Its content, was incorporated herein at the Japanese Patent Application 2010-14397 CLAIM OF PRIORITY of Japanese publication based on January 26th, 2010 by the application.
Background technology
In the past, as the raw material of Electric trolley cable etc., widely use the copper wires of fine copper or the copper alloy containing Sn etc.These copper wires such as use the continuous casting machine shown in patent document 1 and patent document 2 to manufacture.In continuous casting machine shown in patent document 1 and patent document 2, foundry furnace is directly connected with casting mold, solidifies the ingot casting that obtains above horizontal direction, vertical direction or pull out below vertical direction in casting mold.
In this continuous casting machine, due to the ingot casting of small diameter can be made continuously, be therefore particularly suitable for making wire rod.
In recent years, as the trolley cable that the Shinkansen etc. is used for high-speed railway, the wire rod that and copper alloy that electric conductivity good higher by intensity compared with the past is formed is required.
Wherein, and copper alloy that electric conductivity good high as intensity, can enumerate the copper alloy such as containing Cr, Zr, Si etc.Containing in the copper alloy of these elements, by carrying out suitable heat treatment, precipitate particle dispersion, in the parent phase of copper, can realize the raising of intensity and guaranteeing of electric conductivity.

Wherein, the element such as Cr, Zr, Si is the active element high with the reactivity of graphite.Therefore, the element (active element) such as Cr, Zr, Si in casting mold and molten copper reacts Formed compound, the ingot casting be cast or casting mold premature wear bonding with casting mold, thus can not cast long-term and stably.
In addition, in the horizontal continuous casting machine that patent document 1,2 is recorded, owing to pulling out ingot casting in generally horizontal directions, the impact of gravity can when therefore solidifying in casting mold, be subject to.In addition, between casting mold and ingot casting, the gap being called air-gap is produced due to solidification shrinkage, in horizontal continuous casting machine, different from lower side air-gap amount at the upper side of ingot casting.Therefore, different from lower side cooling velocity at the upper side of ingot casting, the quality of the ingot casting be made up of the copper alloy containing Cr, Zr, Si etc. is likely unstable.In addition, as mentioned above, owing to producing the premature wear of ingot casting and the bonding of casting mold or casting mold, the surface quality of ingot casting is deteriorated or becomes difficult from the pull-out of casting mold, thus can not stably cast.
In patent document 3, to disclose the wire rod of the copper alloy containing Cr, Zr etc. in the horizontal direction, above vertical direction or pull out below vertical direction, thus make the thought of the wire rod of minor diameter continuously.But, as mentioned above, in continuous casing in the past, the wire rod of the copper alloy containing Cr, Zr, Si etc. can not be made continuously.
In addition, in patent document 4, disclosing by using heated mold, suppressing the reaction of graphite and Cr, Zr isoreactivity element, being made the wire rod of the copper alloy containing Cr, Zr etc. by horizontal continuous casting machine continuously.But because graphite casting mould itself contacts with the molten copper of high temperature, oxidation loss becomes severe.In addition, when using heated mold, owing to not easily increasing the pull-out speed of ingot casting, therefore there is the problem that can not enhance productivity.Further, in this patent document 4, due at general horizontal direction pull-out ingot casting, therefore also exist and be subject to the impact of gravity, the problem of quality instability.
