Starting head for continuous casting mold and associated method

Provided herein is a method and apparatus for a starting head of a continuous casting mold, and more particularly, to a starting head configured to rivet a casting for pulling the casting from a continuous casting mold in a manner that reduces stress within the casting thereby reducing the likelihood of stress cracks forming in the casting. An example start head for a continuous casting mold includes: a body; a top surface of the body; two or more grooves defined within the top surface, where each groove extends from a first end to a second end, where the first end of a respective groove is closer to a center of the top surface than the second end of the respective groove, and wherein a depth of the first end of the respective groove relative to the top surface is less than a depth of the second end of the respective groove relative to the top surface; and a riveting point defined by the second end of the corresponding groove. 本文提供一种用于连铸模具的起始头的方法和设备，且更具体地说，是关于一种配置成以减小铸件内的应力从而减小在所述铸件中形成应力裂纹的可能性的方式铆接所述铸件以用于从连铸模
