Patent ID: 7261549

Claim:
A device ( 1 , 38 , 42 ) for removing an object from a molding tool ( 2 , 30 , 44 ) in connection with casting or molding an object, wherein there is a retaining force between the molding tool and the object, wherein the device comprises a body ( 5 , 39 , 43 ) designed with a contact surface ( 9 ) adapted for at least partly being in contact with the object and coupling means arranged for coupling the object to the body, and wherein the body is provided with means ( 40 , 46 ) for applying a traction force on the object, which traction force is substantially opposite to said retaining force, wherein said means ( 40 , 46 ) for applying a traction force on the object is arranged for co-operation with the molding tool ( 30 , 44 ) for applying the traction force on the object and the coupling means is arranged to couple the object to the contact surface such that said traction force becomes substantially uniformly distributed over the part of the surface of the object that is in contact with the contact surface.
