Abstract

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Mittel zum Oszillieren einer Stranggießkokille (3) in einer Anlage für ein kontinuierliches Gießen von Metallen, im Wesentlichen umfassend paarweise axgleich gerichtet führende Spannelemente (6,6',6",6"'), verbunden jeweils mit einem ortsfesten Halteteil oder Grundrahmen (1,1') einerseits sowie andererseits mit einem eine Kokille tragenden Schwingrahmen oder Kokillensättel (2,2') und einen an diese Rahmen angreifenden Oszillationsantrieb (5).The invention relates to a means for oscillating a continuous casting mold (3) in a plant for a continuous casting of metals, essentially comprising paired axgleich directed clamping elements (6,6 ', 6 ", 6"'), each connected to a stationary holding part or base frame (1,1 ') on the one hand and on the other hand with a mold supporting a vibrating frame or Kokillensattel (2,2') and an attacking on this frame oscillation (5).

Um die Stabilität der Oszillationsbewegung des die Kokille (3) tragenden Schwingrahmens oder der Kokillensättel (2,2') zu erhöhen und jegliche Taumelbewegung der Kokille (3) zu verhindern, ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass zumindest ein Paar der quer zur Gießrichtung positionierten Spannelemente in ihrer Längserstreckung zwischen Grundrahmen (1,1') und Schwingrahmen oder Kokillensattel (2,2') zu den übrigen Elementpaaren ungleich ausgerichtet ist.

Figure imgaf001
In order to increase the stability of the oscillatory movement of the mold frame (3) and the mold calipers (2, 2 ') and to prevent any wobbling movement of the mold (3), it is provided according to the invention that at least one pair of the clamping elements positioned transversely to the casting direction their longitudinal extent between the base frame (1,1 ') and swing frame or Kokillensattel (2,2') is aligned unequal to the other element pairs.
