System for supplying molten metal, container and a vehicle
First Claim
1. A molten metal supplying system, comprising:
- (1) a container having;
a portable container main body capable of being hermetically sealed and storing molten metal, that has a passage through which a compressed gas is introduced from an outside;
a pipe that has an outlet and supplies the molten metal stored in the container main body to the outside;
the outlet downwardly extending;
a reception dish that receives the molten metal and that is capable of being placed below the outlet of the pipe;
a holding member that has a fulcrum to the pipe and rotatably holds the reception dish;
a wire that has a first end and a second end, the first end of which being connected to at least one of the reception dish and the holding member; and
a pair of channel members disposed at the outer bottom of the container main body in a first direction, and(2) a vehicle having;
a fork that is inserted into the pair of channel members and removed therefrom;
