The meniscus clamp 203 is set on the surface of the annular fixing plate 201 through the slide groove 202. It clamps the mold 204 on one side and moves towards the bottom of the telescopic column 107 in the structure of the motor demolding assembly 1. When it reaches the bottom of the telescopic column 107, the drive motor 101 will be activated to use the telescopic column 107 to squeeze the casting part 205 at the bottom out of the mold 204 and drop it onto the high temperature resistant rubber pad 602 at the bottom, so as to provide cushioning protection for the casting part 205. In addition, the sponge placement box 7 can collect the casting part 205 transmitted by the conveyor belt assembly 6.

[0032] In summary, this casting demolding and cleaning mechanism has advantages such as providing some protection against falling castings after demolding and allowing for the recycling and filtration of wastewater for cleaning. It solves the problems of castings being damaged due to falling from a certain distance when directly poured onto the surface of the conveyor frame by the tilting mechanism, and the lack of a collection and recycling device for the water used to clean the castings in the cleaning nozzles, which is too wasteful.
