Japanese Patent JPH06104273
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for controlling the filling of mold sections (15) with molten metal is disclosed. The apparatus and method utilize a mold making machine (11) for forming mold sections having a recessed cup (30) on its upper side, a hollow cavity (15a) in the interior thereof having a predetermined shape and a passageway (15b) interconnecting the hollow cavity and the recessed cup, a conveyor (22) for transporting the mold sections along a predetermined path, a pour vessel (30) including a discharge opening (21a) and a valve (21b) for controlling the pouring of molten metal from the vessel into the mold sections, a vessel-moving device (25) for positioning the mold section beneath the discharge opening of the vessel, a distance measuring device (40) located above the mold sections and oriented towards the mold sections and operable for measuring the distance to the molten metal level in the recessed cup, and a control device (27) operable during the transporting of the mold sections for determining the distance that the mold section has yet to travel and moving the vessel so as to position it directly over the final location of the mold section at the mold pouring station and for controlling during the pouring of the molten metal the operation of the valve.
