Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kokille zum Stranggießen von Metall mit einem gekühlte Breitseiten- und Schmalseitenwände aufweisenden, trichterförmig in Gießrichtung zum Format des gegossenen Stranges verjüngten Eingießbereich.The invention relates to a mold for the continuous casting of metal a cooled broadside and narrow side walls, funnel-shaped in the casting direction to the format of the cast strand tapered pouring area.
Die Abmessungen des Eingießbereichs werden im wesentlichen durch den Querschnitt des zu vergießenden Stranges, die Abmessungen des Gießrohres und dessen Eintauchtiefe in die Schmelze bestimmt.The dimensions of the pouring area are essentially determined by the cross section of the strand to be cast, the dimensions of the Pouring tube and its immersion depth in the melt determined.
Aufgrund der trichterförmigen Formgebung der Breitseitenwände findet in Gießrichtung nicht nur eine Verjüngung, sondern auch eine Formänderung des Strangquerschnittes statt. Infolgedessen werden der Strangschale beim Durchlaufen einer Trichterkokille im Gegensatz zu einer herkömmlichen Stranggießkokille mit ebenen Wänden zusätzliche Verformungen aufgezwungen. Um die Entstehung von Oberflächenfehlern des Gußproduktes zu vermeiden, dürfen diese zusätzlichen Verformungen einen bestimmten Grenzwert nicht überschreiten, damit die Strangschale nicht überlastet wird und eine über den Strangquerschnitt gleichmäßige Wärmeabfuhr gewährleistet bleibt.Due to the funnel-shaped shape of the broad side walls takes place not only a taper in the casting direction, but also a change in shape of the strand cross section. As a result, the In contrast, strand shell when passing through a funnel mold additional to a conventional continuous casting mold with flat walls Deformations imposed. About the appearance of surface defects to avoid the cast product, these additional Deformations do not exceed a certain limit, so the strand shell is not overloaded and one over the strand cross section uniform heat dissipation is guaranteed.
Die EP 0 268 910 B1 schlägt vor, die unterhalb des Gießspiegels noch dünne Strangschale verformungsfrei zu führen, indem die Breitseitenwände im Eingießbereich in einem ersten Abschnitt im wesentlichen parallel zueinander verlaufen und in einem sich daran anschließenden Abschnitt auf die Dicke des Gießformates zurückgeführt werden, wobei der erste Abschnitt bis unterhalb der beim Gießbetrieb einzustellenden Gießspiegelebene in den Bereich der ersten Strangschalenbildung reicht. Die gesamte dem Strang von der Kokille auferlegte Formänderung, welche für die Reduzierung des Stranges auf die Dicke des Gießformates erforderlich ist, erstreckt sich auf den anschließenden Abschnitt, der durch geneigte oder gewölbte Flächen oder Kombination derselben gebildet wird.EP 0 268 910 B1 proposes that below the casting level to guide thin strand shell without deformation by the broad side walls in the pouring area in a first section essentially run parallel to each other and in an adjoining one Section can be traced back to the thickness of the casting format, whereby the first section to below that to be set at the casting shop Casting level in the area of the first strand shell formation enough. The total shape change imposed on the strand by the mold, which is used to reduce the strand to the thickness of the Casting format is required extends to the subsequent Section by inclined or curved surfaces or combination the same is formed.
Die EP 0 552 501 A2 offenbart eine Kokille zum Stranggießen von Stahlband, bei der die Breitseitenwände einen trichterförmigen Eingießbereich bilden, der zu den Schmalseitenwänden und in Gießrichtung auf das Format des gegossenen Bandes reduziert ist. Die Wölbung des trichterförmigen Eingießbereiches ist durch seitliche Kreisbögen und an Tangentenpunkten mit diesen verbundene mittlere Kreisbögen bestimmt. Zur Reibungs- und Verschleißminderung und Reduzierung der Zug- und Biegebeanspruchungen der Strangschale sind die Radien der seitlichen Kreisbögen in einem mindestens 100 mm von der Kokillenoberkante abwärts reichenden Abschnitt gleichbleibend ausgebildet.EP 0 552 501 A2 discloses a mold for the continuous casting of Steel band, in which the broad side walls are funnel-shaped Form the pouring area to the narrow side walls and in the pouring direction is reduced to the format of the cast tape. The Curvature of the funnel-shaped pouring area is due to lateral Circular arcs and middle ones connected to them at tangent points Arcs determined. For reducing and reducing friction and wear the tensile and bending stresses of the strand shell are Radii of the lateral arcs in a minimum of 100 mm from the The upper part of the mold downward-reaching section remains constant educated.
Die DE 39 07 351 A1 offenbart einen Vorschlag, den Eingießtrichter einer Kokille so auszubilden, daß die Verformung des Metallgießstranges auf eine größtmögliche Streckenlänge verteilt wird und Einschnürungen sowie Rißbildungen in der Strangschale des Metallgießstranges vermieden werden. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß die Kontur der Innenwandung des Eingießtrichters in Strangdurchlaufrichtung durch drei sich tangential berührende Kreisbögen gebildet wird, deren Radien, in Strangdurchlaufrichtung allmählich größer werdend, in die Kontur der Innenwandung der Kokille übergehen. Eine möglichst gleichmäßige Verteilung der Formänderung der Strangschale in einem derart geformten Eingießbereich wird dadurch erreicht, daß deren Radien in Strangdurchlaufrichtung mit gleichem oder ungleichem Faktor zunehmen.DE 39 07 351 A1 discloses a proposal, the pouring funnel a mold so that the deformation of the metal casting is distributed over the greatest possible route length and constrictions as well as cracks in the strand shell of the metal casting strand be avoided. This is achieved in that the Contour of the inner wall of the pouring funnel in the direction of the passage is formed by three tangential arcs, the radii of which gradually increase in the direction of passage of the strand, merge into the contour of the inner wall of the mold. One if possible uniform distribution of the change in shape of the strand shell in one pouring area shaped in this way is achieved in that the Radii in the direction of pass through with the same or different Factor increase.
Ausgehend vom vorgenannten Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine weitere Trichtergeometrie einer Kokille anzugeben, durch welche Reibung und Verschleiß zwischen Strangschale und Kokillenwänden noch besser vermindert und insbesondere bei der Strangschalenbildung eines zu vergleichsweise hoher Schrumpfung neigenden Stahles eine noch deutlichere Verringerung des Fehlerbefalls der Brammenoberfläche infolge einer möglichst gleichmäßigen Einstellung der Formänderung verwirklicht wird.The present invention is based on the aforementioned prior art the task, another funnel geometry of a mold specify the friction and wear between the strand shell and mold walls are reduced even better and especially in the Strand shell formation of a comparatively high shrinkage tending steel an even more significant reduction in error the slab surface as a result of the most uniform possible Setting the shape change is realized.
Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß im Eingießbereich die durch den Übergang von einem Horizont auf einen darunterliegenden Horizont bedingte Längenänderung der Kokillenkontur auf jedem Horizont ein Maximum aufweist und daß diesem Maximum eine überdurchschnittliche lokale Verformung bzw. verstärkte Neigung zur lokalen Spaltbildung zwischen Strang und Kokillenwand entspricht. Daraus geht hervor, daß der Eingießbereich mindestens ein Maximum der Längenänderung der horizontalen Kokillenkontur aufweist und daß eine möglichst gleichmäßige Verteilung der Formänderung über den Eingießbereich dadurch erzielt wird, daß dieses Maximum möglichst gering ist.The invention is based on the finding that in the pouring area by the transition from a horizon to an underlying one Horizon-related change in length of the mold contour on each Horizon has a maximum and that this maximum is above average local deformation or increased tendency to local Gap formation between the strand and the mold wall corresponds. Out of it shows that the pouring area is at least a maximum of Changes in length of the horizontal mold contour and that a distribution of the shape change as evenly as possible over the pouring area is achieved by making this maximum possible is low.
Die Lösung der Aufgabe gelingt mit der Erfindung dadurch, daß im Trichterbereich die Innenkonturen der Breitseitenwände in Gießrichtung von oben nach unten wenigstens je zwei Punkte mit der Eigenschaft aufweisen, daß sie eine Gerade bestimmen, entlang derer die Innenkonturen dieser Breitseitenwände mit wenigstens einem konkaven und mit wenigstens einem konvexen Abschnitt beliebiger Abfolge ausgebildet sind.The object is achieved with the invention in that in The inner contours of the broad side walls in the pouring direction from top to bottom at least two points each with the property exhibit that they determine a straight line along which the Inner contours of these broad side walls with at least one concave and with at least one convex section of any order are trained.
Erfindungsgemäß wird vorgeschlagen, daß im Trichterbereich die Innenkonturen der Breitseitenwände wenigstens entlang einer Teillänge einer von der Kokillenoberkante bis zur Kokillenunterkante gezogenen Geraden in der Gießrichtung von oben nach unten mit wenigstens einem konkaven Abschnitt und mit wenigstens einem konvexen Abschnitt beliebiger Abfolge ausgebildet sind.According to the invention it is proposed that the Inner contours of the broad side walls at least along a partial length one from the upper edge of the mold to the lower edge of the mold drawn straight lines in the casting direction from top to bottom with at least one concave section and with at least one convex Section of any sequence are formed.
Die Lösung der Aufgabe gelingt mit der Erfindung auch dadurch, daß im Trichterbereich die Innenkonturen der Breitseitenwände entlang einer die Kokillenoberkante und den Beginn des unteren Abschnitts der Breitseitenwände verbindenden Geraden in Gießrichtung von oben nach unten mit wenigstens einem konkaven Abschnitt und mit wenigstens einem konvexen Abschnitt beliebiger Abfolge ausgebildet sind.The object is also achieved with the invention in that in the funnel area along the inner contours of the broad side walls one the upper edge of the mold and the beginning of the lower section straight lines connecting the broad side walls in the casting direction from above down with at least one concave section and with at least one a convex section of any sequence are formed.
Dabei können mit Vorteil konkave Abschnitte und konvexe Abschnitte der Breitseitenwände unmittelbar ineinander übergehen.Advantageously, concave sections and convex sections can be used the broad side walls merge directly into one another.
Vorteilhaft ist auch, wenn in Gießrichtung von oben nach unten zuerst der konkave Abschnitt und dann der konvexe Abschnitt bis zum Kokillenaustritt angeordnet sind.It is also advantageous if in the casting direction from top to bottom first the concave section and then the convex section up to Mold exit are arranged.
Dabei kann mit Vorteil jeder der konkaven Abschnitte bzw. der konvexen Abschnitte der Breitseitenwände sowohl eine in deren Verlauf gleichbleibende als auch eine veränderliche Krümmung aufweisen.Each of the concave sections or convex sections of the broad sidewalls both one in their Have course constant as well as a variable curvature.
Eine Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß die Innenkonturen der Breitseitenwände über die konkaven bzw. über die konvexen Abschnitte einen kreisbogenförmigen Verlauf oder einen trigonometrischen, beispielsweise einen sinusförmigen Verlauf aufweisen.An embodiment of the invention provides that the inner contours the broad side walls over the concave or over the convex Sections an arcuate course or a trigonometric, for example, have a sinusoidal shape.
Wenn der untere Abschnitt der Kokille einen parallelwandigen Bereich aufweist, wird ein besonders reibungsfreier Übergang zwischen Trichterbereich und anschließendem parallelwandigem Bereich dadurch verwirklicht, daß der untere konvexe oder konkave Bereich mit einem endständigen unteren Kreisbogen in den geradlinigen Bereich mit einem stetigen Verlauf übergeht.If the lower section of the mold has a parallel walled area has a particularly smooth transition between Funnel area and subsequent parallel-walled area realizes that the lower convex or concave area with a terminal lower circular arc in the rectilinear area with passes over a steady course.
Eine erfindungswesentliche Ausgestaltung der Trichtergeometrie ergibt sich durch die Maßnahme, daß die Krümmungen der einzelnen Abschnitte der Breitseitenwände mit solchen Radien ausgebildet sind, daß die größte lokale Längenänderung Deltamax (%/m) beim Übergang von einem Horizont auf einen darunterliegenden Horizont den vierfachen Wert der über den Trichterbereich ohne Berücksichtigung von parallelwandigen Abschnitten gemittelten lokalen Längenänderungen, insbesondere einen Wert von 2,0 %/m nicht übersteigt.An embodiment of the funnel geometry essential to the invention results from the measure that the curvatures of the individual sections of the broad side walls are formed with such radii that the greatest local change in length delta max (% / m) during the transition from a horizon to an underlying horizon is four times the value local length changes averaged over the funnel area, without taking into account parallel-walled sections, in particular not exceeding a value of 2.0% / m.
Und schließlich sieht die Erfindung eine Verwendung der beanspruchten Kokille für das Stranggießen von vergleichsweise zu extrem hoher Schrumpfung neigenden peritektischen Kohlenstoffstählen und austenitischen nichtrostenden Stählen vor.Finally, the invention provides a use of the claimed Chill mold for continuous casting from comparatively high to extremely high Peritectic carbon steels tend to shrink and austenitic stainless steels.
Weitere Einzelheiten, Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachstehenden Erläuterung von Längenänderungen der Innenkontur einer Kokille in unterschiedlichen Horizonten des Eingießbereichs durch deren Darstellung in den dreidimensionalen Diagrammen.Further details, features and advantages of the invention emerge from the following explanation of changes in length of the Inner contour of a mold in different horizons of the Pouring area by their representation in the three-dimensional Diagrams.

Die in Fig. 1 dargestellten drei unterschiedlichen Trichterkonturen der Breitseitenwand einer Kokille besitzen einen trichterförmig in Gießrichtung zum Format des gegossenen Stranges verjüngten Eingießbereich A oder einen trichterförmig in Gießrichtung zum Format des gegossenen Stranges verjüngten Eingießbereich B und einen sich anschließenden im wesentlichen parallelwandigen Bereich C. Dieser Kokillenbereich bzw. der Kokillenaustritt muß nicht parallele Austrittsflächen bzw. Austrittskanten haben. Der untere Kokillenbereich bzw. der untere Kokillenaustritt kann im mittleren Bereich durchaus eine kleine Wölbung von 1 bis 15 mm pro Breitseitenwand aufweisen.The three different funnel contours shown in Fig. 1 the broad side wall of a mold have a funnel-shaped shape Pouring direction tapered to the format of the cast strand A or a funnel-shaped in the casting direction to the format of the cast strand tapered pouring area B and one subsequent essentially parallel-walled area C. This The mold area or the mold outlet need not be parallel Have exit surfaces or exit edges. The lower mold area or the lower mold outlet can be in the middle area quite a small curvature of 1 to 15 mm per broad side wall exhibit.
Im Trichterbereich A sind die Trichterkonturen der Breitseitenwände
4 entlang einer die Kokillenoberkante 1 und die Kokillenunterkante
3 verbindenden Geraden von oben nach unten zuerst mit einem konkaven
Abschnitt a und daran anschließend mit einem konvexen Abschnitt b
ausgebildet. Dabei ist ersichtlich, daß die Innenkontur 4 der
Breitseitenwände über die Abschnitte a und b einen sinusförmigen
Verlauf aufweist.In funnel area A are the funnel contours of the
Im Trichterbereich B sind die Trichterkonturen der Breitseitenwände
4' bzw. 4'' entlang einer die Kokillenoberkante 1 und den Beginn
des parallelwandigen Bereichs 2 verbindenden Geraden von oben nach
unten zuerst mit einem konkaven Abschnitt a' bzw. a'' und daran
anschließend mit einem konvexen Abschnitt b' bzw. b'' und c''
ausgebildet.
Auch in diesem Beispiel weisen die Innenkonturen 4' bzw. 4'' der
Breitseitenwände über die Abschnitte a' und b' bzw. a'' und b''
einen sinusförmigen Verlauf auf.In the funnel area B, the funnel contours of the broad side walls 4 'or 4''along a straight line connecting the
In this example, too, the inner contours 4 'or 4''of the broad side walls have a sinusoidal course over the sections a' and b 'or a''andb''.
Fig. 1 zeigt außerdem, daß der konvexe Abschnitt b'' mit einem endständigen, unteren Kreisbogen c'' in den parallelwandigen Bereich d'' mit einem stetigen Verlauf übergeht. Erfindungswesentlich für die Trichtergeometrie ist weiterhin die Maßnahme, daß jeder der konkaven Abschnitte a, a' und a'' bzw. der konvexen Abschnitte b, b' und b'' sowohl eine in deren Verlauf gleichbleibende, als auch eine veränderliche Krümmung aufweisen kann.Fig. 1 also shows that the convex portion b '' with a terminal, lower circular arc c '' in the parallel-walled area d '' passes with a steady course. The invention is still essential for the funnel geometry Measure that each of the concave sections a, a 'and a' 'and the convex sections b, b 'and b' 'both in their course have constant, as well as a variable curvature can.
Bei der untersuchten Trichtergeometrie sind die Krümmungen der Abschnitte a, b, a', b', a'', b'', c'' mit solchen Radien ausgebildet, daß die größte lokale Längenänderung beim Übergang von einem Horizont auf einen darunterliegenden Horizont Deltamax einen Wert von 2,0 %/m und gleichzeitig den vierfachen Wert der über den Trichterbereich ohne Berücksichtigung der parallelwandigen Abschnitte d' und d'' gemittelten lokalen Längenänderungen nicht übersteigt.In the funnel geometry examined, the curvatures of the sections a, b, a ', b', a '', b '', c '' are designed with radii such that the greatest local change in length occurs when changing from a horizon to an underlying horizon delta max a value of 2.0% / m and at the same time does not exceed four times the local length changes averaged over the funnel area without taking into account the parallel-walled sections d 'and d''.
Fig. 2 a und Fig. 2 b zeigen im dreidimensionalen Diagramm die
Verteilung der Formänderung im Trichterbereich der Breitseitenwand
einer Kokille mit folgenden Parametern:
Bei einer gemäß Fig. 1 sinusförmig ausgebildeten vertikalen Kontur 4' des Eingießbereichs mit einer Amplitude von 1,52 mm beträgt die maximale lokale Änderung 1,90 %/m und die über die Bereiche a' und b' und die Trichterbreite gemittelte Längenänderung 0,50 %/m.With a sinusoidal vertical contour according to FIG. 1 4 'of the pouring area with an amplitude of 1.52 mm maximum local change 1.90% / m and that over the areas a 'and b 'and the funnel width averaged length change 0.50% / m.
Das gleiche Bild ergibt Fig. 3 a und Fig. 3 b für dieselbe Kokille herkömmlicher Bauart, bei der die vertikale Kokillenkontur der Breitseite durch eine gerade Linie ausgebildet ist. In diesem Fall ist die maximale lokale Längenänderung mit 2,44 %/m wesentlich größer. Es ist außerdem ersichtlich, daß die Verteilung der Formänderung wesentlich ungleichmäßiger und im Bereich der Kokillenoberkante, wo die Strangschalenbildung am empfindlichsten ist, besonders groß ist. Gerade diese Nachteile werden mit der Erfindung vermieden.3a and 3b show the same picture for the same mold conventional design, in which the vertical mold contour of the Broadside is formed by a straight line. In this case the maximum local change in length of 2.44% / m is essential greater. It can also be seen that the distribution of the shape change much more uneven and in the area of the upper edge of the mold, where strand shell formation is most sensitive is particularly large. It is precisely these disadvantages with the invention avoided.
