Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for continuously casting molten metal, in particular steel, onto a cylinder.
  • These devices essentially comprise a cylinder with a horizontal axis rotating around its axis and provided with means for energetic cooling of its external wall.
  • This cylinder receives the liquid metal from a box which has an inclined front wall whose surface of the casting cylinder licks the free upper edge through which the molten metal tends to spill.
  • This box cylinder cooperation takes place in a contiguous manner to prevent any leakage of liquid metal between them.
  • the cylinder is therefore supplied upstream of its upper generator relative to the direction of flow of the product. Due to the roughness and the rotation of the cylinder, the liquid metal is deposited thereon and under the effect of the rotation, is entrained out of the bath to leave the cylinder when its cooling is sufficient.
  • the solidified thickness of the metal when it leaves the cylinder, obviously depends on the duration of contact with the cylinder, and on the efficiency of the cooling carried out.
  • the molten metal which adheres to the cold wall of the cylinder, must first go up to this upper generator before going down again a little bit and leave the surface of the cylinder. It turns out that, in certain cases, the roughness of the cylinder alone becomes insufficient to entrain the product, at the start of casting.
  • the angle of attack that is to say the angle at the center of the cylinder intercepting the arc located between the point where the cast metal comes into contact with the cylinder and the horizontal , may be relatively small. The value of this angle, it is understood, varies like the length of the arc of contact of the metal cast with the cylinder, an arc which, for a given rotation speed of the cylinder determines a duration of contact, therefore the thickness of the product. .
  • the subject of the present invention is a process for continuous casting on a cooled cylinder rotating around its horizontal axis, which makes it possible to work with small angles of attack even when the roughness of the cylinder is not sufficient to start casting at these low values of the angle of attack.
  • the invention even makes it possible to work with negative angles of attack.
  • the method according to the invention is notably remarkable in that the initiation of the continuous casting is carried out with a high angle of attack, greater than 45 ° and preferably even of the order of 60 °, and in that , when the casting is started, the box is moved so as to reduce the angle of attack.
  • the invention provides for starting the casting with a large angle of attack and gradually reducing the latter when the casting is well started, that is to say when the free end of the cast product. exceeded the upper generator of the roller.
  • the box can then be lowered along the cylinder to reach the optimal value of the angle of attack.
  • the invention also relates to a continuous casting device for implementing the above method.
  • this axis of rotation is the axis of the cylinder itself.
  • a cylinder 1 of continuous casting which has internal means (not shown) for cooling its external wall.
  • This cylinder is rotated in the direction of arrow 2. It is supplied with liquid metal in its part located upstream of its upper generatrix 3 relative to the direction of rotation, by means of a box 4 filled with liquid metal.
  • This box 4 is supplied with liquid metal by means of a nozzle (not shown) plunging into the liquid metal, the free surface of which is marked at 6.
  • the liquid metal leaves the box via the lowered upper edge 11 of the front wall 5 which is licked the cooled surface of the casting cylinder, leaving only a small functional clearance to prevent leaks of molten metal from occurring by gravity at their junction.
  • the layer 7 of liquid metal which clings to the cylinder rises firstly with the latter to exceed the upper generatrix 3 while solidifying, it then continues descending with the cylinder 1 and leaves the latter when this layer is sufficiently solidified so as to produce a thin plate 8 of the metal considered.
  • this layer 7 does not manage to rise to the upper generator 3 due to the gravity which tends to oppose the attachment of the layer 7.
  • the priming is carried out for a sufficiently large angle of attack A to ensure the priming of the layer 7 even if the state of the surface of the cylinder does not have a significant roughness.
  • the layer 7 formed has passed the upper generatrix 3 and begins to descend on the other side, there is a transient phase during which the angle of attack is passed from the maximum angle of attack of ignition at the normal operating angle of attack B, of the order of 30 °, which is determined in particular as a function of the length necessary for the contact arc.
  • the angle of attack A at initiation is 60 ° and the normal operating angle B is 30 °, this angle being maintained throughout the duration of the casting after the intermediate step cited above.
  • a flange 10 is provided which rigidly connects the bottom of the box to a sleeve 12 mounted movable around the axis X beyond the cylinder 1.
  • a motorized jack 13 fixed to the casting floor ensures the adjustment of the position angular of the box using its working rod whose free end 14 is articulated at a point located on the periphery of the bottom of the box, opposite to the front wall 5.
