A crossbow correction devicefor correcting crossbow of a steel strip S by a magnetic force during conveyance includes a plurality of electromagnetstotoarranged in a strip width direction of the steel strip S and facing each other so as to sandwich the steel strip S in a strip thickness direction, a moving mechanismtotocapable of moving the electromagnetstotorelative to the steel strip S, and a controllerconfigured to operate the moving mechanismtoto, based on a current value flowing through the electromagnetstoto

Crossbow correction device, molten metal plating facility, and crossbow correction method

When a portion for measuring the plating adhesion amount reaches an upstream side position, plating adhesion amount estimation values are calculated by using a plating adhesion amount estimation expression at positions away from a position that faces the distance sensors, that is, the upstream side position, by strip-width direction distances, of the surfaces of the steel strip. When the portion for measuring the plating adhesion amount reaches a downstream side position, the strip-width direction distances of the plating adhesion amount meters are matched to the strip-width direction distances, and the plating adhesion amount actual measurement values are obtained. The plating adhesion amount estimation expression is corrected on the basis of the differences between the plating adhesion amount estimation values and the plating adhesion amount actual measurement values. Accordingly, the control accuracy of the plating adhesion amount is improved.

Plating adhesion amount control mechanism and method for controlling an adhesion amount by comparing a plating adhesion amount estimation value at an upstream position and a plating adhesion actual amount at a downstream position

Provided are a molten metal plating facility and a method with which degradation in the surface quality of a strip can be prevented by preventing the adhesion of splashes. In a molten metal plating facility and a method for plating a strip (S) with molten metal by guiding the strip (S) into a molten metal bath (Mm) and then guiding the strip (S) upward, a pair of wiping nozzles () disposed so as to face a front surface side and a back surface side of the strip (S) guided upward is used to discharge air streams (Ea, Eb) toward a collision point (A) inside the strip (S) such that the first air streams spread out in a strip width direction of the strip (S), and a pair of outer nozzles () disposed so as to face a front surface side and a back surface side of an extended plane on an outer side of the strip (S) with respect to the strip width direction, above the wiping nozzles () and on each of both outer sides of the strip (S) with respect to the strip width direction is used to discharge air streams (Fa, Fb) toward a collision point (B) within the extended plane and below the collision point (A).
