Abstract
A continuous casting mold for casting strands, such as billets and blooms having a cross-sectional shape possessing corners, preferably a four-cornered cross-section, comprising an upper mold part and a lower mold part. Walls movable independently of one another of the lower mold part are movable about pivot shafts or equivalent structure arranged transversely with respect to the direction of travel of the cast strand and operatively connected with the upper mold part. The independently movable walls of the lower mold part can be shifted under the action of resilient elements, such as springs, towards the hollow cavity or mold compartment. The pivot shaft connected with each wall is arranged to be movable in a transverse direction with respect to the side of the wall associated with the hollow cavity or compartment of the mold.
