    摘要: An immersion-type burner heater includes a heater protection tube that is installed so as to penetrate a furnace wall or an upper lid of the molten-metal holding furnace with the tip end thereof being closed; an inner cylindrical member arranged inside the tube so as to define a combustion flow passage S between the tube and itself with the tip end side thereof being open and the inside thereof serving as an exhaust gas flow passage; and a gas burner part supplying fuel gas and air to the combustion flow passage. A helically extending projecting part is provided on at least one of the outer peripheral surface of the member and the inner peripheral surface of the tube at a position that is closer to its tip end side than to the part penetrating the furnace wall or the upper lid.

    摘要: A dual-chambered molten metal holding furnace is for low pressure casting; producing cast products such as aluminum alloys using a low pressure casting method; and prevention of the gas release to the molten metal and the occurrence of air bubbles in the molten metal even when pressurized gas enters a material constituting the molten metal storage container. The part of a pressurizing chamber excluding a pressurizing pipe and a molten metal output pipe is opened to the atmosphere via an air passage gap positioned above a fixed molten metal surface level position L3. The air passage gap is positioned above the fixed molten metal surface level position L3. Even if pressurized gas is seeped into the material constituting a molten metal storage container via cracks or cracking subsequently occurred in the pressurizing pipe or minute gap originally present in the pressurizing pipe, the pressurized gas seeped from the air passage gap is released to the outside of the furnace.

    摘要: A molten metal mixing system capable of controlling generation of oxides in mixing of molten metals to. The system includes 1st/2nd apparatus for melting 1st/2nd raw materials into 1st/2nd molten metals, and a pipe connecting the 1st and 2nd apparatus. The 2nd molten metal produced in the 2nd apparatus is transferred through the pipe to the 1st apparatus to mix with the 1st raw material and/or the 1st molten metal. The 2nd apparatus has a tapping chamber for retaining the 2nd molten metal to be transferred to the 1st apparatus. The 1st apparatus has a receiving chamber for retaining the 2nd molten metal transferred from the 2nd apparatus. When part of the 2nd molten metal is discharged out of the receiving chamber to lower the surface of the molten metal, the 2nd molten metal in the tapping chamber is transferred through the pipe into the receiving chamber by siphon principle.

    摘要: A melting and holding furnace includes a main body and a material input mechanism supplying a molten metal to the body which includes a melting chamber; a molten metal receiving chamber; a pumping-out chamber; and a molten metal heating mechanism. The input mechanism includes a molten-metal surface level sensor to detect that the surface height position of the metal in the pumping-out chamber has reached a lower limit that is set to be above the lower surface height position of a lid of the melting chamber, and is set to supply the receiving chamber with the metal and/or the metal block when the sensor detects that the surface height position of the metal in the pumping-out chamber has reached the lower limit so that the surface height position of the metal in the pumping-out chamber is always kept above the lower surface height position of the lid.
