DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an improved wheel casting mold cavity exhaust device of the embodiment includes a bottom mold 1, a side mold 2, a top mold 3, an upper exhaust pin 4 and a lower exhaust pin 5; a boss 11 is provided on the bottom mold 1 corresponding to the window molding part of a wheel, a groove cavity 31 corresponding to the boss 11 is machined on the top mold 3, the profiles of the boss 11 and the groove cavity 31 do not contact with each other and have a clearance of 0.2-0.5 mm, casting burrs are easily formed if the clearance is too large, and the exhaust effect is influenced if the clearance is too small; a step hole is machined on the boss 11 of the bottom mold, and the lower exhaust pin 5 is installed in the hole and connected with a mold body by spot welding or by a bolt; a step hole is also drilled in the groove cavity 31 of the top mold, and the upper exhaust pin 4 is installed in the hole and connected with the mold body by spot welding or by a bolt; the quantity of the exhaust pin is determined according to the size of the window, and is generally 1-5; the upper exhaust pin 4 and the lower exhaust pin 5 are designed as a cylinder structure facilitating installation, and the part protruding the profile of the mold shall be polished to be smooth so as not to influence mold assembly; generally 4-6 flaky exhaust lines 51 are cut at the working parts of the upper exhaust pin 4 and the lower exhaust pin 5, and have the widths of 0.2-0.4 mm, thus ensuring the exhaust effect; vent grooves 6 distributed divergently are machined on the profile of each of the boss 11 and the cavity 31 by taking the exhaust pin as a center, the vent grooves 6 have depths of 0.5-1 mm and included angles of 60-90, and the tail ends of the vent grooves 6 extend to the edge; two active exhaust channels are formed in the above design: I, mold cavity-groove cavity-upper exhaust pin-air, and II, mold cavity-boss-lower exhaust pin-air, so that the channel area of air exhaust of the mold cavity is enlarged, the exhaust effect is strengthened, and a clean mold cavity environment is provided for mold filling and solidification of molten aluminum.

[0017] By designing double structures of exhaust grooves and exhaust pins on the top mold and the bottom mold, active exhaust of the mold cavity is realized, the smoothness of air circulation is improved, the airproof area is eliminated, the defects easily occurring in a casting, such as oxide inclusions, air holes and the like, are overcome, the yield is greatly improved, and high-quality production of wheels is ensured.

[0018] The foregoing descriptions of specific exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been presented for purposes of illustration and description. They are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed, and obviously many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teachings. The exemplary embodiments were chosen and described in order to explain certain principles of the invention and their practical application, to thereby enable others skilled in the art to make and utilize various exemplary embodiments of the present invention, as well as various alternatives and modifications thereof. It is intended that the scope of the invention be defined by the Claims appended hereto and their equivalents.
