Abstract
A mold support frame assembly including a pair of mold support frames between which a connector extends and cooperates with to provide a thermally stable center. Each mold support frame includes a linkage extending between a pair of spaced legs and having a connection to a mold positioning member adjacent a centering location thereof so that thermal expansion and contraction takes place about the centering location. The connector includes a second mold positioning member that extends between the pair of mold support frames and has a second mold centering location. A second linkage extends between the pair of mold support frames and has a connection to the second mold positioning member adjacent its second mold centering location to provide thermal expansion and contraction of the second mold positioning member about its second mold centering location.
