The invention relates to a mould for producing cast parts, having two mould parts which are in the form of mould plates and are movable in relation to one another from an open position into a closed position, wherein the mould parts in their closed position define a mould cavity that is fillable with liquid casting mass, and in their open position allow the removal of a cast part solidified in particular by at least partial cooling, and are lockable and pivotable in the closed position by means of a locking device releasably connecting the two mould parts, wherein, in the closed position, the locking device locks the mould plates with the proviso that the locking pressure is maintained. The locking device has an energy store having a gas compression spring for maintaining the closing pressure pressing the mould plates together after the mould plates have been pressed together. |
