Definitions
- the positioning accuracy of the sand cores plays a decisive role in the dimensional precision of the parts molded in metal mold, since it affects most of the interior shapes of the molded part and some of the exterior shapes. More precisely and by way of example, in the case of the molding of cylinder heads of thermal engines for motor vehicles, important engine functions are directly linked to the positioning of the cores: this is the case with intake or exhaust pipes or pipes , completely made by coring, and whose positioning accuracy has a direct influence on engine performance (power, consumption, polluting emissions, etc.)
- the interaction between the cores and the metal mold elements poses problems which run counter to the control of dimensional positioning.
- the cores are generally made from a mixture of sand (most often silica) of well-defined particle size and organic chemical binders which ensure the cohesion and resistance of the core.
- binders are conventionally hardened according to two main families of coreing processes, namely the so-called “cold box” technique (that is to say thanks to the intervention of a gaseous chemical catalyst) and the so-called “hot box” technique (that is to say thanks to the intake of calories by the core box itself brought to temperature).
- the cores evolve in a similar manner during casting.
- the core binders begin to decompose and emit gaseous residues.
- the chamber profile is generally produced by a cooled metal mold element which locally accelerates the cooling of the aluminum during its solidification. , and in doing so locally refining its microstructure and increasing its properties (mechanical resistance, resistance to fatigue when hot and cold, elongation at break, etc.) It is on this cooled metallic element that the cores intended to form these conduits come to bear.
- the accumulation of scale on the contact surface of the metal mold element shifts the duct cores, and disturbs the positioning accuracy, with the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the present invention aims to overcome these limitations of the state of the art.
- equipment for molding foundry parts in particular of cylinder heads of combustion engines for vehicles, in a mold with at least one sand core, in which the positioning of the or each core is achieved by cooperation of the core with a mold element, in particular a metallic mold element, characterized in that at least one core has an insert secured to the core during the production of said core and by means of which said core is capable of coming to cooperate with the metallic mold element considered.
- the molding equipment according to the invention are as follows: the or each insert has one or more sealing appendages capable of being trapped in the mass of the core or cores during the production of that here or these.
- At least two cores have a common insert provided with as many sealing appendages.
- the cooperation between the or each insert and the associated metallic mold element is a cooperation of shapes defining a support in at least one direction of space.
- the cooperation of shapes between the or each insert and the associated metallic mold element defines a support in two directions in space.
- the cooperation of shapes between the or each insert and the associated metallic mold element defines a support in three directions of space.
- the cooperation of shapes between the or each insert and the associated metallic mold element defines a setting in at least one direction of space transverse to a main direction of support of the insert.
- the equipment includes a set of cores made in one piece and to which are secured a plurality of inserts capable of cooperating with the same metallic mold element, and the different inserts provide different supports and / or wedges in the three directions from space.
- the cores are cores of intake pipes from a cylinder head of a multi-cylinder engine.
- the present invention provides a method for positioning a core in a mold for the production of a foundry piece comprising at least one cavity defined by the location of the core, such as a combustion engine cylinder head produced made of aluminum alloy, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: a metal insert is produced comprising at least one bearing surface able to cooperate with an element of the mold, and at least one element for anchoring with the core , the core is produced in a core box in which the insert has been previously placed in a predetermined position, so that an end region of the core anchors said insert at the level of the anchoring element or elements.
- -ci and the core provided with its insert is placed in the mold, in a predetermined position by the cooperation of the bearing surface or surfaces of the insert with said mold element.
- aspects of the process according to the invention are as follows: - The predetermined position of the insert in the core box is determined by the cooperation of the support surface (s) of said insert with a support part of the core box. - The step of making the core includes making two cores to which a common insert is anchored.
- the insert is made by metal molding under pressure.
- the core is an intake pipe core.
- the core is produced by the cold box technique.
- FIG. 1 is a view in longitudinal section of an equipment for molding a cylinder head
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view, diagrammatically, of the same equipment
- FIG. 3 is a view in cross-section, with enlarged scale, of a detail of the equipment according to the invention
- FIG. 4 is a view in longitudinal section of the detail of FIG. 3.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 there is illustrated the conventional embodiment of a cylinder head CL by gravity casting in a mold essentially composed of a cooled metal soleplate S, yokes C and drawers T at the ends, these drawers coming to close the mold perpendicular to the yokes C.
- the interior shapes include cavities formed by the cores of intake pipes Na, exhaust pipes Nech, water circulation Ne, oil circulation and roof Nht (see in particular Figure 2), the latter core also making the weights which supply the part with liquid metal during solidification.
- the mold is supplied with liquid metal from below using the usual gravity casting technique for this type of part, by an SA attack system (FIG. 1).
- the cylinder head here is a cylinder head with four-cylinder engine, 16 valves, direct injection diesel.
- the precision of the positioning of the intake pipes determined by the precision of the positioning of the corresponding cores, is essential for controlling engine performance.
- the mold-part-casting appendage assembly is shown diagrammatically as a whole in FIG. 1.
- each pair of intake pipes is provided with metal inserts of ends I, as illustrated diagrammatically in FIG. 2 and in more detail in the enlarged views of FIGS. 3 and 4.
- FIG. by a section longitudinal, the fact that the insert I of Figure 3 actually connects two intake pipes, and illustrates in conjunction with Figure 3 the guidance and supports made by this insert.
- the essential object of the presence of insert I is to put the metal mold element in contact no longer with the core directly, but with the core by means of this insert, secured to the core, and if necessary by a or several other inserts, in particular another insert at the opposite end of the core. It will be noted in this regard that the number and arrangement of the inserts will depend essentially on the configuration of the core and on the precision required for its positioning.
- the body 10 of the insert incorporates shapes capable of guiding and positioning it, and therefore that of the core, in generally complementary shapes provided on or in the metal mold element located opposite (here the sole S), as will be seen in detail below;
- the insert is designed in such a way that it ensures the contact surface between the core of which it is integral and the metallic mold element opposite so that the scale due to the hot degradation of the core does not disturb the positioning of the core provided with its or its inserts on the metal element;
- the shape of the insert I is chosen so that it can be easily produced, for example by a metal molding process, in particular of aluminum under pressure, by choosing a material compatible with the alloy of the part to be molded, and which in particular does not pose any problem of compatibility with reflow; - in addition, whatever the production method chosen for the insert (s), it is preferable to define all the shapes and surfaces for guiding and bearing on the same element of the tool (typically the same mold element) of the inserts. This avoids unwanted mutual shifts in these shapes and surfaces, which could be the case in particular if some of them were obtained by drawers whose positioning during molding is not always guaranteed with good precision.
- each insert is able to define a precise positioning of the associated core by cooperating with the metal mold element according to surfaces defining supports along each of the x, y and z axes.
- the body 10 of the insert is received in a generally complementary cavity 20 formed in the sole S, and has on its underside a cavity 12 of generally parallelepiped shape in which a generally complementary protuberance is fitted. 211 (with clearances - minimal - close) projecting from the bottom of the cavity 20.
- the insert has, in the vicinity of its cavity 12, a bearing surface 123 capable of coming into contact with the bottom surface of the cavity 20 of the sole, so as to position the insert and the core. along the z axis.
- FIG. 4 in particular illustrates other arrangements, namely 121, 122, 124 on the insert side and 212 on the sole side, which can also intervene for the correct positioning of the insert.
- the inserts ordered from 1 to 5 (one per cylinder), can cooperate with cavities formed in the sole S according to the guides and the following supports: insert 1 according to y and z insert 2 according to z insert 3 according to x, y and z insert 4 according to z insert 5 according to y and z
- the roof core here presses directly along the z axis on half of the intake pipes (see Figure 2), which guarantees the z support of the inserts and in doing so of all the pipe cores Na admission. It will be noted here that one could also, if necessary, provide inserts at the upper ends of the Na nuclei.
- Each insert I is produced by a pressure foundry.
- the coreing process here is the so-called “cold box” process, and characterized in this case by a proportion of resin of 1% and by a silica sand with a grain size of 55 AFS.
- the cylinder heads are here molded in gravity with a standard alloy of type AS7U3G, of composition:
- the casting temperature (measured in the holding furnace) is 740 ° C.
- the sole S is water-cooled.
- the rate of casting is 7 to 8 pieces / hour.
- the guidance by insert (s) produced according to the invention makes it possible to obtain on a casting of 30 consecutive cylinder heads from a day manufacturing a positioning of the ends of intake ducts (measured on parts after cooling, sanding, elimination of the counterweighting systems and metal feed and inserts) characterized by a standard deviation less than or equal to 0.1 mm in the three directions of space x, y and z.
- the same cylinder head mounted according to the same principles and with the same alloy, but with direct guidance of the intake pipe cores in the metal soleplate, provides precision in positioning in x, y and z which are best understood between 0.20 and 0.25 mm.
- the rate of molding due to the regular maintenance of the mold during manufacture drops from about 5% to 10% compared to the example according to the invention.
