Definitions

  • This invention relates to a container, and more particularly hasreference to a ladlein a centrifugal casting apparatus.
  • molten metal is introduced into a rotating mold.
  • the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the mold serves to maintain upon the inner surface of the mold the metal that impinges thereon.
  • molten metal is oured just Within one end of the mold, and) the mold so manipulated that the metal is distributed within the mold as desired.
  • a mold of comparatively low heat conductivity is required for this process, in vorder that the contained heat of the molten metal Will not be absorbed and carried off by the mold.
  • metal is poured over the side of a so-called dump trough which extends substantially the length of the mold.
  • the trough is rotated and the metal is deposited in a sheet-like formation the length of the dump trough.
  • Such a mold provides for' a more uniform longitudinal distribution of the metal in the'mold, and hence the mold employed may be of a somewhat higher heat conductivity than that employed in the first type of operation.
  • the third process which is preferable 1- under most conditions, practically no adjustment of the metal, either longitudinally or circumferentially of the mold is necessary 5 after it is poured into the mold.
  • the metal is poured from the end of a pouring trough, which moves longitudinally with respect to the rotating mold. Such movement, together with the rotation of the mold, builds up the metal on the interior of the mold insuccessive and spirally related columns. Each turn of the spiral column must be deposited before the preceding turn has solidified, and thus adjacent columns may coalesce and insure a casting of unlform thickness.
  • the object cast be of uniform thickness, and* to vary the thickness along the length of the object, which is particularly true in the casting of pipe where the barrel is of uniform thickness, but Where the ends may require a structure of greater thickness.
  • the third casting operation is preferable.
  • the thickness of the casting is a function of the speed of th'e rotation of the mold, the rate at which. the trough traverses the mold (in the third method), and the amount of metal discharged into the .mold A variation in any one of these factors will result in a casting of non-uniform thickness.
  • Another object is .to devise a centrifugal casting process.
  • Yet another object is to provide a ladle.
  • a further object of this invention is to lpro- ⁇ ose- -ly the discharge of its contents.
  • my invention in general comprises a container that may readily be dismantled, and means for expelling the contents of the container at a determined rate.
  • Figure 1 is a side view in elevation of a casting apparatus.
  • Figure 2 is a view of the charging end of a ladle.
  • Figure 3 is a view of the ladle in position for cleaning.
  • Figure 4 is a side sectional view of the ladle and proximate end of the pouring trou h.
  • Figure 5 is a sectional view along the line 5-5 of Figure 4 looking in the direction of the arrows.
  • Figure 6 is a view along the line 6'6 of Figure 4 looking in the direction of the arrows.
  • Figure 7 shows the ladle with a modified f form of device for controlling a back pressure in the gas line.
  • the base plate 1 supports a casing 5 for the ladle.
  • This casing 5 is preferably rectangular, although under suitable circumstances its shape may be modified.
  • flanges 7 and the base plate 1 are secured together by means of bolts8, rivets, or 'other trunnions 9.
  • T ese trunnions are provided with anges 11 through which rivets 12, or other suitable. securing means, extend to fasten the trunnions to the-casing 5.v Annular grooves 13 are provided in the trunnions 9 and are adapted to receive hooks or other appropriate supporting means as will be hereinafter pointed out. It will therefore be seen that by engaging the trunnions 9 with proper engaging means the ladle may be raised and supported pivotally, so that it maybe tipped to empty the ladle.
  • a lining 16, composed of suitable refractory material is provided within the casing 5.
  • a linin 17 is also provided on the base plate-1. his refractory material is able to withstand the high temperatures to which the ladle is subjected when molten metal is introduced.
  • a cover plate 18 rests upon the outwardly extending flanges 6, and is secured thereto by means of bolts 19 which may be readily re.-
  • a manually operable valve 27 adapted to be regulated to control the pressure in the system.
  • the pipe 24 isv also provided with a valve 28, which governs the admission of a fluid to the pipe.
  • This system arrangement serves to convey air or any other gas, und-er its operation being more specifically pointed out hereinafter.
  • the pipe 24 is swivelled at a point beyond the valve 28, so that it may be rotated about its swivelling point and beyond the vertical planes of the ladle.
  • the piping in the system is large enough to be substantially frictionless, and the pressure throughout the system is. therefore uniform.
  • -By system I mean all of the piping on the low pressure side of the valve 28, and the chamber of the la le.
  • Thls chargin spout comprises a metal casing 31 having si e members 32 and 33, and a slanting wall 34.
  • the wall 32 has an outwardly projecting vertical flange 35 and an-outwardly projecting horizontal iiang'e 36 at its base.
  • the side- 33 has a flange 37 that extends vertically along the edge of the wall adjacent the casing 5, and a base iange 38.
  • the casing 31 is secured to the casing 5 by means of bolts 39, that extend through the ianges 35 and 37 into the casing 5.
  • iiange 41 is provided at the base of the slanting wall 34, and this iange, together with flanges 36 and 38, is secured to the base plate 1 by means of bolts 42.
  • a refractory lining 43 Within the-casmg 31 there fits a refractory lining 43. Inte ral with this lining is a section 44 of the re ractory material which rests against the outside of the casing 5. It will be observed that the lining 44 extends above the top of the charging spout 29, and iits snugly against the under side of flange 6. An opening 45 is provided in the lining 44 which corresponds to the charging port 14 in size. It will be. observed that the lining 16 extends beneath the casing 5 at the charging port 14, and that the linings 43 and 44 lll make a tight joint With the casing 5 and the linings 16 and 17. This tight fit is impo-rtant in order to prevent an of the molten metal 'seeping into the joint ormed by the linings.
  • a discharge spout 46 In the front of the ladle there is provided a discharge spout 46, similar to the. charging spout 29, but terminating at an elevation below the top of the charging spout.
  • the discharge spout comprises a casing 47, and is provided With base flanges 48 and vertical flanges 49.
  • the vertical flanges 49 are secured to the casing 5 by means of bolts 5l, While bolts 52 secure the base iiange 48 and the base plate 1.
  • a refractory lining 53 is provided in the discharge spout, and this linin is similar-ito'the. linings 43 and 44 of the c arging spout. 1t extends to the lower side of the iiange and is provided With an aperture 54 corresponding to the outlet port 15 in the casing 5 and lining 16.
  • the lining 53 is provided with an outturned lip 5.5, over Which the molten metal is discharged.
  • chute 56 which is positioned adjacent the lip 55
  • the chute 56 is adapted to ifit into a trough frame 57, which is provided with a sectional lining 58.
  • This sectional lining is of the type set forth in my copending application, Which has now become Patent No. 1,776,540 dated September 28, 1930, although 'it is of course understood that under certain circumstances the type of chute and trough may be varied.
  • the chute 56 forms a tight fit with the lining 58 to prevent the seepage of any molten metal into the juncture.
  • the trough casing 57 is mounted on the support 3. As shown in Figure 6, studs 59, secured to the support 3, provide a berth for the trough casing 57 Plates 61, secured to the studs 59 by means of bolts 62, or other suitable means, extend partially over the trough casing 57 and firmly hold the trough inposition. 'Bhe extension of the trough from the support 3 may therefore be varied by removing the plates 61, positioning fthe trough as desired, and then securing the plate 61 to the studs 59. Variations in the proj ection of the trough from the support3 call Yfor a corresponding reallocation of the chute 56 in t-he trough. This may readily be accomplished, for the lining 58 may be in sections, and the necessarysections may be .1nserted or removed so that the chute 5.6 Will always be positioned under the lip 55 of the discharge spout.
  • the trough casing 57 is,y provided with a discharge spout 63, which is preferably o-f the type shown and described in my above men- -pressed air or gas is admitted to tioned Patent No. 1,77 6,540, although under some conditions the spout may be of a modified form.
  • Y.I have shown diagrammatically in Figure 1 a mold and its associated mechanism.
  • a carriage 64 provided with Wheels 65, rotatably supports a mold 66.
  • a suitable driving. device 67 By means/bf a suitable driving. device 67, and necessary gearing (not shown), the mold is rotated Within the carriage 64.
  • the carriage 64 runs on a track 68Il on which track may also be positioned the support 3. It is of course obvious that alterationsmay be shown in this structure Vto meet the exigencies of a particular situation.
  • FIGs 2 and 3 there is shown a device for removing the ladle from the support 3.
  • This device comprises a chain 69 that supports tvvo arms 71.
  • On the ends of the arms are hooks 72 adapted tof engage the grooves 13 of the trunnions 9.
  • hooks 72 By positioning the hooks 72 in t-he grooves, there is prevented any transverse displacement of the ladle With re'- spect to the arms 71, but pivoting of the ladle on the trunnions is unrestricted.
  • the ladle may be tilted in order to pour out any surplus metal at the completion of a casting operation, but the v ladle is normally maintained in an upright .has already been pointed out, the solidiication of metal Within the ladle seriously impedes the efficient operation of the device, for it not onlyadheres to the Walls of the ladle but also the ports are liable to be clogged by the metal.
  • FIG 7 there is shown a vmodification of my invention, particularly adapted when it is desired to automatically control the pressure existing Within the chamber.
  • Comthe .system through the valve 28 (see Fig. 4).
  • a flexible conduit 73 This conduit is joined to a Well, tube or pipe 74 closed at its top as at 75.
  • the junction of the conduit 73 and the tube or Well 74 should be fluid and pressure tight to prevent the escape of any of the contained gas.
  • a hook 76, or other suitablevmeans the tube or Well 74 is suspended from a cable 77.
  • This cable passes over a sheave 78 rotatable upon an 'axle 79, and is' Wound upon a drum 80.
  • the drum 80 is rotatably mounted'mpon bearings 81, and is driven lby a motor 82, or other alternative means.
  • the Well 74 may be lowered into a body of liquid 83, contained in a receptacle 84. It is of course to be understood that my invention also contemplates a device in which the Well is maintained stationary and the level of the liquid body 83 varied. Assuming that a given quantity of gas or air is being admitted to the system, the pressure of this body of gas will be dependent upon the extent to which the tube or well 74 is submerged in the liquid 83. If the relative position of the well 74 and the surface of liquid 83 remains fixed, andair is continuously admitted to the system through the valve 28, a constant pressure, depending upon the position of the well 74, will exist within the system because of the escape of surplus air through the well 74 and liquid 83. As the well 74 is lowered within the liquid 83, the u pressure within the system will be raised as the resistance to escape of the gas is increased by augmenting the hydrostatic head. As above pointed out, the pressure throughout the system is uniform, for the pipes are substantially frictionless.
  • the drum may be either lowered at a uniform rate, or at a varyingVK rate. If the latter is desired, the drum maly7 be of irregulary circumference, or the speed of the motor may be varied.
  • the eHect of this increase in pressure in the'ladle is to lower the metal in the chamber 5 and to raise-the levels of the metal in the charging spouts and dischargingspout.
  • the head of metal due to differences between levels in the chamber and the discharge spout ofthe ladleawillv alson to the increase of volumedue to eXpansion of the gas, there will be'x no increase in pressure and consequently the rate of flow o fzmetal will not be affected by this expanslon.
  • valve 28 is opened to admit to the system a stream of gas, the rate, however, not being enough to cause any friction.
  • valve 27 As the pressure within the system is built up by the admission of this gas, the exact pressure desired is. controlled' by the operation of valve 27, which serves to permit the escape of gas in excess of the amount necessary to establish the pressure required.
  • valve 27 is manually turned to decrease the amount of gas that escapes.
  • the chute through the trough to the spout 63 where it is poured into the mold 66, which is rotating.
  • the carriage 64 moves away from the support 3, and this movement, together with the rotation of the mold 66, causes the columnY of metal discharged from the spout 63 to be built up on the interior surface of the mold in spirals.
  • the timing of the various steps is closely regulated, .and a loss of time is always to be avoided.
  • the operation may continue without interruption so far as the ladling process is concerned.
  • the ladle may be readily dismantled by re# ⁇ moving the bolts'19 and taking oil the cover plate 18.
  • the charging ⁇ and discharging l spouts, together with their linings, may also be easily removed by loosening the bolts 39 and 51 respectively.
  • the cover plate 18, the charging spout 29 and the discharging spout 46 are removed, the interior of the ladle and the inlet and outlet orifices 14 and 15 are accessible, and may be easily cleaned.
  • the spouts may also be cleaned when the ladle is thus taken down. y
