Description:
A ladle, in particular ceramic The subject of the invention is a ladle, in particular ceramic for metal pouring on permanent mould casting machines.

The ceramic ladle is known from JP 11147168 and JP 63235064 patents, made of ceramic body and consisting of holder part, bucket-shaped part having oval form with the deepest hollow point situated in the central area and with uniform wall thickness and short release pouring out part and a runner. In known ladle constructions the side surface posses holes with embedded sleeves where holders are fixed: moreover, between side surface and a holder there is a closely surface-adherent spacer.

Such ladle design does not secure durability, does not optimize neither stresses, nor thermal stability and also because of ladle design some cracks may appear what might be dangerous for workers and causes metal impurities with spattering ceramic particles.

A ladle, in particular ceramic according to the invention is bowl- shaped with end surface, of which R radius is the most advantageously of 2/3 H bowl height and passes into base surface of bowl bottom, which is characterized by maximal ladle hollow at 1/3 L of its length and g bottom wall thickness g is advantageously twice greater than changeable thickness of remaining walls and which alters from 0,04 to 0,2 of H height and then passes into runner chute-shaped surface inclined at R angle, the most advantageously, 27-32° tangent plane to the bottom surface and ended with U-shaped obtuse groove. One side wall is inclined at a angle, advantageously, 7-10° in relation to a tangent plane and to a bottom surface, whereas the opposite second side wall having mounted supporting bracket sunk at upper part of wall, advantageously flat bar-shaped with holes and advantageously sleeve-shaped connector for fixing of bucket arm. Moreover, internal and external surfaces of ladle have build-in, sunk laminar reinforcements, of which at least one layer consists of glass fiber, preferentially glass laminate.

Advantage of ceramic ladle for automatic casting machine according to the invention is its optimal form of bailing and pouring part, optimal fixture of bucket part preventing the transition of vibrations from a bucket into a bowl and thereby smaller mechanical stresses, the protection against ceramic cracks through laminate reinforcements and also better security of workers, lack of metal impurities in case of cracks and also the thermal stability of transferred metal and its heating uniformity. Moreover, the embedding of reinforcing bracket together with connector for the bucket fixture during production of ceramic bowl secures, in principle crack-free connection of these elements.

The subject of an invention as a construction example is reconstructed on the drawing : Fig. 1 side view of ladle Fig. 2 side cross-section of ladle Ceramic ladle for the automatic casting machine consisting of bailing part (1), pouring part (2), fixture part (3), is bowl-shaped with end face (4) of which R radius is the most advantageously of 2/3 of bowl height H and passes into the bottom surface (5) having maximal hollow at 1/3 L of its length. Wall thickness g of bottom (5) is advantageously twice bigger than changeable thickness of remaining walls, which changes from 0,04 to 0,3 of H height and than passes into runner chute-shaped surface (6) of bottom (5), which is inclined at an 13 angle, the most advantageously of 32° to tangent plane (7) and to bottom surface (5) and ended with U obtuse shaped groove (8).

One side wall (9) is inclined at an a angle, the most advantageously of 9° in relation to tangent plane (7) to bottom surface (5), whereas the second side wall (10), opposite to wall (9) possesses fixed, reinforcing bracket (11), sunk in upper part of wall, advantageously, flat bar with holes (12) and threaded sleeves (13) to fix bucket arm (14).

Over its entire external and internal surface the ladle possesses build-in laminar reinforcements (15), where at least one layer is made of fiber glass, advantageously, glass laminate. The subject of an invention is applied in automatic casting machines where temperature stability of poured metal, design strength, reliability , stability and safety of casting manipulators is required.
