Title: Improvements in and relating to method of and apparatus for casting hollow metal bodies
IPC: B22D13/02
Filed: 1923-07-02
Abstract: 222,555. Moore, W. D. July 2, 1923. Casting - machines; metal-pouring; moulding-machines; moulds; flasks; cores; mould and core materials; patterns; castings, extracting.-Pipes &c. are ccntrifugally cast in specially faced sand moulds. The mould 10, Fig. 1, is mounted in roller steady rests carried by a tilting platform 14 pivoted at 15. The flask, perforated' at 11, Fig. 6, has a plain band 50 to engage the rollers of one rest and a V-grooved band 49 to suit the rollers of the other. A motor 63 drives the mould, when in position, through a flexible coupling 64, and notches 66, Fig. 7, in the end plate 33 of the flask which supports the sand core 34, for the socket end of the pipe, by a ring and cottars 34<1>. The core may close the mould except for the small opening shown in dotted lines. The socket part 32 of the flask is secured to the body portion which has a screwed flange 28 at the ingot end to which is bolted an end plate 29 and reversible plate 30. The flask is preferably rammed vertically on a jar ramming machine the core being replaced by a socket pattern 75 which supports the body pattern 74. The mould is introduced into the machine by a rail structure 51, pivoted to a standard 52, the rails being in the dotted line position, Fig. 5, and the arch members carrying the upper rolls of the steadies being swung back clear. Curved ends 55 of the rails locate the moulds and a clutch 62, Fig. 1, is closed to rotate a jack screw 56 from a power-shaft 18 and lower the mould into place. The arch members are then replaced and secured by bolts acting through springs to permit expansion of the mould. Pouring is commenced while the mould is in the inclined position and the mould is rotated the speed being increased during the rocking of the platform to the horizontal position. The metal is dumped rapidly from the ladle into a trough 70, Figs. 1 and 8, movable on the platform between the stops shown. The delivery spout 72 is short and semicircular fitting the tubular part 31<1> of the plate 30 with small clearance on the underside and leaving a clear vent space above. A shield 73, for the operator, is provided. To ensure that as much as possible of any dross that may enter the mould is collected at the socket end, the first movement of the platform is such as to give the platform an extra tilt. The tilting is caused by eccentrics on a shaft 16 worm and clutch driven from the shaft 18. The lowered position, in which the mould is horizontal, is defined by the engagement of stops 26, 27. After casting the mould and casting are delivered from the machine, by the rails 51, to a truck 54. The Specification gives an example of the numerical values of the various factors in casting a definite diameter pipe from iron of a particular composition. The moulds are composed of materials and faced as described in Specification 222,556.
