Description

本発明は、ダイカスト鋳造に係る技術に関する。   The present invention relates to a technique related to die casting.

コールドチャンバー方式によるダイカスト鋳造用の金型は、固定型と、この固定型に組み合わされる可動型とを有する。固定型には、鋳込み口部材が設けられている。鋳込み口部材とは、鋳造機のスリーブが連結され、溶融金属(以下、溶湯)を金型内に導き入れる部分である。鋳造後、この鋳込み口部材にはビスケットと呼ばれるゲートの始点が残る。ビスケットは、高速で前進する射出プランジャーの停止時の衝撃を緩和する緩衝部としての役割と、サイクルごとの溶湯の供給量の違いを調整する調整部としての役割とを有し、例えば20mm程度の厚みを必要とする。   The die for die casting by the cold chamber method has a fixed mold and a movable mold combined with the fixed mold. The fixed mold is provided with a casting port member. The casting port member is a portion where a sleeve of a casting machine is connected and molten metal (hereinafter, molten metal) is introduced into a mold. After casting, a starting point of a gate called a biscuit remains in the casting port member. The biscuits have a role as a buffer part that reduces the impact when stopping the injection plunger that moves forward at high speed, and a role as an adjustment part that adjusts the difference in the amount of molten metal supplied for each cycle, for example, about 20 mm. Requires a thickness of.

近年、例えば肉厚が1.0mm以下といった薄肉の成形品が所望されている。このような薄肉の成形品の鋳造では、溶湯の充填時に製品部分の固化が極めて短時間のうちに進むが、一方でビスケットは厚肉のために固化しにくい。ここで、ビスケットの固化を待っていたのでは薄肉の製品部分は固化が進み過ぎ、収縮して金型に食い付いてしまう。   In recent years, for example, a thin molded product having a thickness of 1.0 mm or less has been desired. In casting such a thin molded product, the solidification of the product portion proceeds in a very short time when the molten metal is filled, while the biscuits are difficult to solidify due to the thick wall. Here, when waiting for the biscuit to solidify, the thin product portion is excessively solidified and contracts and bites into the mold.

そこで本発明者は、ビスケットが成形される領域を取り囲むように鋳込み口部材の外周面に沿って冷却水が流れる冷却回路を設け、ビスケットの冷却を図ることを考えた。これによりビスケットの固化を促進し、製品部分が金型に食い付く前に鋳造品を金型から取り出すことができる。   Therefore, the present inventor has considered providing a cooling circuit through which cooling water flows along the outer peripheral surface of the casting port member so as to surround the region where the biscuit is formed, thereby cooling the biscuit. Thereby, solidification of the biscuits is promoted, and the cast product can be taken out from the mold before the product portion bites into the mold.

ここで特許文献1には、冷却装置を備えたダイカスト装置を開示している。このダイカスト装置は、金型と、射出装置と、冷却液路を有する冷却装置とを備える。冷却装置は、射出装置のスリーブの外面に装着される。これによりスリーブの受湯部の冷却が図られている。
特開2005−34867号公報
Here, Patent Document 1 discloses a die casting apparatus including a cooling device. This die casting apparatus includes a mold, an injection apparatus, and a cooling apparatus having a cooling liquid path. The cooling device is attached to the outer surface of the sleeve of the injection device. Thereby, the hot water receiving portion of the sleeve is cooled.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-34867

近年ではさらに薄肉の成形品が所望され、例えば肉厚が0.6mm以下といった超薄肉の成形品が望まれている。上述のようにビスケットが成形される領域を取り囲むように冷却回路を配置すると、金型への溶湯注入時に溶湯の温度がある程度低下するが、この溶湯温度の低下は上記のような超薄肉成形品を鋳造する場合にその鋳造性に極めて重大な影響を与える。すなわち溶湯の温度が大きく低下してしまうと、それに伴い溶湯の流動性が損なわれ、成形品を所望の形状に鋳造することができなくなる。
また、特許文献1のようにスリーブを冷却すると、スリーブのなかで溶湯が冷やされて溶湯の流動性が低下してしまう。
In recent years, a thinner molded product is desired. For example, an ultra-thin molded product having a thickness of 0.6 mm or less is desired. When the cooling circuit is arranged so as to surround the region where the biscuits are molded as described above, the temperature of the molten metal is reduced to some extent when the molten metal is poured into the mold. When casting a product, the castability is extremely seriously affected. That is, if the temperature of the molten metal is greatly lowered, the fluidity of the molten metal is impaired accordingly, and the molded product cannot be cast into a desired shape.
Moreover, when a sleeve is cooled like patent document 1, a molten metal will be cooled in a sleeve and the fluidity | liquidity of a molten metal will fall.

As shown in FIG. 2, an example of the molded product 2 is a housing base that is a part of the housing of the portable computer. However, the mold and the molded product to which the present invention can be applied are not limited to this, and can be applied to a mold for casting various molded products including a housing cover, for example. The molded product 2 is made of a magnesium alloy, for example, and is an ultra-thin molded product having a basic thickness of 0.6 mm or less. The “basic wall thickness” refers to the thickness most widely adopted in the molded product.

図1に示すように、金型1は、固定型4と可動型5とを有する。固定型4は、図示しない固定盤に固定される。固定型4は、固定型板11、キャビティ部材12、および鋳込み口部材13を備える。固定型板11は、固定盤に固定されるとともに、可動型5に対向する面にキャビティ部材12が取り付けられる凹部(図示しない)を有する。キャビティ部材12は、この凹部に取り付けられるとともに、可動型5に対向する。キャビティ部材12は、例えば製品の表側に対応した型面を有する。   As shown in FIG. 1, the mold 1 has a fixed mold 4 and a movable mold 5.

鋳込み口部材13は、鋳造機の射出プランジャー17が挿入される貫通孔13aを備え、筒状に形成されている。固定型板11は、鋳込み口部材13が取り付けられる開口部11aを有する。またキャビティ部材12は、鋳込み口部材13を避ける切欠き部12aを有する。鋳込み口部材13は、固定型板11の開口部11aとキャビティ部材12の切欠き部12aに沿って取り付けられ、図5に示すように、固定型4の下面(すなわち可動型5側の面)から上面(すなわち固定盤側の面)に亘って設けられている。   The casting port member 13 includes a through hole 13a into which an injection plunger 17 of a casting machine is inserted, and is formed in a cylindrical shape. The stationary template 11 has an opening 11a to which the casting port member 13 is attached. The cavity member 12 has a notch 12 a that avoids the casting port member 13. The casting port member 13 is attached along the opening 11a of the fixed mold plate 11 and the notch 12a of the cavity member 12, and as shown in FIG. 5, the lower surface of the fixed mold 4 (that is, the surface on the movable mold 5 side).

図5に示すように、鋳込み口部材13は、可動型5に当接する第1の端部14と、この第1の端部14の反対側に設けられ、固定盤側に露出する第2の端部である連結端部15とを備える。この連結端部15は、鋳造機のスリーブ18が連結される(図6参照)。   As shown in FIG. 5, the casting port member 13 is provided with a first end 14 in contact with the movable mold 5 and a second end that is provided on the opposite side of the first end 14 and is exposed to the fixed platen side. And a connecting end 15 that is an end. The connecting end 15 is connected to a sleeve 18 of a casting machine (see FIG. 6).

一方、可動型5は、図1に示すように、可動型板21、コア部材22、および分流子23を備える。可動型5は、図示しない可動盤に固定されるとともに、固定型4に組み合わされて型締される型閉め位置と、鋳造品31(図4参照)を金型1内から取り出すために固定型4から離間する型開き位置との間で進退自在である。   On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, the movable mold 5 includes a movable mold plate 21, a core member 22, and a diverter 23. The movable mold 5 is fixed to a movable plate (not shown), a mold closing position where the mold is clamped in combination with the fixed mold 4, and a fixed mold for taking out the casting 31 (see FIG. 4) from the mold 1. It is possible to advance and retreat between the mold opening positions separated from 4.

可動型板21は、可動盤に固定されるとともに、固定型4に対向する面にコア部材22が取り付けられる凹部21aを有する。コア部材22は、この凹部21aに取り付けられるとともに、固定型4に対向する。コア部材22は、例えば製品の裏側に対応した型面を有する。図5に示すように、分流子23は、鋳込み口部材13に対向するとともに、鋳込み口部材13に当接する。分流子23は、溶湯を分流させ、鋳込む形状に合わせて充填量を制御するものである。   The movable mold plate 21 is fixed to the movable platen and has a concave portion 21 a to which the core member 22 is attached on the surface facing the fixed mold 4.

As shown in FIG. 5, the diverter 23 faces the casting port member 13 and abuts on the casting port member 13. The diverter 23 diverts the molten metal and controls the filling amount according to the shape to be cast.

図3は、金型1の内部空間41を模式的に示す。固定型4の型面と可動型5の型面とが互いに合わされると、固定型4と可動型5との間には、図3に示すような内部空間41が形成される。この内部空間41は、ビスケット部43、ゲート部44、製品部45、オーバーフロー部46、およびチルベルト部47を備える。ビスケット部43は、鋳込み口部材13の内部に設けられるとともに、鋳造機の射出装置より高温の溶湯を高速で受け取る部分である。なお、このビスケット部43については、詳しく後述する。   FIG. 3 schematically shows the internal space 41 of the mold 1. When the mold surface of the fixed mold 4 and the mold surface of the movable mold 5 are combined with each other, an internal space 41 as shown in FIG. 3 is formed between the fixed mold 4 and the movable mold 5. The internal space 41 includes a biscuit portion 43, a gate portion 44, a product portion 45, an overflow portion 46, and a chill belt portion 47. The biscuit portion 43 is a portion that is provided inside the casting port member 13 and receives high-temperature molten metal at a high speed from the injection device of the casting machine. The biscuit portion 43 will be described in detail later.

ゲート部44は、ビスケット部43に射出された溶湯を製品部45に導く流路であり、例えばフィン状に形成されている。製品部45は、製品形状に対応した空間であり、ここに溶湯が充填されることで任意の製品形状が得られる。オーバーフロー部46は、金型1内の空気を排気して溶湯の充填抵抗を下げるとともに、流動先端の劣化した溶湯を製品部45の外に押し出すための部位である。チルベルト部47は、劣化した溶湯が金型1外に飛び出さないようにする部分である。   The gate portion 44 is a flow path that guides the molten metal injected into the biscuit portion 43 to the product portion 45, and is formed in a fin shape, for example. The product portion 45 is a space corresponding to the product shape, and an arbitrary product shape can be obtained by filling the molten metal into the space. The overflow part 46 is a part for exhausting the air in the mold 1 to lower the filling resistance of the molten metal and for pushing out the molten metal with a deteriorated flow tip to the outside of the product part 45. The chill belt portion 47 is a portion that prevents the deteriorated molten metal from jumping out of the mold 1.

このような金型1を用いると、図4に示すように、ビスケット部43に対応したビスケット51と、ゲート部44に対応したゲート部分52と、製品部45に対応した製品部分53とが一体に成形された鋳造品31が得られる。ビスケット51は、スリーブ18の内径に依存した円柱状に形成され、例えば70mm〜100mm程度の直径を有する。ビスケット51は、高速で前進する射出プランジャー17の停止時の衝撃を緩和する緩衝部としての役割と、サイクルごとの溶湯の供給量の違いを調整する調整部としての役割とを有し、例えば20mm程度の厚さTを必要とする。   When such a mold 1 is used, as shown in FIG. 4, a biscuit 51 corresponding to the biscuit portion 43, a gate portion 52 corresponding to the gate portion 44, and a product portion 53 corresponding to the product portion 45 are integrated. The casting 31 molded into the product is obtained. The biscuit 51 is formed in a cylindrical shape depending on the inner diameter of the sleeve 18 and has a diameter of, for example, about 70 mm to 100 mm. The biscuit 51 has a role as a buffer part that reduces the impact when stopping the injection plunger 17 that moves forward at a high speed, and a role as an adjustment part that adjusts the difference in the amount of molten metal supplied for each cycle. A thickness T of about 20 mm is required.

金型1は、溶湯の固化を遅らせる目的で例えば常に300度近くまで昇温されている。図1に示すように、金型1には、この金型1を昇温するための第1ないし第4の昇温回路61,62,63,64が設けられている。これら第1ないし第4の昇温回路61,62,63,64には、それぞれ鋳造機に設けられた加熱装置との間で循環される高温の油が流され、金型1を約300度の高温に保つ。すなわち固定型4および可動型5は、水の沸点を超える温度まで昇温される。   The mold 1 is always heated to, for example, nearly 300 degrees for the purpose of delaying the solidification of the molten metal. As shown in FIG. 1, the mold 1 is provided with first to fourth temperature raising circuits 61, 62, 63, 64 for raising the temperature of the mold 1. These first to fourth temperature raising circuits 61, 62, 63, 64 are each supplied with hot oil circulated between the heating devices provided in the casting machine, and the mold 1 is moved about 300 degrees. Keep it at a high temperature. That is, the fixed mold 4 and the movable mold 5 are heated to a temperature exceeding the boiling point of water.

詳しく説明すると、図1および図5に示すように、第1の昇温回路61は、固定型板11の側面に開口する開口部から固定型板11の内部に延びており、固定型板11を昇温する回路である。第2の昇温回路62は、固定型板11の側面に開口する開口部からキャビティ部材12の内部に亘るように設けられており、キャビティ部材12を昇温する回路である。第3の昇温回路63は、可動型板21の側面に開口する開口部からコア部材22の内部に亘るように設けられており、コア部材22を昇温する回路である。第4の昇温回路64は、可動型板21の側面に開口する開口部から可動型板21の内部に延びており、可動型板21を昇温する回路である。   More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 5, the first temperature raising circuit 61 extends into the inside of the fixed mold 11 from an opening that opens on the side surface of the fixed mold 11. Is a circuit for raising the temperature. The second temperature raising circuit 62 is provided so as to extend from the opening opening on the side surface of the fixed mold plate 11 to the inside of the cavity member 12, and raises the temperature of the cavity member 12. The third temperature raising circuit 63 is provided so as to extend from the opening opening on the side surface of the movable mold 21 to the inside of the core member 22, and raises the temperature of the core member 22. The fourth temperature raising circuit 64 is a circuit that extends from the opening that opens to the side surface of the movable mold 21 to the inside of the movable mold 21 and raises the temperature of the movable mold 21.

次に、ビスケット部43について説明する。
図5に示すように、分流子23は、鋳込み口部材13に向いて突出した凸部67を有する。凸部67は、鋳込み口部材13の内周面13bに沿うとともに、この凸部67の先端部は鋳込み口部材13の内部に挿入される。図6に示すように、鋳込み口部材13の貫通孔13aには、鋳造機の射出プランジャー17が挿入される。上述のビスケット部43は、分流子23の端面67aと、金型1に押し込まれた射出プランジャー17の端面17aと、鋳込み口部材13の内周面13bとによって形成される。このように、鋳込み口部材13は鋳造時にビスケット51が成形されるビスケット成形領域69を有する。本発明でいうビスケット成形領域69をさらに詳しく定義すると、鋳込み口部材13の径方向からビスケット51に対向する領域のことであり、図5中に一点鎖線で囲む領域のことである。
Next, the biscuit portion 43 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 5, the diverter 23 has a convex portion 67 that protrudes toward the casting port member 13. The convex portion 67 extends along the inner peripheral surface 13 b of the casting port member 13, and the tip portion of the convex portion 67 is inserted into the casting port member 13. As shown in FIG. 6, an injection plunger 17 of a casting machine is inserted into the through hole 13 a of the casting port member 13. The aforementioned biscuit portion 43 is formed by the end surface 67 a of the flow divider 23, the end surface 17 a of the injection plunger 17 pushed into the mold 1, and the inner peripheral surface 13 b of the casting port member 13. Thus, the casting port member 13 has a biscuit forming region 69 in which the biscuit 51 is formed during casting. The biscuit forming region 69 referred to in the present invention is defined in more detail, which is a region facing the biscuit 51 from the radial direction of the casting port member 13, and is a region surrounded by an alternate long and short dash line in FIG.

次に、鋳造時にビスケット51を冷却する冷却回路71について説明する。
図5に示すように、冷却回路71は、固定型4に設けられ、ビスケット成形領域69を外れた鋳込み口部材13の他の領域に沿って設けられている。詳しくは、ビスケット成形領域69と連結端部15との間に領域に沿って設けられている。
Next, the cooling circuit 71 that cools the biscuits 51 during casting will be described.
As shown in FIG. 5, the cooling circuit 71 is provided along the other region of the casting port member 13 that is provided in the fixed mold 4 and is out of the biscuit forming region 69. Specifically, it is provided along the region between the biscuit molding region 69 and the connecting end 15.

冷却回路71は、鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cに周方向に掘られた溝73,74と、鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cに取り付けられたリング状のカラー部材75とによって形成されている。カラー部材75は、鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cに例えば溶接などで隙間なく強固に接合され、溝73,74に蓋をして液密にする。これにより、鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cに沿って、例えば冷却水が流れる冷却水路77が形成されている。なお、冷却水は、ビスケット51を冷却する液体冷媒の一例であり、冷却水路77は、液体冷媒が流れる流路の一例である。   The cooling circuit 71 is formed by grooves 73 and 74 dug in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral surface 13 c of the casting port member 13 and a ring-shaped collar member 75 attached to the outer circumferential surface 13 c of the casting port member 13. . The collar member 75 is firmly joined to the outer peripheral surface 13c of the casting port member 13 by welding, for example, without gaps, and the grooves 73 and 74 are covered to make them liquid-tight. Thereby, a cooling water passage 77 through which, for example, cooling water flows is formed along the outer peripheral surface 13 c of the casting port member 13. The cooling water is an example of a liquid refrigerant that cools the biscuits 51, and the cooling water channel 77 is an example of a channel through which the liquid refrigerant flows.

より詳しくは、冷却回路71の第1および第2の溝73,74は、それぞれ鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cの周方向に沿って形成されているとともに、互いに鋳込み口部材13の軸方向に沿って離間している。第1の溝73は、二つの溝73,74のなかでビスケット成形領域69に近い方の溝である。   More specifically, the first and second grooves 73 and 74 of the cooling circuit 71 are formed along the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral surface 13 c of the casting port member 13, and are mutually in the axial direction of the casting port member 13. Are spaced along. The first groove 73 is a groove closer to the biscuit forming region 69 among the two grooves 73 and 74.

図5に示すように、カラー部材75には、第1の溝73に連通する流入口75aと、第2の溝74に連通する流出口75bとが開口している。さらに固定型板11には、この流入口75aに連通する流入路78aと、流出口75bに連通する流出路78bとが設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 5, the collar member 75 has an inflow port 75 a communicating with the first groove 73 and an outflow port 75 b communicating with the second groove 74. Further, the fixed mold plate 11 is provided with an inflow path 78a communicating with the inflow port 75a and an outflow path 78b communicating with the outflow port 75b.

上記第1の溝73と第2の溝74と間には、第1の溝73と第2の溝74とを互いに連通させる図示しない連通路が設けられている。この連通路は、例えば流入口75aおよび流出口75bとは鋳込み口部材13の周方向に沿った反対側に設けられている。第1の溝73は、この連通路よりも下流となる部分が塞がれている。第2の溝74は、この連通路よりも上流となる部分が塞がれている。これにより第1および第2の溝73,74は、協働して鋳込み口部材13を周方向に360度取り囲む一本の冷却水路77を形成することになる。   Between the first groove 73 and the second groove 74, there is provided a communication path (not shown) that allows the first groove 73 and the second groove 74 to communicate with each other. This communication path is provided, for example, on the opposite side along the circumferential direction of the casting port member 13 from the inflow port 75a and the outflow port 75b. The first groove 73 is closed at a portion downstream of the communication path. The second groove 74 is closed at a portion upstream from the communication path. Thus, the first and second grooves 73 and 74 cooperate to form a single cooling water channel 77 that surrounds the casting port member 13 in the circumferential direction by 360 degrees.

このような構成によれば、鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cを360度取り囲むとともに、流入口75aと流出口75bとを周方向の同じ位置に開口させた冷却回路71を、単純な構成によって実現することができる。   According to such a configuration, the cooling circuit 71 that surrounds the outer peripheral surface 13c of the casting port member 13 by 360 degrees and has the inlet 75a and the outlet 75b opened at the same circumferential position is realized by a simple configuration. can do.

図5に示すように、第1の溝73は、ビスケット51の端面51aから例えば5mm〜10mmの間隔Sを空けて配置されている。第2の溝74は、ビスケット51の端面51aから第1の溝73よりも大きな間隔を空けて配置されている。   As shown in FIG. 5, the first groove 73 is arranged with an interval S of, for example, 5 mm to 10 mm from the end surface 51 a of the biscuit 51. The second groove 74 is disposed at a larger distance from the end surface 51 a of the biscuit 51 than the first groove 73.

固定型板11に設けられた流入路78aと流出路78bには、鋳造機に設けられた循環装置(図示しない)が接続される。循環装置は、流入路78aに冷却水を送出するとともに、流出路78bに流れる冷却水を回収する。循環装置はさらに鋳造機に設けられた冷却装置(図示しない)に接続されている。冷却装置は、循環装置が回収した冷却水を冷却する。   A circulation device (not shown) provided in the casting machine is connected to the inflow path 78a and the outflow path 78b provided in the fixed mold plate 11. The circulation device sends the cooling water to the inflow path 78a and collects the cooling water flowing to the outflow path 78b. The circulation device is further connected to a cooling device (not shown) provided in the casting machine. The cooling device cools the cooling water collected by the circulation device.

冷却水路77は、鋳造機に設けられた冷却装置との間で循環される冷却水が流れる。詳しくは、循環装置から固定型板11の流入路78aに送出された冷却水は、カラー部材75の流入口75aを通じて第1の溝73に流れ込む。第1の溝73に流れ込んだ冷却水は、第1の溝73に沿って鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cを約半周に亘り流れた後、連通路を通じて第2の溝74に流れ込む。   In the cooling water passage 77, the cooling water circulated between the cooling device provided in the casting machine flows. Specifically, the cooling water sent from the circulation device to the inflow path 78 a of the stationary mold plate 11 flows into the first groove 73 through the inflow port 75 a of the collar member 75. The cooling water that has flowed into the first groove 73 flows along the first groove 73 on the outer peripheral surface 13 c of the casting port member 13 over about a half circumference, and then flows into the second groove 74 through the communication path.

第2の溝74に流れ込んだ冷却水は、第2の溝74に沿って鋳込み口部材13の外周面13cを残りの半周に亘り流れ、カラー部材75の流出口75bから固定型板11の流出路78bへと流れ込む。流出路78bへ流れ込んだ冷却水は、循環装置に回収され、冷却装置により冷却された後、再び流出路78bへと送出される。   The cooling water that has flowed into the second groove 74 flows along the second groove 74 on the outer peripheral surface 13 c of the casting port member 13 over the remaining half circumference, and flows out of the stationary mold plate 11 from the outlet 75 b of the collar member 75. It flows into the road 78b. The cooling water that has flowed into the outflow path 78b is collected by the circulation device, cooled by the cooling device, and then sent out to the outflow path 78b again.

ここで、固定型4は上述の第1および第2の昇温回路61,62により約300度の高温に保たれる。冷却水路77は、冷却水が固定型4内で沸騰しないように所定以上の流速で流される。   Here, the fixed mold 4 is maintained at a high temperature of about 300 degrees by the first and second temperature raising circuits 61 and 62 described above. The cooling water channel 77 is made to flow at a predetermined flow rate or higher so that the cooling water does not boil in the fixed mold 4.

図1に示すように、鋳込み口部材13を冷却する冷却回路71とは別に、分流子23を冷却する冷却回路81が設けられている。この冷却回路81は、可動型板21の側面に開口した開口部から分流子23の内部に亘って延びているとともに、鋳造機に設けられた循環装置および冷却装置に接続されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, a cooling circuit 81 for cooling the current divider 23 is provided separately from the cooling circuit 71 for cooling the casting port member 13. The cooling circuit 81 extends from the opening portion opened on the side surface of the movable mold plate 21 to the inside of the flow divider 23, and is connected to a circulation device and a cooling device provided in the casting machine.

次に、金型1を用いたダイカスト鋳造による成形品2に製造方法について説明する。
まず、上述の金型1を備えた鋳造機を準備する。金型1は、昇温回路61,62,63,64に高温の油を流し、約300度程度まで昇温されるとともに、冷却回路71,81に液体冷媒を循環させた状態に準備される。また、原材料の金属(例えばマグネシウム合金)を溶融して溶湯とする。溶湯の温度は、例えば約700度である。
Next, a manufacturing method for the molded product 2 by die casting using the mold 1 will be described.
First, a casting machine provided with the above-described mold 1 is prepared. The mold 1 is prepared in such a manner that high temperature oil is allowed to flow through the temperature raising circuits 61, 62, 63, 64, the temperature is raised to about 300 degrees, and the liquid refrigerant is circulated through the cooling circuits 71, 81. . Also, the raw material metal (eg, magnesium alloy) is melted to form a molten metal. The temperature of the molten metal is, for example, about 700 degrees.

次いで鋳造サイクルに入る。まず、可動型5が動いて、固定型4に組み合わされて型締される。次に、鋳込み口部材13に連結されたスリーブ18内に溶湯を注入し、射出プランジャーを高速で押し出し、鋳込み口部材13から金型1内に溶湯を充填する。このとき、金型1が昇温されているので、溶湯の温度低下が抑制されて、溶湯はゲート部44を介して製品部45に充填される。また、鋳込み口部材13の内部に形成されたビスケット部43には、ビスケット51が成形される。このビスケット51は、上述のゲート部分52および製品部分53と一体に成形される。   The casting cycle is then entered. First, the movable mold 5 moves and is combined with the fixed mold 4 and clamped. Next, the molten metal is injected into the sleeve 18 connected to the casting port member 13, the injection plunger is pushed out at a high speed, and the molten metal is filled into the mold 1 from the casting port member 13. At this time, since the mold 1 is heated, the temperature drop of the molten metal is suppressed, and the molten metal is filled into the product part 45 via the gate part 44. A biscuit 51 is formed in the biscuit portion 43 formed inside the casting port member 13. The biscuit 51 is formed integrally with the gate portion 52 and the product portion 53 described above.

製品部分53の基本肉厚は、例えば0.6mm以下であり、充填後に急激に固化が進む。一方、ビスケット51は、例えば厚さTが20mmもあり、製品部分53に比べて厚肉のため固化しにくいが、冷却回路71が鋳込み口部材13の連結端部15とビスケット成形領域69との間の領域を冷却することで、ビスケット51の固化が促進される。これにより、薄肉の製品部分53の固化が進み過ぎないうちにビスケット51の固化が完了する。   The basic thickness of the product portion 53 is, for example, 0.6 mm or less, and solidification proceeds rapidly after filling. On the other hand, the biscuit 51 has a thickness T of 20 mm, for example, and is harder to solidify because it is thicker than the product portion 53. By cooling the area in between, solidification of the biscuits 51 is promoted. Thereby, solidification of the biscuit 51 is completed before solidification of the thin product part 53 progresses too much.

ビスケット51の固化を待って、可動型5が動いて型が開き、金型1内から製品部分53とビスケット51とを含む鋳造品31を取り出す。これにより、ダイカスト鋳造の1サイクルが終了する。金型1から取り出された鋳造品31は、ビスケット51およびとゲート部分52を含む不要部分が製品部分53から切り離され、所望の成形品2が得られる。   After the biscuit 51 is solidified, the movable mold 5 moves to open the mold, and the casting 31 including the product portion 53 and the biscuit 51 is taken out from the mold 1. This completes one cycle of die casting. In the cast product 31 taken out from the mold 1, unnecessary parts including the biscuit 51 and the gate portion 52 are separated from the product portion 53, and the desired molded product 2 is obtained.

このような構成の金型1によれば、薄肉成形品の鋳造性が向上する。
例えば、ビスケット成形領域69を取り囲むように冷却回路が配置されている(すなわちビスケット51の厚みの中心部が冷却回路内に収まるように冷却水路が通っている)と、金型注入時に溶湯の温度が大きく低下してしまい、溶湯の流動性が低下してしまう。
According to the mold 1 having such a configuration, the castability of a thin molded product is improved.
For example, when the cooling circuit is arranged so as to surround the biscuit molding region 69 (that is, the cooling water channel passes through the center of the thickness of the biscuit 51 within the cooling circuit), the temperature of the molten metal at the time of mold injection Is greatly reduced, and the fluidity of the molten metal is reduced.

金型注入時の溶湯の温度低下を抑制するために、例えば冷却回路71の冷却性能を下げることも考えられる。冷却回路71の冷却性能を下げる方法として、例えば冷却回路71を流れる液体冷媒の温度をある程度高く設定することが考えられる。しかしながら、この液体冷媒は約300度まで昇温されている金型1内に繰り返し循環されるため、例え液体冷媒の温度を設定しようとしても、金型1からの熱伝導で液体冷媒の温度は時間が経つに従い設定値から掛け離れてしまうため、実質的に液体冷媒の温度管理を行うことは不可能に近い。   In order to suppress the temperature drop of the molten metal at the time of mold injection, for example, the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71 may be lowered. As a method for lowering the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71, for example, it is conceivable to set the temperature of the liquid refrigerant flowing through the cooling circuit 71 to a certain level. However, since this liquid refrigerant is repeatedly circulated in the mold 1 heated to about 300 ° C., even if an attempt is made to set the temperature of the liquid refrigerant, the temperature of the liquid refrigerant is reduced by heat conduction from the mold 1. Since it is far from the set value as time passes, it is almost impossible to manage the temperature of the liquid refrigerant substantially.

また一般に、循環装置の液体冷媒の吐出圧力は鋳造機ごとに決まっていることが多く、液体冷媒の吐出量を制御できないことが多い。そこで本発明者は、冷却回路71の溝73,74の断面積を大きくすることで液体冷媒の流速を低下させ、それによって冷却回路71の冷却性能を下げ、金型注入時に溶湯の温度低下を抑制することができないかと考えた。しかしながら、液体冷媒の流速を低下させると、固定型4内での液体冷媒の温度上昇幅が大きくなる。例えば冷却水のような沸点が低い液体冷媒を用いるためには、この液体冷媒が金型1内で沸騰しないように所定以上の流速で固定型4内を通過させる必要があることがわかった。特に液体冷媒が流れる流路が鋳込み口部材13を周方向に取り囲むような比較的長い流路長を有すると、液体冷媒の流速をある程度以上に設定する必要があるため、溶湯の温度低下をあまり抑制することができないことがわかった。   In general, the discharge pressure of the liquid refrigerant in the circulation device is often determined for each casting machine, and the discharge amount of the liquid refrigerant cannot often be controlled. Therefore, the present inventor reduces the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant by increasing the cross-sectional area of the grooves 73 and 74 of the cooling circuit 71, thereby lowering the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71, and lowering the temperature of the molten metal during mold injection. I thought it couldn't be suppressed. However, when the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant is decreased, the temperature rise of the liquid refrigerant in the fixed mold 4 increases. For example, in order to use a liquid refrigerant having a low boiling point such as cooling water, it has been found that the liquid refrigerant needs to be passed through the fixed mold 4 at a predetermined flow rate or higher so that the liquid refrigerant does not boil in the mold 1. In particular, if the flow path through which the liquid refrigerant flows has a relatively long flow path length that surrounds the casting port member 13 in the circumferential direction, it is necessary to set the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant to a certain level or more, so that the temperature of the molten metal is not significantly reduced. It turns out that it cannot be suppressed.

すなわち、本発明の実施形態の前提となる金型1は、その全体は溶湯の固化を遅らせる目的で常に300度近くまで昇温されており、そのなかで鋳込み口部材13の内部に成形されるビスケット51を冷却しなければならないという特殊性を有する。   That is, the mold 1 as a premise of the embodiment of the present invention is always heated to nearly 300 degrees for the purpose of delaying the solidification of the molten metal, and is molded inside the casting port member 13 in that temperature. It has the special feature that the biscuits 51 must be cooled.

しかしながら、上記のような構成によれば、冷却回路71の冷却性能を精度良く管理することなく、ビスケット51の固化促進と溶湯の温度低下の抑制とのバランスを取ることで薄肉成形品の鋳造性を向上させた金型1を提供することができる。すなわち、ビスケット51を冷却するための冷却回路71をビスケット成形領域69の周囲から敢えて外し、この冷却回路71を鋳込み口部材13の連結端部15とビスケット成形領域69との間の領域に沿って配置することで、溶湯の温度低下を抑制し、且つ、ビスケット51の固化促進を図ることができる。   However, according to the configuration as described above, the castability of the thin-walled molded product is achieved by balancing the acceleration of solidification of the biscuits 51 and the suppression of the temperature drop of the molten metal without accurately managing the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71. It is possible to provide a mold 1 with improved quality. That is, the cooling circuit 71 for cooling the biscuit 51 is deliberately removed from the periphery of the biscuit forming region 69, and the cooling circuit 71 is disposed along the region between the connecting end 15 of the casting port member 13 and the biscuit forming region 69. By arrange | positioning, the temperature fall of a molten metal can be suppressed and the solidification promotion of the biscuit 51 can be aimed at.

この構成によれば、冷却回路71の冷却性能をコントロールする必要がないため、簡単な構成で上記効果を得ることができる。冷却回路71を含む冷却装置関連の構造を単純にできることは、高温高圧を取り扱う鋳造機および金型1において極めて有利である。さらに冷却回路71の冷却性能をコントロールしなくてすむので、液体冷媒の吐出量や吐出圧力を調整する必要がなく、以前の鋳造機をそのまま使用することができる。   According to this configuration, since it is not necessary to control the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71, the above effect can be obtained with a simple configuration. The ability to simplify the structure related to the cooling device including the cooling circuit 71 is extremely advantageous in the casting machine and the mold 1 that handle high temperature and high pressure. Further, since it is not necessary to control the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71, it is not necessary to adjust the discharge amount and discharge pressure of the liquid refrigerant, and the previous casting machine can be used as it is.

上記のような構成の成形品2の製造方法によれば、冷却回路71の冷却性能を精度良く管理することなく、ビスケット51の固化促進と溶湯の温度低下の抑制とのバランスを取ることで薄肉成形品の鋳造性を向上させた成形品の製造方法を提供することができる。また、そのような鋳造方法による成形品を提供することができる。   According to the manufacturing method of the molded product 2 having the above-described configuration, the thinning is achieved by balancing the acceleration of the solidification of the biscuits 51 and the suppression of the temperature drop of the molten metal without accurately managing the cooling performance of the cooling circuit 71. It is possible to provide a method for manufacturing a molded product with improved castability of the molded product. Moreover, the molded article by such a casting method can be provided.

図7は、冷却回路71をビスケット成形領域69を外して設けた場合の効果を示す実験結果の一例を示す。図7は、横軸に成形品としてのB5サイズのポータブルコンピュータの筐体ベースの基本肉厚を取り、縦軸に流動比を取る。なお「流動比」とは、流動長を基本肉厚で除した値である。また「流動長」とは、溶湯が流れる長さである。   FIG. 7 shows an example of an experimental result showing the effect when the cooling circuit 71 is provided with the biscuit forming region 69 removed. In FIG. 7, the horizontal axis represents the basic thickness of the casing base of a B5 size portable computer as a molded product, and the vertical axis represents the flow ratio. The “flow ratio” is a value obtained by dividing the flow length by the basic wall thickness. The “flow length” is the length of the molten metal flowing.

図7に示すように、「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域を外れて設けられている場合」(図7中、実線)の方が「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域に沿って設けられている場合」(図7中、破線)に比べて溶湯の流動性が良好であることがわかる。また、別の実験データから金型注入時の溶湯温度が約100度上昇し、流動性が約2倍に上昇することがわかった。さらに、金型1から取り外した直後の鋳造品31のビスケット51の温度測定を行うと、「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域を外れて設けられている場合」の方が「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域に沿って設けられている場合」に比べてビスケット51の温度が100度近く高くなることも確認されている。   As shown in FIG. 7, “when the cooling circuit is provided outside the biscuit forming region” (solid line in FIG. 7) is “when the cooling circuit is provided along the biscuit forming region” ( It can be seen that the fluidity of the molten metal is better than that in FIG. Further, from another experimental data, it was found that the melt temperature at the time of mold injection increased by about 100 degrees and the fluidity increased by about 2 times. Further, when the temperature of the biscuit 51 of the casting 31 immediately after being removed from the mold 1 is measured, the case where “the cooling circuit is provided outside the biscuit molding region” is “the cooling circuit is in the biscuit molding region”. It has also been confirmed that the temperature of the biscuits 51 is nearly 100 degrees higher than the case where it is provided along.

また本発明の実施形態は、例えば基本肉厚が0.6mm以下の薄肉成形品の鋳造において特に有利であるといえる。例えば図7中の「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域に沿って設けられている場合」から明らかなように、基本肉厚が0.6mmを超える場合は、基本肉厚が薄くなるに従い流動比は比例的に低下するが、基本肉厚が0.6mm以下の場合は、基本肉厚が薄くなるに従い流動比は急激に低下することがわかる。溶湯の流動性を改善する本発明の実施形態は、このような流動比が急激に低下する領域において特に顕著な効果を発揮するといえる。   The embodiment of the present invention can be said to be particularly advantageous, for example, in casting a thin molded product having a basic thickness of 0.6 mm or less. For example, as is clear from “when the cooling circuit is provided along the biscuit molding region” in FIG. 7, when the basic thickness exceeds 0.6 mm, the flow ratio is proportional as the basic thickness decreases. However, when the basic thickness is 0.6 mm or less, it can be seen that the flow ratio rapidly decreases as the basic thickness decreases. It can be said that the embodiment of the present invention that improves the fluidity of the molten metal exhibits a particularly remarkable effect in such a region where the flow ratio rapidly decreases.

また別の観点からいえば、本発明の実施形態は、例えば基本肉厚が0.4mm以上0.5mm以下の薄肉成形品の鋳造において特に有利であるといえる。「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域に沿って設けられている場合」では、B5サイズの筐体ベースを0.5mm以下の薄肉で鋳造しようとしても流動長が不足して鋳造することができなかった。これを図7に当てはめると、B5サイズ程度の大きさの鋳造品においては、流動比が400程度必要であることがわかる。   From another viewpoint, the embodiment of the present invention can be said to be particularly advantageous in the casting of a thin molded product having a basic thickness of 0.4 mm to 0.5 mm, for example. In “when the cooling circuit is provided along the biscuit molding region”, even if an attempt was made to cast a B5 size casing base with a thin wall of 0.5 mm or less, the flow length was insufficient and casting could not be performed. When this is applied to FIG. 7, it is understood that a casting ratio of about B5 size requires a flow ratio of about 400.

一方、「冷却回路がビスケット成形領域を外れて設けられている場合」は、基本肉厚が0.4mm以上0.5mm以下の範囲においても流動比を400以上確保することができる。なおこの実験結果は筐体ベースについてであるが、筐体カバーでも同様の効果を得られるのはもちろんである。   On the other hand, when “the cooling circuit is provided outside the biscuit forming region”, a flow ratio of 400 or more can be ensured even when the basic thickness is in the range of 0.4 mm to 0.5 mm. This experimental result is for the case base, but it goes without saying that the same effect can be obtained with the case cover.

以上、本発明の一つの実施形態について説明したが、本発明はこれらに限定されるものではなく、発明の主旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々変形して実施可能である。なお本発明が適用される成形品は、基本肉厚が0.6mm以下の成形品に限定されるものではなく、広く一般に適用することができる。   As mentioned above, although one embodiment of the present invention was described, the present invention is not limited to these, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. The molded product to which the present invention is applied is not limited to a molded product having a basic thickness of 0.6 mm or less, and can be widely applied in general.

例えば上記実施形態では第1の溝73が液体冷媒の流れの上流側で第2の溝74が下流側であったが、第1の溝73が下流側で第2の溝74が上流側であってもよい。   For example, in the above embodiment, the first groove 73 is upstream of the flow of the liquid refrigerant and the second groove 74 is downstream, but the first groove 73 is downstream and the second groove 74 is upstream. There may be.
