Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of crystallizers, in particular to a speed-increasing mechanism for a continuous casting machine crystallizer. Background Art
[0002] Continuous steel casting is the process of continuously pouring high-temperature molten steel into billets with defined cross-sectional shapes and dimensions. This process requires continuous casting equipment, which can be categorized into various types. Based on their structural appearance, continuous casting machines can be divided into vertical casting machines, vertical bending casting machines, straight-line arc casting machines, arc casting machines, multi-radius elliptical casting machines, and horizontal casting machines. During operation, a continuous casting machine cools and forms the billet through a mold, then pulls the formed billet out.

A cooling channel is disposed at the bottom of the crystallization box, and a cooling ring is disposed inside the cooling channel. A guide frame is disposed below the discharge port of the cooling channel, and a plurality of guide rollers are disposed above the guide frame. A cooling mechanism is disposed above the guide rollers. The cooling mechanism comprises a fixed frame, a lifting plate, a spray pipe, and an adjusting screw.
