[0028] The two ends of the base plate 101 are respectively connected to the limiting plate A103 and the limiting plate B104. When the flipping frame 2 is in the vertical state, the lower platform 202 is in contact with the limiting plate A103.

[0030] The upper module 501 has an upper mold groove at its bottom, and the lower module 502 has a lower mold groove at its bottom. The upper mold groove and the lower mold groove can be closed to form a cavity.

[0036] Before starting work, mold 5 is installed, then baked and mold release agent is sprayed. The tilting cylinder 3 and clamping cylinder 4 extend, and the upper module 501 and lower module 502 close. The operator pours molten aluminum into hopper 503, and tilting cylinder 3 slowly retracts. Mold 5 begins to tilt along with tilting frame 2. During the tilting process, the molten aluminum in hopper 503 slowly flows into the cavity of mold 5 to cool and solidify. After the product is formed, tilting cylinder 3 extends, mold 5 is in an upright position, clamping cylinder 4 retracts, and upper module 501 and lower module 502 separate. Ejection cylinder 9 extends to lift the product stuck in lower module 502, and the operator can then remove the product.
