A mould assembly comprises a first ( 1 ) and a second mould part ( 2 ) said mould assembly further comprising a hinge mechanism optionally detachably connected to the two mould parts. The hinge mechanism has at least a first ( 5 ) and a second hinge axis ( 6 ) connected by means of at least one connectina arm and extending with a mutual distance substantially parallel to the two mould parts ( 1, 2 ) in the longitudinal direction of the mould so that the mould parts ( 1, 2 ) are pivotable with respect to each other between a first, open position, where the two mould parts ( 1, 2 ) are located adjacent each other with a mutual distance and with the openings of the two mould parts ( 1, 2 ) facing substantially upwards, and a second position, where the first mould part ( 1 ) is rotated around the first hinge axis ( 5 ) by means of a first drive means ( 7 ) so that the opening of said first mould part faces substantially to the side and towards the second mould part ( 2 ), and a third position, where the first mould part ( 1 ) is further rotated around the second hinge axis ( 6 ) by means of a second drive means ( 8 ) so that the opening of said first mould part faces substantially downward towards the opening of the second mould part ( 2 ).
