Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve a molten metal feeding accuracy and casting quality by providing a seal valve on the side face of a molten metal feeding sleeve, arranging a molten metal liquid level sensor at the specified position as well and actuating the seal valve after detecting the filled molten metal liquid level. CONSTITUTION:A liquid level detecting sensor 8 is provided in the lower die 5 of the upper end vicinity of a molten metal feeding sleeve 7 and a small diameter seal sleeve 11 and seal valve 14 are arranged on the side face of the sleeve 7. A ceramic sleeve 11a is arranged at the inner side of the sleeve 11 and the sleeve 11b of a titanium alloy, etc., is subjected to shrinkage fitting at the outside. When a molten metal M is filled in a molten metal feeding sleeve 17 via the sleeve 11, the sensor 8 detects the liquid level and the valve 14 immediately closes a molten metal feeding port 12. The sensor 8 can correctly detect the liquid level, so the accuracy of the molten metal feeding amt. is improved. The reduction in the molten metal feeding temp. is prevented because the sleeve 11 has good heat insulation and slidability and the casting quality is improved.
