Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、普通鋼、ステンレス鋼、合金鋼、珪素鋼及びその他の鋼や合金、金属の溶湯から、直接、薄肉鋳片を鋳造する、単ドラム式連続鋳造機または双ドラム式連続鋳造機の冷却ドラムの表面構造に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一対の冷却ドラム(以下「ドラム」ということがある。)を備えた双ドラム式連続鋳造装置、または、一個の冷却ドラムを備えた単ドラム式連続鋳造装置により、板厚1〜10mmの薄肉鋳片(以下「鋳片」ということがある。)を連続鋳造する技術が開発されている。
【0003】
この技術は、最終製品に近い形状と肉厚の薄肉鋳片を製造するものであるから、歩留り良く、所要レベルの品質を有する最終製品を最終的に得るために、該技術に対しては、割れや亀裂等の表面欠陥が皆無の薄肉鋳片を製造することが不可欠のこととして要求される。
この表面欠陥は、薄肉鋳片を鋳造する際、冷却ドラムの表面における凝固シェルの生成が一様でないこと、即ち、溶湯の急冷凝固の態様が一様でないことに起因して生じる熱収縮応力の不均衡に基づいて形成されることが知られていて、これまで、この熱収縮応力の不均衡が鋳片内部に極力残らないように溶湯を冷却、凝固せしめる冷却ドラムの周面構造が種々提案されている。
【0004】
例えば、特開平4−238651号公報には、周面に50〜200μmの深さの窪みを15〜30%の面積率で形成するとともに、10〜50μmの深さの窪みを40〜60%の面積率で形成した連続鋳造用の冷却ドラムが開示されている。また、特開平6−328204号公報には、周面に直径100〜300μm、深さ100〜500μmの窪みを15〜50%の面積率で形成するとともに、直径400〜1000μm、深さ10〜100μm、周面の接線に対し垂直な線と窪みの側面とのなす角度が45〜75°の窪みを40〜60%の面積率で形成した連続鋳造用の冷却ドラムが開示されている。
【0005】
そして、これらの冷却ドラムは、鋳片表面における表面割れや亀裂の発生を抑制するとともに、もう一方の代表的な表面欠陥である酸洗むらの発生を抑制するもので、光沢むらのないステンレス鋼薄板製品を製造する上において、顕著な効果を奏するものである。
また、特開平11−179494号公報には、周面に多数の突起(好ましくは、高さ20μm以上、直径0.2〜1.0mm、最近接間隔0.2〜1.0mm)を形成した連続鋳造用の冷却ドラムが開示されている。この冷却ドラムは、薄肉鋳片の連続鋳造において、表面欠陥を皆無に近い状態にまで抑制できるものである。
【0006】
このように、板厚1〜10mmの薄肉鋳片を連続鋳造する技術においては、冷却ドラムの周面構造を改善・工夫することにより、酸洗むらを含む表面欠陥の発生を抑制するのに、大きな成功を納めている。
しかしながら、操業中、冷却ドラムとその両側に当接するサイド堰で形成される溶鋼を受容する湯溜まり部を不活性雰囲気で包囲し、スカムの生成をできるだけ抑制しても、溶鋼の内部から、介在物や混入したスラグが浮上したりして、相当量のスカムが、溶鋼表面上に浮遊し、凝集することは避けられない。そして、このスカムが冷却ドラムと溶鋼の間に巻き込まれて、薄肉鋳片の表面に酸洗むらが発現する。
【0007】
この酸洗むらの部分は、最終薄板製品においては、光沢むらとして発現し、製品素材としての価値を低めるから、最終薄板製品の品質と歩留りを、さらに高めるためには、薄肉鋳片を連続鋳造する際、スカムの生成を極力抑制することに加え、スカムが巻き込まれても、薄肉鋳片に酸洗むらが発生するのを極力抑制できる、できれば該発生を皆無にする、何らかの対策が必要である。
【0008】
そこで、本発明者は、その対策を探るべく、酸洗むらが発現した薄肉鋳片ついて詳細に調査した。その結果、本発明者は、酸洗むらが発現した領域とそうでない領域との境界近傍に、従前知られている表面割れとは形態の異なる“割れ”が発生しているのを発見した。この“割れ”(以下「酸洗むら付随割れ」という。)を、図1に示す。
【0009】
図1から分かるように、“酸洗むら付随割れ”は、酸洗むらの発生していない部位で発生する表面割れ(以下「ディンプル割れ」ということがある。)とは、当然に、割れの起源、位置、形態等の点で異質なものである。
したがって、これまでの手段では、上記異質な“酸洗むら付随割れ”を防止することは困難である。
【0010】
このように、薄肉鋳片の連続鋳造においては、“ディンプル割れ”及び“酸洗むら”の発生を抑制するという課題の他に、これらとは異質の“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生を抑制するという課題を、新たに抱えることになった。
【0011】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
そこで、本発明は、薄肉鋳片の連続鋳造において、“ディンプル割れ”の発生を抑制するとともに、“酸洗むら”及び“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生を抑制することを課題とし、該課題を、溶鋼の凝固態様に大きく影響する冷却ドラムの周面構造の点から解決することを目的とするものである。
【0012】
【課題を解決するための手段】
酸洗むらは、スカムが付着した部位の溶鋼の凝固が遅くれ、その結果、スカム付着部の凝固組織が、その周辺の凝固組織と異なるものになることに起因して、酸洗後、鋳片表面に“むら”として発現したものであるから、冷却ドラムの表面上での溶鋼の凝固態様が、“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生にも、大きく関与しているものと推測される。
【0013】
そこで、本発明者は、まず、図1に示すような“酸洗むら付随割れ”が発生した薄肉鋳片の凝固態様について調査したところ、“酸洗むら付随割れ”は、基本的には、スカムの流入、付着によって、冷却ドラムと溶鋼との界面における熱抵抗が変化し、スカムが付着した部位とそうでない部位とで、形成される凝固シェルの厚さに差が生じることに起因するものであるところ、具体的には、凝固シェル厚の不均一度が20%を超える部位で発生していることが判明した。
【0014】
図2に、その発生機構を模式的に示す。スカム1が付着した部位では、冷却ドラム10と溶鋼9との界面における熱抵抗が変化し、溶鋼の凝固が遅れるので、凝固シェル2の厚さは、他の部位における凝固シェルの厚さより薄いものとなるが、スカム1とディンプル3の凹面との間に形成されるガスギャップ4との相乗作用により、厚い凝固シェルと薄い凝固シェルとの境界部(凝固シェル厚の不均一部分)に、“歪み”が発生し、蓄積される。そして、この凝固シェル厚の不均一度が、20%を超えると、図2に示すように、上記境界部で、“酸洗むら付随割れ5”が発生する。
【0015】
上記のように、“酸洗むら付随割れ5”の原因となる“歪み”の発生、蓄積には、スカム1とディンプル3の凹部との間に形成されるガスギャップ4の存在も関連しているので、本発明者は、さらに、ディンプルの“深さ”を変えることにより溶鋼の凝固態様を変化させ、凝固態様の変化(この変化を示す指標として、“ディンプル深さ”を用いた。)と、“ディンプル割れ”及び“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生状況(発生状況を示す指標として、“割れ長さ”を用いた。)との関連性を調査した。
【0016】
その結果を、図3に示す。この図によれば、ディンプル深さ(μm)を深くすれば、“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生を防止できるが、逆に、“ディンプル割れ”の発生を助長することが分かる。
このように、本発明者は、“ディンプル割れ”と“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生もしくは発生抑制は、冷却ドラムの周面に形成したディンプルの深さとの関係でみると、トレードオフの関係にあることを見いだした。
【0017】
ここで、図4に、“ディンプル割れ”の発生機構を模式的に示す。ディンプル3の頂部に当接した溶鋼部位に凝固核が生成し(図中「6」参照)、ここから凝固が進行するが、ディンプル3の凹部に侵入して形成される溶鋼の凸部7が凝固するとき、凝固はディンプル単位で比べると不均一であり、この不均一に起因して、ディンプル単位毎に不均一応力・歪みが蓄積される。そして、この不均一応力・歪みが原因となって、“ディンプル割れ8”が発生する。
【0018】
溶鋼の凸部7が凝固するとき、スカム1が付着した部位では、スカムが熱抵抗となり、当然に凝固が遅れるが、この場合、凝固の遅れにより、上記不均一応力・歪みが緩和される。
以上の調査結果から得られた知見をまとめると、以下のとおりである。
(a)溶鋼は、ディンプルの頂部に接触するが、その底部には接触しないか、接触しても一部分である。
(b)ディンプルの頂部に接触した溶鋼は、頂部に非接触の溶鋼より速く凝固する。
(c)ディンプルの底部に接触しない溶鋼においては、核生成が遅れて、凝固が遅れる。
(d)溶鋼の凝固は、ディンプル単位で比べると不均一であり、この不均一に起因する不均一応力・歪みが、ディンプル単位毎に蓄積される。これが、“ディンプル割れ”の原因となる。
(e)スカムが付着した溶鋼では凝固が遅れ、そうでない溶鋼の凝固部分との境界に、不均一応力・歪みが蓄積される。これが、“酸洗むら付随割れ”の原因となる。
(f)“ディンプル深さ”さが深ければ、スカム付着による溶鋼の凝固遅れで生じる不均一応力・歪みの蓄積は緩和されるが、逆に、ディンプル単位毎の不均一応力・歪みの蓄積が助長され、“ディンプル割れ”が頻発する。
【0019】
“ディンプル割れ”と“酸洗むら付随割れ”が、いずれも冷却ドラム表面での“溶鋼の凝固態様”と密接に関連していることは明らかであるところ、本発明者は、これらの知見に基づき、ディンプルの形態において、まず、“酸洗むら”及び“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生を抑制するのに充分な“ディンプル深さ”を確保し、この“ディンプル深さ”を前提に、ディンプルの表面に、
(x)頂部に当接した溶鋼の凝固を遅らせ、かつ、
(y)底部に当接した溶鋼の凝固を促進する、
機能を付与すれば、ディンプル単位毎に発生、蓄積する不均一応力・歪みを低減することができ、“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生と“ディンプル割れ”の発生の両方を抑制できるのではないかとの発想に至った。
【0020】
そして、本発明者は、上記発想の下において、冷却ドラムの周面に形成するディンプルにおいて、上記(x)及び(y)の機能を果たす表面形態について、種々調査した。その結果、ディンプルの頂部に、所定形状の“丸み”をつけるか、もしくは、所定形状の“細孔”を形成すると、ディンプルの頂部に当接した溶鋼の凝固を遅らせることができることを知見した。
【0021】
また、ディンプルの頂部に“丸み”をつけたり、“細孔”を形成したりすると、溶鋼は、溶鋼の静圧や冷却ドラムの圧下力の下で、容易にディンプルの底部に当接し、発生した凝固核を起点にして凝固するが、ディンプルの底部に、所定形状の“微小突起”、“細孔”または“微小凹凸”を形成しておくと、凝固核の発生が促進されて、溶鋼の凝固がより速く進行することを知見した。
【0022】
本発明は、以上の知見に基づき、さらにディンプルの形状と、ディンプルの頂部に形成する“丸み”や“細孔”の形状、また、ディンプルの底部に形成する“微小突起”、“細孔”もしくは“微小凹凸”の形状との好ましい関係を確認してなされたものである。

【0025】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明について、さらに詳細に説明する。
本発明は、周面に、所定形状の窪みが、窪みの頂部を介して相互に隣接して形成されている冷却ドラムにおいて、ディンプル(窪み)の頂部及び/またはディンプル(窪み)の表面に、微小突起、細孔または微細凹凸を形成することを基本的な技術思想とする。
【0026】
これは、前記知見に従い、ディンプルの頂部に、微小突起または細孔を形成することにより、溶鋼の凝固を遅らせる機能を付与し、また、ディンプルの表面に、微小突起、細孔または微細凹凸を形成することにより、溶鋼の凝固を促進する機能を付与したものである。
ディンプルを形成したままのディンプルの頂部は、鋭角的な形状をなしているが、該頂部に、多数の微小突起を形成すると、該微小突起は、狭い鋭角的形状の頂部で相互に連続した態様で形成されるので、ディンプルの頂部は“丸み”を帯びることになる。
【0027】
上記“丸み”を帯びたディンプル頂部は、該頂部に当接した溶鋼における凝固核の生成を遅延せしめ、溶鋼の凝固の進行を遅くらせる作用をなす。また、上記“丸み”を帯びた頂部は、ディンプルの底部に溶鋼が侵入するのを促進する作用をなす。その結果、溶鋼は、溶鋼の静圧や冷却ドラムの圧下力の下で、容易にディンプルの底部に当接することになる。
【0028】
鋭角的な形状のディンプル頂部に細孔を形成すると、該鋭角的な形状が消滅するとともに、ガスを保持する緩冷却部が形成されるので、“細孔”を有するディンプル頂部は、該頂部に当接した溶鋼における凝固核の生成を遅延せしめ、溶鋼の凝固の進行を遅くらせる作用をなす。
また、ディンプル頂部における細孔の存在により、ディンプルの底部に溶鋼が侵入するのが促進され、同様に、溶鋼の静圧や冷却ドラムの圧下力の下で、容易にディンプルの底部に当接することになる。
【0029】
なお、ディンプルの頂部に、微小凹凸を形成すると、上記“丸み”の機能と、上記“細孔”の機能を併せ持つことになる。
一方、ディンプルの底部表面に形成した“微小突起”、“細孔”または“微細凹凸”は、該表面に当接した溶鋼における凝固核の生成を促進し、溶鋼の凝固を促進する作用をなす。
【0030】
このように、本発明の薄肉鋳片連続鋳造用冷却ドラム(以下「本発明の冷却ドラム」という。)は、“酸洗むら”及び“酸洗むら付随割れ”の発生を抑制するのに充分な“ディンプル深さ”を確保したうえ、ディンプルの頂部においては、溶鋼の凝固を遅らせるとともに、ディンプル底部への溶鋼の侵入を促進し、かつ、ディンプルの底部表面においては、侵入して該表面に当接した溶鋼の凝固を促進する機能を有するものである。
【0031】
したがって、本発明の冷却ドラムにおいては、冷却ドラム周面上での凝固の態様が均一化されているから、従来、ディンプルの単位毎に発生し、蓄積される不均一応力・歪み(“ディンプル割れ”の原因となる。)は低減されることになる。
また、本発明の冷却ドラムにおいては、かりに、冷却ドラムと溶鋼との間にスカムが巻き込まれ、スカムが付着した溶鋼部分の凝固が遅れ、スカム付着部位で、薄い凝固シェルが形成されたとしても、凝固シェル厚の不均一度は20%以下に抑制されるから、凝固シェル厚の不均一部分に発生し、蓄積される“歪み”(“酸洗むら付随割れ”の原因となる。)は低減されることになる。
【0032】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a single-drum continuous casting machine or a twin-drum continuous casting machine that casts a thin-walled slab directly from ordinary steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, silicon steel and other steels, alloys, and molten metal. The present invention relates to the surface structure of the cooling drum.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Thin-wall casting with a plate thickness of 1 to 10 mm by a twin-drum continuous casting apparatus equipped with a pair of cooling drums (hereinafter also referred to as “drums”) or a single-drum continuous casting apparatus equipped with a single cooling drum. A technique for continuously casting a piece (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “slab”) has been developed.
[0003]
Since this technique produces a thin cast slab having a shape and thickness close to that of the final product, in order to finally obtain a final product with a high yield and a required level of quality, It is essential to produce a thin cast slab having no surface defects such as cracks and cracks.
This surface defect is caused by heat shrinkage stress caused by non-uniform formation of solidified shells on the surface of the cooling drum when casting a thin slab, that is, the form of rapid solidification of the molten metal. It has been known that it is formed on the basis of imbalance, and various proposals have been made on the peripheral structure of the cooling drum that cools and solidifies the molten metal so that this imbalance of heat shrinkage stress does not remain inside the slab as much as possible. Has been.
[0004]
For example, in JP-A-4-238651, a recess having a depth of 50 to 200 μm is formed on the peripheral surface at an area ratio of 15 to 30%, and a recess having a depth of 10 to 50 μm is formed to 40 to 60%. A cooling drum for continuous casting formed with an area ratio is disclosed. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-328204 discloses a recess having a diameter of 100 to 300 μm and a depth of 100 to 500 μm formed on the peripheral surface with an area ratio of 15 to 50%, and a diameter of 400 to 1000 μm and a depth of 10 to 100 μm. A cooling drum for continuous casting is disclosed in which a depression having an angle of 45 to 75 ° formed by a line perpendicular to the tangential line of the peripheral surface and a side surface of the depression is formed at an area ratio of 40 to 60%.
[0005]
These cooling drums suppress the occurrence of surface cracks and cracks on the surface of the slab, and also suppress the occurrence of pickling unevenness, which is another typical surface defect. In producing a thin plate product, there is a remarkable effect.
In JP-A-11-179494, a large number of protrusions (preferably a height of 20 μm or more, a diameter of 0.2 to 1.0 mm, and a closest interval of 0.2 to 1.0 mm) are formed on the peripheral surface. A cooling drum for continuous casting is disclosed. This cooling drum can suppress surface defects to almost none in continuous casting of thin cast slabs.
[0006]
Thus, in the technique of continuously casting thin cast pieces having a thickness of 1 to 10 mm, by improving and devising the peripheral structure of the cooling drum, to suppress the occurrence of surface defects including pickling unevenness, With great success.
However, during operation, even if the hot water reservoir that receives the molten steel formed by the cooling drum and the side weirs abutting on both sides of the cooling drum is surrounded by an inert atmosphere and the generation of scum is suppressed as much as possible, intervening from the inside of the molten steel It is inevitable that a considerable amount of scum floats on the surface of the molten steel and agglomerates due to the floating of objects and mixed slag. And this scum is wound between a cooling drum and molten steel, and pickling unevenness appears on the surface of a thin cast slab.
[0007]
This pickling unevenness part is manifested as gloss unevenness in the final thin plate product and decreases its value as a product material. Therefore, in order to further improve the quality and yield of the final thin plate product, continuous casting of thin slabs In addition to suppressing the generation of scum as much as possible, even if the scum is caught, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of pickling unevenness in the thin cast slab as much as possible. is there.
[0008]
Therefore, the present inventor investigated in detail the thin-walled slab in which pickling unevenness was developed in order to find out the countermeasure. As a result, the present inventor has discovered that a “crack” having a form different from that of the conventionally known surface crack is generated in the vicinity of the boundary between the region where pickling unevenness appears and the region where the pickling unevenness does not occur. FIG. 1 shows this “crack” (hereinafter referred to as “accompanied crack pickling”).
[0009]
As can be seen from FIG. 1, “accompaniment crack” is a surface crack (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as “dimple crack”) that occurs in a portion where no pickling occurs. It is different in terms of origin, position, form, etc.
Therefore, it is difficult to prevent the above-mentioned extraneous “pickling accompanied by pickling” with the conventional means.
[0010]
In this way, in continuous casting of thin-walled slabs, in addition to the problem of suppressing the occurrence of “dimple cracking” and “pickling unevenness”, the occurrence of “cracking accompanied by pickling unevenness” that is different from these is suppressed. I had a new problem to do.
[0011]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Accordingly, the present invention has an object to suppress the occurrence of “dimple cracking” and the occurrence of “pickling unevenness” and “pickling accompanying cracking” in continuous casting of thin-walled slabs. Is intended to solve this problem from the viewpoint of the peripheral structure of the cooling drum that greatly affects the solidification mode of the molten steel.
[0012]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
For pickling, the solidification of the molten steel at the site where the scum adheres is delayed, and as a result, the solidification structure of the scum adhesion part is different from the surrounding solidification structure. Since it appears as “unevenness” on one surface, it is presumed that the solidification mode of the molten steel on the surface of the cooling drum is also greatly involved in the occurrence of “uneven cracking associated with pickling”.
[0013]
Therefore, the present inventor first investigated the solidification mode of the thin-walled slab in which the “acid pickling uneven crack” as shown in FIG. 1 occurred. Due to the inflow and adhesion of scum, the thermal resistance at the interface between the cooling drum and molten steel changes, resulting in a difference in the thickness of the solidified shell formed between the part where the scum is attached and the part where it is not. Thus, specifically, it has been found that the non-uniformity of the solidified shell thickness occurs at a site exceeding 20%.
[0014]
FIG. 2 schematically shows the generation mechanism. In the part where the scum 1 is adhered, the thermal resistance at the interface between the cooling drum 10 and the molten steel 9 changes, and the solidification of the molten steel is delayed. Therefore, the thickness of the solidified shell 2 is thinner than the thickness of the solidified shell in other parts. However, due to the synergistic action of the gas gap 4 formed between the scum 1 and the concave surface of the dimple 3, the boundary between the thick solidified shell and the thin solidified shell (uneven portion of the solidified shell thickness) Distortion "occurs and accumulates. If the non-uniformity of the thickness of the solidified shell exceeds 20%, as shown in FIG. 2, “accompanied crack 5 associated with pickling” occurs at the boundary.
[0015]
As described above, the occurrence and accumulation of “strain” that causes “accompaniment crack 5” is related to the existence of the gas gap 4 formed between the scum 1 and the dimple 3 recess. Therefore, the inventor further changed the solidification mode of the molten steel by changing the “depth” of the dimple, and changed the solidification mode (“dimple depth” was used as an index indicating this change). And the relationship between the occurrence of “dimple cracking” and “accompanied crack pickling” (“crack length” was used as an indicator of the occurrence).
[0016]
The result is shown in FIG. According to this figure, it can be seen that if the dimple depth (μm) is increased, the occurrence of “accompaniment cracks” can be prevented, but conversely, the occurrence of “dimple cracks” is promoted.
Thus, the present inventor has found that the occurrence or suppression of “dimple cracking” and “accompanied crack pickling” is a trade-off relationship when viewed in relation to the depth of the dimple formed on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum. I found out that
[0017]
Here, FIG. 4 schematically shows a generation mechanism of “dimple cracking”. Solidification nuclei are generated in the molten steel portion in contact with the top of the dimple 3 (see “6” in the figure), and solidification proceeds from here, but the convex portion 7 of the molten steel formed by entering the concave portion of the dimple 3 is formed. When solidifying, solidification is non-uniform compared to dimple units, and due to this non-uniformity, non-uniform stress / strain accumulates for each dimple unit. The “dimple crack 8” occurs due to the non-uniform stress / strain.
[0018]
When the convex portion 7 of the molten steel is solidified, the scum becomes a thermal resistance in the portion where the scum 1 is adhered, and naturally solidification is delayed. In this case, the uneven stress and strain are alleviated due to the solidification delay.
The findings obtained from the above survey results are summarized as follows.
(A) Although molten steel contacts the top part of a dimple, it does not contact the bottom part, or it is a part even if it contacts.
(B) Molten steel that contacts the top of the dimple solidifies faster than molten steel that does not contact the top.
(C) In molten steel that does not contact the bottom of the dimple, nucleation is delayed and solidification is delayed.
(D) Solidification of molten steel is non-uniform compared to dimple units, and non-uniform stress / strain caused by this non-uniformity is accumulated for each dimple unit. This causes “dimple cracking”.
(E) Solidification is delayed in molten steel to which scum is attached, and uneven stress and strain are accumulated at the boundary with the solidified portion of the molten steel that is not. This causes “accompaniment cracking”.
(F) If the “dimple depth” is deep, the accumulation of non-uniform stress / strain caused by the solidification delay of molten steel due to scum adhesion is alleviated, but conversely, the accumulation of non-uniform stress / strain for each dimple unit is reduced. Encouraged, "dimple cracks" occur frequently.
[0019]
It is clear that “dimple cracking” and “cracking crack accompanying cracks” are both closely related to “solidification mode of molten steel” on the surface of the cooling drum. On the basis of the dimple form, first, “dimple depth” sufficient to suppress the occurrence of “pickling unevenness” and “cracking accompanied by pickling unevenness” is secured, and on the premise of this “dimple depth” On the surface of the dimple,
(X) delay the solidification of the molten steel in contact with the top, and
(Y) promote solidification of the molten steel in contact with the bottom,
If the function is added, it is possible to reduce the uneven stress / strain that occurs and accumulates for each dimple unit, and it is not possible to suppress both the occurrence of “cracking accompanying cracks” and the occurrence of “dimple cracks”. I came up with the idea of heels.
[0020]
Then, the inventor conducted various investigations on the surface forms that fulfill the functions (x) and (y) in the dimples formed on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum under the above idea. As a result, it has been found that solidification of molten steel abutting on the top of the dimple can be delayed by forming a “round” having a predetermined shape on the top of the dimple or forming a “pore” having a predetermined shape.
[0021]
Also, when the top of the dimple is “rounded” or “pores” are formed, the molten steel easily abuts against the bottom of the dimple under the static pressure of the molten steel or the cooling force of the cooling drum. Solidification starts from the solidification nuclei. However, if “microprojections”, “pores” or “micro unevenness” with a predetermined shape is formed at the bottom of the dimple, the generation of solidification nuclei is promoted and the molten steel It was found that coagulation proceeds faster.
[0022]
Based on the above knowledge, the present invention further includes the shape of the dimple, the shape of “roundness” or “pore” formed at the top of the dimple, and the “microprojection” or “pore” formed at the bottom of the dimple. Or, it was made by confirming a preferable relationship with the shape of the “micro unevenness”.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention will be described in further detail.
The present invention provides a cooling drum in which depressions of a predetermined shape are formed adjacent to each other through the tops of the depressions on the peripheral surface, and / or on the tops of the dimples (or depressions), The basic technical idea is to form minute protrusions, pores or minute irregularities.
[0026]
In accordance with the above knowledge, this provides the function of delaying solidification of the molten steel by forming microprojections or pores on the top of the dimples, and also forms microprojections, pores or micro unevenness on the surface of the dimples. By doing this, the function which accelerates | stimulates solidification of molten steel is provided.
The top of the dimple with the dimples formed has an acute shape, but when a large number of microprojections are formed on the top, the microprojections are continuous with each other at the top of the narrow acute shape. Therefore, the top of the dimple is rounded.
[0027]
The “round” dimple top portion delays the formation of solidification nuclei in the molten steel in contact with the top portion, thereby slowing the progress of solidification of the molten steel. Further, the “rounded” top portion promotes the penetration of the molten steel into the bottom portion of the dimple. As a result, the molten steel easily comes into contact with the bottom of the dimple under the static pressure of the molten steel or the reduction force of the cooling drum.
[0028]
When pores are formed at the top of the dimple having an acute shape, the sharp shape disappears and a slow cooling portion for holding gas is formed. Therefore, the dimple top having “pores” is formed at the top. It delays the formation of solidification nuclei in the abutting molten steel, and slows the progress of solidification of the molten steel.
In addition, the presence of pores at the top of the dimple promotes the penetration of the molten steel into the bottom of the dimple, and similarly, it can easily abut against the bottom of the dimple under the static pressure of the molten steel or the cooling force of the cooling drum. become.
[0029]
In addition, when the minute unevenness is formed on the top of the dimple, the “round” function and the “pore” function are combined.
On the other hand, “microprotrusions”, “pores” or “fine irregularities” formed on the bottom surface of the dimple promotes the formation of solidification nuclei in the molten steel in contact with the surface and promotes the solidification of the molten steel. .
[0030]
As described above, the cooling drum for continuous casting of the thin slab of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as “cooling drum of the present invention”) is sufficient to suppress the occurrence of “pickling unevenness” and “pickling accompanied by pickling unevenness”. In addition to ensuring a sufficient “dimple depth”, solidification of the molten steel is delayed at the top of the dimple, and the penetration of the molten steel into the bottom of the dimple is promoted. It has a function of promoting solidification of the molten steel that has come into contact.
[0031]
Therefore, in the cooling drum of the present invention, since the solidification mode on the circumferential surface of the cooling drum is uniform, conventionally, the nonuniform stress and strain ("dimple cracking" generated and accumulated for each unit of the dimple is conventionally generated. Will be reduced.).
Further, in the cooling drum of the present invention, even if the scum is caught between the cooling drum and the molten steel in the balance, the solidification of the molten steel portion to which the scum adheres is delayed, and a thin solidified shell is formed at the scum adhesion portion. Further, since the non-uniformity of the solidified shell thickness is suppressed to 20% or less, the “strain” (causing “accompaniment cracking”) that occurs and accumulates in the nonuniform portion of the solidified shell thickness. Will be reduced.
[0032]
In the cooling drum of the present invention, recesses having an average depth of 40 to 200 μm and a circle-equivalent diameter of 0.5 to 3 mm are formed adjacent to each other via the tops of the recesses. It is preferable.
If the average depth of the dents (dimples) is less than 40 μm, the effect of mitigating macro stress / strain by dimples cannot be obtained, so the lower limit is set to 40 μm. On the other hand, if the average depth of the dimples exceeds 200 μm, the penetration of the molten steel into the dimple bottom becomes insufficient, so the upper limit is 200 μm.
[0033]
The size of the recess is preferably 0.5 to 3 mm in diameter corresponding to a circle. If the diameter is less than 0.5 mm, the penetration of molten steel into the dimple bottom becomes insufficient, so the lower limit is set to 0.5 mm. On the other hand, if the diameter corresponding to the circle exceeds 3 mm, accumulation of stress / strain in the dimple unit increases and dimple cracking is likely to occur, so the upper limit is set to 3 mm.
[0034]
Then, it is preferable to form “microprojections”, “pores”, or “fine irregularities” of a required shape on the surface of the recess having the above shape. Hereinafter, those required shapes will be described.
(A) Micro protrusion
A minute protrusion having a height of 1 to 50 μm and a diameter corresponding to a circle of 5 to 200 μm is formed on the surface of the recess having the above shape.
[0035]
If the height is less than 1 μm, the protrusions cannot sufficiently contact the molten steel, and solidification nuclei do not occur, so the lower limit is set to 1 μm. On the other hand, if the height exceeds 50 μm, solidification of the molten steel at the bottom of the projection is delayed and non-uniformity of the solidified shell in the recess occurs, so the upper limit is set to 50 μm.
If the diameter corresponding to the circle is less than 5 μm, cooling at the protrusions is insufficient and solidification nuclei are not generated, so the lower limit is set to 5 μm. On the other hand, when the diameter corresponding to the circle exceeds 200 μm, a portion where the molten steel is not sufficiently in contact with the protrusion is generated, and the generation of solidified nuclei becomes nonuniform, so the upper limit is 200 μm.
(B) Pore
A pore having a depth of 5 μm or more and a diameter corresponding to a circle of 5 to 200 μm is formed on the surface of the recess having the above shape.
[0036]
If the depth is less than 5 μm, the air gap is not sufficiently generated in the pores, and the formation of solidified nuclei on the depression surface other than the pores cannot be achieved. Therefore, the lower limit is set to 5 μm.
Further, if the diameter corresponding to the circle is less than 5 μm, the cooling relaxation effect in the pores is not sufficiently exhibited, and the generation of solidification nuclei cannot be limited to the recessed surface other than the pores, so the lower limit is 5 μm. . On the other hand, when the equivalent circle diameter exceeds 200 μm, the molten steel penetrates into the pores, and the molten steel that has entered solidifies and consolidates the solidified shell, concentrating strain and promoting the occurrence of cracks. 200 μm.
(C) Fine irregularities
Fine irregularities having an average depth of 1 to 50 μm and a circle-equivalent diameter of 10 to 200 μm are formed on the surface of the recess having the above shape.
[0037]
If the average depth is less than 1 μm, solidification nuclei are not generated in the concavo-convex portion, so the lower limit is 1 μm. On the other hand, if the average depth exceeds 50 μm, solidification at the bottom of the unevenness is delayed and non-uniformity of the solidified shell in the recess occurs, so the upper limit is set to 50 μm.
Moreover, since the production | generation of the solidification nucleus in an uneven | corrugated | grooved part does not occur that the diameter equivalent to a circle is less than 10 μm, the lower limit is set to 10 μm. On the other hand, when the diameter corresponding to the circle exceeds 200 μm, a portion where the molten steel is not sufficiently in contact with the uneven portion is generated, and the generation of solidified nuclei becomes non-uniform.
[0038]
Furthermore, in the cooling drum of the present invention, a recess having an average depth of 40 to 200 μm and a circle-equivalent diameter of 0.5 to 3 mm is formed on the circumferential surface thereof adjacent to each other via the top of the recess. It is preferable that minute protrusions having a required shape are formed adjacent to the top of "", and the "top" is rounded, or "pores" having the required shape are formed. Those required shapes will be described.
(D) Minute protrusion
A minute protrusion having a height of 1 to 50 μm and a circle-equivalent diameter of 30 to 200 μm is formed adjacent to the top of the depression having the above shape.
[0039]
If the height is less than 1 μm, the effect of delaying solidification nucleation at the top of the temple is not obtained, so the lower limit is 1 μm. On the other hand, if the height exceeds 50 μm, the penetration of the molten steel into the dimple bottom becomes insufficient, so the upper limit is made 50 μm.
If the equivalent circle diameter is less than 30 μm, the effect of delaying solidification nucleation at the top of the dimple cannot be obtained, so the lower limit is set to 30 μm. On the other hand, if the diameter corresponding to the circle exceeds 200 μm, the stress / strain relaxation effect by dimples cannot be obtained, so the upper limit is set to 200 μm.
(E) Pore
A pore having a depth of 5 μm or more and a diameter corresponding to a circle of 5 to 200 μm is formed at the top of the depression having the above shape.
[0040]
If the depth is less than 5 μm, the air gap is not sufficiently formed in the pores, and the effect of delaying solidification nucleation cannot be obtained, so the lower limit is set to 5 μm.
Also, if the equivalent circle diameter is less than 5 μm, solidification nuclei are generated near the top other than the pores, and the effect of promoting the penetration of molten steel into the dimple bottom cannot be obtained, so the lower limit is set to 5 μm. On the other hand, if the diameter corresponding to the circle exceeds 200 μm, the height of the top of the dimple is apparently lowered, and a stress / strain relaxation effect cannot be obtained, so the upper limit is set to 200 μm.

[0043]
Here, if the diameter corresponding to the circle of the depression on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum is 0.5 to 3 mm, the solidification nucleation starting point is along the top of the molten steel portion that is in contact with the top of the depression, that is, , With a diameter equivalent to a circle, it is formed in an annular shape of 0.5 to 3 mm.
It is preferable that the solidification nucleus generation starting points generated at the molten steel portion in contact with the fine protrusions, pores, or fine irregularities on the surface of the depression are generated at intervals of 250 μm or less.
[0044]
That is, it is preferable to form fine protrusions, pores, or fine irregularities with an upper limit of a diameter corresponding to a circle of 200 μm on the surface of the depression at intervals of 250 μm or less to promote the generation of the solidification nucleus generation start point.
In the thin-walled slab of the present invention, the molten steel abuts on the “top” and “bottom surface” of the recess on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum and solidifies to form a “net-like continuous recess” on the surface. In addition, a “micro-dent” and / or a “micro-projection” may be formed in each region defined by the “network-like continuous recess”.
[0045]
The above-mentioned “minute dents” and / or “minute projections” correspond to the case where “pores” or “fine irregularities” are formed at the top of the dents on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum of the present invention. And formed on the surface of the thin cast slab.
When the diameter corresponding to the circle of the depression on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum of the present invention is 0.5 to 3 mm, each region defined by the above “net-like continuous depression” has a diameter corresponding to the circle of the depression. Correspondingly, the area corresponding to a circle is 0.5 to 3 mm.
[0046]
In addition, in each of the regions defined by the mesh-like continuous recesses, “micro-dents” and / or “ A minute projection "is formed. The “minute dents” and / or “minute protrusions” are preferably present at intervals of 250 μm or less.
Most preferably, the thin-walled slab of the present invention starts from a solidification nucleation starting point where the molten steel is generated along a net-like continuous recess formed in a molten steel portion that is in contact with the top of the recess on the peripheral surface of the cooling drum. Then, solidification is started while maintaining the shape of the net-like continuous depression, and then the origin of solidification nucleation generated at the molten steel portion in contact with the minute projections, pores or minute irregularities on the surface of the depression is started. As a solidified product.
