A continuous casting apparatus for the production of cast sheets having a casting space defined by a pair of opposed endless belts and a pair of side plates arranged near the side edge portions of the belts while being brought into intimate contact therewith and designed to be converged toward a drawing direction. In this apparatus, a filmy water flow-forming pad arranged behind each of the belts, and each of the side plates are so profiled that the casting space inclusive of the tapered portion depicts a smooth curve at at least a transition area from the taper end portion to a constant thickness portion.

A continuous casting apparatus for the production of cast sheets comprising a plurality of pairs of support rolls, a pair of opposed metal belts supported by said pairs of support rolls, said belts endlessly circulating while maintaining a gap such as to hold molten metal over a predetermined distance, a pair of side plates each located near the side edge portions of said belts and having a converged tapered shape in a drawing direction for cast sheet, said belts and side plates defining a casting space inclusive of a tapered portion, a filmy water flow-forming pad supporting each of said pair of opposed belts for guiding and cooling thereof, and water jetting means disposed on the surface of said pad for forming a filmy water flow for cooling said belts, each of the side plates being provided at its upper portion facing the molten metal with a refractory lining and at the remaining portion corresponding to at least a constant thickness portion of the casting space with a water cooling mechanism and being so profiled that the casting space inclusive of the tapered portion depicts a smooth curve in at least a transition area from the taper end portion of the casting space to the constant thickness portion thereof, and said transition area depicts an arc having a radius of curvature of 500 to 5,000 mm.
