PCT No. PCT/FR90/00032 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 10, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 10, 1991 PCT Filed Jan. 16, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/07998 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 26, 1990.This device (27) for suspending the upper spacer (20) is carried by a longitudinal beam (40) for clamping the walls (25) of the mould (5), each wall (25) consisting of a support frame (30) and a graphite block (31); the spacer (20) and the other spacers are clamped between the blocks (31) by the beams (40) actuated by the jacks (45), the slabs being cast between the blocks (31) and the four spacers; the device (27) comprises levers (51) which are mounted, so as to rotate, on the beam (40) and which carry screw jacks (61) connected by a bar (67) and which support the upper spacer (20); the angular position of the levers (51), controlled by a dual-action jack, determines the transverse position of the spacer (20) and the screw jacks (61), each provided with a double pivot, provide the spacer (20) with free pendular suspension. This mounting facilitates handling and maintenance operations of the mould, (5), particularly the removal of the supports (30) of the blocks (31). |
