(Prior art) A low-pressure casting machine has a holding furnace for molten metal placed below a mold, and uses pressurized air to melt the molten metal in the holding furnace through a stalk provided between the mold and the holding furnace. When casting products continuously using such a low-pressure casting machine, the molten metal in the holding furnace gradually decreases as it is poured into the mold, and as a result, the molten metal decreases. The water level drops. By the way, since the filling speed of molten metal into the mold cavity is inversely proportional to the drop between the mold cavity and the level of the molten metal in the holding furnace, the blowing pressure of pressurized air to the molten metal in the holding furnace was kept constant. If this happens, the filling speed of the molten metal into the mold cavity will slow down, resulting in variations in product quality, or part of the molten metal will solidify early during filling into the mold cavity, resulting in casting defects. A problem will occur. For this reason, conventionally, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 40-12971, a plurality of electrode rods are sequentially provided in a holding furnace at different heights and insulated from each other.
A pressure compensator has been proposed which detects a falling state of the metal level using the electrode rod and increases the pressure of pressurized air blown into the holding furnace based on the detection result. However, in such devices, the electrode rods in the holding furnace are immersed in the molten metal for a long time, and the immersion area is large, resulting in significant corrosion.
The downside is that it doesn't last long.

Therefore, recently, the holding furnace was made to be able to be raised and lowered, and
An electrode rod is disposed above the holding furnace, and when the molten metal inside comes into contact with the tip of the electrode rod as the holding furnace rises, the holding furnace is stopped, and pressurized air is blown into the holding furnace in this state. Accordingly, a low-pressure casting apparatus has been proposed that eliminates the need to compensate for the blowing pressure of pressurized air and minimizes the contact between the electrode rod and the molten metal (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 36359/1983).

However, since this device raises and lowers the holding furnace, it requires a huge amount of energy and has the disadvantage that the device becomes large-scale.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a molten metal detection stalk in the holding furnace in parallel with the molten metal pouring stalk for pressure-feeding the molten metal into the mold cavity. At the same time, a touch sensor is installed vertically in the upper part of the stalk, and the inside of the pressurized tank which seals the holding furnace is pressurized to increase the molten metal in the holding furnace to the detection end level of the touch sensor in both the stalks. Then, the inside of the pressurized tank is secondarily pressurized to force the molten metal in the pouring stalk into the mold cavity, and at the same time, the molten metal in the molten metal detection stalk is pumped with the secondary pressurized air. The idea is to push down using the pressure of
