  • Publication number: 20050091868
    Abstract: A machine with vibrating tank for drying and polishing cutlery, comprising a support and containment structure that supports elastically a treatment tank for containing a drying and polishing material. The treatment tank is actuatable with a vibrating motion and is connected to a port for loading the cutlery to be dried and polished and to a port for unloading the dried and polished cutlery, and has a circular plan shape being provided internally with a rising channel that is arranged helically around the axis of the treatment tank from the bottom of the tank to the unloading port. The loading port is spaced laterally from the axis of the treatment tank.

  • Patent number: 5441396
    Abstract: The machine has a main structure which supports, so that they can rotate about a substantially vertical rotation axis, a lower plate for supporting a centrifugal molding die and an upper plate. The plates face each other on a substantially horizontal plane and are mutually movable in a direction parallel to the rotation axis in order to ensure closure of the mold or to allow removal of the mold. The plates are accommodated in a chamber which is delimited by walls connected to the main structure and has, on the front side of the machine, an opening for access to the die. The opening is closed by a movable cover connected to at least one of the side walls delimiting the chamber by a pair of connecting rods. Each connecting rod has one end pivoted to the cover and another end pivoted to the related side wall with substantially horizontal pivoting axes to allow an opening movement of the cover along a vertical upward component and along a horizontal component toward the rear side of the machine.

  • Patent number: 5341394
    Abstract: The furnace for melting materials with a low melting point with improved casting duct comprises a furnace body which surrounds a crucible for containing the molten material and which is provided with first resistors for heating the crucible, the casting duct having an inlet arranged above the level of the free surface of the molten material in the crucible and being fed by a ladle for removing molten material, the casting duct being further provided with second resistors for heating thereof in order to prevent accidental cooling of the molten material along the duct.

  • Patent number: 5223278
    Abstract: The centrifugal casting machine for molding parts by centrifugal casting of metals, or metallic alloys, with a low melting point, or of synthetic materials, includes a main framework which supports a carousel which can rotate about a main axis and supports a mold. The carousel is actuated with a rotary motion about the main axis by a motor which is arranged so that the axis of its output shaft substantially coincides with the main axis.
