AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing mold molding machines require a deep pit below the squeeze table to accommodate lifting and downward stroke restricting devices, leading to increased equipment costs, decreased work efficiency, and higher maintenance man-hours.
Method used
The design separates the generation of large driving force for squeezing and small force for raising the squeeze table, positions all large-scale equipment above the cast iron frame, and uses a pressure transmission unit to switch between moving force and pressure, eliminating the need for a deep pit.
Benefits of technology
This approach reduces equipment costs during installation and improves maintenance efficiency by minimizing the need for a deep pit, while also reducing power consumption and cycle time.

Abstract
Provided is a mold production apparatus that generates, separately, a large pressure required for squeezing and a small force for moving a pressure-applying unit to a compression start position, and that does not require a deep pit. This apparatus produces a mold by compressing casting sand, and comprises: a pressure-applying unit which is in contact with the casting sand; a squeeze table which is fixed to a base and on which a molding flask is placed; a pressure application drive device which causes the pressure-applying unit to generate pressure; a lifting / lowering device which lifts and lowers the pressure-applying unit; a lifting / lowering drive device which moves the pressure-applying unit from a standby position to a compression start position; and a pressure transmission unit which selectively transmits the pressure from the pressure application drive device and the force from the lifting / lowering drive device.
