A securing device comprising at least one latch ( 22 ) and at least one latch mating-element ( 26 ) are used on two mutually displaceable mold-casing segments ( 14, 16 ) to close or open a mold casing ( 10 ) used in manufacturing molded bodies, in particular concrete pipes, said device securing the mold casing ( 10 ) in a position of manufacture. The latch ( 22 ) is displaceable by means of a drive unit ( 24 ) between a locked position wherein it locks up with a latch mating-element ( 26 ) and an unlocked position wherein no locking takes place between the latch ( 22 ) and the latch mating-element ( 26 ). In the invention, the drive unit ( 24 ) can be adjusted due to relative motions between the mold casing on one hand and its manufacturing environment on the other as determined by the manufacturing procedures between a ready-to-unlock position corresponding to the locked position of the latch ( 22 ) and a ready-to-lock position corresponding to the locked position. |
