Abstract
A pouring facility includes a mold conveying device configured to convey a mold, a molten-metal discharging container configured to store waste molten metal, and a pouring machine movable on a conveyance path located between the mold conveying device and the molten-metal discharging container, the pouring machine being configured to tilt a ladle in a first direction to pour molten metal into the mold conveyed by the mold conveying device, and tilt the ladle in a second direction opposite to the first direction to discharge waste molten metal into the molten-metal discharging container.
Claims7
A pouring facility comprising:
- a mold conveying device configured to convey a mold;
- a molten-metal discharging container configured to store waste molten metal;
- and
- a pouring machine movable on a conveyance path located between the mold conveying device and the molten-metal discharging container, the pouring machine being configured to tilt a ladle in a first direction to pour molten metal into the mold conveyed by the mold conveying device, and tilt the ladle in a second direction opposite to the first direction to discharge waste molten metal into the molten-metal discharging container,
- wherein the pouring machine comprises:
- a tilting frame configured to place the ladle thereon, the tilting frame tilting together with the ladle;
- and
- a fixing member configured to fix the ladle to the tilting frame, and
- wherein the ladle includes a pin receiving portion, and the fixing member is provided on the tilting frame, and includes a pin to be fitted in the pin receiving portion, and a pin drive unit configured to drive the pin in an up-and-down direction.
A pouring facility comprising:
- a mold conveying device configured to convey a mold;
