Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for vertical continuous casting of metal in a hot-head mold with a level metal supply according to the preamble of claims 1 and 5, respectively.
  • Level metal feeds for hot-head molds are known.
  • a so-called hot-top casting process is described in the aluminum paperback (14th edition, 1984, p.23).
  • the feed metering of the metal melt does not take place, as is generally customary, via a nozzle-float system, which allows the melt to flow after the solidified metal, in particular aluminum, discharged downwards after the melt level has dropped, but instead by producing a continuous metal melt level through the Arranging the molds and melt feeds on one level.
  • a level connection of the melt up to the melting furnace is possible.
  • the liquid metal is fed to the continuous casting by simply adding water laterally from openings in the side wall of the metal feed trough arranged next to the molds and openings in a side wall of the mold. In this way, four or more molds can be supplied with molten metal at the same time.
  • the method described there and the associated arrangement have various disadvantages.
  • the one-sided, asymmetrical feeding of the molten metal can lead to turbulence, especially when starting up the plant.
  • the occurrence of temperature gradients from the feed trough to the opposite wall of the mold cannot be ruled out, so that the solidification behavior of the metal can be adversely affected.
  • Another disadvantage is the metal volume located in the feed trough, which does not flow off via the side wall, which in particular can no longer be supplied to the mold at the end of the casting process.
  • the object of the invention is to create a method and an arrangement which make it possible to avoid asymmetrical temperature gradients, turbulence and unusable metal volume when the metal supply is at the same level.
  • this object is achieved in a method of the generic type in that the level of a molten metal is produced in a hot-head mold and at the outlet opening of a melting furnace with a pouring channel which is guided symmetrically through the upper region of the hot-head mold and symmetrically through on its two side walls arranged outlet openings connects to the molten metal in the hot-head mold, the bottom of the trough being in a plane below the level of the outlet opening of the melting furnace and below the upper edge of the hot-head mold.
  • the pouring trough is advantageously guided through a plurality of hot-head molds located in the same plane.
  • the post-flow of metal is brought about by the vertical downward movement of the solidified metal molded body in the hot-head mold.
  • the arrangement according to the invention is characterized in that a casting trough, which conducts a metal flow into a hot-head mold open at the top, is guided symmetrically in and out through an insulation collar which closes off the upper region of the hot-head mold, in such a way that the bottom of the casting trough is below the intended level in the insulation collar the hot-head mold is located melt and that in the inner region of the insulation collar, the side walls of the launder have symmetrically arranged openings for the passage of the metal stream into the mold.
  • the trough Due to the direct symmetrical implementation of the trough with the symmetrically arranged openings for the passage of the metal flow, a largely laminar flow regime in the mold can be achieved. With this arrangement it is possible to distribute the metal flow evenly from the center of the molds to the circumference of the molds. The solidification zones of the resulting molded metal body are flowed directly onto, and a fine-celled, particularly uniform metal structure is achieved. This leads to an error-free edge zone of the shaped metal body, so that the previously required milling before further processing can be restricted to a substantially reduced edge area of the metal block. There are hardly any undesirable, asymmetrical temperature gradients, so that symmetrical solidification is possible. At the end of the casting process, the entire molten metal flows, practically quantitatively, into the molds. The trough can be connected to other hot-head molds. It is connected to the furnace.
  • the pouring channel with its outlet openings in the area of the insulation collar is surrounded on all sides by aluminum metal, it should preferably be made of ceramic material can be made in one piece.
  • the ceramic components should be strung together in a form-fitting manner.
  • a ceramic terminating element is used at the end to interrupt the metal flow. This consists of an end wall, which is preferably made of ceramic material and of the same height as the surrounding side walls of the trough. Should an extension of the trough become necessary later, the end element can be replaced as desired and attached to the new end of the trough.
  • the hot-head rolling ingot mold with a rectangular cross-section shown in FIG. 1 consists of the mold frame 4 provided with the cooling channels 6 and the insulation collar 2.
  • a hot-head strip 3, on which an insulation collar 2 is seated, is placed on a support surface 7 running around the mold frame 4.
  • the insulation collar 2 consists of an insert box 13 and is provided with an insulating lining.
  • the insulating collar 2 which closes the rolling ingot mold is broken through by a casting trough 1, the side wall 8 being flush with the end edge 9 of the insulating collar 2 upwards.
  • the trough 1 has symmetrically on its two side walls 8 discharge openings 10, which serve to supply the melt.
  • the metal stream 5, which comes from the furnace, not shown here, is by the Outflow openings 10 passed into the ingot die.
  • the extension 11 of the trough 1 leads to the next rolled ingot mold.
  • the metal level in the casting trough 1 and in the insert box 2 is the same.
  • the metal stream 5 arises from the vertical downward movement of the solidified rolling ingot in the rolling ingot mold.
  • Fig. 2 the hot-head rolled ingot mold is shown filled with melt. It can be seen that there is only one metal level in the entire casting system. The metal level in pouring channel 1 and insulation collar 2 extends just below the upper edge of channel 1 or collar 2. A simple level sensor 14 can be used in all molds to regulate the metal level. This controls the pouring furnace tilting movement in a known manner when pouring the molten metal into the channel 1. The flow pattern to be achieved with the invention can also be seen from FIG. 2. The main flow 5 is directed towards the far away narrow sides of the mold and brings about a uniform flow against the solidification front of the resulting metal block.
