Abstract

A semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die includes a die body. The die body includes a male die and a female die, a cavity formed by the male die and the female die, a runner communicated with the cavity and a sprue communicated with the runner are provided inside the die body. An inner wall of the runner is provided with a plurality of guide protrusions which are arranged in a spiral track. The guide protrusions combine the inner wall of the runner to form a special-shaped pipeline for molten metal to flow through, and a cooling mechanism arranged around the runner is further provided in the die body.

Claims

1. A semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die, comprising a die body, wherein the die body comprises a male die and a female die;

provided inside the die body are a cavity formed by the male die and the female die, a runner communicated with the cavity and a sprue communicated with the runner, and an inner wall of the runner is provided with a plurality of guide protrusions arranged in a spiral track, the guide protrusions and the inner wall of the runner form a profiled pipeline for molten metal to flow through, and a cooling mechanism arranged around the runner is further provided in the die body.

2. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 1, wherein the runner comprises multiple runners, and two ends of each of the runners are respectively communicated with the sprue and the cavity.

3. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 2, wherein a confluence cavity communicated with the cavity is provided in the die body, and the two ends of each of the runners are respectively communicated with the sprue and the confluence cavity.

4. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 2, wherein the runners are arranged side by side, and a number of the runners is not less than two.

5. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 2, wherein the runners are arranged at equal intervals circumferentially around one straight line, and a number of the runners is not less than three.

6. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 2, wherein the cooling mechanism is a spiral channel around each of the runners, and two ends of the cooling mechanism are communicated with an external cooling water circulation conveying device.

7. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 2, wherein a plurality of lines are provided in the inner wall of each runner, and each of the lines is circumferentially arranged along the inner wall of the runner or arranged as a thread line along the inner wall of the runner.

8. The semi-solid metal in-cavity molding die according to claim 2, wherein a runner component is detachably mounted in the die body, and each of the runners is included in the runner component.
