Abstract

A roller apron framework for support- or drive rolls of a continuous casting installation wherein at least at one strand guide path each two rollers or rolls which follow one another in the direction of travel of the continuously cast strand are mounted in a common pivotal yoke and such yoke can be moved by piston-cylinder units substantially transversely with respect to the guided surface of the strand. The yoke is provided with impact surfaces and can be applied by means of the piston-cylinder units against support surfaces associated with each roller, the support surfaces being arranged at a stationary frame and limiting the path of application or adjustment of the rollers at the strand.
