ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for gravity molding articles such as battery straps or the like in open or non-pressurized molds. The apparatus uses an upwardly inclined molding head including a molten metal reservoir and a nozzle discharge end positioned adjacent the mold for delivering molten metal into the mold. Delivery of molten metal can be from a molten lead vat through a siphon conduit and stop-cock valve at the mold head. At the end of each pour, upon closing of the stop-cock valve, a small amount of molten metal is withdrawn from the heated reservoir into a suction system to decrease the level of the reservoir slightly below the lower lip of the nozzle end and thereby prevent dripping from the nozzle end between pours. At the beginning of each pour, the molten metal is released from the suction system back into the reservoir for use in the pour.
