Abstract
Abstract In a lifting-table-guide arrangement having two oppositely arranged vertical guide elements provided on each of two opposing sides of a mould lifting-table of a continuous casting plant, one of the two oppositely arranged vertical guide elements provided on each of two opposing sides is supported by two rollers mounted one above the other in a lifting-table-guide stand and the other one of the two oppositely arranged vertical guide elements provided on each of two opposing sides is supported by a single counter bearing. The counter bearing is designed as a bearing for a rocker having two rollers arranged at a distance from each other, which rollers support the other one of the two oppositely arranged vertical guide elements.
