Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Rohrkokille zum Stranggiessen von runden und polygonalen Knüppel- und Vorblockquerschnitten gemäss dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 oder 2.The invention relates to a tubular mold for continuous casting of round and polygonal Billet and billet sections according to the preamble of claim 1 or 2.

Beim Stranggiessen von Stahl in Knüppel- und kleine Vorblockquerschnitte werden Rohrkokillen verwendet. Solche Rohrkokillen bestehen aus einem Kupferrohr, das in einen Wassermantel eingebaut ist. Um eine Zirkulationskühlung mit einer hohen Fliessgeschwindigkeit des Kühlwassers zu erreichen, ist ausserhalb des Kupferrohres ein rohrförmiger Verdränger mit einem kleinen Spalt gegenüber dem Kupferrohr angeordnet. Zwischen dem Verdränger und dem Kupferrohr wird das Kühlwasser am gesamten Umfang des Kupferrohres mit hohem Druck und hoher Fliessgeschwindigkeit bis 10 m/s und mehr hindurchgepresst. Damit das Kupferrohr im Giessbetrieb durch die hohen Temperaturunterschiede zwischen der Formhohlraumseite und der Kühlwasserseite keine schädlichen Deformationen erleidet, müssen die Kupferrohre, die im wesentlichen nur am unteren und oberen Rohrende durch Flansche gehalten werden, eine Minimal-Wandstärke aufweisen. Diese Minimal-Wandstärke ist vom Giessformat abhängig und beträgt zwischen 8 - 15 mm.In continuous casting of steel in billets and small blooms are Vorblockquerschnitte Tube molds used. Such tube molds consist of a copper tube, which in a water jacket is installed. To a circulation cooling with a high To reach the flow velocity of the cooling water is outside the copper tube a tubular displacer with a small gap opposite the copper tube. Between the displacer and the copper pipe, the cooling water on the entire Circumference of the copper pipe with high pressure and high flow velocity up to 10 m / s and more pressed through. Thus, the copper pipe in the casting operation by the high Temperature differences between the mold cavity side and the cooling water side no damaging deformations suffers, the copper tubes, which are essentially only be held at the lower and upper pipe end by flanges, a minimum wall thickness exhibit. This minimal wall thickness depends on the casting format and is between 8 - 15 mm.

Seit dem industriellen Beginn des Stranggiessens bemühte sich die Fachwelt, die Giessgeschwindigkeit zu erhöhen, um höhere Produktionsleistungen pro Strang zu erreichen. Die Erhöhung der Giessleistung ist eng mit der Kühlleistung der Kokille verbunden. Die Kühlleistung einer Kokillenwand bzw. des gesamten Formhohlraumes wird von vielen Faktoren beeinflusst. Wesentliche Faktoren sind die Wärmeleitfähigkeit des Kupferrohres, die Wanddicke der Kokillenwand, die Formstabilität des Formhohlraumes um Verzug bzw. Luftspalte zwischen Strangkruste und Kokillenwand zu vermeiden etc.Since the industrial beginning of continuous casting, the professional world, the To increase casting speed in order to achieve higher production per strand. The increase in casting performance is closely linked to the cooling performance of the mold. The cooling capacity of a mold wall or of the entire mold cavity is considered by many Factors influenced. Essential factors are the thermal conductivity of the copper pipe, the wall thickness of the mold wall, the dimensional stability of the mold cavity to Avoid distortion or air gaps between the strand crust and mold wall, etc.

Neben der Kühlleistung, die bei einem vorgegebenen Strangformat einen direkten Einfluss auf die Produktionsleistung pro Strang ausüben kann, bildet aber auch die Standzeit der Kokille für die Wirtschaftlichkeit der Stranggiessanlage einen wesentlichen Kostenfaktor. Die Standzeit einer Kokille drückt aus, wieviele Tonnen Stahl in eine Kokille gegossen werden können, bis Verschleisserscheinungen im Formhohlraum, wie abrasiver Verschleiss, Materialschädigungen, insbessondere Brandrisse, oder schädliche Deformationen des Formhohlraumes, einen Kokillenwechsel erfordern. Je nach dem Verschleisszustand ist das Kokillenrohr zu verschrotten oder einer Nachbearbeitung und einer Wiederverwendung zuzuführen. Bei konischen Standardkokillen weisen in der Regel Kokillen mit etwas grösseren Kupferrohrwandstärken höhere Formstabilitäten auf. In addition to the cooling capacity, which has a direct influence on a given strand format can exert on the production output per strand, but also forms the service life the mold for the efficiency of the continuous casting plant a significant cost factor. The life of a mold expresses how many tons of steel in a mold can be poured until wear phenomena in the mold cavity, such as abrasive Wear, damage to materials, in particular fire cracks, or damaging deformations of the mold cavity, requiring a mold change. Depending on the state of wear is the mold tube to scrap or post-processing and to be reused. In conical standard molds usually exhibit Molds with slightly larger copper pipe wall thicknesses higher dimensional stability.

Ziel der Erfindung ist es, eine Stranggiesskokille für Knüppel- und Vorblockformate zu schaffen, die insbesondere eine höhere Kühlleistung erbringt und damit höhere Giessgeschwindigkeiten zulässt, ohne an die Grenzen der thermischen Belastbarkeit des Kupferwerkstoffes zu stossen. Im weiteren soll diese Kokille im Giessbetrieb eine höhere Formstabilität aufweisen und damit einerseits weniger abrasiven Verschleiss beim Durchlauf der Strangkruste durch die Kokille und anderseits eine gleichmässigere Kühlung bzw. eine bessere Strangqualität erzeugen. Insbesondere soll eine Entstehung spiesskantiger Strangquerschnitte vermieden werden. Die Kokille soll zusätzlich eine verlängerte Totalstandzeit erreichen und damit die Kokillenkosten pro Tonne Stahl reduzieren.The aim of the invention is to provide a continuous casting mold for billet and bloom formats create, in particular, a higher cooling performance and thus higher casting speeds allows, without reaching the limits of the thermal capacity of the copper material to poke. In addition, this mold is in Giessbetrieb a higher Have dimensional stability and thus less abrasive wear on the one hand Passage of the strand crust through the mold and on the other hand a more uniform cooling or produce a better strand quality. In particular, an emergence Spiesskantiger strand cross sections are avoided. The mold should additionally one achieve extended total service life and thus reduce the chill cost per ton of steel.

Nach der Erfindung wird diese Zielsetzung durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale von Anspruch 1 oder 2 erfüllt.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the characterizing features of Claim 1 or 2 met.

Mit der erfindungsgemässen Rohrkokille können folgende Vorteile beim Stranggiessen erreicht werden. Die gegenüber dem Stand der Technik geringere Wandstärke des Kupferrohres stellt eine höhere Kühlleistung mit entsprechender Leistungssteigerung der Stranggiessanlage sicher. Die im wesentlichen über den ganzen Umfang angeordneten Stützplatten stabilisieren die Geometrie des Formhohlraumes gegen Verzug der wärmebelasteten Kupferwände des Kokillenrohres, so dass einerseits der Kokillenverschleiss vermindert und anderseits die Strangqualität, insbesondere durch eine gleichmässigere Abkühlung, verbessert wird. Eine verlängerte Kokillenstandzeit ergibt sich durch verminderte thermische Belastung des Kupferwerkstoffs und geringeren abrasiven Verschleiss zwischen der Strangkruste und den Kokillenwänden. Die Totalstandzeit verlängert sich aber auch durch Nachbearbeitungen im Formhohlraum, wie Aufkupferungen von Verschleissstellen mit anschliessender spanabhebender Nachbearbeitung etc., wobei das Kupferrohr bei den Nachbearbeitungen mit dem Stützmantel bzw. mit den Stützplatten verbunden bleibt. Das erleichtert bei einer spanabhebenden Bearbeitung das Aufspannen und Vibrationen des Kupferrohres beim Fräsen oder Hobeln etc. werden durch die Stützplatten verhindert, was höhere Bearbeitungsgeschwindigkeiten bei hoher Massgenauigkeit des Formhohlraumes zulässt. Der Verbleib der Stützplatten am Kupferrohr während der Instandstellung des Kupferrohres vermindert aber auch die Demontagearbeit der Wasserzirkulationskühlung der Kokille, was Wiederinstandstellungskosten reduziert.With the tube mold according to the invention, the following advantages can be achieved in continuous casting be achieved. The comparison with the prior art lower wall thickness of the Copper pipe provides a higher cooling capacity with corresponding increase in performance Continuous casting plant safe. The arranged substantially over the entire circumference Support plates stabilize the geometry of the mold cavity against distortion of the heat-loaded Copper walls of Kokillenrohres, so that on the one hand Kokillenverschleiss reduced and on the other hand, the strand quality, in particular by a more uniform Cooling, is improved. An extended Kokillenstandzeit results from diminished thermal stress of the copper material and less abrasive wear between the strand crust and the mold walls. The total lifetime is extended but also by reworking in the mold cavity, such as coppering of wear points followed by subsequent machining, etc., where the Copper pipe during the reworking with the support jacket or with the support plates remains connected. This facilitates clamping during machining and vibrations of the copper pipe during milling or planing etc. are caused by the Support plates prevents what higher machining speeds with high dimensional accuracy of the mold cavity. The whereabouts of the support plates on the copper tube during the repair of the copper pipe but also reduces the dismantling work the water circulation cooling of the mold, which reduces recovery costs.

Die Kühlkanäle können teilweise in die Stützplatten und in den äusseren Rohrmantel des Kupferrohres eingelassen bzw. eingefräst sein. Zur Erhöhung der Kontaktfläche Kupferrohr - Kühlmedium ist es von Vorteil, wenn die Kühlkanäle die Wanddicke des Kupferrohres im Bereich der Kühlkanäle um etwa 30 - 50 % reduzieren.The cooling channels can partially into the support plates and in the outer tube shell of the Copper tube be embedded or milled. To increase the contact surface copper tube - Cooling medium, it is advantageous if the cooling channels, the wall thickness of the copper pipe Reduce by about 30 - 50% in the area of the cooling channels.

Werden die Kühlkanäle am Rohrmantel in das Kupferrohr eingefräst, so können zwischen den Kühlkanälen Stütz- und Verbindungsrippen ohne wesentliche Reduktion der Kühlleistung angeordnet werden. Gemäss einem Ausführungsbeispiel wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Kühlkanäle 65 % - 95 %, vorzugsweise 70 % - 80 %, der äusseren Oberfläche des Kupferrohres beanspruchen. Je nach dem Formhohlraumquerschnitt wird die Restwandstärke des Kupferrohres im Bereich der Kühlkanäle auf etwa 4 mm bis 10 mm eingestellt. Durch passende Wahl der Kühlkanalgeometrie und/oder Kühlkanalbeschichtung kann der Wärmeübergang zum Kühlwasser den örtlichen Anforderungen entsprechend eingestellt werden.If the cooling ducts are milled into the copper pipe on the pipe jacket, so can between the cooling channels supporting and connecting ribs without substantial reduction of Cooling capacity can be arranged. According to one embodiment, it is proposed that the cooling channels 65% - 95%, preferably 70% - 80%, of the outer surface claim the copper tube. Depending on the mold cavity cross-section is the Residual wall thickness of the copper pipe in the area of the cooling channels to about 4 mm to 10 mm set. By suitable choice of the cooling channel geometry and / or cooling channel coating can the heat transfer to the cooling water according to local requirements be set.

Bei rechteckigen Strangformaten werden vier Stützplatten am Kupferrohr lösbar oder fest angebracht. Um ein spielfreies Anliegen der Stützplatten am Kupferrohr unabhängig von den Fertigungstoleranzen sicher zu stellen, können, gemäss einem Ausführungsbeispiel, die Stützplatten gegenüber ihren benachbarten Platten einmal stirnseitig anschlagen und einmal überlappen. Benachbarte Stützplatten werden in den Eckbereichen des Kupferrohres verschraubt und bilden so einen rund um das Kupferrohr angeordneten Stützkasten.In rectangular strand formats four support plates on the copper pipe are solvable or fixed appropriate. To a play-free concern of the support plates on the copper tube regardless of to ensure the manufacturing tolerances can, according to an embodiment, once the front plates against their adjacent plates strike the front and overlap once. Adjacent support plates are in the corner areas of the copper tube screwed and thus form a arranged around the copper tube support box.

Je nach dem Einspannkonzept des Kupferrohres können die Stützplatten das Kupferrohr spiellos und starr einspannen, oder es können bei polygonalen Formaten zwischen den einzelnen Stützplatten bei den Ueberlappungen kleine Spalte für Dichtungen, vorzugsweise elastische Dichtungen, vorgesehen werden. Solche kleine Spalte können eine thermische Ausdehnung der Kupferrohrwände und/oder Masstoleranzen des Kupferrohrmantels auffangen.Depending on the clamping concept of the copper tube, the support plates can be the copper tube playfully and rigidly clamped, or polygonal formats can be used between the individual support plates in the overlaps small column for seals, preferably elastic seals, are provided. Such small gaps can be one thermal expansion of the copper pipe walls and / or dimensional tolerances of the copper pipe jacket field.

Je nach der Grösse der thermischen und mechanischen Belastung der Formhohlrauminnenwand durch flüssigen Stahl bzw. eine dünne Strangkruste, oder durch eine vorbestimmte Strangkrustenverformung innerhalb des Formhohlraumes, sind entsprechend Stütz- und Verbindungsrippen anzuordnen, die das Kupferrohr an den Stützplatten bzw. am Stützmantel abstützen und/oder mit diesen verbinden.Depending on the size of the thermal and mechanical load of the inner cavity wall by liquid steel or a thin strand crust, or by a predetermined Strangkrustenverformung within the mold cavity, are corresponding To arrange supporting and connecting ribs, the copper pipe on the support plates or supported on the support shell and / or connect with these.

Gemäss einem Ausführungsbeispiel werden am Rohrmantel des Kupferrohres pro Strangseite entlang der Eckbereiche schmale Stützflächen und im Mittelbereich der Strangseiten formatabhängig eine oder zwei Verbindungsrippen angeordnet, wobei die Verbindungsrippen mit Festhalteeinrichtungen gegen Bewegungen quer zur Strangachse versehen sind. Solche Festhalteeinrichtungen können aus beispielsweise einem Schwalbenschwanzprofil, einem T-Profil für Gleitsteine oder allgemein einer kraft- oder formschlüssigen Festhalteeinrichtung bestehen. Weil bei einer Wiederinstandstellung des Formhohlraumes die Stützplatten mit Vorteil nicht entfernt werden, sind auch Lötund Klebeverbindungen anwendbar.According to one embodiment, the pipe jacket of the copper pipe pro Strand side along the corner areas narrow support surfaces and in the middle of the Extruded pages format dependent one or two connecting ribs arranged, the Connecting ribs with retaining devices against movements transverse to the strand axis are provided. Such retaining means can be made of, for example, a Dovetail profile, a T-profile for sliding blocks or generally a force or consist positive locking device. Because at a recovery position the mold cavity, the support plates are not removed with advantage, are also solder Adhesive connections applicable.

Bei Kokillen mit bogenförmigem Formhohlraum sind die beiden Stützplatten, die die bogenförmigen Seitenwände der Kokille abstützen, mit Vorteil mit ebenen Aussenseiten versehen, damit die Kokille beim Nachbearbeiten ohne Verspannung auf einen Tisch einer Bearbeitungsmaschine aufgespannt werden kann.In molds with arcuate mold cavity, the two support plates, which are the arcuate Support side walls of the mold, with advantage with flat outer sides provided so that the mold during reworking without tension on a table can be spanned a processing machine.

Als Werkstoff für die Stützplatten eignet sich beispielsweise handelsüblicher Stahl, wenn die Kokille nicht mit einer elektromagnetischen Rühreinrichtung ausgerüstet ist. Der kompakte Aufbau des Kupferrohres mit seinen Stützplatten und dazwischen liegenden Kühlkanälen erleichtert die Anwendung von elektromagnetischen Rühreinrichtungen. Weitere Vorteile für elektromagnetische Rühreinrichtungen können durch die Materialwahl der Stützplatten erreicht werden. Gemäss einem Ausführungsbeispiel können die Stützplatten bzw. der Stützmantel aus einem für ein Magnetfeld leicht durchdringbaren metallischen (austenitischem Stahl etc.) oder nichtmetallischen (Kunststoff etc.) Material gefertigt werden. Auch Verbundstoffe sind in die Materialwahl einzubeziehen.As a material for the support plates, for example, commercially available steel, if the mold is not equipped with an electromagnetic stirring device. Of the compact construction of the copper tube with its support plates and intervening Cooling channels facilitates the use of electromagnetic stirring devices. Other advantages for electromagnetic stirring devices may be due to the choice of materials the support plates are achieved. According to one embodiment, the Support plates or the support jacket made of a readily penetrable for a magnetic field metallic (austenitic steel etc.) or non-metallic (plastic etc.) material be made. Also composites are to be included in the choice of materials.

Gemäss einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel wird vorgeschlagen, ausserhalb der Stützplatten bzw. des Stützmantels elektromagnetische Spulen anzuordnen oder bewegbare Dauermagnete in die Stützplatten bzw. den Stützmantel einzubauen.According to a further embodiment, it is proposed outside the support plates or the support jacket to arrange electromagnetic coils or movable Permanent magnets in the support plates or the support jacket to install.

Werden die Stützplatten aus einem metallischen Werkstoff hergestellt, so ist es von Vorteil, wenn die elektrolytische Korrosion durch das Kühlwasser durch eine zwischen den Stützplatten und dem Kupferrohr angeordneten Schutzschicht verhindert wird. Eine solche Schutzschicht kann beispielsweise durch eine Aufkupferung der Stützplatte aufgebaut werden. Es ist aber auch möglich, die eingelassenen Kühlkanäle im Kupferrohr mit einer galvanisch erzeugten Kupferschicht zu verschliessen.If the support plates made of a metallic material, so it is from Advantage, if the electrolytic corrosion caused by the cooling water through an the support plates and the copper tube arranged protective layer is prevented. A such protective layer can be constructed, for example, by a copper-plating of the support plate become. But it is also possible, the recessed cooling channels in the copper tube to close with a galvanic copper layer.

Die Kühlkanäle im Kupferrohr sind mit Wasserzu- und Abführleitungen an den Stützplatten bzw. am Stützmantel verbunden. Gemäss einem Ausführungsbeispiel ist es von Vorteil, wenn die Wasserzu- und Abführleitungen an den Stützplatten am oberen Kokillenende nebeneinander angeordnet und mittels einer Schnellkupplung mit dem Kühlwassersystem verbindbar sind.The cooling channels in the copper pipe are provided with water supply and discharge lines to the support plates or connected to the support jacket. According to one embodiment, it is of Advantage, if the water supply and discharge lines on the support plates at the upper Kokillenende arranged side by side and by means of a quick coupling with the cooling water system are connectable.

In Fig. 1 und 2 ist mit 2 eine Stranggiesskokille für runde Knüppel- oder Vorblockstränge dargestellt. Ein Kupferrohr 3 bildet einen Formhohlraum 4. An der Aussenseite des Kupferrohres 3, die den äusseren Rohrmantel 5 bildet, ist eine Wasserzirkulationskühlung für das Kupferrohr 3 vorgesehen. Diese Wasserzirkulationskühlung besteht aus Kühlkanälen 6, die über den ganzen Umfang und im wesentlichen über die ganze Länge des Kupferrohres 3 verteilt sind. Die einzelnen Kühlkanäle 6 sind durch Stütz- und Verbindungsrippen 8 bzw. 9 begrenzt, die als zusätzliche Aufgabe die Führung des Kühlwasserkreislaufes in den Kühlkanälen 6 von einer Wasserzuführleitung 10 zu einer Wasserabführleitung 11 übernehmen. Mit 12 ist ein Stützmantel dargestellt, der das Kupferrohr 3 über den ganzen Umfang und über die ganze Länge umschliesst und das Kupferrohr 3 am äusseren Rohrmantel 5 über die Stützrippen 8 abstützt. Die Verbindungsrippen 9 verbinden das Kupferrohr 3 mit dem Stützmantel 12. Der Stützmantel 12 bildet mit seinem Innenmantel die äussere Begrenzung der Kühlkanäle 6.In Fig. 1 and 2, 2 is a Stranggiesskokille for round billets or billets shown. A copper tube 3 forms a mold cavity 4. On the outside of the Copper tube 3, which forms the outer tube shell 5, is a water circulation cooling provided for the copper pipe 3. This water circulation cooling consists of Cooling channels 6, over the entire circumference and substantially over the entire length of the copper tube 3 are distributed. The individual cooling channels 6 are by supporting and connecting ribs 8 and 9 limited, as an additional task, the leadership of the cooling water circuit in the cooling channels 6 from a water supply line 10 to a water discharge line 11 take over. With 12 a support jacket is shown, which is the copper tube 3 over the entire circumference and over the entire length encloses and the copper pipe 3 on the outer tube jacket 5 via the support ribs 8 is supported. The connecting ribs 9 connect the copper tube 3 to the support shell 12. The support shell 12 forms with his inner jacket, the outer boundary of the cooling channels. 6

Die Kühlkanäle 6 sind in die äussere Mantelfläche des Kupferrohres 3 eingelassen und reduzieren dadurch die Wanddicke des Kupferrohres 3 um 20 % - 70 %, vorzugsweise um 30 % - 50 % gegenüber der Kupferrohrdicke bei den Stützrippen 8. Je dünner die Wanddicke des Kupferrohres 3 im Bereich der Kühlkanäle 6 gestaltet werden kann, um so grösser wird der Wärmedurchgang vom Strang zum Kühlwasser, wobei gleichzeitig auch die Betriebstemperatur der Kupferwand während des Giessens niedriger wird. Geringere Betriebstemperaturen in der Kupferwand verringern nicht nur den Verzug des Kokillenrohres 3, auch der Verschleiss wie beispielsweise Risse im Badspiegelbereich oder abrasiver Verschleiss im unteren Kokillenbereich wird dadurch reduziert.The cooling channels 6 are embedded in the outer surface of the copper tube 3 and thereby reduce the wall thickness of the copper tube 3 by 20% - 70%, preferably by 30% - 50% compared to the copper tube thickness at the support ribs 8. The thinner the Wall thickness of the copper pipe 3 in the region of the cooling channels 6 can be designed to so the heat transfer from the strand to the cooling water, at the same time Also, the operating temperature of the copper wall during casting is lower. lower Operating temperatures in the copper wall not only reduce the distortion of the Kokillenrohres 3, also the wear such as cracks in the bathroom mirror area or abrasive wear in the lower mold area is thereby reduced.

Mit 14 ist in Fig. 1 schematisch eine Rührspule zum Rühren des flüssigen Sumpfes beim Stranggiessen in der Kokille dargestellt. Es ist leicht erkennbar, dass die Rührspule 14 durch den kompakten Aufbau der Kokille und mit seiner reduzierten Kupferwandstärke sehr nahe an den Formhohlraum 4 angrenzt und damit Magnetfeldverluste gegenüber klassischen Kokillen verkleinert sind. Bei Magnetfeldanwendungen werden Stützplatten bzw. der Stützmantel 12 aus einem für Magnetfelder leicht durchdringbaren metallischen Werkstoff, vorzugsweise aus nicht rostendem austenitischem Stahl, hergestellt. Es ist aber auch möglich, den Stützmantel 12 oder Stützplatten aus nichtmetallischen Werkstoffen, beispielsweise aus Carbonlaminat etc., herzustellen.With 14 in Fig. 1 is schematically a stirring coil for stirring the liquid sump at Continuous casting shown in the mold. It can easily be seen that the stirring coil 14 due to the compact structure of the mold and its reduced copper wall thickness very close to the mold cavity 4 and thus opposite magnetic field losses classic molds are reduced in size. In magnetic field applications, backing plates are used or the support shell 12 made of a magnetic fields easily penetrable metallic Material, preferably made of austenitic stainless steel. It is but also possible, the support shell 12 or support plates made of non-metallic materials, for example, from carbon laminate, etc., produce.

In Fig. 3 und 4 ist mit 20 eine Kokille für quadratische bzw. polygonale Knüppel- und Vorblockstränge dargestellt. Ein gebogenes Kupferrohr 23 bildet einen gebogenen Formhohlraum 24 für eine Kreisbogenstranggiessmaschine. Eine Wasserzirkulationskühlung ist zwischen dem Kupferrohr 23 und Stützplattten 32 - 32"' angeordnet. In Kühlkanälen 26 sind Stütz- und Verbindungsrippen 28 bzw. 29 vorgesehen. Die Wasserzirkulationskühlung ist im wesentlichen gleich ausgeführt wie in Fig. 1 und 2 beschrieben. Anstelle des rohrförmigen Stützmantels 12 in Fig. 1 und 2 ist das Kupferrohr 23 in Fig. 3 und 4 zwischen vier Stützplatten 32 - 32"' die einen Stützkasten bilden, eingespannt. Ueber die Verbindungsrippen 29 sind die Stützplatten 32 - 32"' mit dem Kupferrohr 23 verbunden und an Stützrippen 28 kann sich der äussere Rohrmantel 25 des Kupferrohres 23 an den Stützplatten 32 - 32"' abstützen. Die vier Stützplatten 32 - 32"' sind so zu einem starren Kasten rund um das Kupferrohr 23 zusammengeschraubt, dass jede Stützplatte 32 - 32"' an eine benachbarte Platte stirnseitig anschlägt und die andere benachbarte Platte überlappt. Durch Symbole 34 sind Schrauben oder andere Verbindungselemente angedeutet. Die Stützplatten 32 - 32"' können beispielsweise durch Schwalbenschwanz- oder Gleitsteinführungen, Klemmschrauben, Gewindebolzen etc. lösbar mit dem Kupferrohr 23 verbunden sein. Es ist aber auch möglich, durch Löt- oder Klebeverbindungen etc. das Kupferrohr 23 mit den Stützplatten 32 bzw. dem Stützmantel 12 (Fig. 1 + 2) zu verbinden, weil für eine Nachbearbeitung des Kupferrohres 23, wie ein elektrolytisches Aufkupfern und anschliessendes spanabhebendes Bearbeiten, das Kupferrohr 23 mit den Stützplatten 32 bzw. dem Stützmantel 12 verbunden bleibt. In Fig. 3 and 4, 20 with a mold for square or polygonal billets and Vorblockstränge shown. A bent copper tube 23 forms a curved one Mold cavity 24 for a circular arc continuous casting machine. A water circulation cooling is disposed between the copper tube 23 and support plates 32-32 '' 'in cooling channels 26 support and connecting ribs 28 and 29 are provided. The water circulation cooling is designed substantially the same as described in FIGS. 1 and 2. Instead of the tubular support jacket 12 in FIGS. 1 and 2, the copper tube 23 in FIG. 3 and 4 between four support plates 32 - 32 '' 'forming a support box, clamped. About the connecting ribs 29 are the support plates 32 - 32 "'with the copper tube 23rd connected and support ribs 28 may be the outer tube jacket 25 of the copper tube 23 are supported on the support plates 32-32 "', the four support plates 32-32"' are thus closed screwed together a rigid box around the copper tube 23, that each Support plate 32 - 32 "'on an adjacent plate frontally abuts and the other adjacent Plate overlaps. By symbols 34 are screws or other fasteners indicated. The support plates 32 - 32 "', for example, by Dovetail or sliding block guides, clamping screws, threaded bolts, etc. releasably connected to the copper tube 23. But it is also possible by soldering or Adhesive connections, etc., the copper tube 23 with the support plates 32 and the support shell 12 (Fig. 1 + 2), because for post-processing of the copper tube 23, as a electrolytic copper-plating and subsequent machining, Copper tube 23 remains connected to the support plates 32 and the support shell 12.

An vier Eckbereichen 35 mit Stützrippen 28' ist das Kupferrohr 23 am Kasten der Stützplatten 32 - 32"' eingespannt bzw. abgestützt. Das Kupferrohr 23 wird in der Regel durch Kaltziehen hergestellt und weist in den Eckbereichen und bei den Stützrippen 28, 28' die aus dem Herstellungsverfahren resultierende Wandstärke auf. Diese Wandstärke ist im wesentlichen vom zu giessenden Strangformat abhängig und beträgt in der Regel bei einem Strangformat 120 x 120 mm2 11 mm und bei 200 x 200 mm2 16 mm. Die Kühlkanäle 6, 26 werden durch Einfräsen so gestaltet, dass ein vorbestimmter Wasserkreislauf zwischen einer Kühlwassereinlauf- und einer Kühlwasserauslauföffnung sichergestellt ist. Das Kupferrohr 23 weist im Bereich der Kühlkanäle eine Restwandstärke von 4 - 10 mm auf. Von der äusseren Oberfläche (Rohrmantel 25) des Kupferrohres 23 beanspruchen die Kühlkanäle 6, 26 eine Fläche von 65 % - 95 %, vorzugsweise 70 % - 80 %. Für den Erhalt der Formhohlraumgeometrie tragen die schmalen Stützflächen 28' beidseits der vier Rohrecken wesentlich bei. Sie sorgen dafür, dass sich die vier Winkel des Kupferrohres 23 während des Giessbetriebes nicht verziehen. Dadurch ist ein Teil der Gefahr, spiesskantige Stränge zu produzieren, ausgeschaltet.The copper tube 23 is clamped or supported on the box of the support plates 32 - 32 "at four corner regions 35 with support ribs 28 'The copper tube 23 is generally produced by cold drawing and has in the corner regions and in the support ribs 28, 28' resulting from the manufacturing process wall thickness. This wall thickness is substantially dependent on the to be cast strand format and 120 mm is usually in a strand size of 120 x 2 11 mm and mm at 200 x 200 2 16 mm. the cooling channels 6, 26 is by milling The copper tube 23 has a residual wall thickness of 4 to 10 mm in the area of the cooling channels. 26 an area of 65% - 95%, preferably 70% - 80% e narrow support surfaces 28 'on both sides of the four pipe corners essential. They ensure that the four angles of the copper tube 23 do not distort during the casting operation. As a result, part of the danger of producing spies-edged strands is eliminated.

Zwischen den Eckbereichen sind Verbindungsrippen 29 vorgesehen, die das Kupferrohr 23 mit den Stützplatten 32 - 32"' über Festhalteeinrichtungen verbinden. Sie sorgen dafür, dass ein Verbiegen der Kupferrohrwände zum Formhohlraum 24 hin oder ein seitliches Verschieben quer zur Stranglaufrichtung vermieden werden kann. Als Festhalteeinrichtungen sind bekannte form- und kraftschlüssige Verbindungen denkbar, wie beispielsweise Schwalbenschwanzprofile oder T-Profile für Gleitsteine, angeschweisste Bolzen etc.Between the corner regions connecting ribs 29 are provided, which are the copper tube 23 connect with the support plates 32 - 32 "'via retention devices. bending the copper pipe walls toward the mold cavity 24 or laterally Moving transversely to the strand direction can be avoided. As holding devices known positive and non-positive connections are conceivable, such as Dovetail profiles or T-profiles for sliding blocks, welded Bolts etc.

Bei Bogenkokillen ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die beiden Stützplatten 32, 32", die die bogenförmigen Seitenwände des Kupferrohres 23 abstützen, an ihren den bogenförmigen Stützflächen gegenüberliegenden Seiten ebene Begrenzungsflächen 36, 36" aufweisen.When Bogenkokillen it is advantageous if the two support plates 32, 32 ", which are the arcuate Support side walls of the copper tube 23, at their the arcuate Support surfaces opposite sides planar boundary surfaces 36, 36 "have.

In Fig. 5 überlappt eine Stützplatte 51 eine Stützplatte 52, die mit ihrer Stirnseite 53 an die Stützplatte 51 anschlägt. Zwischen den beiden Platten 51, 52 ist eine elastische Dichtung 54 angeordnet, die neben der Dichtungsaufgabe gegen austretendes Kühlwasser kleine Toleranzen bei den Aussenmassen am Kupferrohr, aber auch geringe Ausdehnungen der Kupferrohrwand quer zur Strangauszugsrichtung auffangen kann.In FIG. 5, a support plate 51 overlaps a support plate 52 which abuts with its end face 53 the support plate 51 abuts. Between the two plates 51, 52 is an elastic Seal 54 arranged in addition to the sealing task against escaping cooling water small tolerances in the outer dimensions of the copper pipe, but also small dimensions the copper pipe wall can catch transversely to the strand extraction direction.

Um eine elektrolytische Korrosion zwischen den Kühlkanälen 55 der Kupferkokille 56 und den Stützplatten 51, 52 auszuschalten, können die Stützplatten 51, 52 mit einer Schutzschicht 57 aus Kupfer oder einer elektrisch nicht leitenden Schicht überzogen werden. Als Alternative zu einer Schutzschicht 57 können beispielsweise die Kühlkanäle 55' nach dem Einfräsen in die Kupferwand mit einer galvanisch aufgebrachten Kupferschicht 58 verschlossen werden.To an electrolytic corrosion between the cooling channels 55 of the copper mold 56th and the support plates 51, 52 turn off, the support plates 51, 52 with a Protective layer 57 of copper or an electrically non-conductive layer coated become.
