Abstract: There is provided a mold for use in the production of a silica crucible by heat-fusing silica or quartz powder attached onto an inner wall of a rotating mold, wherein an inner side of an upper opening portion of the mold corresponding to an upper part of the silica crucible is ground to obtain a step portion and a ring-shaped heat insulating barrier member having an inner diameter smaller than that of the mold is disposed on the step portion through a hollow disk-shaped support member having an inner diameter equal to or somewhat larger than that of the heat insulating barrier member.

Abstract: In a mold for use in the production of a silica crucible, a cylindrical rim member is engagedly supported through hooks to an inner side of an upper opening portion of the mold corresponding to an upper part of a silica crucible and an outer diameter of the rim member is smaller than an inner diameter of the mold but larger than an inner diameter of the silica crucible.

Abstract: In a mold for use in the production of a silica crucible, a mold cover corresponding to a small-diameter thinned portion of an upper part of the silica crucible is detachably disposed on a mold substrate corresponding to a main body of the silica crucible, and the mold cover has a barrier function against arc heating, and an inner diameter of the mold cover is smaller than that of the mold substrate but larger than that of the silica crucible.

Abstract: A mold for the production of a silica crucible by heat-fusing silica or quartz powder attached onto an inner wall of a rotating mold, wherein a ring-shaped heat insulating barrier material having a specified inner diameter is disposed on an inner peripheral wall of an upper opening portion of the mold corresponding to an upper region of the silica crucible.
