
  • the gauge form covered with the layer material is then either foamed or, after embedding in a corresponding outer form, backfilled with coarse-grained powder material and preferably isostatically pressed.
  • the finished composite body is produced by thermal or chemical curing, firing or sintering of the compacted composite materials.
  • the open-pore support structure For the manufacture of the open-pore support structure, it has proven useful to first coat sand, glass or ceramic grains with a thin plastic layer by immersing them in appropriate dispersions or solutions. The granules pretreated in this way can be poured into a mold and / or pressed and then chemically or thermally cured.
  • Molding tools according to the present invention have a number of advantages.
  • the molding sand enclosed in the molding tool can be pressurized through the heteroporous wall when using the molding tools according to the invention.
  • the gas pressure and time it is possible to effect curing of the enclosed molding sand only in an edge zone to a desired depth.
  • An even finer dosage can be achieved by soaking the mold with a suitable liquid.
  • a defined capillary pressure builds up in the fine pores of the tool wall, which releases the reaction gas only when this pressure is exceeded.
  • the core of the enclosed sand remains free-flowing if the gas is dosed stoichiometrically and can be removed and reused after the edge zone has hardened through the sand inlet opening.
  • An essential advantage of molding tools according to the present invention lies in the possibility of their surface facing the molding sand adjust the desired mold, but the back surface with a few flat surfaces, e.g. B. cuboid or cylindrical. Due to the gas loading of the molding sand through the porous wall of the molding tool, a fine gas layer regularly forms between the wall of the molding tool and the molding sand. This prevents the molding sand from sticking to the mold wall during the sand curing process. The sand mold easily detaches from the mold after the hardening process. Special measures against the gluing of molding sand and molding tool (spraying the molding tool wall, inserting a film), as are required in known tools and processes for the production of casting molds, can therefore generally be avoided.
  • Figure 1 shows the design of a half-shell of a mold, in section, and devices for producing the mold according to a preferred method.
  • 1 shows the model plate -1- with the gauge shape for the half-shell of a molding tool.
  • the area of the model plate which gives off the sand inlet opening of the molding tool -1a- during later use is particularly marked.
  • a sealing plate -2- lies on the model plate or is screwed or clamped to it. It has a central recess according to the geometric shape of the one to be manufactured Molding tool.
  • the fine-pore layer area -3- of the mold adjoining the molding sand has a constant layer thickness over the entire surface area, with the exception of a narrow area at the separating surface of the two half-shells.
  • the open-pore support skeleton -4- is materially adjacent to the fine-pore layer area of the molding tool.
  • the external geometric shape of the mold is specified by a mold box -5- or mold frame screwed onto the model plate. Manufacturing variants are possible where the molding box is not completely filled with the material, but where an air space -6- remains between the supporting skeleton and the top of the molding box when filling in a flowable or spreadable material.
  • a model plate with the gauge shape of one half of the cast part to be manufactured is first produced from a metallic and / or ceramic material or from plastic by customary methods. In the majority of cases, it is advisable for core and casting molds to produce the mold from two half-shells. After previously applying a release agent, a sealing plate, preferably made of steel or ceramic, is applied to the model plate and screwed to the model plate. The central recess in the sealing plate is to be dimensioned such that in the area of the separating surface of the two half-shells of the mold between the gauge surface (model plate) and the sealing plate there remains a gap at least as thick as the fine-pored layer area of the mold.
  • the fine-pored layer of the molding tool is first applied to the gauge surface of the model plate - if necessary after applying a release agent on the gauge surface.
  • a paste is spread or sprayed on.
  • the paste consists of fine-grained, corrosion-resistant ceramic powder with an average grain size of 10 - 100 ⁇ m, which, to increase the surface wear resistance of the mold, has about 10 - 20% by volume titanium carbide powder (measured by the proportion of ceramic powder) same grain size are added.
  • the powder is processed into a paste with a volatile or thermally evaporable binder. If appropriate, non-volatile metallic and / or non-metallic components and / or pore formers are added to the binder.
  • the fine-pore layer is advantageously applied in several layers until the desired total layer thickness is reached.
  • the layer application according to FIG. 1 also takes place over the edge of the sealing plate.
  • the fine-pored layer applied in this way is dried or cured.
  • a molding box or molding frame according to FIG. 1 is screwed onto the model plate or sealing plate and the material for forming the wall area is introduced into the molding box with an open-pore support skeleton.
  • It is a coarse-grained ceramic powder to which volatile pore-forming materials have been added, such as are used, for example, in the production of porous ceramic filters.
  • the ceramic powder is mixed with volatile binders to form a paste, which is then brushed into the molding box and cured there.
  • the mold is then separated from the model plate and sintered or fired in high-temperature furnaces. In this way, wear-resistant, mountable mold half-shells with flat parting surfaces are obtained.
  • the mold surface does not require any surface treatment.
  • the area of the sand inlet opening of the mold is finally sealed with a pore filler, so that no reaction gas can pass through this area of the mold wall during later operation and the molding sand cannot harden in this area.
  • the testing of molds produced in this way with a wall structure according to the invention has shown that a pressure difference of 1-2 bar can be built up at the boundary between coarse and fine-pored layers.
  • the fluctuation range of the absolute gas pressure in front of the limit in the coarse-pored part of the wall in different sections of the mold wall or in different molds manufactured according to the same process is between 0.1 - 0.2 bar and is therefore largely independent of how thick the large-pored support skeleton of the mold wall is actually.
  • the said jump of the Gas pressure at the boundary between the coarse and fine-pored layer occurs practically solely due to the structure of the fine-pored layer.
  • This pressure jump can still be stabilized by impregnating the molding tool with a suitable sealing liquid, as a result of which a very homogeneous capillary pressure builds up in the pores of the fine-pored layer over the entire surface area of the molding tool.
  • the production of a casting mold from hardenable molding sand using a molding tool according to the present invention then proceeds as follows. After the molding sand has been filled in, the molding tool is pressurized with reaction gas from the outside at a pressure of> 2 bar. This presses the liquid out of the capillaries of the fine-pored layer of the molding tool and reaches the molding sand or an edge zone of the sand mold with precisely metered gas pressure.
  • the core area of the filled molding sand remains free-flowing. It can be removed and reused via the sand inlet after curing is complete. When the gas pressure drops below 2 bar, the barrier liquid is drawn back into the pores of the fine-pored layer by wicking. This means short production times for the individual sand molds as well as low susceptibility to faults and reject rates.
  • a jig mold or model plate is produced for a half-shell of a molding tool. Similarly to Example 1, a sealing plate is clamped onto the model plate.
  • the mold wall material for the fine-pored layer is placed on the gauge shape in the form of a flexible metallic foil.
  • the separately manufactured metallic foil consists of a homogeneous mixture of corrosion-resistant steel particles with a grain size distribution of 10 - 100 ⁇ m, possibly enriched with a few volume percent wear-resistant titanium carbide particles of comparable grain size, possibly supplemented by powdered fillers and pore-forming materials as well as a thermoplastic that evaporates at higher temperatures Plastic.
