Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To smoothly release a center core 17 having inner members 19 and outer members 20 freely slidably supported via taper surfaces 19a on both flanks thereof by averting the interference with the bottom wall of the space part 5 of a product P. SOLUTION: The outer members 20 and side cores arranged on both flanks thereof are brought into abutment on each other slidably via inclined step parts 20c tapered to a direction reverse from the tapered surfaces 19a. When the inner members 19 of the center core 17 are withdrawn from the space part 5 of the product P, a pair of the outer members 20 freely slidably supported at the tapered surfaces 19a of the inner members 19 move in a direction where the outer members approach each other and the outer members 20 release from the space part 5 of the product P but at this time a pair of the outer members 20 move near to each while the outer members move diagonally downward while being guided by the inclined step parts 20c. Then, even if the bottom wall of the space part 5 of the product P curves, the front ends of the outer members 20 interfere with the bottom wall 5 and the occurrence of galling may be surely prevented.

2. Description of the Related Art When a piston for an internal combustion engine having a bag-shaped space therein is cast by gravity die casting, a core for forming the space is disposed inside a main mold.
If the core is formed as an integral body, the core cannot be released from the piston due to the presence of the undercut. Therefore, a split core divided into a plurality of members is employed. As an example of such a split core, a pair of side cores is disposed on both side surfaces of the center core, and a five-divided core in which the center core includes a central inner member and a pair of outer members disposed on both side surfaces thereof. Are known.

First, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 12, the gravity casting mold is clamped. In the gravity-casting mold in the clamped state, the left and right main dies 11L and 11R for forming the ring land portion 2 and the skirt portions 3 and 3 of the piston P are close to each other and fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the mold ring 26. The top core 15, which forms the top surface 1 of the piston P, descends and fits into the upper openings of the main dies 11L, 11R.

The left and right side cores 16L, 16R and the center core 17, which form the space 5 in the piston P, are located at the rising end with their upper ends flush with each other. Thereafter, the molten metal is poured through the plan portion cavity connected to the cavity for forming the piston P, and is held until solidification is completed and the mold can be released.

Subsequently, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 12,
With the ring land portion 2 of the piston P chucked, the inner member 19 of the center core 17 sandwiched between the left and right side cores 16L, 16R is lowered together with the center core holder 21. When the inner member 19 of the center core 17 descends, the tapered surface 1 of the inner member 19
The outer members 20, 20 that engage with the dovetail grooves 19b, 19b of the outer cores 9a, 19a attempt to approach each other, but the inclined steps 20c, 20c of the outer members 20, 20 are inclined to the inclined steps 16c, 16c of the side cores 16L, 16R. , The pair of outer members 20 and 20 cannot move in the horizontal direction and approach each other, and
L and 16R approach each other while moving diagonally downward along the inclined steps 16c and 16c.

At this time, the inclination angle α of the inclined steps 16c, 16c of the side cores 16L, 16R and the inclined steps 20c, 20c of the outer members 20, 20 is determined by the pair of recesses 5b, 5c of the space 5 of the piston P. Since the inclination angles are set to be larger than the inclination angles β and γ, the outer members 20 and 20
Moves obliquely downward without interfering with the recesses 5b, 5c of the piston P, and the undercut portions 20a, 20a of the outer members 20, 20 are separated from the inner wall surface of the space 5 of the piston P (FIG. 12). Thus, when the gravity casting mold is opened, galling of the bottom wall of the space 5 of the piston P due to the upper ends of the outer members 20 and 20 can be reliably prevented.
