TRANSPORTING BELT OF PLANT FOR CONTINUOUSLY CASTING METALLIC BANDS

摘要

FIELD: plants for continuous casting of metallic bands, for example steel bands. SUBSTANCE: transporting belt is supported by means of bearing unit arranged between drums and it is cooled at its back side. Belt 21 includes dead openings 22 uniformly spaced one from another along its back side. Said dead openings are mutually separated by means of bridges whose minimum width is equal to S. Common area of said bridges consists 0.15 - 0.40 of the whole area of transporting belt. Bottoms of said dead openings have thickness d. Such thickness allows bulging b less than 1 mm at heating belt by cast band and at simultaneously cooling upper surface 29 of dead openings. It prevents warping of band. EFFECT: improved design. 5 cl, 4 dwg
