Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003503204
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Equipment for continuous, horizontal casting of metal, in particular aluminum. The equipment includes an insulated reservoir or pool ( 2 ), which is designed to contain liquid metal, and a mold ( 3 ), which can be removed from the pool ( 2 ). An insulating plate ( 19 ) is provided with holes ( 25, 26 ) which communicate with the mold. The mold ( 3 ) includes a preferably circular cavity ( 17 ) defined by a wall ( 12, 13 ) of permeable material for the supply of oil and at least one annular slit or nozzle ( 16 ) arranged along the circumference of the cavity for the direct supply of coolant. In addition to the oil, gas can be supplied through the permeable material ( 12, 13 ) and annuli ( 20 ) are arranged between the permeable wall material and the mold housing ( 8 ) to distribute the gas/oil to the wall material. The annuli ( 20 ) is divided into sectors using plugs or similar restrictions ( 21 ) and are supplied with oil/gas via separate supply channels ( 10, 11 ) for each sector, thus making it possible to differentiate the supply of oil/gas around the circumference of the casting piece.
