Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ingot mold with plates for the continuous casting of metal, in particular steel.
  • molds comprising four cooled plates which delimit between them a cavity for the formation of a cast slab of a fixed fixed section.
  • This cavity is rectilinear in the direction of the slab extraction and generally has a roughly rectangular cross section.
  • the plates forming two opposite walls of the mold cavity are applied against bearing faces formed on the other plates constituting the other two opposite walls of said mold cavity. These bearing faces constitute at the same time joint faces between the plates, in the sense that they extend to the cavity of the mold and thus define joints between the internal faces of the plates.
  • the plates of this mold are generally clamped against each other by clamping devices acting roughly perpendicular to the bearing faces.
  • the slabs cast in this type of ingot mold are then subjected to rolling to obtain sheets.
  • sheets from slabs thick about 300mm undergo a strong cross-dressing because a slab of about 1700 mm wide is transformed into a sheet having a width of about 4500 mm.
  • One solution to avoid this folding defect consists, for example, in eliminating the corners of the slab by making, at each corner, a chamfer by torch.
  • the present invention relates to an ingot mold with plates for the continuous casting of metal, according to the content of claim 1.
  • the sides of the right angle of the right triangle have a length of between 30 and 15mm, depending on the size of the slabs and the grade of steel to be cast.
  • the mold 1 for the continuous casting of steel has two large opposite plates 2 and two small opposite plates 3 which delimit between them a rectilinear cavity 4 in the direction of extraction of the slab and of cross section roughly rectangular.
  • the plates 2 and 3 made of copper or a copper alloy, are fixed on steel reinforcing plates respectively 5 and 6 and are provided with grooves 7 provided for the passage of an appropriate cooling agent such as water. .
  • the small plates 3 are supported on corresponding support faces 8 of the two large plates 2.
  • the plates 2 and 3 are clamped against each other by clamping devices 10 which act on each small plate 3 via the corresponding reinforcement plates 6 in a direction roughly perpendicular to the faces d 'support 8.
  • the angles of the cavity 4 are cut by chamfers 9.
  • chamfers 9 are produced on the pair of small plates 3 and, as can be seen in FIG. 2, they are each formed by the hypotenuse "c" of a right triangle T whose sides "a" and “b” of the right angle have a length greater than 30mm and preferably between 30 and 150mm.
  • the side “a” has a length equal to 80mm and the side “b” has a length equal to 50mm.
  • each right triangle T is located in the plane of the internal wall of the large adjacent plate 2 and the side "b" is located in the plane of the internal wall of the small plate 3 on which the corresponding chamfer 9.
  • the small plates 3 are connected to the large plates 2 by bearing faces 8 which are inclined towards the inside of the mold 1 at an angle of between 5 and 7 °.
  • each longitudinal wall of the large plates 2 comprises, on the one hand, a draft 11 whose edge is also inclined towards the inside of the ingot mold at an angle of between 5 and 7 ° and, on the other hand, an extension 12 which forms, with said draft 11, an embedding by song at an angle for the small adjacent plate 3.
  • the folding is all the more important as the thickness of the slab is high.
  • FIGS. 3A to 3D The folding defects of the edges of the sheets obtained after rolling the slab were compared and shown in FIGS. 3A to 3D.
  • Figs. 3A, 3B, 3C and 3D represent the images in section respectively at the level of the head, the middle, and the foot, of a bank of laminated sheet obtained after rolling slabs having chamfers of respective dimensions expressed in mm: 30 X 20; 50 X 65; 60 X 65; 80 X 50.
  • a sheet made from a 300 mm thick slab without chamfer, not shown in the figures has a fold of about 40 mm with an average loss of material of 80 mm.
  • the folding effect is no more than about 3 mm and does not disturb more than 15 mm of edge (3B and 3C).
  • each small plate 30 of the mold 1 comprises, opposite the bearing faces 8, a shoe 31 which rests on the side face of the extension 12 of each large adjacent plate 2.
  • the shoe 31 is long enough to take up the bending forces due to the withdrawal heat.
  • each shoe 31 may include a zone 32 which is not in contact with the lateral face of the extension 12 and a thinned section 33 which creates a lever arm exerting an antagonistic force in the heat of withdrawal.
  • FIG. 5 we will describe the clamping device 10.
  • a clamping device which exerts a force on a small plate the clamping device exerting a force on the opposite small plate being identical.
  • the clamping device 10 comprises two jacks 100 superimposed in a vertical plane.
  • the jacks 100 of each group of jacks are joined together by a spacer 20.
  • Each jack 100 comprises a cylinder 101 in which a hollow rod 102 is slidably mounted, one end 102a of which is integral with the reinforcement plate 6 of the corresponding small plate 3.
  • an operating rod 103 which passes through a housing 104 fixed on the end of the cylinder 101.
  • the operating rod 103 has a shoulder 103a which provides, with the housing 104 and the body of said operating rod 103, an internal chamber 105 closed by a piston 106 slidably mounted on the body of the rod 103 and inside the housing 104 .
  • a cap 107 providing with the piston 106 a small internal chamber 108 into which opens a small pipe 109 which can be connected by a connector 110 to a pump not shown.
  • the cap 107 has an internal threaded bore 107a into which a screw 111 is screwed.
  • This screw 111 also has an internal bore 111a allowing the body of the rod 103 to pass through said screw.
  • the end 111b of the screw 111 is in contact with the piston 106.
  • the clamping operation of the plates 2 and 3 of the mold 1 is carried out as follows.
  • the large plates 2 are tightened to come into contact effortlessly on the small plates 3, then the small plates 3 are tightened by action on the operating screw 103 which has a hexagon 103b for this purpose, so that the bearing faces 8 of the small plates 3 and of the large plates 2 come in contact.
  • This operation is carried out by successive bearing between the operating rod 103 of the upper cylinder and the lower cylinder.
  • the small chamber 108 is pressurized which has the effect of displacing the piston 106, compressing the elastic washers 112 and exerting a determined force on the small plate 3 by through the rod 102.
  • the screw 111 is turned so that its end 111b comes into contact with the piston 106, which makes it possible to disconnect the pump.
  • the elastic washers 112 hydraulically prestressed exert on the small plate 103 an almost constant force making it possible to resume the displacements due to dilations during casting.
  • the ingot mold with plates according to the invention allows, thanks in particular to the dimensional characteristics of the chamfers of angle of the cavity, the total elimination of the defect of folding in edge of sheet and this without any incidence on the quality of the product obtained.
