Abstract
A strand guiding apparatus to be used in a continuous casting plant has a frame for the supporting devices of the strand, which frame is actuated by an adjustment means having a displacement ruler detachably connected to the frame by means of a quick lock. Upon release of the quick lock and retraction of the displacement ruler, the frame can be removed vertically upwardly.

A strand guiding means for guiding one side of a strand continuously cast in a continuous casting plant having a carrying structure and a continuous casting mould, the strand guiding means comprising:
- a frame part carrying support elements for said strand;
- an adjustment means for adjusting said frame part relative to the strand both toward said strand and away from said strand a sufficient distance to allow said frame part to clear the mould, which adjustment means includes a displacement ruler;
- and
- quick locking means detachably connecting said frame part with said displacement ruler to allow for a vertically upward removal of said frame part after release of said quick locking means and retraction of said displacement ruler.
A strand guiding means for guiding one side of a strand continuously cast in a continuous casting plant having a carrying structure and a continuous casting mould, the strand guiding means comprising:
- a frame part carrying supporting elements for said strand, said frame part having a lower pin and an upper pin, said lower pin being rigid and said upper pin being eccentrically structured and rotatable;
- an adjustment means for adjusting said frame part relative to the strand both toward said strand and away from said strand a sufficient distance to allow said frame part to clear the mould, which adjustment means includes a displacement ruler having an intermediate piece secured to said frame part in such a way that the frame part is pivotable in the direction toward the strand;
- and
- quick locking means detachably connecting said frame part with said displacement ruler to allow for a vertically upward removal of said frame part after release of said quick locking means and retraction of said displacement ruler, said quick locking means being formed by a double hook provided on the intermediate piece, the upper and lower pins of the frame part being hung in the double hook, at least one of said pins being retained in said hook by means of a detachable platelet.
