Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and a process are provided for transferring molten metal. The disclosed apparatus includes a vessel having a cylindrical wall, a closed end, and an open end. An opening is provided in the cylindrical wall for pouring molten metal into the vessel. A spout is formed over the open end of the cylindrical wall and provides an orifice from which the molten metal can be discharged from the vessel. The cylindrical wall, the closed end, and the spout define an enclosure for holding the molten metal. The disclosed process employs a vessel as described above for holding molten metal. The vessel is positioned adjacent to a first processing station containing molten metal from which the molten metal is cast into the vessel. The molten metal is then transported directly to a second processing station in the vessel and discharged from the vessel directly into the second processing station for further processing.
