摘要:
A rotatable carriage for supporting split-type plaster molds used in the casting of ceramic hollow ware comprises two end frames and two normally oppositely facing supporting frames, one of the supporting frames being fixed to the end frames and the other supporting frame being pivotally mounted on the end frames to permit loading and unloading of the molds. The pivotally mounted supporting frame has an inflatable member on its inner face which, when inflated after the frame is locked in position, secures the molds in place while the carriage is rotated about its longitudinal axis to positions permitting the filling of the mold cavity, the emptying of excess casting slip from the mold cavity and the returning of the molds to a horizontal opening position. By handling the molds in this manner during filling, casting and emptying, a new casting method is obtained.
