AI Technical Summary
The existing continuous casting machine tail billet buffer is prone to damage when the billet vibrates repeatedly and deviates from the center of the anti-collision beam, resulting in the instability of the anti-collision beam structure.
A novel tail-end billet buffer for a continuous casting machine is designed, employing a guide assembly and a shock-absorbing assembly. The guide block and guide rail work together to prevent the anti-collision beam from deflecting and reset it by storing energy through a reset spring. The damper absorbs the impact energy, and the combination of positive and oblique dampers quickly resets the energy-absorbing block to reduce the impact force.
It effectively reduces the vibration and deflection of the anti-collision beam, extends its service life, improves the stability and durability of the buffer, and ensures the smooth transfer of the cast billet.
