Automotive and aerospace materials in a continuous, pressurized mold filling and casting machine

A method of filling a plurality of molds, said molds of one or more types, said filling with one or more liquids, while said molds are in any speed of largely continuous or intermittent conveyance by a conveying means, in a line of said molds, wherein, said filling of said molds is by means of filling devices, each of said filling devices having one or more chambers containing said liquids, said chambers having one or more openings and said molds having one or more access openings for said filling, said access openings being on any exterior surface of said molds, said liquids under pressure by a pressurizing means, comprising:

• a) forming at least one line of at least one type of said molds by a forming means,
• b) conveying said molds by said conveying means with the trailing-end of each mold in close relation to the leading-end of each following mold in said line of said molds,
• c) aligning said access openings of said molds in said line, for a time, with any number of chamber openings in at least one of said filling devices,
• d) sealing around said access openings between any exterior surface of said molds and against any one of said filling devices, by any sealing means,
• e) traversing said chamber openings with said access openings, said molds intermittently or continuously conveying in a sliding motion, and
• f) impressing said filling devices to any selected pressure, said pressure-controlled by a pressurizing means, thus
• g) flowing one or more of said liquids, thus
• h) filling said molds with said liquids in a sequence, said sequence with predetermined degree of simultaneous overlap by means of design of said access openings,
• i) maintaining said sealing after completion of said filling for a period of time,
• j) applying a pressure by a pressurizing means upon said liquids in said molds after completion of said filling for said period of time, and
• k) controlling said pressure after completion of said filling by a control means while said molds are still intermittently or continuously conveying,
• whereby, said filling of said molds with any of said liquids may be uninterrupted by said conveying of said molds, and duration of said filling may be independent of the duration of said conveying, and said duration of said filling may be independent of all molding process cycle times, and the duration of pressurization and amount of pressurization of completely filled molds may be independent of the pressurization of said filling, and any types of reactions or transformations of any of said liquids may proceed within said molds while conveying,
• whereby, production of molded or cast articles is at high speed and quality.
