Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はチャンバに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来の双ロール鋳造機の一例としては特許文献1に示すものがある。
【0003】
【特許文献1】
特開平8−300108号公報
【0004】
この特許文献1に示す双ロール鋳造機は、図5に示すごとく一対の冷却ロール1と、当該冷却ロール1に付帯する一対のサイド堰2と、冷却ロール1により鋳造されるストリップ3を挾持し且つ圧延成形などの次工程へ送給する一対のピンチロール4と、ストリップ3の板幅方向縁部に対峙する左右の側壁を有し且つ冷却ロール1からピンチロール4までの間でストリップ3の搬送経路を取り囲む包囲筺体5と、当該包囲筺体5の内部に設置したスレッディングテーブル6、及び複数のテーブルロール7とを備えている。
【0005】
これに加えて、各冷却ロール1の外周面に当接するシール部材8を、包囲筺体5のストリップ3移動方向上流部分に設け、また、各ピンチロール4の外周面に当接するシール部材9を、包囲筺体5のストリップ3移動方向下流部分に設けている。
【0006】
冷却ロール1は、水平に且つ互いに平行に配置され、鋳造すべきストリップ3の板厚に応じてロール間隙を拡縮調整できるようになっている。
【0007】
冷却ロール1の回転方向と速度は、それぞれの外周面が上側からロール間隙へ向かって等速で移動するように設定されている。
【0008】
また、冷却ロール1は、その内部に冷却水が流通可能に形成されている。
【0009】
一方のサイド堰2は、各冷却ロール1の一端面に面接触し、他方のサイド堰2は、各冷却ロール1の他端面に面接触しており、サイド堰2と冷却ロール1とで囲まれる空間に溶融金属を供給すると、当該金属が溶湯溜まり10を形成する。
【0010】
冷却ロール1の内部に冷却水を流通させながら、上記の溶湯溜まり10を形成させ且つ冷却ロール1を回転させると、冷却ロール1の外周面で金属が凝固し、ロール間隙よりストリップ3が下方へ向かって送り出される。
【0011】
スレッディングテーブル6は、冷却ロール1から送り出されるストリップ3をピンチロール4側へ向けて案内する状態、及びストリップ3に接触しない状態のいずれかに位置設定できるようになっている。
【0012】
また、テーブルロール7は、スレッディングテーブル6を経てピンチロール4側へ向かうストリップ3を、その下側から支持するように配置されている。
【0013】
包囲筺体5下部には、スクラップ箱11が冷却ロール1の真下に位置するように配置されており、鋳造開始時に不完全な形態で冷却ロール1から送り出されるストリップ3を、当該スクラップ箱11へ回収できるようになっている。
【0014】
不完全な形態のストリップ3を回収する場合には、鋳造条件の安定化に伴ってストリップ3が完全な状態を呈した後に、冷却ロール1のロール間隙を少し拡大して、再び元の状態にロール間隙を戻す。
【0015】
このとき、ロール間隙が拡大している間だけ、冷却ロール1による溶融金属の凝固が抑制され、完全な形態のストリップ3から不完全な形態の先端部分が破断されて、スクラップ箱11に落下するようになる。
【0016】
更に、包囲筺体5及びスクラップ箱11の内部には、管路12によって不活性ガス(窒素ガス)Gが送給され、包囲筺体5の内部を無酸化雰囲気に保持して、高温時状態でのストリップ3表面の酸化防止を図っている。
【0017】
また、上記の不活性ガスGは、包囲筺体5と冷却ロール1の間に介在しているシール部材8、及び包囲筺体5とピンチロール4の間に介在しているシール部材9によって外部への流出が抑制される。
【0018】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、図5に示す双ロール鋳造機では、高温材料であるストリップ3を取り囲む包囲筺体5に熱変形が生じ、更に、この熱変形に起因する応力集中で包囲筺体5の構成部材が塑性変形して、ストリップ3の搬送経路を無酸化雰囲気に保持できなくなることが懸念される。
【0019】

【0035】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を、図示例とともに説明する。
【0036】
図1乃至図4は本発明のチャンバの実施の形態の一例を示すものであり、このチャンバは、ピンチロール4(図5参照)側へ略水平に移動するストリップ3の下側に配置した下部パネル13と、横向きに貫通する複数の開口14を有し且つストリップ3の側縁部分に対峙するように下部パネル13の左右縁部に下縁部を気密に固着した一対の側部パネル15と、上下に貫通する点検口16を有し且つ側部パネル15の上縁部に左右縁部を気密に固着した上部パネル17と、該上部パネル17の点検口16、及びその周囲を被覆可能な形状の点検蓋18と、前記の開口14に挿通可能なテーブルロール19と、各テーブルロール19の端部を枢支する軸箱20、並びに各テーブルロール19の端部付近に設けた弾性シール部材21とを備えている。
【0037】
各パネル13,15,17は、ストリップ3の搬送経路(高温材料搬送経路)を周方向に取り囲む構体22を構成している。
【0038】
側部パネル15に連なった下部パネル13の左右縁部、及び側部パネル15に連なった上部パネル17の左右縁部は、ストリップ3の移動方向から見て、曲率中心が構体22内方に位置する円弧形状に設定されている。
【0039】
すなわち、パネル13,17とパネル15の相互固着部分付近を、適度な曲率の円弧形状にすることにより、当該相互固着部分での熱変形に起因した応力集中が緩和され、構体22の塑性変形を回避することができる。
【0040】
また、構体22は、建屋床面に設置した架台23にブラケット(図示せず)を介して支持されており、双ロール鋳造機の包囲筺体5(図5参照)の一部として組み込まれている。
【0041】
更に、構体22の前端部と後端部には、ストリップ3が通過可能な通過口24を有する端部パネル25が、各パネル13,15,17の端部に気密に固着されている。
【0042】
一方の端部パネル25は、冷却ロール1(図5参照)側に位置する構体(図示せず)に接続され、他方の端部パネル25は、ピンチロール4側に位置する構体(図示せず)に接続されている。
【0043】
各パネル13,15,17,25、及び点検蓋18は、水(冷却用流体)26が流通可能な通路を内部に形成した二重壁構造になっている。
【0044】
側部パネル15を例にして二重壁構造を説明すると、側部パネル15は、下縁寄り部分に複数の開口14が一列に並んで穿設され且つ互いに平行な一対の壁板27,28と、両壁板27,28間に開口14を取り囲むように位置し且つ当該壁板27,28に固着した環状の液密壁29と、両壁板27,28周縁部に全周にわたって固着した液密壁30と、両壁板27,28間の上縁寄り部分に位置し且つ屈折した通路を形成する区画壁31とを有している。
【0045】
壁板27には、側部パネル15の一方の上側角隅部分から水26を外部へ送給する流出口32が穿設されている。
【0046】
液密壁30には、流出口32の穿設箇所に相対している側部パネル15の下側角隅部分近傍に位置し且つ側部パネル15内方へ水26が流入する流入口33が穿設されている。
【0047】
区画壁31の形状は、流入口33から側部パネル15内方へ流入した水26を、側部パネル15前後方向へ流通させながら、流出口32へ導くように設定されている。
【0048】
上部パネル17は、図4に示すように作業に適した形状の点検口16が穿設され且つ互いに平行な一対の壁板34,35と、両壁板34,35間に点検口16を取り囲むように位置し且つ当該壁板34,35に固着した液密壁36と、両壁板34,35周縁部に全周にわたって固着した液密壁37と、両壁板34,35間に設けた区画壁(図示せず)とを有し、これらの部材により、閉空間の内部に水26が流通する通路を形成している。
【0049】
端部パネル25は、上述した壁板34,35、液密壁36,37、及び区画壁に相当する部材を有し、これらの部材により、閉空間の内部に水26が流通する通路を形成している。
【0050】
点検蓋18は、図4に示すように互いに平行な一対の壁板38,39と、両壁板38,39周縁部に全周にわたって固着した液密壁40と、両壁板38,39間に設けた区画壁(図示せず)とを有し、これらの部材により、閉空間の内部に水26が流通する通路を形成している。
【0051】
下部パネル13は、上述した壁板38,39、液密壁40、及び区画壁に相当する部材を有し、これらの各部材により、閉空間の内部に水26が流通する通路を形成している。
【0052】
すなわち、高温のストリップ3が構体22の内部を移動するときに、各パネル13,15,17,25や点検蓋18の内部の通路のそれぞれに水26を連続的に送給することにより、これらの部材の熱変形が抑制され、構体22の塑性変形を回避することができる。
【0053】
上部パネル17の上面には、点検口16の周縁部分の全周にわたって取り囲み且つそれぞれ封鎖材41を貯留可能な2条の溝42を形成するように、パネル側シール部材43が固着されている。
【0054】
封鎖材41には、流動性を有する無定形状の物質、すなわち、砂などの粉粒体、あるいは、水などの液体を用いる。
【0055】
封鎖材41に砂などの粉粒体を用いた場合には、蒸発による消耗が発生しないので、当該封鎖材41の補充作業を軽減することができる。
【0056】
また、封鎖材41に水などの液体を用いた場合には、流動性に優れているので、封鎖材41を溝42内へ容易に且つ均等に補充することができる。
【0057】
点検蓋18の下面周縁部分には、その全周にわたって前記の溝42のそれぞれに嵌入可能な蓋側シール部材44が固着されている。
【0058】
点検蓋18の一端部は、点検口16の至近に配置した横方向へ略水平に延びる支持軸45に締結されている。
【0059】
この支持軸45は、構体22側方に設けた固定構造物(図示せず)に枢支されている。
【0060】
また、支持軸45の端部には、クランク46を介してシリンダ(図示せず)が連結されている。
【0061】
これにより、シリンダの作動に応じて点検蓋18が、蓋側シール部材44が溝42の全周に嵌入して封鎖材41にめり込み、点検口16を気密に閉止する位置と、上部パネル17から離隔して点検口16を開放する位置との間を回動する。
【0062】
また、2条の溝42を形成するパネル側シール部材43、及び各溝42に嵌入可能な蓋側シール部材44によって気密保持境界が多重化されているので、構体22に対する点検蓋18の気密性の向上を図ることができる。
【0063】
テーブルロール19は、その端部が構体22の外方に突出するように、前記の側部パネル15の開口14に挿通されている。
【0064】
また、テーブルロール19は、その内部に水26が、ストリップ3を冷却できるように流通可能に形成されている。
【0065】
軸箱20は、各テーブルロール19に対応するように、架台23の桁材47に取り付けられ、各テーブルロール19の端部を枢支している。
【0066】
また、構体22の一側方の軸箱20には、テーブルロール19を駆動するためのモータ48が付帯している。
【0067】
弾性シール部材21は、テーブルロール19の各端部を周方向に取り囲むように配置されている。
【0068】
この弾性シール部材21には、金属製のベローズを用いている。
【0069】
弾性シール部材21の一端全周は、軸箱20の端面に気密に固着され、また、弾性シール部材21の他端全周は、側部パネル15に対して開口14を周方向に取り囲むように気密に固着されており、当該弾性シール部材21によって、構体22の内部に送給した不活性ガスG(図5参照)が、開口14を経て外部へ流出することを抑止している。
【0070】
このように、図1乃至図4に示すチャンバにおいては、下部パネル13、側部パネル15、上部パネル17、及び端部パネル25のそれぞれの内部に形成した通路に水26を連続的に送給して、ストリップ3の搬送に起因したパネル13,15,17,25の熱変形を抑制するので、これら部材に塑性変形が発生せず、よって、構体22内部のストリップ3の搬送経路を無酸化雰囲気に保持することができる。
【0071】
また、点検蓋18の内部に形成した通路に水26を連続的に送給して、点検蓋18の熱変形を抑制し、パネル側シール部材43の間の溝42に貯留した封鎖材41中に蓋側シール部材44をめり込ませるので、上部パネル17と点検蓋18と間の気密性を保持することができる。
【0072】
更に、テーブルロール19の端部付近を弾性シール部材21で取り囲み、弾性シール部材21の一端全周を軸箱20に固着し、弾性シール部材21の他端全周を、開口14を取り囲むように側部パネル15に固着しているので、構体22の外部にテーブルロール19を駆動するためのモータ48を設けても、ストリップ3の搬送経路を外気から遮断することができる。
【0073】
なお、本発明のチャンバは、上述の実施の形態のみに限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲において変更を加え得ることは勿論である。
【0074】
【発明の効果】
以上述べたように、本発明のチャンバによれば下記のような種々の優れた効果を奏し得る。

Each of the panels 13, 15, 17, 25 and the inspection lid 18 has a double wall structure in which a passage through which water (cooling fluid) 26 can flow is formed.
[0044]
The double wall structure will be described by taking the side panel 15 as an example. The side panel 15 has a pair of wall plates 27 and 28 in which a plurality of openings 14 are formed in a row near the lower edge and are formed in a line. And an annular liquid-tight wall 29 located between the two wall plates 27 and 28 so as to surround the opening 14 and fixed to the wall plates 27 and 28, and fixed to the peripheral edges of the two wall plates 27 and 28 over the entire circumference. It has a liquid-tight wall 30 and a partition wall 31 located near the upper edge between the two wall plates 27 and 28 and forming a bent passage.
[0045]
An outlet 32 for supplying water 26 to the outside from one upper corner of the side panel 15 is formed in the wall plate 27.

A panel-side sealing member 43 is fixed to the upper surface of the upper panel 17 so as to surround the entire periphery of the inspection port 16 and form two grooves 42 in which the sealing material 41 can be stored.
[0054]
As the sealing material 41, an amorphous substance having fluidity, that is, a powdery material such as sand, or a liquid such as water is used.
[0055]
When a powder such as sand is used for the sealing material 41, the replenishment of the sealing material 41 can be reduced because the material is not consumed by evaporation.
[0056]
When a liquid such as water is used for the sealing material 41, the sealing material 41 has excellent fluidity, so that the sealing material 41 can be easily and uniformly refilled into the groove 42.
[0057]
A lid-side seal member 44 that can be fitted into each of the grooves 42 is fixed to the entire periphery of the lower surface of the inspection lid 18 over its entire periphery.
[0058]
One end of the inspection lid 18 is fastened to a support shaft 45 that is disposed near the inspection port 16 and extends substantially horizontally in the lateral direction.

Thereby, according to the operation of the cylinder, the inspection lid 18 is inserted from the position where the lid-side sealing member 44 is fitted into the entire circumference of the groove 42 and is inserted into the sealing material 41, and the inspection opening 16 is airtightly closed. It rotates between the position where the inspection port 16 is opened at a distance.
[0062]
In addition, since the panel-side sealing member 43 forming the two grooves 42 and the lid-side sealing member 44 that can be fitted into each groove 42 multiplex the air-tightness maintenance boundary, the air-tightness of the inspection lid 18 with respect to the structure 22 is provided. Can be improved.
[0063]
The table roll 19 is inserted into the opening 14 of the side panel 15 so that its end protrudes outside the structure 22.
[0064]
The table roll 19 is formed so that water 26 can be circulated therein so that the strip 3 can be cooled.
[0065]
The axle box 20 is attached to the beam 47 of the gantry 23 so as to correspond to each table roll 19, and pivotally supports the end of each table roll 19.
[0066]
Further, a motor 48 for driving the table roll 19 is attached to the axle box 20 on one side of the structure 22.
[0067]
The elastic seal member 21 is arranged so as to surround each end of the table roll 19 in the circumferential direction.
[0068]
A metal bellows is used for the elastic seal member 21.
[0069]
The entire circumference of one end of the elastic seal member 21 is hermetically fixed to the end face of the shaft box 20, and the entire circumference of the other end of the elastic seal member 21 surrounds the opening 14 with respect to the side panel 15 in the circumferential direction. The inert gas G (see FIG. 5) fed into the structure 22 is prevented from flowing out through the opening 14 to the outside by the elastic seal member 21.
[0070]
As described above, in the chamber shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the water 26 is continuously supplied to the passages formed inside the lower panel 13, the side panel 15, the upper panel 17, and the end panel 25. Since the thermal deformation of the panels 13, 15, 17, and 25 caused by the transport of the strip 3 is suppressed, plastic deformation does not occur in these members, and therefore, the transport path of the strip 3 inside the structure 22 is non-oxidized. The atmosphere can be maintained.
[0071]
Further, the water 26 is continuously supplied to the passage formed inside the inspection lid 18 to suppress the thermal deformation of the inspection lid 18, and the sealing material 41 stored in the groove 42 between the panel-side sealing members 43 is formed. Since the lid-side sealing member 44 is sunk into the lid, airtightness between the upper panel 17 and the inspection lid 18 can be maintained.
[0072]
Further, the vicinity of the end of the table roll 19 is surrounded by an elastic seal member 21, one end of the entire elastic seal member 21 is fixed to the axle box 20, and the entire other end of the elastic seal member 21 surrounds the opening 14. Since it is fixed to the side panel 15, even if a motor 48 for driving the table roll 19 is provided outside the structure 22, the transport path of the strip 3 can be shielded from the outside air.
[0073]
It should be noted that the chamber of the present invention is not limited to only the above-described embodiment, and it is needless to say that changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
