APPARATUS FOR COOLING A METAL PRODUCT IN MOTION

摘要

Apparatus for cooling a metal product in motion An upper transverse caisson and a lower transverse caisson have apertures for the passage of cooling agent to a product passing between them. At least the upper caisson is divided into a central compartment corresponding to the central zone of the product, and two lateral compartments, corresponding respectively to the two edge zones of the product. The division into compartments is achieved by partitions which are perpendicular to the bottom of the upper caisson. The partitions form, inside of the upper caisson, a channel converting in the direction of motion of the product.
