Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kaltstrangkopf-Abdichtsystem in einer Kokille einer Stranggiessanlage zum Giessen grossformatiger Vorprofile, mit einer den Spalt zwischen dem Kaltstrangkopf und der Kokille abdichtenden Flachdichtung, sowie einer die Flachdichtung am Kaltstrangkopf festhaltenden Verpackungsplatte, welche annähernd die Querschnittsform des Kokillenprofils aufweist und die Flachdichtung vollumfänglich überdeckt.The invention relates to a cold extrusion head sealing system in a mold of a continuous casting for casting large-size Vorprofile, with a gap between the cold rod head and the mold sealing flat gasket, and a flat gasket at the cold strand head festhaltenden packaging plate, which has approximately the cross-sectional shape of the mold profile and the flat gasket vollumfänglich covered.

Stranggiessanlagen dieser Art werden beispielsweise zum Erzeugen grosser sogenannter Beam-Blank-Formate mit einem Doppel-T-Profil von über 800 mm Länge, über 400 mm Flanschbreite und etwa 120 mm Stegdicke eingesetzt. Der Kaltstrangkopf dient bekanntlich mitunter dazu, die Kokille vor und während des Angiessvorganges unten dicht abzuschliessen.Continuous casting plants of this type are used, for example, for producing large so-called beam-blank formats with a double-T profile of more than 800 mm in length, over 400 mm flange width and about 120 mm Web thickness used. The cold strand head is known sometimes serves to close the mold before and during the Angiessvorganges down tightly.

Beim Giessen wird die Schmelze durch ein Giessrohr in den Innenraum der Kokille eingefüllt und sie erstarrt dort bis zu einem Grad, bei dem man sie mit dem Kaltstrangkopf als Warmstrang abziehen kann. Zur Kompensation der beim Erstarrungsprozess entstehenden Schrumpfung des Stranges in der Kokille verläuft letztere eine Konizität bildend von oben nach unter leicht schräg. Da grosse Beam-Blank-Formate langsamer gegossen werden als kleinere Formate, benötigt man für sie eine relativ grosse Konizität in der Kokille. Der Kokilleneintritt ist deshalb bei solchen Formaten um ca. 6-12 mm grösser als der Austritt.When pouring the melt is poured through a pouring tube into the interior of the mold and it solidifies there to a degree where they can be deducted with the cold rod head as a hot strand. To compensate for the shrinkage of the strand in the mold during the solidification process, the latter forms a conical shape from above to below at a slight angle. Since large beam blank formats are cast more slowly than smaller formats, they require a relatively large conicity in the mold. The Kokilleneintritt is therefore in such formats by about 6-12 mm larger than the exit.

Der Kaltstrangkopf mit der zugehörigen Verpackung wird vor Giessbeginn oberhalb der Kokille montiert und anschliessend in die Kokille eingezogen, bis er darin die Angiessstellung erreicht hat. Da die Verpackung bei den bekannten Systemen starr ist, entsteht dort durch die Konizität der Kokille ein Spalt an der inneren Schulter des Profils. Bei grossen Formaten hat er eine unzulässige Spaltbreite. Gerade in der Angiessstellung muss aber die Kaltstrangverpackung einwandfrei dichten, um zu verhindern, dass beim Angiessen Schmelze aus dem Innenraum der Kokille herausfliesst. Die bisher bekannten Systeme eignen sich daher nicht zum Giessen von besonders grossformatigen Profilen.The cold extrusion head with the associated packaging is mounted before Giessbeginn above the mold and then fed into the mold until it has reached the Angiessstellung. Since the packaging is rigid in the known systems, there is formed by the taper of the mold a gap on the inner shoulder of the profile. For large formats, it has an impermissible gap width. Especially in the Angiessstellung but the cold strand packaging must seal properly, to prevent melt flows out of the interior of the mold during casting. The previously known systems are therefore not suitable for casting of particularly large-sized profiles.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die oben genannten Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine Kaltstrangverpackung zu schaffen, die beim Angiessen auch bei besonders grossen Formaten die volle Dichtigkeit der Kaltstrangverpackung gewährleistet.The invention has for its object to avoid the disadvantages mentioned above and to provide a cold strand packaging that ensures the full tightness of the cold strand packaging when casting even in very large formats.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass die die Flachdichtung festhaltende Verpackungsplatte um einen von der Konizität der Kokille abhängigen Betrag zur Kokillenmitte hin verstellbar ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the packing plate holding the flat gasket is adjustable by an amount dependent on the conicity of the mold to the center of the mold.

Dadurch ist es möglich, beim Einziehen des Kaltstrangkopfes den schrägen Verlauf der Kokille mit der sich zusammenziehenden Verpackungsplatte soweit auszugleichen, dass der Dichtspalt zwischen Verpackungsplatte und Kokille allseits gleichmässig bleibt. Dadurch kann ihn die Flachdichtung auch beim Giessen besonders grosser Formate voll abdichten.This makes it possible to compensate when pulling the cold strand head the oblique course of the mold with the contracting packaging plate so far that the sealing gap between the packaging plate and mold remains well on all sides. As a result, the flat gasket can also completely seal it when casting particularly large formats.

Zwecks einer einfachen Konstruktion und einer sicheren Arbeitsweise sieht die Erfindung ferner vor, dass die Verpackungsplatte zweiteilig ausgebildet ist, wobei beide Plattenhälften zur Kokillenmitte hin verschiebbar sind und durch einen Abstand zueinander getrennt sind, dessen Breite von der Konizität der Kokille abhängig ist. Beim Einziehen des Kaltstrangkopfes in die Kokille werden die Plattenhälften im Millimeterbereich innerhalb des Abstandes eingezogen. Bei entsprechender Bemessung des Abstandes kann man auf diese Weise den schrägen Verlauf der Kokille vollständig kompensieren.For the purpose of a simple construction and a safe operation, the invention further provides that the packaging plate is formed in two parts, wherein both plate halves are displaceable towards Kokillenmitte and separated by a distance to each other, whose width depends on the taper of the mold. When drawing the cold strand head into the mold, the plate halves are drawn in the millimeter range within the distance. With appropriate dimensioning of the distance can be fully compensate in this way the oblique course of the mold.

Zur Vereinfachung der Fertigung ist es ebenfalls von Vorteil, wenn der Abstand mittig gebildet ist. Dadurch ist es möglich, beiden Plattenhälften identisch auszubilden.To simplify the production, it is also advantageous if the distance is formed centrally. This makes it possible to form two plate halves identical.

Im Sinne einer stabilen Halterung der verschiebbaren Plattenhälften weist der Kaltstrangkopf erfindungsgemäss eine beide Plattenhälften überdeckende einteilige Verpackungsplatte auf, die an den Kaltstrangkopf geklemmt ist. Die Plattenhälften sind somit flächenmässig durch die einteilige Verpackungsplatte sicher gehalten, ohne ihre Verschiebbarkeit zu beeinträchtigen.In the sense of a stable mounting of the displaceable plate halves, the cold strand head according to the invention has a one-piece packaging plate which covers both plate halves and which is clamped to the cold strand head. The plate halves are thus kept safe in terms of area by the one-piece packaging plate, without affecting their displaceability.

Die einteilige Verpackungsplatte ist zweckmässigerweise an den Kaltstrangkopf mit auf diesem befestigten Zugankern geklemmt. Die Zuganker dienen auch in bekannter Weise zur Aufnahme der zwischen Kaltstrang und Warmstrang wirkenden Zugkräfte.The one-piece packaging plate is conveniently clamped to the cold rod head with tie rods attached thereto. The tie rods also serve in a known manner to absorb the tensile forces acting between the cold strand and the hot strand.

Zur freien Beweglichkeit der verschiebbaren Plattenhälften im Bereich der Zuganker sieht die Erfindung vor, dass die Plattenhälften mit als Langlöcher ausgebildeten Durchgangslöchern für die Zuganker versehen sind.For freedom of movement of the displaceable plate halves in the region of the tie rods, the invention provides that the plate halves are provided with holes formed as elongated holes for the tie rods.

Zwecks einer einwandfreien Aufnahme der wirkenden Kräfte beim Einziehen der Flachdichtung ist die einteilige Verpackungsplatte erfindungsgemäss mit einer in Längsrichtung verlaufenden Verstärkungsrippe versehen, womit ihre Steifigkeit insbesondere im Stegbereich verbessert wird.For the purpose of a perfect absorption of the acting forces when pulling in the flat gasket, the one-piece packaging plate according to the invention is provided with a longitudinally extending reinforcing rib, whereby its rigidity is improved, in particular in the web area.

Der in den Figuren 1 bis 8 gezeigte Kaltstrangkopf 1 ist mit einer erfindungsgemässen Kaltstrangverpackung 2 ausgestattet. Er ist in der Startstellung vor Beginn des Giessvorganges dargestellt, in welcher er den Innenraum einer Kokille 3 zum Giessen eines grossformatigen Beam-Blank Doppel-T-Profils von ca. 800 mm Breite, 400 mm Flanschbreite und 120 mm Stegdicke unten abschliesst. Oberhalb des Kaltstrangkopfes 1 befindet sich mindestens ein in die Kokille 3 ragendes Giessrohr 4, durch welches beim Giessen Stahlschmelze in den Innenraum der Kokille 3 eingefüllt wird. Unterhalb des Kaltstrangkopfes 1 ist dieser an einer Ausziehvorrichtung 5 angekoppelt, mittels derer der Strang aus der Kokille 3 gezogen wird.The in the FIGS. 1 to 8 cold strand head 1 shown is equipped with an inventive cold strands packaging 2. He is shown in the starting position before the casting process, in which he concludes the interior of a mold 3 for casting a large-sized beam blank double T-profile of about 800 mm wide, 400 mm flange width and 120 mm web thickness bottom. Above the cold strand head 1 there is at least one casting tube 4 projecting into the mold 3, through which molten steel is poured into the interior of the mold 3 during casting. Below the cold strand head 1, this is coupled to an extraction device 5, by means of which the strand is pulled out of the mold 3.

Wie insbesondere aus den Figuren 1 und 2 ersichtlich, besteht die Kaltstrangverpackung 2 aus einer Flachdichtung 6 und zwei Verpackungsplatten 7 und 8, wobei die Verpackungsplatte 7 in zwei symmetrisch zueinander in einer Ebene liegenden Plattenhälften 7a, 7b geteilt ist, zwischen denen ein mittig angeordneter, durchgehender Abstand 9 von ca. 10 bis 20 mm vorhanden ist. Die Verpackungsplatte 8 dagegen ist einteilig und rechteckig ausgebildet und überdeckt die Plattenhälften 7a, 7b im Stegbereich. Die Verpackungsplatten 7 und 8 sind aus Stahlblech mit ca. 8-15 mm Blechdicke hergestellt.As in particular from the Figures 1 and 2 can be seen, the cold strand packaging 2 consists of a flat gasket 6 and two packaging plates 7 and 8, wherein the packaging plate 7 is divided into two symmetrically to each other in a plane plate halves 7a, 7b, between which a centrally arranged, continuous distance 9 of about 10 to 20 mm is present. The packaging plate 8, however, is formed in one piece and rectangular and covers the plate halves 7a, 7b in the web area. The packaging plates 7 and 8 are made of sheet steel with about 8-15 mm sheet thickness.

Wie aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich, hat die Flachdichtung 6 die gleiche Aussenkontur wie die Innenkontur der Kokille, jedoch mit einem umfänglich kleinen Übermass von ca. 15 bis 25 mm. Sie kann aus Filz mit einer Dicke von ca. 6-12 mm, aber auch ohne weiteres aus jedem anderen Material mit vergleichbaren Eigenschaften, insbesondere hinsichtlich der mechanischen Festigkeit, der Elastizität und der Hitzebeständigkeit hergestellt werden.How out Fig. 3 can be seen, the flat gasket 6 has the same outer contour as the inner contour of the mold, but with a circumferentially small excess of about 15 to 25 mm. It can be made of felt of about 6-12 mm thickness, but also of any other material with comparable properties, in particular mechanical strength, elasticity and heat resistance.

Die Kaltstrangverpackung 2 wird am Kaltstrangkopf 1 ausserhalb der Kokille 3 montiert. Dabei wird die Flachdichtung 6 zwischen dem Kaltstrangkopf 1 und den Plattenhälften 7a, 7b überstehend eingeklemmt. Beim Einziehen des Kaltstrangkopfes 1 in die Kokille biegt sich dann die überstehende Flachdichtung um den Aussenrand der Plattenhälften 7a, 7b gegen die Innenwände der Kokille und dichtet den ca. 4-8 mm breiten Spalt zwischen Verpackungsplatten und Kokille rundum ab, damit aus dieser keine Stahlschmelze während des Angiessens herausfliesst.The cold strand package 2 is mounted on the cold strand head 1 outside of the mold 3. In this case, the flat gasket 6 is clamped overhanging between the cold strand head 1 and the plate halves 7a, 7b. When pulling the cold strand head 1 into the mold then the protruding flat gasket bends around the outer edge of the plate halves 7a, 7b against the inner walls of the mold and seals the 4-8 mm wide gap between the packaging plates and mold around, so that no molten steel flows out during the gushing process.

Die einteilige Verpackungsplatte 8 ist ihrerseits gegen die beiden Plattenhälften 7a, 7b angedrückt und hat zusammen mit ihnen die Aufgabe, die beim Einziehen der Flachdichtung 6 wirkenden Kräfte im gesamten Profilbereich einschliesslich des Stegbereiches aufzunehmen.The one-piece packaging plate 8 is in turn pressed against the two plate halves 7a, 7b and has together with them the task to absorb the forces acting on the gasket 6 during insertion of the entire profile area including the web area.

Zur Befestigung der Kaltstrangverpackung 2 am Kaltstrangkopf 1 dienen Zuganker 10, 11 in Gestalt von Bolzen 12 welche mit dem unteren Teil 13 in den Kaltstrangkopf 1 eingesetzt und mit einem Querbolzen verriegelt wird, sowie einem oberen Gewindeteil 14, auf dem eine Mutter 15 aufgeschraubt ist. Die Plattenhälften 7a, 7b haben Langlöcher 16 bzw. 17 als Durchgangslöcher für die Zuganker 10 und 11. Die Muttern 15 sind gegen Andrückbüchsen 18 festgeschraubt, die ihrerseits gegen die einteilige Verpackungsplatte 8 angedrückt sind. Beim Montieren ist auf die Verschiebbarkeit der Verpackungsplatten zu achten, d.h. man darf die Muttern 15 nicht zu fest anziehen, ausser man legt einen Distanzring zwischen die Platten. Die Zuganker 10 und 11 übernehmen auch die Zugkräfte, die zwischen Warmstrang und Kaltstrang beim Ausziehen des Stranges wirksam sind.Tie rod 10, 11 in the form of bolts 12 which is used with the lower part 13 in the cold rod head 1 and locked with a cross bolt, and an upper threaded part 14, on which a nut 15 is screwed, are used to fasten the cold strand package 2 to the cold strand head 1. The plate halves 7a, 7b have slots 16 and 17 as through holes for the tie rods 10 and 11. The nuts 15 are screwed against Andrückbüchsen 18, which in turn are pressed against the one-piece packaging plate 8. When mounting, pay attention to the displaceability of the packaging plates, i. Do not overtighten the nuts 15 unless you place a spacer between the plates. The tie rods 10 and 11 also take over the tensile forces that are effective between hot strand and cold strand when pulling out the strand.

Um die beiden Plattenhälften 7a, 7b insbesondere im Stegbereich sicher zu halten, ist die einteilige Verpackungsplatte 8 mit einer in Längsrichtung verlaufenden Verstärkungsrippe 23 versehen, die der Verpackungsplatte 8 eine höhere Steifigkeit im mittleren Bereich verleiht. Die Verstärkungsrippe 23 erstreckt sich zwischen den beiden Zugankern 10 und 11.In order to securely hold the two plate halves 7a, 7b, in particular in the web area, the one-piece packaging plate 8 is provided with a longitudinally extending reinforcing rib 23, that of the packaging plate 8 gives a higher rigidity in the middle range. The reinforcing rib 23 extends between the two tie rods 10 and 11.

Für die Steifigkeit der Platte 8 können noch nicht näher dargestellte Verstärkungen vorgesehen sein.For the rigidity of the plate 8 reinforcements not shown in detail can be provided.

Fig. 7 zeigt die Kokille 3 im Schnitt entlang der Linie VII - VII gemäss Fig. 6 und schematisch die Kaltstrangverpackung 2 in der Position 2.1 vor dem Einfahren, in der Position 2.2 unmittelbar nach dem Einfahren in die Kokille 3 und zusätzlich in der Position 2.3 beim Erreichen des unteren Endes der Kokille 3, wie dies vergrössert auch in Fig. 8 veranschaulicht ist. Fig. 7 shows the mold 3 in section along the line VII - VII according to Fig. 6 and schematically the cold strand package 2 in the position 2.1 before retraction, in the position 2.2 immediately after entering the mold 3 and additionally in the position 2.3 when reaching the lower end of the mold 3, as this also increases in Fig. 8 is illustrated.

Die Flachdichtung 6 steht rundum zu der oberhalb dieser befindlichen Verpackungsplatte 7 seitlich vor. Hierdurch wird sie von der Kokille 3 gleichmässig als Lasche 6' abgewinkelt und befindet sich damit zwischen der sich verstellenden Verpackungsplatte 7 und der Kokille und bildet rundum eine sichere Abdichtung. Bei der Abwärtsverschiebung des Kaltstrangkopfes 1 in der Kokille 3 wird die verstellbare Verpackungsplatte 7 durch die rundum an der Kokille anliegende Flachdichtung stets zur Kokillenmitte hin verschoben. Es wird damit gleichsam bewirkt, dass der Dichtspalt zwischen ihr und der Verpackungsplatte 7 gleichmässig bleibt. In der Position 2.2 unmittelbar nach dem Einfahren der Kaltstrangverpackung 2 befindet sich die Verpackungsplatte 7 im Verhältnis zu der kürzeren Verpackungsplatte 8 nach aussen geschoben, indessen in der Position 2.3 ist diese Verpackungsplatte 7 vergleichsweise mehr nach innen verschoben.The flat gasket 6 protrudes laterally all the way to the packaging plate 7 located above it. As a result, it is angled evenly from the mold 3 as a tab 6 'and is thus between the adjusting packaging plate 7 and the mold and forms a secure seal all around. In the downward displacement of the cold strand head 1 in the mold 3, the adjustable packaging plate 7 is always moved by the voltage applied to the mold flat gasket to Kokillenmitte. It is thus at least causes the sealing gap between it and the packaging plate 7 remains uniform. In the position 2.2 immediately after the retraction of the cold strand package 2, the packaging plate 7 is pushed outward in relation to the shorter packaging plate 8, however, in the position 2.3, this packaging plate 7 is displaced comparatively more inwardly.

Dadurch ist sichergestellt, dass in der dargestellten Angiessstellung 2.3 die Flachdichtung 6 mit der rundum gebildeten Lasche 6' den Dichtspalt rundum und insbesondere auch an der inneren Schulter des Profils rundum abdichtet.This ensures that in the illustrated Angiessstellung 2.3, the flat gasket 6 with the all-around tab 6 ', the sealing gap around and in particular also on the inner shoulder of the profile completely seals.

Hinsichtlich der Einziehbarkeit der Verpackungsplatte 7 ist es auch im Rahmen der Erfindung möglich, andere wirkungsmässig vergleichbare Elemente, wie etwa nachgiebige Plattenbereiche oder dergleichen vorzusehen. Es ist auch im Rahmen der Erfindung möglich, den Abstand 9 je nach Profilgeometrie anders als gleichmässig auszubilden bzw. anders als mittig in der Verpackungsplatte zu platzieren.With regard to the retractability of the packaging plate 7, it is also possible within the scope of the invention to provide other elements which are comparable in terms of effect, such as yielding plate regions or the like. It is also possible within the scope of the invention to form the distance 9 differently than uniformly, depending on the profile geometry, or to place it otherwise than centrally in the packaging plate.
