Definitions

  • the invention relates to an apparatus for producing a cylinder crankcase in V-type with an outer mold with moldings for forming the cylinder crankcase, sleeves, which are retractable to form cylinders in the mold, at least one core which is used to form a part of a crank chamber in the Mold is arranged, and which is removable after casting and at least one feeder core, which is arranged in the interior of the mold.
  • the DE 10 2009 058 730 A1 discloses a method of casting an engine block in which a feeder core is placed inside the mold.
  • the feeder core is arranged in the interior of the cylinder and has a connection to the inner wall of the cylinder.
  • the at least one feeder core is arranged between opposite sleeves of the two cylinder banks on the side of the crank space facing the sleeves, a feeder core is required per cylinder pair, which can additionally be placed in a fixed position in the casting mold and by a molded part of the Mold can be kept.
  • a plurality of feeder cores are arranged in the casting mold, so that over the entire length of the cylinder crankcase a make-up to prevent blowholes is made possible.
  • the feeder cores are arranged in the longitudinal direction between the cavities of the mold, which form the walls in which the main bearing points of the cylinder crankcase are formed.
  • refilling can take place centrally in the cylinder crankcase in a region in which no special demands are placed on the strength and the microstructure. Cylinder head webs and main bearings of the main bearings can be cooled accordingly fast, so that high strengths are achieved in these areas.
  • each feed core has at least two inlet openings, which open on both sides of the feed core into the cavity of the casting mold, which forms the walls in which the main bearing points of the cylinder crankcase are formed.
  • the feeder cores viewed in the transverse direction are to be arranged on an axis of symmetry between the sleeves. This symmetry ensures uniform solidification with symmetrical solidification isotherms. Overall, reduced by the reduced solidification time, the cycle times in the production.
  • a cavity for generating a wall closing the crank chamber is formed in the mold, so that the feeder core bounds this wall.
  • the upper surface of the feeder core thus serves simultaneously as a molded part of the cylinder crankcase.
  • the feeder core is a sand core, so that subsequent removal of the core can be easily performed.
  • the mold parts forming the main bearing points of the mold and the sleeves are actively coolable formed. Accordingly, high strength values are achieved in this critical area.
  • the device shown has an outer mold 10, which consists of a lower part 12, two displaceable side parts 14, 16 and a lowerable upper part 18 are mounted in the sleeves 20, which after placing the upper part 18 to form cylinders in the mold 10th be retracted.
  • the resulting casting is formed in a cavity 23 of the mold 10 and is a cylinder crankcase 24 with V-shaped cylinder banks 26, which in the exemplary embodiment consist of three longitudinally arranged cylinders.
  • the Supply of the casting mold with the light metal melt takes place via gates 28, which are formed at the base of the casting mold 10.
  • a crank chamber 30 is partially formed by the base 12 of the mold 10 and partially by internal cores 32, which are mostly made of sand. These are particularly required in order to be able to form corresponding cavities of the crank chamber 30 on the side facing the upper part 18 of walls 34, in which main bearing points 36 are formed for a crankshaft, not shown.
  • the walls 34 in which the main bearings 36 are formed are also formed by the filling of cavities defined by the base 12 and the cores 32.
  • a cavity 38 is formed in the mold to form a wall 40, via which the crank chamber 30 of the cylinder crankcase 24 between the cylinder banks 26 is closed.
  • the filling over the gates 28 has the disadvantage that the solidification of the melt extends from the cylinder head side to the crank chamber 30. Normally, sufficient strength does not arise in the area of the main bearing points 36.
  • a feeder core 44 which is made of sand.
  • this feeder core 44 is located between the wall 40 and the main bearings 36 in the longitudinal direction between the cavities to form the walls 34.
  • the feeder core 44 has two inlet openings 46 and an inner feeder 48.
  • the inlet openings 46 open into a region 50 of the walls 34 extending from the main bearing points 36 in the direction of Cylinder or toward the wall 40 extends.
  • a root portion of the feeder core 44 rests on the base 12 of the mold 10, while a head portion defines the cavity 38 to form part of the wall 40.
  • the feeder core 44 of the present embodiment extends between the two internal walls 34 so that it can melt both internal walls 34. Accordingly, for example, for 8-cylinder cylinder crankcase two successive feed cores 44 should be used to provide all the internal walls 34 in the casting process with melt can.
  • feeder cores 44 can be used to supply the outer walls in the area of the main bearing points 36.
  • the melt in the remaining cavities 23, 38 begins to solidify from outside to inside.
  • solidification times are desired, especially in the highly loaded areas of the main bearings 36 and the cylinder lands between the cylinders, which are still shortened by 12 cooling water channels 54 are formed in both the sleeves 20 and in the lower mold part, so that heat from the melt can be removed via the cooling water.
  • the scope of protection is not limited to the embodiment described.
  • the number of feeder cores used depends on the number of cylinders of the crankcase produced.
  • the feeder cores are suitable for various casting methods and casting molds.
