Abstract

A hot-strip cooling device and a cooling method are provided wherein uniform cooling of a hot-rolled steel strip using coolant is possible from the leading end to the trailing end of the steel strip. A cooling device (10) includes a plurality of round nozzles (15) disposed obliquely in such a manner as to eject rod-like flows of coolant at an ejection angle θ toward the upstream side in a direction in which a steel strip (12) travels, and a pinch roll (11) disposed on the upstream side with respect to the round nozzles (15) and configured to pinch the steel strip (12) in combination with a roller table (8).
