Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the support and oscillation of a continuous casting mold for the casting of liquid metal, in particular of liquid steel material, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • German patent application DE 101 31 715 A1 discloses an apparatus for continuously casting liquid metals, in particular steel, with a continuous casting mold arranged on a swing frame.
  • the swing frame is releasably connected to a base frame, the continuous casting mold and leaf spring assemblies which support the swing frame, releasably connected to a connectable to the continuous casting frame bracket.
  • the oscillation drive is mounted on the console and can be removed laterally.
  • German Offenlegungsschrift discloses DE 102 44 596 A1 discloses an apparatus for continuously casting metals with a continuous casting mold, which is mounted on both sides on a swing frame.
  • the swing frame represents a first assembly with a guide element in the form of leaf springs, which is mounted on stationary support members.
  • the device comprises on each side of the continuous casting mold, ie associated with each oscillating frame, an oscillation device in order to set the continuous casting mold in oscillation.
  • Such devices move large masses, which consist of the weight of the continuous casting mold with side walls (narrow side plates), a support structure for the side walls, water tanks, a lifting table with guide elements arranged on both sides and oscillating drives. Added to this is the frictional force between the G fauxstrang vom and the mold walls during the downward stroke of the oscillation drives.
  • the support of such devices is generally very difficult and also requires a lot of space, so that the accessibility of loaded by wear assemblies and components is difficult.
  • a lengthy dismantling or mounting exchangeable or serviceable components means an equally long-term stoppage of the continuous casting machine. This creates significant economic disadvantages.
  • the invention has for its object to shorten by a corresponding structural design, the maintenance, disassembly and assembly times for the oscillation and thereby reduce downtime and costs for the continuous casting mold.
  • the stated object is achieved by a laterally transversely to the plane of symmetry extending output or input below the guide elements or between the guide elements through which the second module is removable or installable and by a sideways directed guideway in which the second module is movable. Due to the claimed output or input with the sideways-directional guideway, the accessibility of the oscillation device is substantially increased and the downtime for the oscillation device and thus also for the continuous casting mold is substantially shortened.
  • the removal or replacement of the oscillation drive which may also include pairs of oscillation devices, requires integration into the fixed area and provides that the oscillation device is supported on a flange plate in each case in the boundary region between the first expandable assembly and the stationary assembly.
  • a lighter, faster and more complete removal or installation provides that the second expandable assembly comprises at least one oscillation device with the piston-cylinder drive and control or switching elements.
  • the device ( Fig. 1 ) for the support and oscillation of a continuous casting mold 1 is used for continuous casting of liquid metal, in particular of liquid steel material, with both sides to a symmetry plane 2, in which the central longitudinal axis 3 of the cast strand runs, arranged guide elements 4, consisting of eccentrics, handlebars, springs each type or leaf springs, as drawn, may exist.
  • the guide elements 4 are articulated to stationary support members 5, wherein the continuous casting mold 1 is supported on both sides on such guide elements and per side at least on an oscillating device 6.
  • the oscillation device 6 comprises in each case a piston-cylinder drive, control and switching means, such as valves and a hydraulic circuit.
  • Fig. 1 is a first assembly 7 of the guide elements 4 and 5 support members formed.
  • a second assembly 8 consists of the oscillation device 6.
  • a special feature is the design that the second assembly 8 by a lateral, transverse to the symmetry plane 2 extending output 9 (or input) below the guide elements 4 or between guide elements 4 removed or installed can.
  • the second expandable assembly 8 is driven with its cylinder in a laterally directed guide track 9a and can be maintained in an extended position, for example.
  • the cylinder or the piston of the piston-cylinder drive can be changed become. It is also essential that each of the two modules can be disassembled and remounted independently of each other in terms of time and location.
  • the first assembly 7 need not be removed. Conversely, the entire hydraulic circuit of the second assembly 8 may remain in the apparatus and need not be opened when only maintenance work on the first assembly 7 is performed.
  • the continuous casting mold 1 is supported by brackets 10 on the first assembly 7, wherein the continuous casting mold 1 is not seated on a lifting table, but rests directly on the guide elements 4 on the boom 10.
  • the guide elements 4, which act as support members 5 are selected in the embodiment as a leaf spring assemblies and centrally between bearing blocks 11 and 12 ( Fig. 1 ) stored.
