ABSTRACT:
In a fast-melting induction furnace, an elevationally movable pressing cover 4 suppresses the swell of molten metal 3 inside a crucible 2 on which a coil 1 is wound. The pressing cover 4 has a lower surface which is made concave. An upper half part of the motion of the molten metal 3 caused by electromagnetic force is made in conformity with the concave shape of the lower surface 5, so that the dangerous blowout of molten metal through a gap 8 is effectively prevented. Accordingly, the fast melting by the supply of high electric power can be performed. The lower surface 5 may be shaped as a cylindrical surface, a paraboloidal surface of revolution, a partial spherical surface, or the like, or may be shaped like a runner bucket of a Pelton turbine which has a slightly projecting center portion.
