IMPROVED COMPOSITION FOR MAKING CORES FOR CASTINGS.
To @ZZ whom, t may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD Rnns, of Cincinnati, Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the Composition of Loani for Cores, Src., especially adapted for chilled castings; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the component ingredients and the relative proportions of the same as I have found them best adapted for the purpose desired, together with the method of mixing the same. I have likewise illustrated the result of using the composition by a drawing, which is made part of this specification, and represents a chill, a, and axle-boxy I), with longitudinal oil-chambers c c in its concavity, thus effecting most easily what has been hitherto deemed excessively difficult if not impracticable.
The object of my invention is to enable the ordinary loam when used for cores to resist the action of molten metal sufficiently long to let the metal set before it has any tendency to blow, slip, or wash, even if it is fixed upon a smooth chill-such as those, for
instance, around which axle-boxes are castand Iyet leave it sufficiently porous in its character to allow the passage through its substance of the gases generated in the ordinary loam by the contact ofthe hot metal.
In the manufacture of' chilled axle-boxes or journal-bearings, for example, it is very desirable to provide in the concave surface of the box,especially,a series of recesses or chambers parallel with its axis. All attempts to do this by cores made in the ordinary way have hitherto failed, in consequence of the blowing and washing away of' the lnaterial of the core from the polished surface ofthe chill.
vThe bad eifectsof the partial removal of the particles which go to form these banks of loam is evident, as they become distributed over the smooth surface of the chill, and form sharp grinding points impossible to remove and destructive of the axle or `journal bearings. Iure albumcn, more commonly known as white of egg,77 I have discovered is endowed with the capacity of being instantaneously rendered solidly Contact with molten metal and of resisting sufficiently long to let the metal set any tendency in the other ingredients forming loam7 for chilled castings to.
slip, wash, or blow with injurious effect. Albumen is adhesive, porous, and in addition solidiiics first and then only Crisps under ex* cessive heat, although,after the metal has set, it matters not what action goes on within the core or through the blow-holes. Vhite of egg or albumen has long been known and used as an ingredient in cement and as a covering for drawings, the., but its capacity for effectually resisting the abrading action of molten metal sufficiently long to let the metal set is to me new, and the practical result exhibited in chilled pipeboxes with longitudinal oil-cham-` bers proves its utility, inasmuch as it enables me to furnish the market with an article hitherto unattainable at a selling price. The composition of the loam which I prefer for this description of casting is as follows: good loam sand, eight parts; horse-dung, (fresa) six parts; common clay, one part; total, fifteen parts, to be mixed with water to the consistency of loam used in ordinary molding. Mix up half a bushel at a time and reserve for use as it may be wanted. The horse-dung forms a bond for the other ingredients.
Vhen about to make the cores, I take as much of the above as I require, and to each pint of it I add the following mixture: the white of one egg and quicklime of the bulk of a nutmeg, which must be previously well beaten together and intimately combined. The whole of the material thus proportioned is then well amalgamated together and it is ready for use.
To illustrate my invent-ion by its adapta tion to casting chilled axle-boxes with longi-v tudinal oil-chambers, I take a hollow chill with holes drilled in its periphery in lines longitudinally, and upon this and over these holes I make little banks of this composition, which has sufficient toughness to resist the fiow of the molten metal, is sufficiently porous to allow the escapev of the gases, &c., which are evolved, and by the intimateintermixture of the loam with the white of egg, which not only acts as cement to the mixture, but which,when in contact with the hot metal, is not subject to blistering or being converted into steam, as has been the case with many compositions heretofore assayed, into which glue or some such simple ccmenting article are introduced. This mixture while wet and soft has considerable adhesion and tenacity, and as it becomes dry retains a firm hold on the chill. rIhe saving of expense in casting by this method of making cores-t0 pursue the illustration of the chilled axle-box-is very great, as the whole expense of thc box thus cast is not much greater than thc cost of caschardening them when cast upon a common unchilled core.
Having thus fully, clearly, and exactly described thc nature of my improvement, and yillustrated it by its adaption to the method ol"y casting chilled axle boxes with longitudinal oil-cl1ambe1s,wl1at I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
