Abstract

A casting device is provided with: a pair of cylinders; a core pin holding member to which core pins are attached; and a pair of bent members. The cylinder is disposed in parallel with a second limb of the bent member, and a rod is coupled to a surface on the inner side of a first limb of the bent member. The second limb is coupled to the core pin holding member via a coupling mechanism so as to be freely attachable to/detachable from the core pin holding member.

First claim

What is claim is:

1. A casting device comprising a core pin capable of advancing and retracting in a product cavity, wherein a molten metal is poured into the product cavity to obtain a cast product with a cast hole,
the casting device comprises a pair of cylinders, a core pin holding member to which the core pin is attached, and a pair of bent members having a first side and a second side respectively extending in directions intersecting with each other,
the cylinder is arranged parallel to the second side, and is arranged to face an inner surface of the first side, and a rod projecting from the cylinder is connected to the inner surface of the first side, and the second side is detachably connected to an end portion of the core pin holding member via a joint mechanism.

2. The casting device according to claim 1 , wherein the joint mechanism comprises a first opening formed at an end portion of the core pin holding member, a second opening formed in the second side, and a joint pin to be inserted into both the first opening and the second opening.

3. The casting device according to claim 2 , further comprising a restriction mechanism provided on the bent member and regulating movement of the joint pin in an axial direction, wherein the restriction mechanism includes a screw hole formed in the second side of the bent member in a direction intersecting the axial direction of the joint pin, a fixing screw member screwed into the screw hole, and an engaging recessed portion formed in the joint pin, wherein the fixing screw member screwed into the screw hole is engaged with the engaging recessed portion so as to restrict movement in the axial direction of the joint pin.

4. The casting device according to claim 3 , wherein the engaging recessed portion is an engaging groove formed so as to surround a sidewall of the joint pin.

5. The casting device according to claim 3 , wherein the engaging recessed portion is a step formed at an end of the joint pin.

6. The casting device according to claim 2 , further comprising a restriction mechanism provided on the bent member and regulating movement of the joint pin in the axial direction, wherein the restriction mechanism includes engaging recessed portions formed on an outer circumferential surface of the joint pin and a swingable locking plate engaging with the engaging recessed portion.

7. The casting device according to claim 1 , wherein the rod of the cylinder projects toward the first side, from an end opposite to an end on a leading end side in a mold clamping direction.

8. The casting device according to claim 1 , wherein the bent member has an L shape in which the first side is shorter than the second side.
