[0025] By utilizing the above structure, the controller 9 transmits a signal, which enables the motor 502 to start working, so that the rotating shaft 503 can rotate on the inner wall of the limit groove 506, thereby driving the slider 505 to slide up and down on the inner wall of the limit groove 506, so that the connecting block 6 can move upward under its drive, thereby achieving the effect of clamping and fixing the ultra-thin large oil pan cast by low-pressure casting of aluminum alloy, so that the gate effect is better.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the gate filling assembly 8 includes a mold shell 801, a mold gate portion 802 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mold shell 801, and an insulating gate sleeve 803 is clamped on the inner wall of the mold gate portion 802;

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, there are two mold gate portions 802 and two insulation gate sleeves 803, and the two mold gate portions 802 and insulation gate sleeves 803 are symmetrically distributed on the inner wall of the mold shell 801.
