METHOD FOR MAKING ELONGATED REINFORCED ARTICLES Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: foundry, possibly casting of extended protectors and other similar products. SUBSTANCE: before feeding melt metal into ingot mold, fitting is mounted in grooves of end walls of ingot mold in such a way that one end of fitting is rigidly secured to wall and its other end is passed through groove of opposite wall and it is tensioned relative to said wall. After tensioning fitting, melt metal is fed to ingot mold in such a way that stream of melt metal is directed to fitting while moving stream along ingot mold in direction from secured end of fitting. Method prevents deflection of fitting relative to axis of ingot at casting process. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of method.
