Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a stirring device intended to improve the quality of a continuously cast metal.
  • One of these devices described in French patent of the Applicant No. 2 231 454, comprises an inductor arranged inside a roll for guiding the slab below the ingot mold, and creating around it a sliding field so as to create a lateral movement of the still liquid part located behind the cooled crust.
  • the subject of the invention is a method and a device intended to improve the quality of a continuously cast metal which have, for the same effects as described above, a clearly higher yield and an increased stirring movement.
  • the method is characterized in that an inductor rotating a magnetic field £ fixed relative to the inductor is rotated about an axis parallel at least to one of the surfaces of the cast product.
  • the relative displacement will be a rotational displacement around an axis perpendicular to the pouring axis or an axis parallel thereto.
  • the devices corresponding to this process will therefore include means for producing a constant magnetic field consisting of permanent magnets or electromagnets, the magnetizing power therefore being supplied in this second case by a direct current as in a rotor of a synchronous machine. .
  • the devices for rotating these devices are provided so as to create the relative movement of the magnets and thus to cause eddy currents in the liquid metal and to give rise to forces for the circulation of the liquid metal.
  • FIG. 1 In Figure 1 is shown in 1 a billet being cooled below the mold, the still liquid metal being shown in 2.
  • a stirring device 3 is placed around the billet. It comprises an inductor 4 comprising a cylindrical yoke 5 in which are fixed two inductor poles 6 made of magnetically hard material so as to create a uniform field crossing the cylindrical space partially occupied by the billet. To facilitate the realization, these poles can be executed by stacking relatively thin elements 7 arranged according to generatrices and glued together.
  • a particularly well suited material for making such a stack is magnetic rubber, which can be arranged in a uniform layer, either pre-magnetized or magnetizable after installation, for example by placing an alternator rotor inside the available cylindrical space. in which a suitable shock current will be sent.
  • the cylinder head 5 is arranged in two mounting elements 8 and 9 and the assembly of the inductor 4 is placed in a casing 10 of steel which has a lower disc part 11 and a cylindrical lateral part 12, so that the inductor 4 can turn to inside the housing 10.
  • rollers 13a and T3b are provided rotating around axes linked to the mounting elements 8 and 9 and rolling on tracks 14 and 15 integral with the casing 10.
  • the frame 8 has a toothed wheel 16 which allows the inductor to be driven by the electric motor 17 and the gear 18.
  • a cover 19 of ordinary steel makes it possible to serve as a magnetic screen for the leakage flows as well as the wall 11.
  • the assembly of the inductor 4 and the casing 10 is capped by a water jacket 20, of stainless steel for example, comprising a vertical double-walled tube 20a and a double-walled disc 20b, so as to protect the inductor against radiation from the billet and metal splashes from the ingot mold.
  • a water jacket 20 of stainless steel for example comprising a vertical double-walled tube 20a and a double-walled disc 20b, so as to protect the inductor against radiation from the billet and metal splashes from the ingot mold.
  • This shirt will be crossed by a stream of water.
  • poles made of hard magnetic materials make the latter out of magnetically mild steel surrounded by an inductor winding traversed by a direct current. Electric contacts with wipers must be provided in this case between the windings which are placed in a rotating system and the fixed part where the electric current is brought.
  • a device with permanent magnets as described above lends itself remarkably well to its installation in a mold.
  • the rotating assembly will preferably be placed in a toric enclosure surrounding the ingot mold and if necessary filled with water. Only the drive shaft of the drive gear will pass through tightly.
  • the proposed system Compared to solutions with a fixed electromagnetic inductor supplied with alternating current, the proposed system has, on the one hand, the advantage of greater simplicity and, on the other hand, makes it possible to produce fields of higher intensity and not require reactive power other than that requested by the quine motor will provide only the power necessary for stirring, mechanical losses and eddy current losses in the solidified part of the billet and in the fixed parts (screens and water jacket).
  • inductor poles 4 diametrically opposite a helical shape so that the electric currents generated in the billet by the rotation of the inductors are inclined relative to the casting axis and generate forces which have a component parallel to the casting axis, either in the upward direction, or in the downward direction, so as to create a helical mixing, which, as explained in the patent application in France No. 78/15304 of the Applicant, gives a improvement in metal quality superior to that given by simple rotary stirring.
  • FIG. 2 which schematically represents a slab 21 during continuous casting in the part situated below the ingot mold, as well as the pairs of guide rollers 22 of this slab, certain pairs of rollers have been shown such as 221, 222, 223, 224 which represent the particularity of being provided at each of their ends with inductors with cylindrical permanent magnets 23 and 24 on either side of the slab and magnetized transversely in a homogeneous manner so that the lines of force of the magnetic field are perpendicular to a diametral plane.
  • the magnetic axes of the cylindrical permanent magnets 23 and 24 are oriented relative to each other as shown in Figure 3 and rotate at the same speed, different from that of the guide rollers and their arrangement inside of the guide roller will be described later.
  • FIG. 3 which schematically gives the orientation of the magnetic axes of the magnets 24 located on one side of the slab and designated by 241a, 241b, 242a, 242b, 243a, 243b, 244a, 244b
  • the straight arrows passing by the center of the rollers indicate at a given instant the direction of the magnetization
  • the curved arrows located in the circles representing the magnets give the direction of rotation printed to these magnets.
  • Figure 4 gives the detail of a stirring roller such as 22 in the vicinity of one of its ends which contains a cylindrical magnet 24.
  • the hollow guide roller 22 rotates in bearings 25 located at its two ends. It is made in three parts, a central part 22a and two end caps 22b. The central part is located so as to receive at each of its ends the cylindrical magnets 24 located inside a cylindrical sheath 26 of non-magnetic steel. The magnets are driven in rotation by a shaft 27 and rotating in roller bearings 29 and 30 housed in the parts 22a and 22b.
  • a cooling air circulation is provided between the axis and the plug 22b, and countersinks 32 and 33 allow the incoming air in the annular cylindrical space 34 located between the sheath 26 and the guide roller 22 and to come out to go to the other end of it by a central channel 28. Arrows 35 to 38 materialize the circulation of cooling air.
  • the magnet can consist of a stack of ferrite washers in the sheath 26. It can also be formed from a ferrite powder mixed with thermosetting resin then injected and hardened.
