Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a casting machine according to the preamble of the independent claims 1 and 4 .
  • the objective of the present invention is to create a casting machine, by which the foundry ladle can be guided purely mechanically on curved paths and can optimally perform a tilting movement.
  • Another objective of the invention comprises that the suspension of the foundry ladle is provided such that an easy exchange of the empty foundry ladle for a full one is enabled.
  • the unilateral suspension of the foundry ladle at a control cam using two pairs of roller paths namely an interior one and an exterior one
  • the foundry ladle can be rotated together with the control cam around said axis and can be lowered for the transfer to a transportation device, which removes empty foundry ladles and feeds new ones.
  • performance of both the lifting and the lowering movement as well as the tilting movement by a single drive is also achieved.
  • FIG. 1 a is a layout of a casting box conveyer having four casting boxes and a casting machine in the casting position and in the exchange position,
  • FIG. 1 b is a side view of a casting machine
  • FIG. 1 c is a view of the casting machine from the front
  • FIG. 1 d is a partial layout of the casting machine after the foundry ladle has swiveled out around the axis A,
  • FIG. 2 is a side view of the control cam of the carrying car and the foundry ladle set down in front of it, in dot-dash lines, and in a raised position for the tilting movement,
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the control cam and of the foundry ladle suspended from the carrying car
  • FIG. 4 is a top view of the casting machine according to FIG. 2 .
  • FIG. 5 is a side view of the control cam of the carrying car and the foundry ladle in front of it in a raised position and in a position at the beginning of the casting process, and
  • FIG. 6 is a side view of the control cam of the carrying car and the foundry ladle in the position at the beginning of the casting process and in the position at the end of the casting process in a maximally tilted position.
  • a casting machine according to the invention is indicated with reference number 1 , which is arranged in front of casting boxes 3 .
  • the casting machine 1 can be locally fixed or preferably be movable on conveyers 7 as well, in the latter case in order to be able to follow the casting boxes during the casting process, for increasing productivity.
  • the foundry ladle 9 is discernible in a swiveled position. In this position, the foundry ladle 9 can be set to the floor and removed by a transportation device.
  • a new foundry ladle 9 i.e. one filled with new melt, can be accepted by the casting device 1 .
  • a pivotal axis A is discernible, which allows the pivoting of the foundry ladle 9 from the casting position into the set down and exchange position.
  • the primary parts of the casting machine 1 are described.
  • the foundry ladle 9 with the spout 11 and the spout stone 13 arranged therein are discernible.
  • receiving holders 15 with catching slots 17 are discernible.
  • the receiving holders 15 serve to allow the transportation of the foundry ladle 9 via a transportation device.
  • holding devices 19 are mounted (compare FIG. 4 ) here, from which the foundry ladle 9 can be suspended from a holding plate 21 on an carrying car 23 .
  • the holding disks 20 are arranged, which engage the holding means 19 from the bottom.
  • the carrying car 23 comprises two pairs of rollers, namely an upper pair of rollers 25 and a lower pair of rollers 27 .
  • the upper pair of rollers 25 run on the upper roller path 29 ; the lower pair of rollers 27 runs on the lower roller path 31 (also compare FIG. 2 .)
  • the upper roller path 29 is on an upper control cam 33 ; the lower roller path 31 on a lower control cam 35 ( FIG. 2 .)
  • the movement process of the foundry ladle is described from the time of accepting a ladle filled with melt to the setting down of the emptied ladle 9 .
  • the ladle 9 is shown set down onto the floor 37 .
  • the foundry ladle 9 raised by the distance z.
  • the lower pair of rollers 27 run along the linearly extending path sections 39 and the upper pair of rollers 25 along the upper, also linearly extending path sections 41 .
  • Both pairs of rollers 25 , 27 are now located at the upper end of the linear path sections 39 , 41 , and run in two intermediate sections, namely an upper intermediate section 43 of the upper roller path 29 and a lower section 45 of the lower roller path 31 .
  • These two intermediate sections 43 , 45 cause the lowering of the spout 11 by about the distance y and simultaneously displace the spout 11 by the distance x, due to the narrow radii embodied at the upper intermediate section 43 , in particular. This leads to a displacement of the spout 11 from point C to point B (cf. FIG. 5 ).
  • the pairs of rollers 25 , 27 continue to travel further on the above tilting roller path sections 47 , 49 , preferably comprising a constant radius, and pivot the foundry ladle 9 from a position shown at the bottom of FIG. 6 to the position shown at the top of FIG. 6 .
  • the tilting angle amounts to the angle alpha ( FIG. 6 .)
  • the carrying car 23 returns to the starting position, subsequently the carrying car 23 pivots counter-clockwise around a vertical axis A by approx. 90° (cf. FIGS. 1 a and 1 d .) Now, the carrying car 23 with the empty foundry ladle 9 rolls downwards until the latter rests on the floor 37 .
  • the holding disks 20 move out of the holding plate 21 so that the casting machine 1 can move forward and reverse on the conveyer 7 and can accept, lift, and pivot the next foundry ladle 9 , filled with melt, and continue the casting process.
  • the set down, empty foundry ladle 9 is picked up by a transportation device, such as a forklift, crane, or the like, and is replaced by a new, filled foundry ladle 9 .
  • the pivot axis A can support the control cams 33 , 35 and, thus, it can be connected to them or the axes can be arranged between the carrying car 23 and the holding plate 21 (not shown.)
