Abstract

In a moulding machine for producing flaskless moulds, said machine comprising two flasks (3, 4) and corresponding squeeze plates (5, 6) with associated mounting means (1, 2) allowing relative movement of the squeeze plates (5, 6) in an axial direction, provision of tilting means (7, 8) provides a possibility of aligning the squeeze plates (5, 6) with possibly distorted mould surfaces, thereby preventing the produced mould parts from tilting during the push-out from the flasks (3, 4), said tilting movement potentially leading to misalignment of the superposed mould parts (copie and drag).

Description

MOULDING MACHINE FOR PRODUCING FLASKLESS MOULDS AND METHODS FOR OPERATING SAID MACHINE
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a moulding machine for producing flaskless moulds and methods for operating said machine of the kind set forth in the preamble of claims 1 , 4 and 8, respectively.
BACKGROUND ART
Different types of machines for producing flaskless moulds are e.g. described in EP- 0,468,355 and EP-0,122,116. Typically such moulding machines comprise a drag flask, a cope flask and a first and second squeeze plate associated with the cope and the drag flask, respectively. In order to be able to place a pattern plate between the cope and the drag flasks, and to remove said pattern plate after compacting the mould material, the flasks are mounted to be relatively movable towards and away from each other. For the compacting of the mould material in the flasks, means are provided to move the squeeze plates towards each other. The different movable components are guided in their relative movements, e.g. by guide columns.
In order to prevent distortion of the squeeze plates during the compacting of the mould material, e.g. in the form of a tilting movement, it is recommended that the patterns in the pattern plates be evenly distributed over the surfaces of the pattern plates. However, it is not always possible to provide such an even distribution of the patterns. Under such conditions the squeeze plates will be distorted due to high, unevenly distributed squeezing forces. This will result in distorted backsides of the produced moulds. When such moulds are pushed out of the cope and drag flasks, usually using the squeeze plate associated with the cope flask for moving the moulds down and using either the squeeze plate associated with the drag flask or a separate table for supporting the moulds and lowering thereof, the moulds will be tilted into alignment with the squeeze plate(s) and/or the separate table, said tilting causing a mismatch between the mould parts (cope and drag). DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
It is the object of the invention to provide a moulding machine and methods of operating said machine of the kind mentioned above, with which the above- mentioned disadvantages are compensated or alleviated. This is achieved by a machine of said kind, which according to the invention also comprises the features set forth in the characterizing clause of claim 1 , and a method of the kind set forth in the preamble of claim 4, which according to the invention also comprises features set forth in the characterizing clause of claim 4, and alternatively with a method of the kind set forth in the preamble of claim 8, which according to the invention also comprises the features set forth in the characterizing clause of claim 8. By providing tilting means for the squeeze plates and/or a separate table for receiving and lowering the superposed cope and drag, when they are discharged from the cope and drag flasks, it is possible to adjust these plates to correspond to possibly distorted surfaces of the moulds during the pushing out of the moulds, thereby avoiding the above-mentioned tilting movement of the moulds and the resulting mismatch between the mould parts.
The alternative mentioned in claim 8 uses the tilting means for pre-distorting the mould surfaces before compacting the mould material, whereby the resulting mould parts preferably achieve undistorted outer surfaces.
SHORT DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Figures 1-3 schematically show the distortion of moulds when using an unevenly distributed pattern and the resulting tilting movement during the pushing out of the mould parts,
Figure 4 shows an embodiment of the apparatus in accordance with the invention, in which the two squeeze plates are used for removing the moulds from the cope and drag flasks, and Figure 5 shows an alternative embodiment of the apparatus in accordance with the invention in which the squeeze plate associated with the cope flask is used for pushing out the mould parts and a separate table is provided for receiving and lowering the superposed mould parts.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Figure 1 schematically illustrates the tilting of the squeeze plates 5,6 during the step of compacting the mould material in the cope and drag flasks 3,4 when using a pattern plate 9 with unevenly distributed patterns. The tilting is highly exaggerated in Figures 1-3 in order to visualize the phenomenon.
After the squeezing, as illustrated in Figure 1 , the pattern plate is removed by moving the cope flask 3 and drag flask 4 away from each other and moving the pattern plate 9 away, whereupon the cope flask 3 and drag flask 4 are moved together as shown in Figure 2, thereby superposing the cope and drag. After this, the superposed cope and drag are pressed out of the cope and drag flasks 3,4, e.g. using the first squeeze plate 5 for pressing the superposed cope and drag down and using the second squeeze plate 6 or a separate table 14 for receiving and lowering the superposed cope and drag, as illustrated in Figure 2. By this pressing, the upper surface of the cope is first brought into alignment with the first squeeze plate 5, which is now undistorted due to the much lower forces applied during this step, and hereby the cope and drag are tilted as illustrated in Figure 2, which results in a mismatch between the cope and drag.
By the further downward movement of the cope and drag, these are eventually released from the cope and drag flasks 3,4 and a further tilting movement is induced when the drag comes to rest on the second squeeze plate 6 or the separate table 14 for receiving and lowering the superposed cope and drag, as illustrated in Figure 3. This tilting may induce further misalignment of the mould parts and possibly tear-off at the interface between the cope and drag.
In order to prevent the tilting movements described in connection with Figures 1-3, the moulding machine shown in Figure 4 is provided with means 7,8 for tilting the two squeeze plates 5,6 relative to the corresponding mounting means 1 ,2, whereby the two squeeze plates 5,6 can be aligned with the surfaces of the cope and drag before the pushing out of said superposed cope and drag. The tilting means 7,8 schematically shown in Figure 4 comprise hydraulic cylinders at each corner of the squeeze plates 5,6.
During the compacting step, schematically shown in Figure 1 , the hydraulic cylinders 7,8 are retracted in such a way that the corresponding squeeze plates 5,6 are supported on the cylinders 7,8, functioning as fixed stops, in such a way that the hydraulic system in said cylinders are not subjected to the compacting forces used during compacting.
After the compacting step, the two squeeze plates 5,6 are aligned with the outer surfaces of the cope and drag by means of the tilting means 7,8. When the tilting means comprise hydraulic cylinders 7,8 as shown in Figure 4, the alignment of the two squeeze plates 5,6 with the surfaces of the cope and drag can be performed by extending the pistons of the hydraulic cylinders 7,8 a certain distance and leaving the hydraulic connections to the cylinders open and moving the mounting constructions for the first and second squeeze plates 5,6 towards the surfaces of the cope and drag whereby hydraulic fluid will be pressed out of the cylinders 7,8 when the squeeze plates 5,6 come into contact with the surfaces of the cope and drag. After a certain movement of the mounting constructions 1 ,2, the hydraulic connec- tions to the cylinders 7,8 may be closed off, thereby locking the squeeze plates 5,6 in their tilted position and keeping this position during the push-out step. After completion of the push-out step, when the cope and drag are completely free of the cope and drag flasks 3,4, the hydraulic cylinders 7,8 are moved to their retracted neutral position thereby setting the tilts of the squeeze plates 5,6 to zero, whereafter the superposed cope and drag can be removed from the squeeze plate 6 supporting the superposed cope and drag in the usual way, e.g. as described in PCT/DK 99/00077 or EP-0,122,116 or EP-0,468,355.
The apparatus shown in Figure 5 functions in the same way as the apparatus shown in Figure 4, but uses a separate table 14 for receiving and lowering the superposed cope and drag and correspondingly, said separate table 14 is provided with tilting means 8 just as the squeeze plate 6 in the construction shown in Figure 4. Figure 5 shows the moving means 13 for moving the separate table 14 up and down. Due to the fact that the separate table 14 does not take part in the compacting, the above considerations regarding the provision of fixed stops for the tilting are not relevant for the tilting means 8 for the separate table 14.
In order to enable a tilting movement of the squeeze plates 5,6, the connection between the hydraulic cylinders 7,8 and the squeeze plates 5,6 is made flexible, e.g. by having a loose fitting between the piston and the squeeze plate.
The filling of the cope and drag flask 3,4 with mould material can be performed in different ways, e.g. as described in EP-0,122,116, where the cope and drag flasks 3,4 are in their horizontal position, as shown in Figures 1-5, or with the cope and drag flask 3,4 in a vertical position, as e.g. described in PCT/DK 99/00077 and in EP-0,468,355.
When the squeeze plates 5,6, as shown in Figure 4, are provided with tilting means 7,8, this gives a possibility of tilting the squeeze plates 5,6 before and during the filling of the cope and drag flasks 3,4 with moulding material, thereby pre-distorting the outer surfaces of the cope and drag, which can be used to minimize or even neutralize the distortion during compaction, as illustrated in Figure 1.
When using this method of pre-distortion, the pre-distortion tilting of the squeeze plates 5,6 may adaptively be adjusted in accordance with the resulting tilting of the surfaces of the cope and drag, whereby an adaptive minimizing of the resultant distortion can be achieved.
Although the invention above has been described in connection with embodiments, where the tilting means are present in the form of hydraulic cylinders 7,8, it is evident for a man skilled in the art that other tilting means may be used for providing the tilting of the squeeze plates and/or separate table. Furthermore, it is evident that an improvement relative to the situation illustrated in Figures 2 and 3 may be achieved by only tilting one of the squeeze plates 5,6 and/or the separate table 14.
