PRODUCTION OF FLAT METALLIC PLATE

摘要

PURPOSE:To manufacture an anode copper plate or the like having rugged parts in laterally symmetrical positions by pouring a molten metal into the opening between a broad groove on a rotary cylinder surface or grooves having ruggedness of a specified period provided on the side walls and an endless member and drawing out a partially solidified metallic plate. CONSTITUTION:A molten metal 20' is poured into the opening constituted between a broad groove 11 of a rotary cylinder 3 of a rotary caster 1 or a broad groove 11 having symmetrical grooves 12 of a specified period formed to the side walls 11' of the groove and an endless belt 5. A shell-solidified metallic plate is drawn out of the opening at the bottom end by means of pinch rollers 30. The metallic plate is thereafter cut by a shear 34 and an anode copper plate provided with a prescribed lug is obtd. Since the side wall parts 11' are integral with the cylinder 3, the construction is simple and there is no deviation in the rugged parts. If the cylindrical diameter is made adequate, the easy mass production of the anode copper plate having a prescribed shape is made possible.
