In the actual production process, the cooling effect of the bearing seat is poor. The method of water entering on one side and water exiting on the other side may cause differences in the cooling effect on both sides. At the same time, the continuous casting roller may also be affected by the water flow state inside the roller body, water pressure fluctuations, etc. The heat of the roller body cannot be discharged in time, resulting in poor cooling effect of the continuous casting roller, causing the roller to deform or get stuck, reducing the service life of the continuous casting roller, and affecting the stability of production.

[0020] Preferably, an end cover water channel 9 is provided in the end cover, and the two ends of the end cover water channel are connected to the two ends of the bearing seat water channel through through holes. The water channel is equivalent to a cavity, and the through hole connects the cavities of the end cover water channel and the bearing seat water channel. The through hole has two parts, which are respectively located on the end cover and the bearing seat. When the end cover and the bearing seat are tightly matched, the two parts are connected to form a through hole, and the cooling water is divided into the two water channels to form cooling. The connection of the through hole can be sealed by a sealing ring to ensure the circulation of water.

[0021] Preferably, the rotary joint is an existing product, specifically a two-way flow rotary joint, that is, a rotary joint can realize water inlet and water return, which includes an outer tube that seals with the end cover and a rotatable inner tube that matches the inner diameter of the roller.
