Referring to FIG. 5 (A), this continuous casting apparatus 5
The operation of No. 0 will be briefly described. Molten metal 53 supplied from the central portion of the tundish 61 falls into a molten metal pool formed on the inner peripheral side of the side wall 51, where it is kept warm by the coil 66 and melted. It is stirred as it is. The molten metal of the heat retaining / stirring portion 59 gradually descends below the drawing portion 57 by the pulling action, and is gradually cooled toward the inner peripheral side of the water-cooled mold 73 and further toward the vicinity of the water spray 74 from the outer peripheral side, and gradually. The solidified phase is formed, and finally the casting is completed as a rod-shaped solid whose entire cross section is solidified. In addition, instead of the molten metal supply unit, a melted material supply unit for supplying powdery or granular solids is provided, and a continuous melting and casting apparatus is also used that also melts the melted material charged in the heat retention / stirring unit. There is. FIG. 6 is a heat retention / stirring unit 81 of the continuous casting apparatus according to the prior art.
It is a schematic diagram of a vertical section showing an example. Although detailed parts are omitted in this figure, each member is formed into a tubular shape as a whole, and a cover made of an insulating material having a tapered portion in order from above to prevent the molten metal 13 from scattering toward the outer peripheral side. 82

The molten metal 13 in the side wall 11 is generated by the coil 12 and the electromagnetic confining force by the alternating magnetic field of the magnetic flux passing through the slit 54 between the adjacent segments 52 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the central portion rises and only slightly contacts the inner peripheral surface of the side wall 11, and the magnetic flux density becomes small in the portion which passes through the upper and lower central portions of the coil 12 and is lowered, thereby heating the coil 12. The action is reduced and the solidified phase 13a is formed by solidifying from the outer peripheral side. The magnetic flux φ generated by the coil 12 is formed in a ring shape at right angles to the axis of the coil 12, and the molten metal 13 and the solidification phase 13 inside the side wall 11 are formed.
When it hits a, it passes through the surface side and does not enter the inside due to the skin effect, and it is formed large on the outer peripheral side of the side wall 11 and extends far. The situation of the generation of such magnetic flux is the same in a high frequency induction melting furnace using a crucible of a hot wall or a cold wall.

However, since the magnetic flux generated by the current flowing through the coil forms a loop reaching not only the inner peripheral side of the coil, that is, the molten metal side wall, but also the outer peripheral side of the coil. A metal, such as steel, which is placed in the range of the position where the magnetic flux reaches and which is easily heated by induction, is subjected to the heating action by the magnetic field. Since this magnetic flux is generated radially when viewed from above in the axial direction, it tends to have a large magnetic flux density on the inner side in the radial direction and a smaller magnetic flux density on the outer peripheral side of the side wall. Since the metal arranged in the above-mentioned is subjected to almost the same heating action as the molten metal, it may be melted depending on the kind of the metal member. Therefore, conventionally, there has been no choice but to dispose a metal such as copper having a small electric resistance value or a material such as an insulating resin or ceramics as a structural member in the vicinity of the side wall. Further, the magnetic flux generated also on the outer peripheral side of the side wall wastefully consumes the current flowing through the coil, and there is a drawback that the amount of molten metal that can be melted or kept warm is small for the amount of applied power. INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks in a continuous casting apparatus or induction melting furnace that uses high frequency induction heating, enables steel materials that are easily induction heated but have high strength to be used in the vicinity of the coil, and increase melting efficiency with respect to the amount of applied electric power. An object of the present invention is to provide a continuous casting device equipped with a magnetic flux blocking device that can be used.

The above-mentioned problems were solved by arranging them. Specifically, a laminated body of magnetic steel sheets such as silicon steel having a large electric resistance value and a magnetic material such as ferrite whose main component is Fe 2 O 3 are U-shaped in axial cross section, or an upright cylindrical shape or a polygonal shape. The recess or the inner surface of the cylindrical magnetic blocking member is arranged toward the outer circumference of the coil, and the upper and lower end surfaces of this magnetic blocking member are made of copper or copper alloy, and the inner circumference is the outer circumference of the side wall. It is sandwiched between the upper and lower discs or polygonal plates that have an inner diameter that is approximately the same as the inner peripheral dimension, and the outer peripheral dimensions are approximately the same as the outer peripheral dimensions of the upper and lower discs or polygonal plates. And the axial cross-section is open to the outer peripheral side, the upper and lower flange portions of the steel frame arranged at a predetermined distance on the outer peripheral side of the magnetic shielding member, and the upper and lower discs or Magnetic flux blocking device with a polygonal plate fixed by multiple bolts and nuts Therefore, the foregoing problems are eliminated.
Further, the above problem is also solved by a configuration in which the shape of the magnetic blocking member is changed to a tubular shape, or a configuration in which the magnetic blocking members are separately arranged on the outer peripheral side of the coil at a predetermined equal circumferential interval.

[Function] Electromagnetic steel sheets such as silicon steel sheets and ferrites arranged on the upper and lower sides and / or the outer peripheral side of the coil of the induction heating type continuous casting apparatus or the induction melting furnace are short-circuited in the vicinity of the magnetic flux on the outer peripheral side of the coil. However, since the magnetic flux is blocked, even if an iron-based structural material is arranged on the outer peripheral side near the magnetic flux blocking device, it can be used without generating heat due to eddy current. Furthermore, since the electrical steel sheets and ferrites described above have a large electric resistance value, eddy current loss is small even when placed in a high frequency alternating magnetic field, and the magnetic path is shorted compared to the prior art, so a coil per unit applied current is reduced. The number of magnetic fluxes generated by is increased and the power efficiency consumed due to melting is increased compared to the conventional case.

When the magnetic flux interruption device 10 is provided as shown in FIG. 1, the passage (magnetic path) of the magnetic flux φ generated by the coil 12 is the same as the conventional one on the inner peripheral side of the coil 12, but is on the outer peripheral side of the coil 12. It does not pass through the magnetic shield members 1 arranged close to each other, and leaks upward, downward, and far away on the outer peripheral side. As a result, unlike the conventional frame 86 shown in FIG. 6, it is difficult to perform induction heating and the eddy current loss is small, but it is not necessary to use copper or the like having low strength, and the steel frame 4 is used as in the present invention. It became possible to do it. Similarly, the cover 82 shown in FIG. 6 in which an insulating material such as ceramic, which is poor in workability and high in manufacturing cost, is used in the conventional technique,
In the present invention, it is possible to adopt the steel cover 8 which has good workability and can be manufactured at low cost. Besides this,
The Joule loss that has conventionally occurred in the cable 67 that supplies the current to the coil 66 shown in FIG. 5 is conventionally reduced to a negligible level because the magnetic flux does not reach the cable (not shown) in the present invention. Further, as another effect of disposing the magnetic blocking member 1, the magnetic resistance in the magnetic field due to the coil is reduced and the number of magnetic fluxes generated by the current flowing through the coil is increased. The results of tests in this regard are shown below. As the heat retention / stirring section having the configuration of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 as Example 1, the heat retention / stirring section having the configuration shown in FIG. The inductance was obtained by passing a current. The split mold used in the test is a quadrangle as shown in FIG. 5B, and its dimension is 149 m on each side of the inner circumference.
m, each side of the outer circumference is 197 mm, the coil is also quadrangular, and the dimension is 213 mm on each side of the inner circumference, and the upper and lower dimensions are 80 m.
There are 4 turns in m.
