ABSTRACT:
A continuous casting machine has a flow through mold and a flexible starting bar composed of a plurality of short sections coupled by hinges which permit the sections to pivot inwardly to a slight degree but prevent outward pivotal movement beyond the machine's arcuate casting path. A storage assembly for the starter bar includes a pair of support stands each having spaced drive rolls disposed along the arcuate casting path through which the starter bar passes as it is moved into and out of its stored position. One roll of each stand is fixed and the other is mounted on a pivotal arm engaged by a hydraulic cylinder to provide a pinching effect on the starter bar as it is moved between its operative and stored positions.
