Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of continuous casting, specifically the automatic centering of a dummy bar on a cold extruder truck.
  • the invention relates to a cold leg for sealing a mold of a continuous casting machine, wherein the longitudinal direction of the dummy bar should extend in the horizontal.
  • the invention relates to a cold extruder carriage for receiving the cold strand according to the invention, wherein the longitudinal direction of the cold runway car should also extend in the horizontal.
  • the cold strand Before the cold strand is introduced into the mold, the cold strand is pulled with a hook chain over deflection rollers on the cold extrudate. By this pulling movement of the Shift the cold strand transversely to the direction of pull so that it must then be centered by hydraulic cylinders.
  • the centering of the typically very heavy cold strand is complex and represents an additional step. How the slippage of the dummy bar can be reliably prevented by simple means is not apparent from the prior art.
  • a cold strand guide a continuous casting machine is known in which at least on the driven strand guide rollers and / or individual strand guide segments on the one hand and on the cold strand chains or on the other hand are provided engageable with each other form-fitting guide means.
  • a cold strand guide of a continuous casting machine is known, are arranged at the strand guide segments of the dummy bar guide means which cooperate with strand guide rollers of the continuous casting machine.
  • the object of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a dummy bar and a cold extrudate cart, in which the dummy bar is centered automatically and by simple mechanical means on the cold extruder truck. This should reliably prevent the slippage of the dummy bar on the cold extruder truck.
  • the cold strand relative to the horizontal has at least two inclined guide surfaces, which are arranged on both sides of a longitudinally extending vertical center plane, and the angle of the guide surfaces relative to the horizontal have different signs. Furthermore the guide surfaces are conical, each guide surface is arranged on a rotatable roller.
  • the dummy bar By the two inclined guide surfaces of the dummy bar, which are supported on two likewise inclined guide surfaces of the cold runway car, the dummy bar is automatically centered on the cold runner without the need for a separate device such as a hydraulic cylinder or a separate operation would be necessary.
  • the guide surfaces are stressed evenly, since they are conical and each guide surface is arranged on a rotatable roller. This also reduces the friction between the guide surfaces of the dummy bar and the cold runway car.
  • the cold strand is guided uniformly over its longitudinal extent when the cold strand has at least four guide surfaces, wherein at least two guide surfaces in the front region, preferably at least two further guide surfaces in the central region, and at least two guide surfaces are arranged in the rear region of the dummy bar.
  • Both sides in the width direction of the dummy bar are centered evenly strong when the guide surfaces are formed symmetrically to the center plane.
  • the cold extrudate has at least two inclined guide surfaces, which are arranged on both sides of a longitudinally extending vertical center plane, wherein the angles of the guide surfaces relative to the horizontal have different signs.
  • the guide surfaces are formed symmetrically to the center plane of the cold runway car.
  • the cold strand In principle, it would also be possible to form the cold strand with stationary (non-rotatable) guide surfaces and the cold extruded carriage with rotatable guide surfaces. Since the cold strand is moved after the casting start by the stationary strand guide of the continuous casting machine, it is advantageous if the cold strand (and not the cold extruded carriage) has rotatable guide surfaces.
  • the system consisting of a cold extrudate according to the invention and a cold strand according to the invention is characterized in that each oblique guide surface of the dummy bar rests on a corresponding inclined guide surface of the cold runway car.
  • angles ⁇ of the guide surfaces of the dummy bar and the angles ⁇ of the guide surfaces of the cold runner are equal in magnitude.
  • the Fig. 1 shows a cold strand 1 according to the invention in a perspective view.
  • the cold strand 1 has a plurality of hingedly connected cold-rod members 2.
  • the cold strand head 10 In the front region of the dummy bar 1 is the cold strand head 10, which can seal a mold, not shown, fluid-tight. From the figure it is apparent that the cold strand 1 in the front region, in the central region and in the rear region of the dummy bar comprises two conical guide surfaces 6 on rotatably mounted rollers 7, so that the cold strand 1 automatically on a cold extruder carriage ( FIGS. 3 to 7 ) can center.
  • FIG. 2 the detail A is off Fig. 1 shown. Specifically, two cold string members 2 of the dummy bar 1 are shown, which are connected by an axis of rotation D hinged together.
  • the axis of rotation D is also the axis of rotation of the roller 7, which has a conical guide surface 6 at the same time.
  • the Fig. 3 shows a cold stretcher 3 according to the invention in a perspective view.
  • the cold extruder carriage 3 can be moved over four wheels 4, for example on the casting platform of a continuous casting machine, and thus the cold strand 1 can be moved again by a separating device for separating the cold strand from the cast strand in the direction of the mold.
  • the cold strand 1 is pulled over a hook chain 8 and 9 on pulleys 3 on the cold extruder carriage.
  • the Fig. 4 shows the detail B of Fig. 3 , It follows that each guide surface 6 and each guide roller 7 of the dummy bar 1 has a corresponding oblique guide surface 16 is assigned to the cold extruder truck 3. By the guide surfaces 16 of the cold strand 1 is centered on the cold extruder carriage 3.
  • the Fig. 5 shows a side view of the cold runner 3 of Fig. 3 , which can be moved by means of travel drives 5.
  • FIG. 6 is the section CC of FIG. 5 shown.
  • the Fig. 7 shows a detail Fig. 6 .
  • the dummy bar 1 has in the front, middle and rear regions each have an oblique guide surface 6 on both sides of the longitudinally extending vertical center plane M, wherein the inclined guide surfaces 6 relative to the horizontal H are inclined at an angle ⁇ .
  • the angles of the guide surfaces 6 each have different signs (+ ⁇ and - ⁇ ).
  • the guide surfaces 6 are arranged symmetrically to the center plane M of the dummy bar 1 on each of a rotatable roller 7.
  • the guide surfaces 16 are symmetrical to the center plane M of the cold runway carriage 3.
  • the cold strand 1 can be moved over the conical guide surfaces 6 on the rotatable rollers 7 friction with respect to the inclined guide surfaces 16 of the cold runway carriage 3.
  • the rollers 7 are compared to the dummy bar 1, for example, rotatably mounted on roller or plain bearings.
  • the vertical center plane M of the dummy bar 1 is identical to the center plane M of the cold runner carriage 3.
  • the two inclined guide surfaces 16 of the cold runner 3 on both sides of the center plane M are inclined relative to the horizontal H at an angle ⁇ , wherein the angle of the guide surfaces 16 of the Kaltstrangwagens 3 in turn each have different signs (+ ⁇ and - ⁇ ).
  • the cold strand 1 Due to the inclined guide surfaces 16 on the cold extruded carriage 3, the cold strand 1 is automatically centered on the guide surfaces 6, so that a subsequent centering (eg by a hydraulic cylinder) can be omitted.
