Impeller for supercharger and method of manufacturing the same

[Problems]To provide a lost-wax cast impeller for a supercharger having no parting line corresponding part on a hub surface and a blade surface in each space demarcated by pairs of long blades adjacent to each other and having excellent aerodynamic performance. [Means for Solving Problems]This method of manufacturing the impeller comprises a step for forming a lost form pattern formed in the substantially same shape as the impeller for the supercharger, a step for forming a mold by eliminating and removing the lost form pattern after the lost form pattern is coated with a refractory, and a step for pouring a molten metal in the mold for casting. In the step for molding the lost form pattern, a lost material is injection-molded in a space demarcated by radially arranging, toward a center shaft, a plurality of slide molds having short blade-shaped bottomed groove parts and space shapes between the pairs of long blades adjacent to each other, and the slide molds are released by moving in the radial direction of the center shaft while rotating. Thus, the parting line corresponding part is not present on any of the hub surface and the blade surface in the spaces demarcated by the pairs of long blades adjacent to each other.

Method and apparatus for creating sacrificial patterns and cast parts

A process and apparatus for casting three-dimensional parts and sacrificial models from a class of casting compounds which incorporate one or more radiation activated photo initiators which cause polymerization of the casting compound causing it to solidify or transition from a solid in a first state to a solid more suitable for use as a sacrificial model in a lost wax casting process. The class of casting compounds include, 1) compounds which act as conduits for the polymerization initiating radiation during and/or after hardening and 2) compounds which are hardened by a radiation induced chain reaction throughout the body of fluid casting compound. These compounds allow the part being cast to be cured within transparent molds that are supported by transparent mold frames. The apparatus consists of a radiation source positioned to irradiate the casting compound within a mold cavity through the mold frame and mold wall to effect the polymerization, solidifying, process. Separation of the molded part from the mold is enabled by the relative flexibility between the part and mold cavity walls. This is a function of using a soft, flexible material for the mold body and/or a polymerization process which caused the casting compound the solidify into a soft, flexible object. When the polymerized cast part is at least partially removed from the mold, it may be subjected to additional radiation of a frequency different form that initially applied the cause the solid cast part to transition to a hard or ridged part having properties more suitable for a model which is to be used as a sacrificial model in a lost wax process. An automated casting system is anticipated which is enabled by the use of very soft, stretchable and deformable material for the mold body and supporting the mold with radiation transparent mold frames. Oxygen and other gases in the atmosphere react with some casting compounds to create a sticky film on mold cavity walls which causes difficulty when removing a casting from a mold. This problem is eliminated by purging the mold cavity with an inert gas between casts.

Copolymer based powdered material for selective laser sintering and preparation method thereof

InactiveCN101319075AFormed parts with high strengthHigh dimensional accuracyVitrificationSelective laser sintering
The invention discloses a multipolymer base powder material used for SLS and a preparation method thereof. The multipolymer is a styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) multipolymer. The preparation method comprises the following steps that: firstly, an SAN resin is subjected to deep cooling and crushing; secondly, the multipolymer powder with appropriate grain diameter and appropriate distribution of the grain diameter is selected by the sieve method; and finally, a certain proportion of the multipolymer powder, carbon soot and a flow aid are mixed evenly to produce the multipolymer base powder material. Because the SAN is an amorphous polymer, the vitrification temperature is low and the die shrinkage is small; therefore, the multipolymer base powder material has good sintering performance and high drip molding accuracy. Meanwhile, the SAN has appropriate melt viscosity and body intensity; therefore, the SLS die molding of the multipolymer base powder material also has high intensity. The multipolymer base powder material can be used to manufacture a wax pattern used for lost wax casting and a functional element meeting general requirements through SLS forming and appropriate post treatment.
