Casting system with a device for applying fluid onto a cast strip

Abstract

The invention relates to a casting system ( 1 ) having a reservoir ( 2 ) for a fluid ( 3 ), such as, in particular, liquid metal, a dispensing chamber ( 5 ) connectable by a connection ( 4 ) with the reservoir, and an application device ( 7 ) with which the fluid is spreadable to a predetermined width and with which it is spread on a movable strip ( 9 ), wherein the connection between the dispensing chamber and the application device is formed as a closed tubular connection ( 6 ).

1 . A casting system ( 1 ), comprising, in particular, a reservoir ( 2 ) for a fluid ( 3 ), such as, in particular, liquid metal; a dispensing chamber ( 5 ) connectable by a connection ( 4 ) with the reservoir; and an application device ( 7 ) with which the fluid is spreadable to a predetermined width and with which it is spread onto a movable strip ( 9 ), characterized in that
 the connection between the dispensing chamber and the application device is formed as a closed tubular connection ( 6 ), and the application device ( 20 ) has a bottom ( 21 ) with side walls ( 22 ,  23 ), wherein at the end of the device ( 20 ) remote from the dispensing chamber, a closure wall ( 26 ) is provided, and between the closure wall ( 26 ) and a remote wall ( 25 ), an outlet opening ( 27 ) is provided.   
     
     
         2 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the tubular connection ( 6 ) is a closed pipe.   
     
     
         3 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the tubular connection ( 6 ) includes a plurality of closed pipes.   
     
     
         4 . A casting system according to  claim 3 , characterized in that
 pipes of the plurality of closed pipes ( 6 ) are arranged beneath and/or next to each other.   
     
     
         5 . A casting system according to  claim 3 , characterized in that
 the plurality of closed pipes ( 6 ) is arranged parallel to each other.   
     
     
         6 . A casting system according to  claim 3 , characterized in that
 the plurality of closed pipes ( 6 ) is arranged relative to each other in a fan-like manner.   
     
     
         7 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the end profile ( 13 ) of at least one pipe ( 6 ) is flattened and/or spread.   
     
     
         8 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the inlet ( 12 ) for the fluid, for such as liquid metal, is located, during operation of the system, in a region of the dispensing chamber ( 5 ) beneath the surface of the fluid ( 3 ) in the dispensing chamber ( 5 ).   
     
     
         9 . (canceled) 
     
     
         10 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the outlet opening ( 27 ) is provided in the bottom ( 21 ).   
     
     
         11 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the side walls ( 22 ,  23 ) and the closure wall ( 26 ) have essentially the same height.   
     
     
         12 . A casting system according to  claim 1 , characterized in that
 the remote wall ( 25 ) has a smaller height than the side walls ( 22 ,  23 ) and/or the closure wall ( 26 ).
