Abstract
A casting nozzle for feeding molten metal into a moving casting mold of a caterpillar casting machine, including an elongated housing body having a slot-like outlet side (A), wherein multiple flow passages are formed in the housing body along its longitudinal direction (x) and over its width direction (B), through which passages molten metal can be channeled in the direction of the outlet side (A) and can be fed from there into the moving casting mold, wherein the housing body is of an at least two-part design in the direction of its height and has at least one upper shell and at least one lower shell, wherein the upper shell and the lower shell are spaced apart from one another by separating webs and the individual flow passages extend between the separating webs.
Claims11
A casting nozzle for feeding molten metal into a moving casting mold of a caterpillar casting machine, comprising:
- an elongated housing body with outlet slot side (A), wherein multiple flow passages are formed in the housing body along its longitudinal direction (x) and over its width direction (y), through which passages molten metal can be channeled in the direction of the outlet slot side (A) and can be fed from there into the moving casting mold,
- wherein the housing body is of an at least two-part design in the direction of its height (z) and has at least one upper shell and at least one lower shell, wherein the upper shell and the lower shell are spaced apart from one another by separating webs and the individual flow passages extend between the separating webs, wherein
- the housing body includes multiple upper shells and multiple lower shells in its width direction (y), wherein, at an upper connection point, where two upper shells border one another, an opposite lower shell or a separating web has a continuous area, and wherein, at a lower connection point, where two lower shells border one another, an opposite upper shell or a separating web has a continuous area.
