Applicativi: filed March 14, 1907. Serial No. 382,343.
To all, whom .it may concern:
Be it li'nown that l', tn'rinm L. (fl/isn, a citizen of. the United States of America. and a resident olf Plainfield, Union county, lNew Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stereoty il'1glv1aehines, of which the following is a specilication.`
The present invent-.ion relates to stereotype plate casting. maehines.
'In the prior art of stereotyping machines it has been customary to have aoasting chamber larger than the size of the plate to he.
made,.therehy producing a plate having considet'able overcast. This plate has to be; trimmed and the sinrplus-nmtnll removed'. f The chief object of the present invention resides in casting a stereotype printing plate Without overcast..
The invention' embraces a stereotype east.-
ing niold: composed o-a plurality olil meinA hers orming an inclosed casting chamber of substantially the contour and dimensions'of the plate t he oast, a valve for introducing molten metal into the mold, Iwhich, when closed, forms a part of the Wall of the casting chamber, and a valve adapted to be automatically closed for allowing the air to es- .cape vfrom the said casting chamber, and
which, when closed, forms a partof the wall vofthe Casting chamber.
The invention may be applied either to a vertical,- inclined or horizontal casting mold,
andthev Words upper end and floWe'r end .depend purely upon which end of the most. v
Othert features of eonstruetion, combinat1on orparts, and arrangement of elements mold happei'is to uppermost or lov-ven will appear as the specification proceeds.
In, the acompanyirig-ilrawingfi theinvention is embodied in a concrete form showing several modifications, but one of' which 1s a preferred form. 'lt' is to he understood, however, that lvariations may' be made 1n the con' struction Without departin from the legiti mate and intended 'scope o the invention.
. In the said draw'in s; Figure 1f is a View' in elevation and part y broken away and in seotion ofa stereotype casting machine embodyin the invention. viewe the valvef for regulatin 'the admisv sion of' metal to the castin eh mber.- Fig.
3 is 'a detail View of one o .the head gages, partly broken away. Fig. 3a is a transverse vertical section, partly broken away, through the center *t the valve 23 shown in Fig. 3,
Fig. 2jis a detail showing the said valve in its closed imstion. Fig. 1l 1s a transverse section of tlio. line lll-41 olE Fig. 5, showing' lheinveniion applied lo a horizontal tasting mold. Fig. is a View looking in the direction of the arrow :i of. lfig. Lland partly broken away and in section. Similar characters ot reference .indicate :orres1iondi-x-1g parts of the different views.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 3? inclusive, '1 indicates a metal n'ielting furnace of any usualor suitable structure and provided with the melting' Apot 2.- Located adjacent to this metal melting furnace is an upright stereo-l type casting mold, indicated'lhy 3.- 'lhe casting mold is composed of two parts, asta: tionary part, here called the drag and indicated by 4, and a movable part, here called the Cope indicated by 5. The stationary/.part
can conveniently be placed with. its back-.- against the metal-melting .furnace and-.is se-. cured thereto by any suitable means, asthe vbolts 6. "The means for moving the. cope to- Ward and away from the-drag may be of any suitable construction..

``When this 'valve is closed it forms a part of the lWall of thecastng chamber as shown.
Located in the upper head gage is a valve 23 for allowing the lair to escape as the casting chamber is filled. This 'valve is prol vided with'a slot 24 in which plays the screw or s'to v25 carried by the vgage so that the valve y its own Weight is, normally held o en. The rise of the molten metal serves to c ose the valve in its seat 26by reason of the complementary-tapered surfaces in the valve and seat, and when so closed Ait forms a part of the Wall of the casting chamber.
