ABSTRACT:
An adjustable mold for a horizontal continuous casting apparatus includes an airtight cylindrical-shaped mold tube and an adjustable mold divided into a plural number of cooling plates in the direction of the periphery of the casting section and arranged after the airtight cylindrical-shaped mold tube. The plural number of cooling plates of the adjustable mold are able to move in the direction of the casting section radius. The inlet ends of each of the cooling plates of the adjustable mold are supported by support shafts that can have their position determined so that an inner diameter of an outlet end of the airtight cylindrical-shaped mold tube and an inner diameter of an inlet end of the adjustable mold can be brought into agreement. Thus, the plural number of cooling plates of the adjustable mold can swivel in the direction of the casting section radius around the support shaft by the reciprocating movement of a hydraulic cylinder provided to connect the side wall portion of a cooling box frame of the airtight cylindrical-shaped mold tube and the outlet end portion of each of the cooling plates of the adjustable mold.
