Abstract

1,123,111. Continuous casting. UNITED ENG. & FOUNDRY CO. 7 Jan., 1966 [11 Jan., 1965], No. 816/66. Heading B3F. In a continuous casting machine in which a cooled vertical open-ended straight mould is reciprocated vertically, a cooling and guiding section 22 for the casting is mounted beneath the mould and is attached thereto for reciprocation with the mould by means 23, a further cooling and guiding section, which is stationary, is provided beneath the first section and is formed by a straight portion 26 and a curved portion 27, and a final cooling and guiding section 27a is provided to guide the casting into a horizontal position. The guiding of the casting through each section is effected by rollers 49 and 54 and the cooling is effected by sprays 51, 52, 56 and 57 mounted in the respective sections, the casting and starter bar being extracted by withdrawal rolls 28 and 29 associated with a bending device for straightening the curved casting and disengaging the starter bar from the casting after the commencement of the casting operation. The radius of curvature of the casting path is related to the thickness of the cast material and to the bending stresses set up in relation to the solidified skin of the material being cast. A starter bar 35 for use in the machine comprises a flexible portion (73) and a rigid curved portion (74), Figs. 4 and 5 (not shown), and an L-shaped head portion (72) which is engageable by a ball catch (80) with the flexible portion and which is removable from the starter bar by the downward movement of the upper of rolls 32 in the straightening device as the starter bar and casting pass therethrough. The starter bar 35 is withdrawn by rolls 36 and is retained in a curved housing 34 until further required. The casting having been released from the starter bar and straightened passes through a shearing-device 37 which is reciprocatable in the direction of travel of the casting and the subsequently sheared portions of the casting are conveyed on a run-out table 39 having power-driven conveying rollers 40.
