- the known object has between a storage vessel and a continuous casting mold in each case an adjustable connection to the pouring axis, wherein the storage vessel is provided with a perforated stone and an inserted nozzle stone and wherein the adjustable connection to the pouring axis lies sealingly against the end face of the nozzle stone.
- the horizontal continuous casting mold In the case of horizontal continuous casting, the horizontal continuous casting mold must be separated from the distributor vessel in the time between a completed casting and the subsequent batch in order to renew an important component of the horizontal continuous casting mold, the release ring, or to check its condition. Depending on the design and number of cast strands, this operation must be carried out inside or outside the casting line.
- the assembly and preparation of the horizontal continuous casting molds outside the casting line means that the distributor / horizontal continuous casting mold unit can only be brought into the operating position shortly before the start of casting.
- the problem arises here of aligning and fixing the horizontal continuous casting molds exactly to the individual casting lines. This problem has not yet been solved satisfactorily in multi-strand casting plants.
- the disassembly and the subsequent assembly of the horizontal continuous casting molds in the casting line means a considerable loss of time, especially when it is not possible to work on all horizontal continuous casting molds at the same time due to space requirements or a lack of personnel.
- the cast strand is e.g. cyclically moved, followed by a short recoil and a waiting time.
- the waiting time serves the intimate and safe welding of the strand shell.
- the strand shell is formed new during each forward movement and is welded to the previous one.
- the horizontal continuous casting mold must be absolutely fixed, because only then can the recoil arrive safely in the horizontal continuous casting mold.
- the horizontal continuous casting mold has the possibility of uncontrolled movements, it has a negative effect both on the course of the process and on the product produced.
- the horizontal continuous casting mold is aligned and anchored in the casting line.
- the distributor is then moved up to the horizontal continuous casting mold and connected.
- Such a simple adjustment is not possible in multi-strand casting plants, because e.g. Heat distortion and play in the melt supply system prevent precise adjustment.
- a simple attachment of the horizontal continuous casting molds to the distribution vessel is therefore ruled out, since experience has shown that sufficient fixation cannot be achieved.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of achieving a simultaneous alignment of all horizontal continuous casting molds in a horizontal continuous casting device for a plurality of continuous casting.
- the stated object is achieved according to the invention in the aforementioned horizontal continuous casting device in that the distributor vessel and one horizontal continuous casting mold per strand are arranged on a carriage, each with a slide closure, and that the horizontal continuous casting molds can be connected in the operating position of the carriage with stationary trestles aligned with the continuous lines by locking means .
- the distributor and the horizontal continuous casting molds are aligned and assembled on a work stand on the trolley.

- the entire assembly can then be moved to the casting line on the trolley, with the result that the horizontal continuous casting molds are aligned and firmly anchored by the locking means.
- the known adjustment methods take times of over half a day to several hours. In contrast, the adjustment system according to the invention takes significantly less than 15 minutes.
- the horizontal continuous casting molds are each provided with approaches which can be fixed opposite the trestles by means of plug connections. Warped housings with approaches of the horizontal continuous casting molds are pressed into the desired position by these plug connections.
- the approaches of the horizontal continuous casting molds and the trestles are each provided in pairs. This creates symmetrical pairs of forces to ensure safe alignment.
- the adjustment process can also advantageously be automated in that the plug connections are hydraulic operated lifting rams exist. It is also structurally advantageous that the lifting rams are all arranged on a transverse yoke.
- starting heads are arranged in a sealed manner in the horizontal continuous casting molds which are located on the distributor vessel on the carriage.

Um eine Zeitersparnis beim gleichzeitigen Ausrichten sämtlicher Horizontalstranggießkokillen zu erzielen, wird vorgeschlagen, daß das Verteilergefäß (2) und pro Strangader (3 bis 6) eine Horizontalstranggießkokille (7 bis 10) mit jeweils einem Schieberverschluß (13) auf einem Wagen (11) angeordnet sind und daß die Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) in Betriebslage (12) des Wagens (11) mit ortsfesten, zu den Strangadern (3 bis 6) ausgerichteten Böcken (17) durch Arretiermittel (20) verbindbar sind. 
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Horizontalstranggießvorrichtung für mehrere Gußstränge, mit einem Verteilergefäß, jeder Strangader zugeordneter Horizontalstranggießkokille und mit Mitteln zum Ausrichten der Horizontalstranggießkokillen auf die Gießachsen.The invention relates to a horizontal continuous casting device for several cast strands, with a distributor vessel, horizontal continuous casting mold associated with each strand core and with means for aligning the horizontal continuous casting molds with the casting axes.
Eine gattungsgemäße, eingangs bezeichnete Horizontalstranggießvorrichtung ist z.B. aus der DE-OS 34 11 769 bekannt. Der bekannte Gegenstand weist zwischen einem Vorratsgefäß und einer Stranggießkokille jeweils eine zur Gießachse einstellbare Verbindung auf, wobei das Vorratsgefäß mit einem Lochstein und einem eingesetzten Düsen stein versehen ist und wobei die zur Gießachse einstellbare Verbindung an der Stirnseite des Düsensteins dichtend anliegt.A generic, continuous casting device described at the outset is e.g. known from DE-OS 34 11 769. The known object has between a storage vessel and a continuous casting mold in each case an adjustable connection to the pouring axis, wherein the storage vessel is provided with a perforated stone and an inserted nozzle stone and wherein the adjustable connection to the pouring axis lies sealingly against the end face of the nozzle stone.
Beim Horizontalstranggießen muß in der Zeit zwischen einem beendeten Abguß und der darauffolgenden Charge die Horizontalstranggießkokille vom Verteilergefäß getrennt werden, um einen wichtigen Bestandteil der Horizontalstranggießkokille, den Ablösering, zu erneuern bzw. dessen Zustand zu überprüfen. Je nach Bauweise und Anzahl der gußstränge muß dieser Arbeitsgang innerhalb oder Außerhalb der Gießlinie ausgeführt werden. Die Montage und Vorbereitung der Horizontalstranggießkokillen außerhalb der Gießlinie hat jedoch zur Folge, daß die Einheit Verteiler/Horizontalstranggießkokille erst kurz vor Gießbeginn in Betriebsstellung gebracht werden kann. Hierbei tritt das Problem auf, die Horizontalstranggießkokillen exakt zu den einzelnen Gießadern auszurichten und zu fixieren. Bei Mehrstranggießanlagen ist dieses Problem bisher noch nicht zufriedenstellend gelöst worden. Die Demontage und der anschließende Zusamenbau der Horizontalstranggießkokillen in der Gießlinie bedeutet einen erheblichen Zeitverlust, und zwar vor allem dann, wenn nicht an allen Horizontalstranggießkokillen aus Gründen des Platzbedarfs oder des Personalmangels gleichzeitig gearbeitet werden kann.In the case of horizontal continuous casting, the horizontal continuous casting mold must be separated from the distributor vessel in the time between a completed casting and the subsequent batch in order to renew an important component of the horizontal continuous casting mold, the release ring, or to check its condition. Depending on the design and number of cast strands, this operation must be carried out inside or outside the casting line. However, the assembly and preparation of the horizontal continuous casting molds outside the casting line means that the distributor / horizontal continuous casting mold unit can only be brought into the operating position shortly before the start of casting. The problem arises here of aligning and fixing the horizontal continuous casting molds exactly to the individual casting lines. This problem has not yet been solved satisfactorily in multi-strand casting plants. The disassembly and the subsequent assembly of the horizontal continuous casting molds in the casting line means a considerable loss of time, especially when it is not possible to work on all horizontal continuous casting molds at the same time due to space requirements or a lack of personnel.
Für die Qualität des durch Horizontalstranggießen erzeugten Produktes ist jedoch eine exakte Relativbewegung zwischen Horizontalstranggießkokille und Gußstrang erforderlich. Bei im Horizontalstranggießen angewendeten Verfahren wird der Gußstrang z.B. zyklisch bewegt, wobei sich an die Vorwärtsbewegung ein kurzer Rückstoß anschließt sowie eine Wartezeit. Die Wartezeit dient dem innigen und sicheren Verschweißen der Strangschale. Die Strangschale wird während jeder Vorwärtsbewegung new gebildet und wird mit der vorangegangenen verschweißt. Für dieses Verfahren muß die Horizontalstranggießkokille absolut feststehen, denn nur dann kann der Rückstoß sicher in der Horizontalstranggießkokille ankommen. Erfahrungsgemäß wirkt es sich sowohl auf den Ablauf des Verfahrens als auch auf das erzeugte Produkt negativ aus, wenn die Horizontalstranggießkokille die Möglichkeit zu unkontrollierten Bewegungen hat.For the quality of the product produced by horizontal continuous casting, however, an exact relative movement between the horizontal continuous casting mold and the casting strand is required. In processes used in horizontal continuous casting, the cast strand is e.g. cyclically moved, followed by a short recoil and a waiting time. The waiting time serves the intimate and safe welding of the strand shell. The strand shell is formed new during each forward movement and is welded to the previous one. For this process, the horizontal continuous casting mold must be absolutely fixed, because only then can the recoil arrive safely in the horizontal continuous casting mold. Experience has shown that if the horizontal continuous casting mold has the possibility of uncontrolled movements, it has a negative effect both on the course of the process and on the product produced.
Bei Einstranggießanlagen wird die Horizontalstranggießkokille in der Gießlinie ausgerichtet und verankert. Der Verteiler wird darauf an die Horizontalstranggießkokille herangefahren und verbunden. Bei Mehrstranggießanlagen ist eine derartig einfache Justierung nicht möglich, weil z.B. Wärmeverzug und Spiel im Schmelzenzuführsystem ein genaues Justieren verhindern. Ein einfaches Befestigen der Horizontalstranggießkokillen am Verteilergefäß scheidet daher aus, da hier erfahrungsgemäß keine ausreichende Fixierung erreicht werden kann.In the case of single-strand casting plants, the horizontal continuous casting mold is aligned and anchored in the casting line. The distributor is then moved up to the horizontal continuous casting mold and connected. Such a simple adjustment is not possible in multi-strand casting plants, because e.g. Heat distortion and play in the melt supply system prevent precise adjustment. A simple attachment of the horizontal continuous casting molds to the distribution vessel is therefore ruled out, since experience has shown that sufficient fixation cannot be achieved.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einer Horizontalstranggießvorrichtung für mehrere Gußstränge eine gleichzeitige Ausrichtung sämtlicher Horizontalstranggießkokillen zu erzielen.The present invention is therefore based on the object of achieving a simultaneous alignment of all horizontal continuous casting molds in a horizontal continuous casting device for a plurality of continuous casting.
Die gestellte Aufgabe wird bei der eingangs genannten Horizontalstranggießvorrichtung erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das Verteilergefäß und pro Strangader eine Horizontalstranggießkokille mit jeweils einem Schieberverschluß auf einem Wagen angeordnet sind und daß die Horizontalstranggießkokillen in Betriebslage des Wagens mit ortsfesten, zu den Strangadern ausgerichteten Böcken durch Arretiermittel verbindbar sind. Der Verteiler und die Horizontalstranggießkokillen werden auf einem Arbeitsstand an dem Wagen fertiggemacht ausgerichtet und zusammenmontiert. Bei Mehrstranggießvorrichtungen gehört auch das aufwendige Anbringen des Schieberverschlusses dazu. Die gesamte Baueinheit kann sodann auf dem Wagen in die Gießlinie gefahren werden, wobei erreicht wird, daß durch die Arretiermittel die Horizontalstranggießkokillen ausgerichtet und fest verankert werden. Die bekannten Justierverfahren benötigen Zeiten von über einer halben bis zu mehreren Stunden. Demgegenüber benötigt das erfindungsgemäße Justier-System wesentlich unter 15 Minuten.The stated object is achieved according to the invention in the aforementioned horizontal continuous casting device in that the distributor vessel and one horizontal continuous casting mold per strand are arranged on a carriage, each with a slide closure, and that the horizontal continuous casting molds can be connected in the operating position of the carriage with stationary trestles aligned with the continuous lines by locking means . The distributor and the horizontal continuous casting molds are aligned and assembled on a work stand on the trolley. In the case of multi-strand casting devices, the complex application of the slide closure is also included. The entire assembly can then be moved to the casting line on the trolley, with the result that the horizontal continuous casting molds are aligned and firmly anchored by the locking means. The known adjustment methods take times of over half a day to several hours. In contrast, the adjustment system according to the invention takes significantly less than 15 minutes.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Horizontalstranggießkokillen jeweils mit Ansätzen versehen sind, die den Böcken gegenüberliegend mittels Steckverbindungen fixierbar sind. Etwa verzogene Gehäuse mit Ansätzen der Horizontalstranggießkokillen werden durch diese Steckverbindungen in die gewünschte Lage gedrückt.In a further development of the invention it is proposed that the horizontal continuous casting molds are each provided with approaches which can be fixed opposite the trestles by means of plug connections. Warped housings with approaches of the horizontal continuous casting molds are pressed into the desired position by these plug connections.
Für die Justierung der Horizontalstranggießkokillen ist ferner vorteilhaft, daß die Ansätze der Horizontalstranggießkokillen und die Böcke jeweils paarweise vorgesehen sind. Damit werden symmetrische Kräftepaare geschaffen, um ein sicheres Ausrichten zu gewährleisten.For the adjustment of the horizontal continuous casting molds, it is also advantageous that the approaches of the horizontal continuous casting molds and the trestles are each provided in pairs. This creates symmetrical pairs of forces to ensure safe alignment.
Der Justiervorgang kann außerdem vorteilhafterweise dadurch automatisiert werden, indem die Steckverbindungen aus hydraulisch betätigten Hubstempeln bestehen.
Es ist fernerhin konstruktiv vorteilhaft, daß die Hubstempel sämtlich an einem Querjoch angeordnet sind.The adjustment process can also advantageously be automated in that the plug connections are hydraulic operated lifting rams exist.
It is also structurally advantageous that the lifting rams are all arranged on a transverse yoke.
Zusätzlich zu den Justierarbeiten können auch andere manuelle Arbeiten beim Vorbereiten der Horizontalstranggießvorrichtung vereinfact werden. Diesbezüglich wird vorgeschlagen, daß für sämtliche Horizontalstranggießkokillen eine Kühlwasser-Spannplatte vorgesehen ist.In addition to the adjustment work, other manual work can be simplified when preparing the horizontal continuous casting device. In this regard, it is proposed that a cooling water clamping plate is provided for all horizontal continuous casting molds.
Eine weitere Vereinfachung der Vorbereitungen auf einen Abguß wird dadurch erzielt, daß in den Horizontalstranggießkokillen die sich an dem Verteilergefäß auf dem Wagen befinden, Anfahrköpfe abgedichtet angeordnet sind.A further simplification of the preparations for a cast is achieved in that starting heads are arranged in a sealed manner in the horizontal continuous casting molds which are located on the distributor vessel on the carriage.

Gemäß Fig. 1 ist eine Horizontalstranggießvorrichtung für mehrere Gußstränge (1) ausgerüstet. Ein Verteilergefäß (2), jeder Strangader (3,4,5 und 6) zugeordnete Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7,8,9 und 10) sind auf einem Wagen (11) angeordnet. Der Wagen (11) ist von einem nicht näher dargestellten Arbeitsstand in die in den Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellte Betriebslage (12) verfahrbar. In dem Arbeitsstand wurden das Verteilergefäß (2) und die Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) nach Montage vorgeheizt, und außerdem wurde während der Montage jeweils ein Schieberverschluß (13) eingebaut. Auf dem Gießstand sind Gleise (14) vorgesehen, so daß der Wagen (11) die Betriebslage erreichen kann. Unterhalb der Geise (14) ist eine Grube mit einer Notpfanne (15) angeordnet. Für den Notfall weist daher das Verteilergefäß (2) einen rückseitig angeordneten Abstich (16) auf, der auch für das Abstechen der Restschmelze bzw. für abzustechende Schlacke dient.1, a horizontal continuous casting device for several cast strands (1) is equipped. A distributor vessel (2), horizontal continuous casting molds (7, 8, 9 and 10) assigned to each strand (3, 4, 5 and 6) are arranged on a carriage (11). The carriage (11) can be moved from a work station (not shown) into the operating position (12) shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. In the work station, the distribution vessel (2) and the horizontal continuous casting molds (7 to 10) were preheated after assembly, and a slide closure (13) was also installed during assembly. Tracks (14) are provided on the casting stand so that the carriage (11) can reach the operating position. A pit with an emergency pan (15) is arranged below the geise (14). For emergencies, the distribution vessel (2) therefore has a tapping (16) arranged on the rear, which is also used for tapping off the residual melt or for slag to be cut off.
In der vorgesehenen Betriebslage (12) sind in entsprechendem Abstand je nach Länge der Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) Böcke (17) vorgesehen. Die Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) weisen jeweils Ansätze (18 und 19) auf. Diese Ansätze (18 und 19) sind durch Arretiermittel (20) mit den Ansätzen (18 und 19) verbunden. Die Arretiermittel (20) bestehen hier aus Steckverbindungen (21), d.h. aus Hubstempeln (22) der hydraulischen Bauart. Die Böcke (17) sind (Fig. 3) paarweise jeder der Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) an den Seiten zugeordnet, entsprechend den Ansätzen (18 und 19). Sämtliche Arretiermittel (20) bzw. die Steckverbindungen (21) sind an einem Querjoch (23) angebaut. An dem Querjoch (23) (Fig. 4) ist gleichzeitig eine Kühlwasser-Spannplatte (24) vorgesehen, die sämtliche Zu- und Abflüsse (25) für die Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) mit Kühlmittel versorgen. Beim aufsetzen der KühlwasserSpannplatte (24) auf die Zu- bzw. Abflüsse (25) wird nicht nur der Anschluß, sondern gleichzeitig eine dichtende Wirkung hergestellt.In the intended operating position (12), blocks (17) are provided at an appropriate distance depending on the length of the horizontal continuous casting molds (7 to 10). The horizontal continuous casting molds (7 to 10) each have lugs (18 and 19). These lugs (18 and 19) are connected to the lugs (18 and 19) by locking means (20). The locking means (20) here consist of plug connections (21), i.e. from hydraulic jacks (22). The trestles (17) (Fig. 3) are assigned in pairs to each of the horizontal continuous casting molds (7 to 10) on the sides, corresponding to the approaches (18 and 19). All locking means (20) and the plug connections (21) are attached to a transverse yoke (23). At the transverse yoke (23) (Fig. 4) a cooling water clamping plate (24) is provided which supply all inflows and outflows (25) for the horizontal continuous casting molds (7 to 10) with coolant. When the cooling water clamping plate (24) is placed on the inflows and outflows (25), not only the connection is created, but also a sealing effect.
Neben den Arretiermitteln (20) für die Ansätze (18 and 19) der Horizontalstranggießkokillen (7 bis 10) kann selbstverständlich eine selbständige Arretierung des Wagens (11) vorgesehen sein. Deren Wirkung kann sich darauf erstrecken, eine etwa durch Schwerkraft auf den Wagen (11) über nicht exakt horizontal verlaufende Gleise (14) zu kompensieren.In addition to the locking means (20) for the approaches (18 and 19) of the horizontal continuous casting molds (7 to 10), one can of course independent locking of the carriage (11) may be provided. The effect of this can extend to compensate for a track (14) which does not run exactly horizontally, for example by gravity on the carriage (11).
Die Ansätze (18 und 19) sind in den Fig. 1, 3 und 4 als nicht aufliegend d.h. durch einen Luftspalt getrennt, gegenüber den Böcken (17) gezeichnet. Eine exakte Anpassung kann daher durch Zwischenlegen von Einlagen in diesen Luftspalt hergestellt werden, wobei eine entsprechende Paßarbeit erforderlich word.The approaches (18 and 19) are in Figures 1, 3 and 4 as not lying i.e. separated by an air gap, drawn opposite the trestles (17). An exact adjustment can therefore be made by interposing inserts in this air gap, a corresponding fitting work being required.
