Inclining molten metal charging apparatus for forced cooling casting.

摘要

An inclining molten metal charging apparatus for forced cooling casting which includes a fixed frame (14); an inclining frame (15) pivotally supported by the fixed frame and reciprocatingly inclined at a predetermined angle; a stool (1) having positioned on and fitted thereon a casting mold (9), a plurality chillers used for directional solidification and a tubular member (12) internally chilled as a functional component such as a bolt fastening hole in a resulting casting; a stool support mechanism for carrying the stool into and out from a space defined by the inclining frame; a clamp mechanism (22, 23) for having a function of clamping the stool at a predetermined position inside the space, and equipped with a push member (27) for pushing the casting mold to the stool when the clamp mechanism effects clamping; a molten metal vessel (34) receiving a molten metal at the end of the forward stroke of the inclining frame and completing the charge of the molten metal into the casting mold at the end of the returning stroke; a cooling nozzle (38) fitted to the tubular member by operation of the clamp mechanism; a chiller cooling mechanism for blowing a cooling medium to the chillers (8); and a cooling medium tank (36) for collecting and storing the cooling medium after it is used.
