Front-axle bracket () for motor vehicles, in which in each case two receptacles or recesses () for the bearings for the swivel mounting of in each case one of two wheel control elements (), such as the wishbone or A-arm, and the receptacles () for the securing of the front-axle bracket are provided as a premanufactured unit together with preassembled assemblies on the vehicle body, and at least some of the receptacles or recesses listed below for the securing of the steering mechanism () the securing of the stabilizer () the mounting of a hinged column (), and the front-axle bracket is produced in the form of a light-metal component which is integral with said receptacles or recesses and connects them to one another.

Front-axle bracket, in particular for motor vehicles

A device for casting components preferably made of light metal, according to the tilt-casting principle, has a casting mold that can be tilted about its longitudinal axis, a casting channel that is disposed on the casting mold, in the longitudinal direction of the casting mold, the longitudinal side of which, facing the casting mold, has at least two outlets to the mold cavity, or at least one outlet, in each instance, to at least two mold cavities that are disposed next to one another and do not stand in a flow connection with one another. The casting channel has a subdivision device that is configured in such a manner that when the casting mold, together with the casting channel, is tilted, predetermined volumes of the casting melt flow through the outlets.

A method for producing articles in a mold includes bringing a material into a free-flowing state, introducing the material into the mold via a bottom-casting principle, and solidifying being carried out according to a top-casting principle. The material, viewed in a flow direction of the material, is first introduced into a pouring basin of a runner, then flows through the runner, thereafter through a storage space that is located upstream from a cavity and that is arranged underneath the cavity, and from there into the cavity. Thereafter the mold including the sub-parts of the mold is pivoted so that the storage space takes over the function of a feeder or riser.
