DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING POSITION OF HEAT INSULATING BODY FOR SHORT SIDE OF SLAB FOR CONTINUOUS CASTING MACHINE

摘要

PURPOSE:To improve a heat insulating effect by comparing the end face position of a slab detected by a means for detecting the end face position of the slab and the position of a heat insulating body detected by a means for detecting the position of the heat insulating body and operating a mechanism for moving the heat insulating body. CONSTITUTION:The mechanism 8 for moving the heat insulating body moves the position of the heat insulating body 7 on the short side of the slab toward the transverse direction of the slab and the means 9 for detecting the end face position of the slab detects the lateral end face position of the slab S. The means 10 for detecting the position of the heat insulating body detects the moving position of the body 7. A control device 11 compares the end face position of the slab S detected by the means 9 and the position of the heat insulating body detected by the means 10 and operates the mechanism 9 so that the space between the body 7 and the lateral end face of the slab is maintained at the adequate heat insulating space.
