APPARATUS FOR CASTING CONDUCTOR OF ROTOR OF INDUCTION MOTOR

摘要

A rotor core (12) of a squirrel-cage rotor of an induction motor is housed in a recess (14) of a mold (18) of a conductor casting apparatus (10). A composite cylinder device (68) is fixed on the upper side of the mold (18) or on the side remoter from the pouring gate thereof, and the rotor core 12 is held in a predetermined position in the recess 14 by means of one piston (70). The other piston (72) locally pressurizes a molten metal that fills an end-connector ring cavity (66) defined between the rotor core (12) and the recess (14) on the side remoter from the pouring gate. <IMAGE>
