Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a continuous casting device for a unidirectionally solidified ingot by forming one end and the other end of a casting mold of a good heat conductor, forming the boundary part thereof into a heat insulating construction and forming the same into such construction in which one end of the mold projects to a molten metal bath and that the other end contacts with a cooling body. CONSTITUTION:Alumina refractories 11 are disposed near the intermediate of the graphite mold 6 attached to the wall on the bottom side of a melting furnace 2 to form the hollow heat insulating structural body. A pure copper bar is positioned in the hollow hole part. After water is passed to a cooling structural body 5, molten pure copper 1 is filled in the furnace 2 and gaseous N2 is ejected through an introducing port 4 to the position 10 just before the position where the copper 1 starts solidifying. A casting rod 3 drawn out of the mold 6 and the hollow hole of the refractories 11 is continuously drawn by means of pinch rolls 7. The continuous casting of the ingot having unidirectionally solidified structure without generating breakout and without having foreign matter and pinholes is thus made possible.

That is, one end of the mold is heated by molten metal, and the other end is in contact with a cooling structure, and one end and the other end of the mold are at least a good thermal conductor, and the boundary part is a continuous structure with an insulating structure. It is a casting device.

One end of the mold of the present invention is heated by a molten metal bath. In particular, by protruding into the molten metal bath, the mold can be further heated by the heat of the molten metal. This makes it possible to maintain a solidified surface on the inlet side of the molten metal without using a separate heating means or overheating. At the same time, it enables unidirectional solidification and allows a cast structure with very large crystal grains to be obtained.

さらに鋳型の他端は、冷却構造体に接した構造である。Furthermore, the other end of the mold is in contact with the cooling structure.

 鋳型の一方を加熱し他端を冷却することにより一方向
凝固を好ましく行い得るものである。
One-way solidification can be preferably performed by heating one end of the mold and cooling the other end.

また同時に鋳型出口部で溶融金属は、全く存在しない。At the same time, no molten metal is present at the mold outlet.

This enables continuous casting without breakouts.

また更に、鋳型の一端及び他端は、少なくとも熱良導体

This enables more efficient unidirectional solidification. This is because the temperature gradient becomes steep.

Examples of refractories with good thermal conductivity include silicon nitride, silicon carbide, and graphite. For the heat insulating structure, a heat insulating refractory material such as Al2O3°MgO, CaO, etc. is arranged, or a cavity is further provided in the structure to allow gas or the like to exist. The gas may be air or the like, and the less it is a good conductor of heat, the better. Further, it is preferable that the heat insulating structure is placed as close to the molten metal as possible so that the solidification interface is closer to the molten metal. This is to facilitate unidirectional solidification. Furthermore, it is more preferable to provide a heat insulating structure on the outside of the mold in the same manner as above.

Further, the structure is such that inert gas and/or neutral gas is blown into the mold wall surface from the molten metal bath side of the mold cooling structure.

This structure prevents segregation of the solidified metal and maintains a uniform temperature of the molten metal.
The gas serves at least to stir and mix the solution at the entrance of the molten metal to the mold. It is preferable that the structure allows charging from at least the inlet side of the mold rather than the part of the mold that is in contact with the cooling structure.
