Abstract

A teeming trough for pouring molten metal into a mold. Cooling water jackets are formed at both sides of a horizontal body for molten metal teeming. Valves for adjusting cooling water feeds are disposed in cooling water feed paths for supplying cooling water into respective water cooling jackets. A lateral bend of the body at the forward end thereof is detected by a suitable sensor. The valves are controlled on the basis of the result of the sensor detection so that the balance between cooling water feeds to the water cooling jackets may be varied whereby a bend of the body can be corrected.
