Embodiment Construction

[0033] Continuous molten metal casting machines are described in Hazelett US Patents 3,123,874, 3,937,270 and 4,901,785, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. These casting machines are twin belt casting machines which confine the solidified metal product on all sides. However, some casting machines use only one casting belt that rotates around one support. The description herein is made in relation to a twin-belt continuous metal casting machine, while it should be understood that the invention is also applicable to single-belt casting machines.

[0034] Additionally, the present application describes molten metal casting angles having a substantially horizontal, or approximately so, angle. However, the invention is applicable to all casting machines using any casting angle.

[0035] Finally, as used herein, the terms "cylindrical" and "semi-cylindrical" are to be construed broadly so as to encompass structures having a cylindrical surface with a s...

Abstract

An apparatus for guiding a moving, flexible, tensed casting belt on a continuous metal casting machine along a substantially oval path. The continuous metal casting machine having an entrance-end, an exit-end and a moving-mold casting region extending from the entrance-end to the exit-end. The apparatus includes a non-rotating fluid pillow structure at the entrance end of the machine. The fluid pillow structure supports the mold-width of the casting belt. The apparatus includes two narrow shoulder-pulleys at the entrance end of the casting machine which are adjacent to opposite sides of the entrance-end fluid-pillow structure. Each pulley supports a portion of the belt outside of the moving-mold casting region. Each pulley guides the belt around the fluid-pillow structure as the belt revolves along its substantially oval path. The apparatus also facilitates the sealing, controlled-venting and recovery of pressurized fluids used to levitate the belt about a fluid-pillow structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a continuous metal casting machine having substantially rectilinear or planar moving cavities or chambers provided by an endless casting belt or belts, which must be accessed from the inlet end of the continuous metal casting machine. The casting belt is guided, guided or directed into and along the mold chamber or casting area and from there to the exit. In particular, the present invention relates to guiding, directing or directing a circulating metal casting belt on a continuous metal casting machine equipped with a non-rotating, suspended, semi-cylindrical belt support structure at the inlet of the continuous metal casting machine. Background technique [0002] A twin-belt continuous caster for casting molten metal uses upper and lower circulating casting belts, which are thinner and wider. The cast strip is formed from a suitable, thermally conductive, flexible metallic material known in the art. Both t...
