  • Patent number: 7900686
    Abstract: A metal mold casting machine for a casting apparatus with which the worker can easily carry out his or her work, such as setting a core, cleaning a mold, taking out castings, etc. The casting apparatus includes a turntable 1 that is rotatable in a horizontal plane, and a number of metal mold casting machines 4, 4 that are placed on an upper side at the periphery of the turntable 1. Each of the machines 4, 4 has an opening and closing mechanism 3 for a mold 2. A pouring basin 9, from which molten metal is poured into the mold 2, is mounted on the casting machine, and moves over the mechanism 3 between the peripheral side and the side toward the rotation axis of the turntable 1. The pouring basin 9 is moved to the peripheral side when molten metal is poured into the mold. It is then moved to the side toward the rotation axis of the turntable 1 when work such as taking out of a casting from the mold is carried out.

  • Patent number: 6942010
    Abstract: A gravity type tiltable metal mold casting machine, comprising: a pair of opposing upright supporting frames (2, 2); a pair of opposing main rotating shafts (3, 3) rotatably mounted on the upright supporting frames (2, 2); a main frame (4) suspended from and between the main rotating shafts (3, 3); an electric motor (19) attached to one of the main rotating shafts (3, 3) for reversibly rotating it and hence the frame (4); a drag die plate (6) vertically moved by mold-fastening cylinders (5, 5) mounted on a lower part of the main frame (4); a metal drag (10) secured to the drag die plate (6), the metal drag having a drag pushing-out mechanism (23) for pushing an as-cast product out of the metal drag; a pair of opposing horizontal cope tilting shafts (13, 13) secured to an upper end of the main frame at locations rearward of the main rotating shafts (3, 3); a cope-attaching frame (14) rotatably mounted at one end on the cope tilting shafts (13, 13); a cope die plate (16) secured to a lower surface of the cope-a
