Abstract
The invention relates to a casting device for tilting-pour gravity casting, which includes a static frame, a rotatable frame adapted to be rotated with respect to said static frame over a horizontal axis. Said rotatable frame is adapted to hold a mold having a mold cavity and at least one inlet through which molten metal can flow into said mold cavity. A pouring container to contain molten metal having at least one pouring outlet through which said molten metal can flow by gravity from said pouring container to said mold inlet, and a holding arm attached to said second rotatable frame adapted to hold said pouring container so that the pouring container outlet is positioned in correspondence with said mold inlet with a pressing force over the mold as to avoid spills of molten metal out of said pouring container through the contact area of said pouring container and said mold. To enable a quick change of differently shaped casting molds with little effort, according to the invention the holding arm of such casting device includes an adjusting mechanism device for adjusting the position of the pouring container with respect to the position of said mold inlet in the direction of three space axes X, Y and Z with respect to said mold inlet.
