The present invention provides a cooling device for a hot-dip plating device provided on an upper side of a plating thickness control device in a conveyance route of a hot-dip plated steel sheet that is conveyed from a plating bath in a vertically upward direction. The cooling device includes: a main cooling device that vertically sprays a main cooling gas to the hot-dip plated steel sheet; and a preliminary cooling device that is provided in a preliminary cooling section between the main cooling device and the plating thickness control device in the conveyance route, and sprays a preliminary cooling gas to a plurality of gas collision positions which are set along the preliminary cooling section.

A steel sheet shape control method includes, (A) setting a target correction shape of the steel sheet at a position of an electromagnet to a curved shape, (B) measuring a steel sheet shape when electromagnetic correction is performed, (C) calculating the steel sheet shape in a nozzle position based on the steel sheet shape, (D) repeating (B) and (C) by resetting the target correction shape to a curved shape having a smaller amount of warp, (E) when the amount of warp of the steel sheet shape at the position of the nozzle is less than the upper limit value, (F) calculating vibration of the steel sheet at the position of the nozzle, and (G) adjusting a control gain of the electromagnet until amplitude of vibration is less than a second upper limit value when the amplitude of the vibration is equal to or more than the second upper limit value.
