Mixed raw sand
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of casting, and particularly relates to mixed raw sand.
Background
Casting is the foundation of the equipment manufacturing industry. Clay sand mold casting is the main body of the casting and forming process, and sodium silicate sand casting is one of the three casting and forming processes. The raw sand plays an important role in clay sand mold casting or sodium silicate sand casting production. At present, the raw sand for clay sand mold casting or water glass sand casting mainly comprises quartz raw sand and non-quartz raw sand.
Quartzite raw sand is the most commonly used raw sand in foundry production. The source is wide, the price is low, and the requirements of iron castings and steel castings production can be generally met. But also has a plurality of defects, which are easy to cause casting infiltration and sintering defects, expansion defects, serious diseases such as silicosis of workers and the like.
Limestone raw sand is also non-quartz raw sand which is more applied in casting production. The resources are rich, the harm of silicosis can be greatly reduced, the casting is not sintered, sand is easy to clean, and the defect of expansion is not easy to generate. However, the limestone sand is decomposed to generate gas during pouring, so that the casting is subjected to air holes, and the casting is easy to have quality problems such as shrinkage and wormcast cracking. In addition, there is a problem of CO poisoning.
At present, in the clay sand casting or sodium silicate sand casting production all over the world, quartz sand and limestone sand are usually used separately, and the defects are inherent and exist simultaneously.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the technical problem of providing mixed raw sand to overcome the defect caused by adopting single raw sand for clay sand mold casting or sodium silicate sand casting in the prior art, and the invention can fully exert the advantages of various raw sands.
The invention provides mixed raw sand which consists of quartz sand and limestone sand, wherein the weight ratio of the quartz sand to the limestone sand is as follows: (81-99.8)% (0.2-19)%, and the mixed raw sand is used for clay sand casting or sodium silicate sand casting.
Preferably, in the mixed raw sand, the weight ratio of the quartz sand to the limestone sand is (81-98)% (2-19)%.
Preferably, in the mixed raw sand, the limestone sand includes various fine particles prepared by crushing and screening ore rocks with limestone as a main component.
Preferably, in the mixed raw sand, the particle size of the mixed raw sand after mixing and screening is 40-270 meshes.
Preferably, in the mixed crude sand, the mixed crude sand is used for producing castings.
Advantageous effects
The mixed raw sand is used for casting production of clay sand or sodium silicate sand, and can obtain the following beneficial effects:
a. and (5) casting quality. Not only can eliminate the sintering defects and the expansion defects of the castings and improve the difficulty of sand cleaning, but also can solve the problems of air holes, shrinkage and the like of the castings.
b. The labor and the sanitation. Not only can prevent silicosis problem of workers, but also can prevent CO poisoning problem.
c. The production cost is low. Can keep the advantages of wide resource sources and low cost of the two.

Example 1
Taking 2000Kg of quartz sand and 100Kg of limestone sand, and uniformly mixing in a sand mixer to produce sand, thereby obtaining the mixed raw sand. The gas forming amount of the mixed raw sand at the test temperature of 1000 ℃ is 10.5ml/g, which is higher than that of pure quartz sand but far lower than that of pure limestone sand.
Putting 1000Kg of mixed raw sand into a sand mixer, adding 7% of bentonite and 4.0% of water, mixing well, and discharging sand for later use. Manually molding by using mixed wet-type mixed sand, then stripping, and pouring a gray iron piece after mold combination. The surface of the casting is easy to remove sand, and the casting has no defects (as shown in figure 1).
Example 2
2000Kg of quartz sand and 300Kg of limestone sand are taken and mixed evenly in a sand mixer to produce sand, thus obtaining the mixed raw sand. The gas forming amount of the mixed raw sand at the test temperature of 1000 ℃ is 28.2ml/g, which is higher than that of pure quartz sand but far lower than that of pure limestone sand.
Putting 1000Kg of mixed raw sand into a sand mixer, adding 7% of bentonite and 3.2% of water, mixing well, and discharging sand for later use. And molding and pouring the ductile iron piece on a vertical parting molding line by using the mixed wet-mold mixed sand. The surface of the casting is easy to remove sand, and the casting has no defects (as shown in figure 2).
