Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A movable line infeed arrangement, especially cableand conductor infeed arrangement for transport and change wagons or carriages which are movable within limited paths of travel in the halls of steel works, and which wagons are especially suitable for the handling of the casting vessels of continuous casting installations, wherein the cable or conductors are secured to a metallic band anchored at the wagon.
  • This metallic band is guided overhead to a deflecting roller arranged at the end of the path of travel of the carriage or wagon and from such location is guided about a loose tensioning roll and then leads to a stationary connection location which is located approximately in the direction of the deflecting roller.
  • Such type carriages or wagons are employed, for instance, at the casting platform of continuous casting plants or installations for the transport of casting ladies and tundishes between a change or heating station and the continuous casting mold.
  • Another object of this invention relates to a new and improved construction of mobile line infeed arrange ment, especially a cableand conductor infeed arrange ment for traveling transportand change carriages wherein the transport area about the continuous casting mold is limited only to a minimum degree.
  • Yet a further significant object of the present invention aims at the provision ofa new and improved construction of cable and conductor infeed arrangement which is capable of completely protecting the cable or conductors from contact with meltand slag spray.
  • the line in other words the cables or conductors are secured to a metallic band anchored at the carriage.
  • This metallic band extends overhead to a deflecting roller arranged at one end of the path of travel and from such location extends about a loose tensioning roller and from there to a stationary connection location which is disposed approximately in the direction of the deflecting roller.
  • the metallic band can be prepared together with the cables and conductors in the factory in the form of a mountable unit which can be completely exchanged.
  • the tensioning roller is mounted beneath the deflecting roller upon which a weighted console or bracket which is accommodated in a vertical guide.
  • a weighted console or bracket which is accommodated in a vertical guide.
  • elastic shock absorbers or buffers pos sessing internal thread can be advantageously arranged upon the band member which is preferably formed of steel, and upon which buffers there can be fixedly threaded clamping brackets for fixedly clamping the cables and conductors or the like.
  • FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a line infeed arrangement, here shown for instance as a cable infeed arrangement for a tundish carriage which can travel along a casting platform;
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view of the arrangement depicted in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view through the metallic band and the cables as same are employed in the arrangement of FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • a carriage or wagon 2 which may be a tundish or ladle carriage, can travel upon a casting platform 1 of a continuous casting installation.
  • a casting vessel such as a tundish 3 can be transported between a heating station 4 and a casting position above a continuous casting mold 5.
  • a cantilever or overhang arm member 6 at which there is hingedly connected above the pouring outlet 7' of a ladle 7 a metallic band 8 through the agency ofa suitable connection member 9.
  • suitable lines such as current infeed cables and measuringand control conductors 10 which are connected at a terminal box 11 provided at the overhang arm member 6.
  • the metallic or metal band 8 is guided overhead to a deflecting roller or roll 12 mounted at the end of the path of travel of the tundish carriage or wagon 2 upon the casting platform 1. Beneath the deflecting roller 12 there is located a vertical guide 13 in which there can be displaceably received a roller 15 mounted upon a console or bracket 14.
  • the metallic band 8 travels in a downward direction from the location of the deflecting roller 12, about the movable roller 15 and again upwards to a connection location 16.
  • a terminal box 17 For connecting the cables and conductors 10 there is also provided a terminal box 17.
  • the console 14 is weighted by weights [8.
  • a support equipped with a roller 19 is provided for the metal band 8 between the terminal positions of the tundish carriage 2. This support 20 is detachably secured to the casting platform 2 at the region ofa platform carrier or support 21.
  • the metallic band member 8 together with the cables and conductors 10 extends overhead to the deflecting roller 12.
  • the casting platform 1 is freed for use by the operating personnel and for the fork lift transport.
  • the metallic band 8 is entrained and stored in the guide 13 while lowering the loose movable roller 15. Thereafter, the entire mold region is also free for carrying out work with the crane.
  • Elastic buffers or shock absorbers 22 having internal threading 22' are arranged upon the metallic band member 8 and upon which there are secured the clamping brackets 23 for fixedly clamping the cables and conductors 10 by means of screws 24 or equivalent fastening devices.
  • a movable line infeed arrangement for a transportand change carriage which can travel over defined paths of travel for use in the halls of steel works, said carriage being employed in conjunction with the casting vessels of a continuous casting installation, comprising a metallic band upon which there can be secured the lines, means anchoring said metallic band at the carriage, a deflecting roller arranged at one end of the path of travel, a loose tensioning roller, said metallic band substantially freely extending overhead to the deflecting roller and being devoidv of any overhead rail support extending along the path of travel, from that location being trained about said loose tensioning roller and then extending to a stationary connection location which is disposed approximately in the direction of the deflecting roller.
