- FIGS. 1 and 2 there is shown a continuous casting machine with a curved mold, a curved strand guiding and an individual straightener.
- An open ended water cooled mold 21 having the mold shaft curved as a section of an annulus having a middle radius R (called the casting radius) is connected inflexibly with a reciprocation lever 22, the pivot point 0 of which coincides with the center of the casting radius R.
- the mold 21 is oscillated by driving the reciprocation lever 22 by a cam disc 28.
- the molten metal for example, liquid steel, is poured from a ladle 24 over a tundish 25 and into the mold 21.
- the molten steel is solidified along the cooled mold walls to form a strand or slab S with a liquid core enclosed within the formed peripheral skin and the strand is withdrawn from the mold 21 by means which will be described in subsequent portions of the specification.
- a curved strand guiding means 26 is positioned to receive the slab issuing from the mold 21.
- grooved rollers 27, 27a, 27b are arranged on both sides of the strand S.
- These grooved rollers are preferably arranged in the structure of the strand guiding means 26 (not shown) so that the working faces of the rollers are positioned along two concentric circular curves 0, d, of which the distance t is equal to the longest distance 11 between the two longitudinal sides of the mold shaft or chamber of the mold 21 and the center of which coincide with the center of the casting radius R.
- These circular curves are, therefore, identical with the inner side and the outer side of the curved strand S, and the circular curve with the casting radius R is identical with the axis of the strand.
- the grooved rollers 27 in the first part of the strand guiding 26 are rotatably mounted to serve as idler rollers.
- the grooved rollers in the rest of the guide the neighboring pair or pairs of grooved rollers.
- the ⁇ Y grooved rollers 27b are driven in similar manner by a motor 31 over drive shaft 32 and a gear 33.
- Change of the circumferential speed of the individual grooved rollers, required by the specific forming process, can be achieved by variation of the speed of the drive motor, the number of gear teeth of the enmeshed gears and diameter of the rollers. For plants having only a small number of passes, single drives for each grooved roller can be provided.
- Each supporting roller 34 has the same shape as the preceding grooved roller 27 to support the longitudinal sides of the strand and to prevent bulging of the skin. With smaller cross sections, no supporting rollers are necessary.
- feed pipes 35 for the cooling water are arranged. These feed pipes are connected to spray nozzles 36 which are arranged between the grooved rollers 27a, 27b, respectively, the grooved rollers 27 and the supporting rollers 34 so that their spraying fans are directed onto the strand S. Some of these spraying nozzles 36 can be arranged in a way that their spraying fans are directed Onto the strand surface and the surface of the grooved rollers.
- the grooved rollers 27b comprise hollow spaces 37 for the cooling of the grooved rollers and also for the cooling of the strand surface.
- These hollow spaces 37 comprise an inlet 38 and an outlet 39 for the cooling water.
- FIG. 4 shows a sectional view of the grooved rollers 27b which can be adjusted to the desired pass depth on the til inner side of the curved strand by means of an adjusting device, comprising spindles 40 and their drive.
- This adjustment device can also be replaced by hydraulic means.
- the smaller sides of the mold chamber of the mold 21 consist of two sides 41 and 41a which are arranged at an angle to each other.
- the length of these sides is equal to the length of one side of a billet formed of a strand so that by forming billets of one strand, two sides, each of the outer billets, are cast.
- the lateral boundaries 42 of the grooves in this case are only for supporting and guiding of the strand.
- a straightener 45 (FIGS. 1 and 2) consisting of pairs of straightening rollers 46 follows the strand guiding means 26.
- Each pair of straightening rollers 46 comprises a driven roller 46a, and an adjustable roller 46b. In the example shown, the adjustment is achieved by hydraulic means.
- the rollers 46:: are driven by a motor 47 at an adjustable speed.
- a drive shaft 48 and a chaindrive 49 connect the motor 47c to the rollers 46a.
- the straightening rollers 46a, 46b are formedas grooved rollers. Between the straightening rollers 46a, 46b, spray nozzles 48 are arranged for the cooling of the strand S and the straightening rollers 46a, 46b. The distance of the bottoms of the grooves between the two straightening rollers of one pair of straightening rollers 46 is also equal to the distance i.
- a device 50 for longitudinal cutting is arranged in the straightened part of the strand S following the straightener 45.
- the cutting device comprises a cutting torch 51 for each flashing or rib connecting the billet forms of the strand. It is also possible to use a device with cutting rollers.
- a transversal cutting device 52 known to the art for cutting the strand and/ or the billets to the desired length follows the longitudinal cutting device 50.
- billets of the cross section shown in FIG. 5 shall be formed out of a slab.
- the slab to be formed into billets shows three billet forms 55 which are connected by flashes 56.
- the dummy bar (described in detail in a subsequent portion of the specification) which corresponds approximately in its cross section to the form shown in FIG. 5 and is guided in the bottom of the grooved rollers, is introduced by means of the straightener 45 into the mold.
- the head of the dummy bar having a cross section equal to the mold chamber is fixed on top of the dummy bar.
- the liquid steel poured into the curved mold 1 is cooled along the periphery to form a skin defining a curved slab in which the shorter sides are already shaped in billet form.
- This slab is withdrawn by the dummy bar which is driven by the straightener 45.
- the cross section of the slab with a liquid core is formed in the strand guide means 26 by the grooved rollers 27 following the mold 21 during solidification of the strand and accompanying an increase in the peripheral dimension of the strand.
- This circumferential extension can also be enlarged to the form according to FIG. 5 by the straightener 45.
- This circumferential extension is effected by a grooved roller guiding and cooling the slab, whereby the additional cooling of the slab is achieved by the water coming out of the spray nozzles.
- the ferrostatic pressure is resisted by the grooved rollers and in the upper part of the strand guiding means 26 also by the supporting rollers 34.
- the form of the grooves and the variation in groove depth is shown in percent for the formation of the slab into three 'billets.
- the slab is formed by fifteen sequential forming steps, each of which slightly stretches the peripheral skin of the slab until formed in the billet configuration.
- the cross section of the slab in this example has a dimension of 350 x 114 mm. and the cross section of the billet is 86 x 86 mm.
- the thickness of the flashes or ribs after the fifteenth pass is 10 mm.
- the increase in the pass depth for the above mentioned example is shown as a function of the pass number in form of a curve.
- the pass depth is shown and of the ordinate said pass number which reaches a maximum with fifteen passes.
- This curve is preferably chosen so that the contraction from groove to groove increases with progressing solidification. This increase of the contractions can also proceed in linear direction.
- the deformation of the slab, originating in the grooves, is preferably allocated mostly in the longitudinal direction of the strand.
- the cross section dimension of the mold chamber of the mold 21 destinates the outer dimension of the billets to be formed, the alteration of the outer cross section dimension of the slab for the assumed example is not wanted. Due to the slow increase of the contractions in the strand cross section, the deformation has mainly an effect on the feeding rate of the liquid steel until the skin contacts to separate the liquid core.
- the solidified external zone of the strand shows such a thickness that the main circumferential increase can be achieved by the rollers in the straightener 45, whereby the strand is straightened and further cooled at the same time by water coming out of the spray nozzles 48.
- the cooling is decreased in this area. This may be achieved by applying insulations in the cooling hollow space 37 of the grooved rollers in the area of the contractions and by reduction of the spray by spraying nozzles 36 and 48. A further possibility of decreasing the cooling effect is to blow away the water or to exhaust the water in the said areas.
- the strand may only be cooled by the grooved rollers within the strand guiding means 26. This cooling may also take place only over a certain part of the strand.
- the positively driven grooved rollers 27a and 27b also provide for the withdrawal of the strand.
- the slab When the slab has left the straightener, it shows the form according to FIG. 5, i.e. the form of the billets are connected by flashes 56.
- the cutting torches 51 the billets will be cut according to the cutting lines 57, so that billets are achieved, which can be formed to the desired product without further working.
- transverse cutting device 52 the billets are cut to the desired length. For the further processing, it may be advantageous to cut longitudinally in a later step of the process.
- At least the last pass is arranged behind the liquid core, thus, eliminating the shrinking porosity during its formation in the end area of the liquid core.
- the strand guiding and forming means 26 shows instead of the grooved rollers 27 and 27a of FIG. 1, supporting rollers of known construction between which the strand is cooled by means of spraying nozzles 36.
- the first driven group of rollers are the grooved rollers 27b
- the second group are the grooved rollers of the straightener 45
- the third group the grooved rollers 27c.
- a strand guiding is shown which is elongated to the straight part of the strand, thus, enabling the application of the grooved rollers with the greater roller pressure in the straight part, which is advantageous in respect of the costs of the construction.
- FIG. 9 shows another example, in which the circumference of the strand being cast in a straight mold with a rectangular mold chamber is enlarged in a straight strand guiding means 66.
- the mold 65 is reciprocated by a reciprocating machine 69 of known design.
- the design and the function of the strand guiding means 66 are similar to the strand guiding means 26.
- the grooved rollers 27, 27a, 2715 are arranged in the strand guiding means 66, so that the connection of the bottoms of the grooved rolls in longitudinal strand direction on both sides of the strand forms two parallel lines a, b, the distance t2 of which is equal to the largest distance of the longitudinal walls of the mold 65.
- the strand guiding means 66 is followed by a withdrawal device 67 of known design.
- FIG. 10 shows that the withdrawing rolls are grooved and serve for withdrawing of the strand and at the same time for the circumferential increase of the strand.
- the distance between the bottoms of the grooves of a pair of withdrawal rolls is equal to the distance t2.
- the adjustment of the withdrawing rolls arranged on one side of the strand S is achieved by hydraulic means 66 of known design.
- FIG. 11 shows an example of grooved rolls with fifteen passes, through which a slab of 468 x 114 mm. is formed into four billets. The alteration of the pass depth is given in percents. The thickness of the flashes after the fifteenth pass is 10 mm.
- FIG. 12 shows another example of a continuous casting machine, in which the circumference of the strand, cast in a straight, preliminary shaped mold 7 0 is increased in a strand guide 71 following this mold 70, in which strand guide the strand is simultaneously guided, cooled, curved and straightened in a separate straightener.
- the two longitudinal sides of the mold 70 are shaped as shown in FIG. 13, thus, casting a straight, profiled strand.
- the following grooves are shaped according to this profiled strand.
- the grooved rollers 27, 27a, 27b are arranged in the strand guide, so that the connection of the bottoms of the grooves in longitudinal direction of the strand on the inner and outer curve is formed by two nearly parallel curves k1, k2 shaped by different sections b1, b2, b3 of different radii r1, r2, r3.
- the distance t3 of the curves k1, k2 is equal to the longest distance :4 between the two longitudinal sides of the mold chamber of the mold 70.
- the strand in the strand guiding means 51 is bent slowly into the horizontal line according to the said curves.
- the bending may be more than so that the strand can be transported to the floor on a table roller without further means.
- a separate straightener 45 for straightening and further forming of the strand is arranged, as shown in FIG. 1 following the straightener 45, a transverse cutting device 52 is arranged, which separates the formed strand into sections of the desired length.
- the longitudinal cutting and completion to billets is effected in a separate process outside of the continuous casting machine.
- FIG. 14 there is shown a continuous casting machine in which the circumference of a strand cast in a straight mold 75 is increased in a curved strand guiding means 76 following this mold, for guiding, additional cooling bending and straightening the strand.
- the strand guide means 76 consists of two main parts. The first part extends from the mold 75 to point P. In this part, the radii of the curves decrease to the point P so that the strand is exposed to an increasing bending. The second part reaches from point P to the horizontal line. In this part, the radii of the curves increase until passing over to the horizontal line so that the strand is exposed to an increasing stretching.
- the withdrawing of the strand S from the mold 75 is achieved by the positively driven grooved rollers 27a.
- the strand S is to billets 7 cut by a saw 77 into billets. The billets can then be cut by following shears.
- FIG. shows a further continuous casting machine in which the circumference of a strand cast in a curved mold 80 is increased in a curved strand guide following the mold in which strand guide the strand is guided, cooled and straightened.
- the strand cast in a curve with a casting radius R1 is guided by supporting rollers in a part of the strand guide, extending from the mold to a point P1, and cooled by water coming out of the spraying nozzles 36.
- the radii of each of the segments increase in relation to the radius R1, so that the strand S is exposed to an advancing stretching until it is straightened.
- the withdrawing of the strand is achieved by positively driven grooved rollers 27b.
- the contractions of the grooves are arranged so that the billet forms are situated edge-toedge and that they are connected by the flashes 56.
- the edges 35 are formed by grooved rollers for increasing the circumference of a slab, so that over a portion M of each neighboring side 86, 87, joint billets 88, 89 and are achieved.
- the portion M represents the size of the flash (FIG. 5) with the same depth of groove.
- transposing the contractions in the groove of grooved rollers placed opposite each other By transposing the contractions in the groove of grooved rollers placed opposite each other, the apexes of the contractions are transposed, resulting in high temperature in the flashes and lower rolling pressures.
- a further advantage of transposing the contractions and overlapping of neighboring sides 88, 87 is that the efliciency of the cross section of the slab and, thus, the output of the machine is improved.
- FIGS. 16 and 17 The difference between the FIGS. 16 and 17 is that in FIG. 17 the sides 88, 87 of neighboring billet forms 88, 89 and 89, 90 respectively, are arranged in cutting distance n, whereby in FIG. 16 they are aligned.
- the billets are divided and the sides 86 and 87 in their part M are formed into billets.
- a dummy bar head On starting the casting, the mold is closed in its lower part by means of a dummy bar head, connected to a dummy bar. This dummy bar is placed onto the mold by means of the withdrawal rollers. As soon as the steel fed to the mold is solidified at the dummy bar head, the strand bing formed is withdrawn from the dummy bar by means of the withdrawal rollers.
- the dummy bar according to the invention is shown in FIGS. 18 to 20 for a plant with curved strand guiding means.
- a dummy bar 92 comprises a dummy bar head 93 for a mold without a pre-shaped mold chamber.
- the dummy bar 92 is flexible and, for example, may be made of rubber.
- the bar has a cross section according to the final form of the strand cross section as shown in FIG. 5, so that it can be passed through the groove of the strand guiding means.
- the dummy bar 92 which is transported by the straightener and/ or the positively driven grooved rolls, is guided by these bottoms of the grooves or its apexes 94.
- These apexes 94 are slightly larger than the bottoms of the grooves, so that in the bottom of the groove a Wide and maximum possible surface is achieved.
- the centers of the shaped single cross sections are provided with a steel core 95.
- Each steel core 95 is connected to a coupling piece 96.
- This coupling piece 96 and the following part of the steel core 95 are separated from the dummy bar 92 by asbestos for heat insulation.
- the dummy bar head 93 consists of several super-positioned plates 97, an insulation layer 96 for screening the heat against the dummy bar 92 and bolts 99. These bolts 99 are connected by means of connecting bolts 100 to the coupling piece 96.
- the number of plates is chosen in a way that they cannot be completely melted by the liquid steel, but that the remaining plates have a temperature high enough for being formed by the following grooved rollers.
- the shape of the cross section of the dummy bar may be the same as the cross section of the mold chamber.
- the grooved rollers have to be arranged movably by bydraulic means, so that-they can be put aside for introducing the dummy bar. In this case, the grooved rollers will be put into position when the beginning of the strand has passed.
- the method of continuous production of profiled strands which comprises the steps of continuously casting a strand having a cross section of different shape than desired for the finished strand and a solidified periphery enclosing a molten core, withdrawing said strand from said mold, cooling the strand to further solidify it, and hot forming said strand during the latter cooling to change the shape, and to enlarge the circumference, of the cross section of the strand.
