TRANSPORT DEVICE FOR SLABS, COMPRISING AT LEAST TWO LINEAR CONVEYING SECTIONS WHICH CAN PIVOT INDEPENDENTLY OF EACH OTHER

摘要

The invention relates to a transport device (1) for slabs (2) which is arranged between at least two casting machines (3, 4, 5) and at least one rolling mill (6), wherein the transport device (1) has at least two linear and stationary conveying sections (7, 8, 9) on which a slab (2) can be conveyed in a conveying direction (F), and wherein the transport device (1) has at least two linear conveying sections (10, 11) which are arranged in a pivoting manner in order to convey a slab (2) at an angle (a) relative to the conveying direction (F). In order to enable improved guidance of the slabs (2) and flexible transport of the slabs (2) from the casting machines (3, 4, 5) to the rolling mill (6), according to the invention the at least two linear, pivotable conveying sections (10, 11) are arranged such that they can pivot independently of each other.
