A mold casting device that obtains a casting product by pouring a melt into a cavity formed between an upper mold and a lower mold, comprising:
- a raising and lowering mechanism having a guide support pole that raises and lowers the upper mold;
- a die plate that is fixed to the upper mold;
- a base member that is provided on the guide support pole and supports the die plate from below;
- and
- a gauge head that gauges a displacement of the die plate due to a thermal expansion of the upper mold,
- wherein
- the base member includes a support portion that supports the die plate and an insertion portion through which the upper mold fixed on the die plate is inserted upward and downward,
- on an upper side inner edge of the insertion portion, a step portion that supports the die plate movably by a predetermined range in a horizontal direction is formed, and
- the die plate is raised above an upper surface of the step portion and floatingly supported by the base member relatively movably with respect to the base member.
