Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for transporting at least one slab, preferably at least one slab emerging from a continuous casting plant.
  • the continuous casting products are usually produced in such a way that they still have a very high heat content when they leave the respective plant.
  • the average temperature of a slab when leaving a continuous casting plant is still about 1000 ° C.
  • the slabs - or other continuous casting products, such as billets, rods, etc. - are then usually spent in warehouses, where they are stored until further processing in a rolling mill for the production of a finish-rolled product.
  • the slabs usually cool down strongly and can even reach ambient temperature.
  • the slabs In order to be processed in the rolling process, the slabs must then be reheated to the working temperature of the rolling process, which is typically 1200 ° C. Accordingly, a high energy input is necessary to bring the cooled slabs from the slab storage back to hot rolling process temperature. This results in high costs and the environmental impact of a corresponding process suffers.
  • insulation blankets which are used to transport the slabs from the continuous caster to a rolling line.
  • An appropriate facility for Keeping warm emerging from a continuous casting slabs is for example from the WO 2008/025325 A1 known.
  • the slabs are transported here in the corresponding closed containers via roller tables and then removed from the containers before the hot rolling mill.
  • the said isolation devices of the prior art are limited in that they are each bound to a specific means of transport, for example to the presence of roller tracks or railway wagons or transport trailers with insulated floors.
  • the device for transporting at least one slab comprises a floor for receiving the at least one slab and a hood which can be placed on the floor.
  • the floor has at least one receptacle for receiving and removing at least the total weight of the hood and the at least one slab received on the floor.
  • the device for transporting is very flexible with respect to the means of transport used.
  • the total weight is carried by the rollers of the roller conveyor, for example, on the usual in steel mills lifting equipment, such as lifting cranes, be lifted and implemented together with the content.
  • lifting equipment such as lifting cranes
  • the device is also designed to be self-supporting, so that the floor can also support itself.
  • the dead weight of the floor can also be recorded via the receptacles so that the apparatus can be transported on the most diverse means of transport without being structurally damaged.
  • the device is preferably dimensioned such that at least two slabs can be stacked one above the other on the at least one receptacle.
  • the efficiency of the device can be further increased because inter alia, the amount of heat introduced into the device is higher and thus the slabs can be kept warm longer. In this way it can also be achieved that a slower decrease in the heat in the stacked slabs can be achieved, as in the transport of a single slab.
  • the hood has at least one removal means for removing the weight of at least one further device stacked on the hood, wherein the at least one removal means removes the weight to the bottom of the lower device.
  • the proposed device for transporting slabs in such a way that they can be stacked and the necessary base area can accordingly be reduced in a slab bearing or a higher number of slabs can be temporarily stored on a given base area.
  • this is also achieved in that at least two slabs stacked one above the other can be accommodated in a single device for transporting.
  • the device is compatible with commonly used in steel mills transport and lifting equipment, preferably heavy duty low loaders, railway cars, roller tables and cranes and other lifting devices, particularly preferably the hood and / or the bottom of the device has corresponding stop devices for crane and lifting devices.
  • transport and lifting equipment preferably heavy duty low loaders, railway cars, roller tables and cranes and other lifting devices, particularly preferably the hood and / or the bottom of the device has corresponding stop devices for crane and lifting devices.
  • the existing transport and lifting devices can be achieved in a steel mill, for example, with the existing low loaders, railway cars and crane devices, which can then all be used in conjunction with existing roller tables for handling the respective devices.
  • the floor is particularly preferably designed so that it can be used on roller tables.
  • it is sufficiently flat on its underside to be guided accordingly over the roller tables.
  • the hood is preferably connectable via locking means to the ground so that the floor, hood and the slab received on the floor or the slabs received can be lifted by means of a stop means arranged on the hood. Also by this leaves significantly simplify the handling of the device, since a corresponding lifting device must be struck only on the top of the hood.
  • the hood and / or the floor guide means for guiding the hood in its Aufsetzposition or locking position on the ground.
  • a simple lifting and re-putting the hood on the ground can be achieved to allow loading of the soil with slabs and then to achieve a quick and easy closing.
  • Particularly suitable for this purpose are refractory bricks, preferably based on silicate, which are applied to the corresponding receptacles in such a way that the slabs can be laid on the corresponding refractory bricks and the loads registered by the slabs are removed directly on the receptacles of the floor.
  • the refractory bricks are preferably positioned over anchors on the receptacles.
  • the number of refractory bricks is limited to the number required for the safe removal of the slab weight used.
  • a further insulation of the soil, in particular between the shots or between on the recordings launched refractory bricks, can be achieved with advantage over a Blähton sectionung, which is taken in the ground.
  • the hood preferably has a support structure on which wall elements are advantageously mounted, which are lined with insulating materials.

About the stops 24, 34 but the device 1 can also be raised in lifting devices, such as cranes, and then in a simple manner to a heavy-load low loader or the example in FIG. 4 shown railroad car 5 are implemented. Furthermore, the stackability of the individual devices is such that two or more of the insulating boxes shown can be stacked one above the other.
  • the content of the device 1 can preferably be identified via corresponding identification means.
  • identification means for example, offer RFID transponder or other means of identification, which can be detected automatically.
  • the insulation box described can be operated with optimally short open times, since it can be opened and closed at the appropriate intended processing locations. Due to the corresponding design of the floor, the insulating box can be placed directly on the continuous casting plant so that the finished cast slab can be directly absorbed, and on the other hand, the Isolierbox due to the structural design of the Soil can be lifted directly to the beginning of the hot rolling mill, whereby the actual open times can be kept short.
  • the insulating box is self-sufficient in that it requires no additional power supply or power supply, but acts as a passive element. It can be used accordingly without blocking transport or lifting capacity as a buffer for decoupling the workflow between continuous casting and hot rolling mill.
  • it is also stackable, taking advantage of the available storage space almost as well as uninsulated boxes. The stackability makes it a slightly larger volume immediately.
  • the insulation box makes a significant contribution to reducing the environmental impact in this context.
