Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a feeder insert for use in casting metals in vertically divisible molds, with a first mold element and a second mold element, which delimit a feeder cavity for receiving liquid metal, the first mold element having a passage opening for the liquid metal and for Attachment to a mold model or a pivoting mold plate is set up.

  • the casting space within the casting mold provided for receiving the liquid metal has a passage to the feeder cavity, into which a portion of the liquid metal filled into the casting mold then enters during the casting process.
  • the liquid metal that gets into the feeder should be able to flow back into the casting mold during the solidification process (which is associated with a contraction of the cast metal) in order to compensate for the shrinkage of the casting up to the solidus temperature.
  • At least part of the feeder insert usually consists of an insulating and/or exothermic material, an exothermic material being ignited when liquid metal enters the riser insert due to the prevailing temperatures. From this moment on, an exothermic reaction automatically takes place within the material of the riser insert, through which thermal energy is supplied to the metal in the riser over a certain period of time and the metal is kept in the liquid state in the riser cavity and in the transition area to the casting space of the mold.
  • feeder inserts are used whose longitudinal feeder axis is aligned approximately perpendicular to the pivotable mold plate, so that the feeder longitudinal axis of a feeder insert arranged in this way runs approximately horizontally during the casting process.
  • a feeder insert has a mold element to be brought into contact with a mold model or a pivotable mold plate, which is equipped with a passage opening for the liquid metal.
  • a feeder insert for use in casting metals in vertically divisible molds which has a first mold element and a second mold element which delimit the feeder cavity for receiving the liquid metal.

  • the one from the DE 202011103718 U1 known feeder insert has a compressible attachment area on its first mold element, which is irreversibly deformed when the mold material is compressed.
  • the force pressing the attachment area onto the mold plate can be relatively small, so that under certain circumstances mold material can penetrate into the area between the attachment area and the mold model.
  • a feeder insert for use in casting metals in horizontally divisible molds which comprises a first mold element and a second mold element.
  • the first mold element forms a feeder foot to be attached laterally to a mold model, the first mold element being accommodated in the mold material of the lower mold half below the parting plane between the upper mold half and the lower mold half.
  • the first shaped element has a casing made of an insulating and/or exothermic feeder material.

  • the invention provides a feeder insert according to claim 1 as well as a use according to claim 13 and a method for casting metal according to claim 14.
  • Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.
  • the invention solves the underlying problem in a feeder insert of the type mentioned in that the first mold element and the second mold element are telescopically displaceable relative to one another and are set up for positioning by means of a centering mandrel that can be positioned along a centering axis, the centering mandrel being limited by the first and second mold elements
  • Feeder cavity is designed so that when the centering axis is arranged horizontally, a predominant volume fraction of the feeder cavity can be positioned above the centering axis.
  • the invention thus relates to a feeder insert suitable for use in casting metals in vertically divisible molds manufactured with vertical molding systems such as Disamatic molding machines from DISA Industries A/S.
  • the feeder insert comprises at least a first mold element and a second mold element, which delimit the feeder cavity for receiving liquid metal.
  • the first mold element has a passage opening for the liquid metal, which usually serves to attach to a mold model or a pivotable mold plate. When the metal is poured into the mold, the liquid metal enters the feeder insert via the passage opening; it then flows back through the passage opening from the feeder cavity into the casting mold during the shrinking process (until the casting has completely solidified).
  • the centering axis of the feeder insert which typically coincides with the center axis of the passage opening, is arranged offset downwards from the central region of the first mold element, particularly when the feeder insert is used in a vertical molding system (i.e. when the centering axis has assumed a horizontal position).

  • the first mold element and the second mold element of a feeder insert according to the invention are designed to be telescopically displaceable relative to one another in sections, so that one of the mold elements, preferably the second mold element, evades the pressure acting primarily on the second mold element when the mold material that ultimately almost completely surrounds or encloses the feeder insert is compressed can.

  • the invention is based on the knowledge that with a telescopic feeder insert, its first and second mold elements are telescopically displaced relative to one another at least over a section, through the frictional force between the mold elements a sufficiently large contact pressure can be generated between the attachment area of the first mold element and (for example) the mold model, with which a secure contact of the first mold element on the mold model is ensured when compacting the molding material.
  • the displaceability of the second mold element relative to the first mold element also ensures that, in contrast to a feeder insert with a compressible attachment area on the first mold element, the second mold element can easily move in the direction of the mold model if the compression pressure acts excessively on the feeder insert.
  • the preferred design of the feeder cavity with its volume fraction positioned above the centering axis when the feeder insert is in use to accommodate the liquid metal ensures that during the solidification process and the associated shrinkage process of the casting to be produced, a sufficient amount of liquid metal is present within the riser. There is a cavity that can flow towards the mold.
