Mold supporting device for forming uniform molten solidified body, and method for forming uniform molten solidified body

A mold supporting device for forming a molten solidified body, comprising:

• a molten solidified body mold, which receives a molten effluent at a lower part of a melt discharge outlet of a melting furnace and forms a solidified body;
• a horizontal mold movement part for providing the mold with horizontal movement within a certain range, the horizontal mold movement part being disposed on a lower part of the molten solidified body mold and comprising an X axis movement part and a Y axis movement part that are moved in combination so that a position of the molten solidified body mold is altered freely within a predetermined range on a horizontal plane, wherein, when the molten effluent is discharged, the horizontal mold movement part is configured to shift the mold in a horizontal positional direction such that a position onto which the molten effluent drops varies;
• a mold supporting part, which supports the molten solidified body mold from the lower part of the molten solidified body mold;
• and
• a vertical mold movement part comprising a Z axis movement part, wherein:
• the Z axis movement part is configured to, when the molten effluent is discharged, shift the mold in a vertical positional direction such that a height of the mold relative to the lower part of the melt discharge outlet varies, and
• the mold is configured to adjust the position onto which the molten effluent drops such that the position is located at a height lower than a height of a previously-discharged molten effluent.
