Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ladle turret for a continuous caster with a fixed pivot column and two pivotable support arms for receiving ladles.
  • the use of a so-called ladle turret is known for the fully continuous supply of a continuous casting plant with molten metal.
  • the ladle turret is usually designed so that it either has a continuous rigid support arm with a receptacle for a ladle at the ends of the arm (DE-PS 1 220 562), or there are two independently pivotable support arms for each ladle provided (DE-PS 1 608 094), wherein the support arms are arranged one above the other on the common pivot column.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device for a ladle turret, which makes it possible that the temperature loss of the melt during transport compensated for a ladle suspended in the support arm of the turret and then kept the melt in a substantially constant temperature range for a long time can be.
  • this object is achieved in that on the pivot column of the ladle turret a platform rotatable relative to the pivot column is arranged with a heating device for a ladle.
  • the heating device has a vertical guide column for guiding a height-adjustable boom with clamping devices for at least two electrodes that can be lowered into the interior of a ladle, the current-carrying cables of which are supplied via the boom and freely through the rotatable platform and the interior of the swivel column are laid up to a clamping plate arranged at such a distance from the platform that the twisting of the cables allows the boom or the electrodes to be pivoted - as seen from the pivoting position of the electrodes associated with the casting position - in both pivoting directions by approximately 180 °.
  • the electrodes are immersed in the melt after the ladle is in the desired operating position. Due to malfunctions that may make it necessary to stop the casting, which can occur, for example, in the event of strand breaks or damage to the plug or slide, the ladle must be swiveled as quickly as possible from the casting position to an emergency container. So that the lowered electrode device can now also undergo this movement without damage, because the cantilever with the electrodes cannot move out of the ladle as quickly as necessary when an emergency occurs, the current-carrying cables are arranged in such a way that a corresponding twisting is permitted, which ultimately means that the entire device is pivotable by almost 360 °. The pivotability also opens up the possibility of immersing the electrodes, if necessary, already in the out-of-service position in the ladle just taken over by the support arm. The melt can thus be heated up to the operating position on the pivoting path.
  • the eccentric position of the guide pillar means that the cables can be passed centrally through the platform and through the turret swivel pillar to the cable clamping plate.
  • the invention further provides that the rotary drive for the platform consists of an electric motor carried by the platform, the pinion of which meshes with a toothed ring fixed on the swivel column.
  • the lock according to claims 5 and 6 can be of the type that in an emergency, when the platform and ladle support arm must be moved together, a bolt or a wedge a connection between the platform on a signal from the control panel of the system by means of a hydraulic cylinder and the hub of the respective support arm, whereby the pivoting movement is synchronized and the platform with the boom is carried along by the ladle support arm. It is also within the scope of the invention, instead of the mechanical locking mechanism, an electri see synchronism (same angular velocities) of support arms and platform.
  • the exemplary embodiment shows the foundation 1 for a ladle turret, designated overall by 2, of an otherwise not shown continuous caster.
  • the ladle turret 2 has a central pivot column 3, on which the two independently pivotable support arms 4, 5 are arranged by means of hubs 4a, 5a.
  • Each support arm 4, 5 is fork-shaped and can accommodate a ladle 6 or 7.
  • a rotatable platform 8 is arranged on the swivel column 3 of the turret 2.
  • the platform 8 has a heating device designated by 9, a guide column 10 for a boom 12 which can be raised and lowered being provided off-center on the platform 8.
  • Electrodes 14 are held by clamping devices 13 of the arm 12, which electrodes are lowered into the casting ladle which is respectively in the casting position in order to heat or keep the melt warm.
  • the boom 12 is raised and lowered by a cable connection 15 of the boom 12 to a drive motor 16.
  • One end of the cable 15 is fixed to a saddle 18 of the guide column 9. From here, the rope 15 is guided over deflection rollers 19 of the boom 12 or of the saddle 18 to a winding roller 22 of the motor 16 which is also anchored on the platform 8.
  • the rotary drive for the platform itself is attached to the platform.
  • the rotary drive consists of an electric motor 23, the pinion 24 of which meshes with the toothed ring 25 fixed on the swivel column 3 of the ladle turret 2.
  • live cables 26 are laid via the bracket 12 through the platform 8 and the interior of the swivel column 3 to a clamping plate 27. Since the platform 8 with the boom 12 must cover a swivel path of approximately 180 ° in the event of a possible emergency travel of a ladle support arm 4, 5, the distance to the cable clamping point must be selected such that the twisting of the current-carrying cable 26 pivots in such a manner allows.
  • the support arm 4 in the inoperative position I has just taken over a newly filled ladle 6 from the overhead crane.
  • the content of the ladle 7 in the pouring position 11 is almost potted, which can be seen from the completely lowered position of the boom 12.
  • the decreasing pan content make it necessary to continuously lower the electrodes, it also compensates for the wear on the electrodes that is characterized by erosion.
  • the boom 12 with the electrodes 14 must first be moved out of the ladle into the dash-dotted position, whereby the electrodes are located above the ladle.
  • the empty ladle is then exchanged for the filled ladle, for which purpose the support arms 4, 5 perform a rotary movement about the pivoting columns 3.
  • the supply of the continuous casting plant with melt via the contents of the intermediate container 28 is maintained.
  • the empty ladle is removed from the overhead crane and the support arm is cleared for the fresh provision of a filled ladle.
  • the electrodes 14 for heating and keeping the melt warm are immersed in the filled ladle and the make-up of the intermediate container 28 for continuous casting is continued.
  • the prescribed correct ladle change can no longer be carried out if an emergency run of the ladle just pouring into position 11 is necessary in the event of a fault. In such a case, there is no more time to move the electrodes 14 out of the ladle before the support arm is pivoted.
  • the support arms 4, 5 have fixed brackets 31 and 32, respectively.
  • a cylinder 33 is attached to the platform 8 in the casting position II and, for connecting the platform 8 to the support arm 4 or 5, introduces a bolt, for example a bolt or a wedge, into a not shown groove of the bracket 31 or 32 . It is advantageous that in the pouring position the locking is basically carried out for the duration of the pouring process.
