ABSTRACT:
A pouring tank assembly and transfer tracks are provided whereby a transfer car holding a pouring tank filled with molten metal can be rolled from a loading station to a pouring station. The transfer tracks are of a double rail configuration, with two tracks forming an angle whose vertex is at the pouring station. A third guide rail parallels each set of tracks. The transfer car is equipped with flangeless wheels which roll along the transfer tracks, and has a support arm from which guide rollers extend. Such guide rollers contact the guide rail to provide lateral stability for the transfer car.
