Abstract:
1. A hollow-cast casting, comprising a joining area, at least one core opening and a closure device that closes the at least one core opening, the closure device can be inserted into the core opening axially in relation to the at least one core opening and provides at least one surface region which, in axial projection in relation to the at least one core opening, can be made to abut a surface region of the casting that is facing toward the casting, the surface region of the casting lies radially outside a cross-sectional area predetermined by the core opening, the closure device having, in axial sequence, a base part, a middle part and a head part, the base part provides the at least one surface region that can be made to abut a surface region of the casting after being made to pass through the at least one core opening, wherein in axial projection, the base part comprises at least one collar having an axial thickness which is formed such that it is beveled on at least one radially extending collar edge, the middle part is formed like a web and connects the base part to the head part, and the head part is formed as a cover element rising up radially around the at least one core opening, the base part and the middle part have a common cross section, adapted to the cross-sectional area of the at least one core opening, wherein the head part has at least one notch-like clearance at a peripheral edge thereof, and the joining area has at least one notch-like clearance for purposes of material-bonded connection.
