摘要

"Device to support the ladle for the free-fall casting of molten metal in shells" Device to support the cup (11) or ladle for the free-fall casting of molten metal in shells, equipped with a wrist (10) with a fixed part (12), where the device comprises a rotating shaft (15). The device comprises a sensor (19) to measure the amount of molten metal in the ladle by measuring the flexion of the shaft (15) caused by the presence of metal in the same ladle. The sensor is able to measure the differences in movement between a fairing (17) joined laterally to a fixed part (12) and a stretch of the shaft (15).
