Definitions

  • the invention relates to plate molds especially for high-melting metals which are continuously cast. Molds used for this purpose are described by E. Herrmann in Handbuch des Stranggiessens (Handbook of Continuous Casting), Aluminum-Verlag, Dusseldorf, Germany, 1958, pp. 640-641, and consist of a mold wall, commonly made of copper, a cooling system and a support structure.
  • the mold wall is connected to the support structure by means of bolts which are directly screwed into the copper or other metal plate.
  • the wall facing the liquid metal to be cast expands to a greater extent than the cold parts of the support structure. This expansion is limited by the bolts.
  • the round bars are of a material which has higher strength characteristics than the metal from which the mold wall is made. For instance, they are made of steel.
  • these round bars are disposed rotatably in the mold wall.
  • they also may be welded to the wall at their upper and lower ends. Both embodiments attain a secure seat of the bolts and preclude warping of the mold wall.
  • the use of these tapped bars has the effect that, upon expansion of the plate, the bars twist and the forces generated do not act on the screwed connection.
  • FIG. 1 is a curved mold, shown as a side elevation in section
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view, partly in section, of the mold shown in FIG. 1.
  • mold wall 1 has a plurality of bore holes 2, in parallel to the wall facing the cooling liquid.
  • Round bars 3 are inserted rotatably and have a diameter corresponding to the bore holes 2.
  • the bore holes are closed by covers or caps 8 which are soldered watertight to mold wall 1 (left side of FIG. 1).
  • the round bars 3 are welded to mold wall 1 at their upper and lower ends (right side of FIG. 1).
  • the round bars 3 have internal threads 4 into which the bolts 5 are screwed, and these bolts 5 connect the mold wall 1 with the support structure 6.
  • Water or other coolant is introduced into the mold in the direction shown by the arrows.
  • the coolant enters through opening 9, flows through the openings 10 and 11, is conducted through the channels 7 within mold wall 1, and leaves through the opening 12.
  • the invention is applicable to straight and curved molds.
  • a plate mold for continuous casting of high-melting metals having a mold wall, cooling means and a support structure, said wall and structure being connected by bolts, the improvement which comprises a plurality of tapped round bars inserted in said wall, the taps being threaded to accommodate said bolts, and the connection being made by way of said bars.
  • a plate mold for continuous casting of high-melting metals comprising a copper mold wall; a support structure; a plurality of tapped round steel bars disposed within said mold wall; a bolt assigned to each said bar having a thread corresponding to the tap and connecting said mold wall to said support structure; and cooling means disposed within said mold.
