<p>A pouring tank transfer assembly comprises support tracks (10, 12, 22, 24) for respective transfer cars (20, 28) adapted to mount pouring tanks (not shown) filled with molten metal which thus can be rolled from respective loading stations (14, 26) to a pouring station (16). The support tracks (10, 12, 22, 24) are of a double rail configuration and are at an acute angle to one another whose vertex is at the pouring station (16). A third, guide rail (18, 30) extends parallel to each set of tracks (10, 12, 22, 24). Each transfer car (20, 28) is equipped with flangeless wheels which roll along the transfer tracks, and has a support arm (52, 53) from which guide rollers extend. Such guide rollers contact the respective guide rail (18, 30) to provide lateral stability for each car (20, 28).</p> |
