Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Wechseln der kompletten Schußhaube und/oder der Düsenplatte und zum Entfernen des Restsandes aus der Schußhaube an Kern- und Maskenschießmaschinen (siehe: DE-C-3 148 461).The invention relates to a device for changing the complete firing hood and / or the nozzle plate and for removing the residual sand from the firing hood on core and mask shooting machines (see: DE-C-3 148 461).

Der Wechsel der Schußhaube bzw. der Düsenplatte wird weitgehend in der Maschine über dem Werkzeugträger durchgeführt. Dadurch wird die Maschine verunreinigt. Die Zugänglichkeit ist nicht optimal und als Hilfsmittel können nur Hebezeuge, Gabelstapler etc. eingesetzt werden. Der zeitliche Aufwand ist sehr groß, die Maschine muß lange stillgelegt werden.The replacement of the firing hood or the nozzle plate is largely carried out in the machine above the tool carrier. This will contaminate the machine. Accessibility is not optimal and only hoists, forklifts, etc. can be used as aids. The time required is very large, the machine must be shut down for a long time.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, den Arbeitsablauf an einer Kern- und Maskenschießmaschine hinsichtlich des Wechsels der Schußhaube und/oder der Düsenplatte in wesentlicher Weise zu verbessern unter gleichzeitiger Entleerung des Restsandes aus der Schußhaube.The object of the invention is to improve the workflow on a core and mask shooting machine with regard to changing the firing hood and / or the nozzle plate in a substantial manner while simultaneously emptying the residual sand from the firing hood.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird durch die technische Lehre vermittelt, daß die Vorrichtung aus einem um eine vertikale Achse schwenkbaren Ausleger mit einem aufgebauten Hubaggregat mit zwei Lagerstellen und einem mechanischen Wendetrieb mit Wendekupplung zur Aufnahme und zum Drehen der mit der Düsenplatte verbundenen Schußhaube um eine theoretische horizontale Achse besteht.The solution to this problem is conveyed by the technical teaching that the device consists of a boom which can be pivoted about a vertical axis, with a built-up lifting unit with two bearing points and a mechanical reversing gear with reversing coupling for receiving and rotating the shot cap connected to the nozzle plate around a theoretical horizontal axis.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung für den schnellen Schußhauben- und/oder Düsenplattenwechsel eignet sich besonders in Verbindung mit einer modernen Kern- und Maskenschießmaschine, die mit einer schnellen Werkzeugwechselvorrichtung ausgerüstet ist. Der beim Wechsel anfallende Restsand wird vor dem Lösen der Düsenplatte aus der Schußhaube entfernt.The device according to the invention for the rapid replacement of the firing hood and / or nozzle plate is particularly suitable in connection with a modern core and mask shooting machine which is equipped with a quick tool changing device. The remaining sand from the change is removed from the firing hood before the nozzle plate is released.

Über eine Niveausonde im Schießaggregat wird vor dem Wechselvorgang der Sandnachlauf ins Magazin abgestoppt bzw. durch einen zusätzlichen Schußvorgang das Schießaggregat leergeschossen.The level of sand in the magazine is stopped by a level probe in the firing unit before the changing process or the shooting unit is shot empty by an additional firing process.

Danach wird die Wechselvorrichtung unterhalb des ausgefahrenen Schießaggregats eingeschwenkt und das Hubaggregat hochgefahren bis in seine Endstellung. Dann erfolgt eine Entkupplung mit der vom Schießaggregat verbundenen Schußhaube samt Düsenplatte. Das Hubaggregat mit der Schußhaube fährt nach unten ab und schwenkt um eine horizontale Achse zum Ausleeren des Restsandes, um anschließend wieder zurückgedreht und angehoben zu werden. Die Schußhaube wird am Schießaggregat befestigt, die Düsenplatte von der Schußhaube getrennt und die Düsenplatte mittels der gleichen Vorrichtung ausgetauscht.Then the changing device is swung in below the extended shooting unit and the lifting unit is raised to its end position. Then there is a decoupling with the shooting hood and nozzle plate connected by the shooting unit. The lifting unit with the firing hood moves downwards and swivels around a horizontal axis to empty the remaining sand and then be turned back and raised again. The shooting hood is attached to the shooting unit, the nozzle plate is separated from the shooting hood and the nozzle plate is replaced by the same device.

In der Zeichnung ist in Verbindung mit der Beschreibung eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung erläutert:
   Die Wechselvorrichtung 1 besteht aus einem um eine vertikale Achse 14 schwenkbaren Ausleger 4 mit dem pneumatisch oder hydraulisch zu betätigenden Hubaggregat bzw. der Hubstation 5, die mit zwei Lagerstellen 6 und einem Wendetrieb 7 mit Wendekupplung 8 ausgerüstet ist. Parallel zum Wechseln der Werkzeuge oder zum Schichtende wird das Schießaggregat 9 aus der Maschine herausgeschwenkt oder herausgefahren, wie es in der DE-PS 3 148 461 beschrieben ist.In the drawing, an embodiment of the invention is explained in connection with the description:
The changing device 1 consists of a boom 4 pivotable about a vertical axis 14 with the pneumatically or hydraulically actuated lifting unit or the lifting station 5, which is equipped with two bearing points 6 and a reversing gear 7 with a reversing coupling 8. Parallel to changing the tools or the end of the shift, the shooting unit 9 is pivoted out of the machine or moved out, as described in DE-PS 3 148 461.

Die Vorrichtung 1 wird unterhalb des aufgefahrenen Schießaggregats 9 mechanisch oder manuell eingeschwenkt und ausgefahren. Die Düsenplatte 2 ist mit zwei Lagerzapfen 11 und einem Kupplungsstück 12 ausgerüstet. Beim Auffahren bzw. beim Erreichen der Endstellung des Hubaggregats 5 legen sich die beiden Lagerzapfen 11 in die beiden Lagerstellen 6 und parallel fahren die beiden Kupplungsstücke 8, 12 ineinander.The device 1 is mechanically or manually pivoted in and extended below the opened shooting unit 9. The nozzle plate 2 is equipped with two bearing journals 11 and a coupling piece 12. When opening or when the end position of the lifting unit 5 is reached, the two bearing pins 11 lie in the two bearing points 6 and the two coupling pieces 8, 12 move parallel to one another.

Nach dem mechanischen Lösen der Verbindung zwischen Schießaggregat 9 und Schußhaube 10 fährt die Hubvorrichtung 5 mit der daraufliegenden Schußhaube 10 ab. Der Wendetrieb 7 kann nun die komplette Schußhaube 10 um eine horizontale Achse 15 drehen, so daß der sich darin befindliche Restsand in den Behälter 3 ausgeleert werden kann (Fig. 1, 3 und 4).After the mechanical release of the connection between the shooting unit 9 and the shooting hood 10, the lifting device 5 moves off with the shooting hood 10 lying thereon. The reversing gear 7 can now turn the complete firing hood 10 about a horizontal axis 15, so that the remaining sand therein can be emptied into the container 3 (FIGS. 1, 3 and 4).

Nachdem die Schußhaube 10 frei von Sand ist und in ihre Grundstellung zurückgedreht wurde, wird das Hubaggregat 5 aufgefahren. Danach kann die Schußhaube 10 wieder mechanisch am Schießaggregat 9 befestigt und danach die Düsenplatte 2 ausgetauscht werden. Hierzu wird die gleiche Vorrichtung 1 benutzt, lediglich der Wendetrieb 7 ist inaktiv.After the shooting hood 10 is free of sand and has been turned back into its basic position, the lifting unit 5 is raised. Then the shooting hood 10 can be mechanically fastened again to the shooting unit 9 and then the nozzle plate 2 can be replaced. The same device 1 is used for this, only the reversing gear 7 is inactive.

Der alternative Ersatz gilt auch für den Wechsel der Düsenplatte 2. Die mechanischen Verbindungen zwischen Düsenplatte 2 und Schußhaube 10 werden gelöst, das Hubaggregat 5 mit der daraufliegenden Düsenplatte 2 wird abgefahren. Nach dem horizontalen Wegschwenken der Vorrichtung 1, weg vom Schußaggregat 9, ist die Zugänglichkeit zur Düsenplatte 2 gewährleistet. Die Düsenplatte 2 kann gegen eine neue ausgetauscht werden (Fig. 2 und 6).The alternative replacement also applies to changing the nozzle plate 2. The mechanical connections between the nozzle plate 2 and the firing hood 10 are released, the lifting unit 5 with the nozzle plate 2 lying thereon is moved down. After the device 1 has been pivoted away horizontally, away from the firing unit 9, access to the nozzle plate 2 is ensured. The nozzle plate 2 can be exchanged for a new one (FIGS. 2 and 6).

Die optimale Zugänglichkeit ist in dieser Stellung gewährleistet. Danach erfolgt das Zurückschwenken unterhalb des Schießaggregats 9 mit anschließendem Hubvorgang gegen dasselbe sowie die nachfolgende mechanische Verbindung zwischen Düsenplatte 2 und Schußhaube 10.Optimal accessibility is guaranteed in this position. Then the pivoting back takes place below the shooting unit 9 with a subsequent lifting operation against the same and the subsequent mechanical connection between the nozzle plate 2 and the shooting hood 10.

Dadurch wird erreicht, daß der anfallende Restsand in einen Behälter 3 oder auf ein Abtransportband gezielt ausgekippt und nicht die Maschine verschmutzt wird bzw. durch die Vorrichtung ist ein schneller Wechsel der Düsenplatte möglich (Fig. 3 und Fig. 4)This ensures that the remaining sand is dumped into a container 3 or on a conveyor belt and the machine is not soiled or the device enables the nozzle plate to be changed quickly (FIGS. 3 and 4)
