In the embodiment of FIG. 2, the upper blade 32a
The ceramic liner 7 is formed on the entire cutting edge surface including the cut surface K of the metal base 32 for both the lower blade 32b and the lower blade 32b. This is formed by, for example, thermal spraying of ceramics on the base material 32, adhesion of a ceramics plate, or the like. Further, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, both the upper blade 32a and the lower blade 32b are provided with the rubber or synthetic resin liner 8 on the blade tip surface excluding the cut surface K of the metallic base material 32. This is, for example, the cut surface K of the cutting edge surface of the substrate 32.
It is formed by making a portion other than the portion recessed from the cut surface K, and fitting and bonding a synthetic resin molded product or a rubber molded product into this portion.

Further, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, both the upper blade 32a and the lower blade 32b have a cut surface K of the metal base 32.
The liner 9 made of rubber or synthetic resin is formed not only on the blade tip surface except for, but on the opposite surface, the lower surface of the upper blade 32a, and the upper surface of the lower blade 32b. This is formed, for example, by forming the base material 32 with recesses for arranging each liner 9 and fitting and bonding a synthetic resin molded product or a rubber molded product thereto.

2 to 4 show the upper blade 32a and the lower blade 32b on the inlet side of the shear 5, but similar liners 7 to 9 are formed on the upper blade 31a and the lower blade 31b on the outlet side. Has been done. Therefore, like a conventional DC welder,
Even if the shear 5 and the electrodes are attached to the carriage frame side by side in the plate width direction and the carriage frame is moved in the plate width direction and used, the liners 7 to 9 of the shear 5 are generated by the magnetic field generated during welding. Since the portion formed with is not magnetized, the end plate rides on the strut conveyor 15 by the cutting operation by the shear 5 and is easily carried out to the outside of the lower blade holder 4b as shown by reference numeral 1'in FIG.

On the other hand, when the upper blade and the lower blade made of metal on which such a liner is not formed are used for the cutting operation, the upper blade and the lower blade are magnetized by the magnetic field during welding. The end plate is attracted to the cutting edge surface of the lower blade 32b as indicated by reference numeral 2 ', enters the gap between the strut conveyor 15 and the lower blade holder 4b, and is difficult to carry out to the outside.

Further, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, since the lining 7 is applied to the entire cutting edge surface including the cutting surface,
Processing of the base material becomes easier as compared with the fourth and fourth embodiments. Further, in the embodiment of FIG. 4, it takes more time to process the base material as compared with the other embodiments, but it is also possible to prevent the end plate from being sucked not only on the cutting edge surface but also on other portions. In the above-described embodiment, the non-magnetic material linings are provided on both the blade edges of the upper blade and the lower blade, but the present invention also includes those provided only on one of the blade edges. In particular, in the down-cut type shear as in the above-described embodiment, the end plate is likely to be adsorbed to the blade tip surface of the lower blade, and therefore it is preferable to always provide the lining on the blade tip surface of the lower blade.

As described above, according to the shear of the continuous steel plate process line of the present invention, even if the shear is arranged in the vicinity of the welding electrode, the lining edge surface is welded. The magnetic field generated at this time makes it difficult to magnetize and makes it difficult for the end plate after cutting to be attracted, so that the end plate can be easily carried out to the outside.
