Abstract
The apparatus is arranged to hold side portions of three equally-spaced moulds. The apparatus comprises two holders (2 and 4) for opposite side portions of the moulds. One holder (2) comprises a support (12) on which moving means for moving the holders to open and close the moulds acts, a first carrier (16) for one side portion pivotally mounted on the support (12) and a second carrier (18) for two side portions pivotally mounted on the first carrier (16). The pivotal connections between the support (12) and the first carrier (16) and the first (16) and second (18) carriers are separated by half the mould spacing to balance the mould closing force between the three moulds.
