Definitions

  • the present invention relates to methods and apparatuses for producing metal bars wherein at least four strands of metal bars, particularly steel bars, are obtained by simultaneously rolling from a single billet.
  • a steel bar of 9 to 20 mm in diameter as a concrete bar for reinforcing concrete is produced in large quantities.
  • the bar includes not only a bar whose cross section is substantially round, but also a bar whose cross section is slightly oval or square-shaped and a ribbed bar which is the above-mentioned bar, on which ribs are formed.
  • Said bars are produced by a bar rolling mill generally having 16 to 20 stands in the following manner:
  • a finishing rolling train is composed of 4 stands K 4 , K 3 , K 2 , and Ki.
  • the K 4 and K 3 stands roll a preformed billet to produce three strands of bars 2a, 2b and 2c connected to each other by means of thin connecting portions 2d and 2e as shown in Figure 9 (A).
  • a pair of slit rolls cuts the three strands of bars 2a, 2b and 2c along the connecting portions, and then K 2 stand, composed of a pair of calibered rolls, rolls the three cut strands of bars 2a, 2b and 2c to produce bars of oval cross section as shown in Figure 9(B), and the K 1 stand, composed of a pair of rolls with a finishing caliber (a bore type), rolls the three strands to produce final product bars 3a, 3b, and 3c as shown in Figure 9(C).
  • Figure 9(A) shows a state of rolling a billet at the stand K 3 .
  • Figure 9(B) shows a state of strands having been cut off by means of a pair of slit rolls, following the K 2 stand.
  • Figure 9(C) shows the shapes of bars 3a, 3b and 3c after the bars have been rolled at the stand K i .
  • the "Prior Art 1" is limited to simultaneously producing three strands of bars from a single preformed billet by means of such a finishing rolling train.
  • the present invention provides a method for producing metal bars, which solves said problems and is further improved, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for simultaneously producing at least four metal bars and an apparatus therefor.
  • the present invention proposes a new construction of a finishing rolling train and a new rolling method for producing metal bars wherein the conventional roughing rolling train is used.
  • the stands of a finishing rolling train are stands K 4 , K 3 , K 2 and K 1 arranged in series in the rolling direction.
  • reference numeral 9 denotes a final stand K 5 in a roughing rolling train.
  • the final stand has a pair of vertical rolls (hereafter referred to as "V roll") and finally controls the shape of a preformed billet supplied to the next stand K 4 .
  • Reference numeral 11 denotes a stand K 4 , 13 a stand K 3 16 a first pair of slit rolls, 17 a second pair of slit rolls, 18 a stand K 2 and 20 a stand K i .
  • An ordinary roughing rolling train (not shown) is arranged before the stand Ks.
  • a finishing billet yard is laid out, which includes cutting devices and cooling beds. Roll calibers arranged in the stands as shown in Figure 1 and a process of deformation of strands are described with specific reference to Figure 2.
  • Figure 2(A) shows a shape of a roll caliber of said stand K 5 and a shape of a preformed billet 10.
  • the stand K 5 provides a shape of the preformed billet 10 by means of a pair of V rolls required for rolling in the stand K 4 .
  • FIG 2(B) shows an oval caliber rolls 11 and the strands divided into four in the case of simultaneously rolling four strands.
  • the caliber roll 11 has three convex portions 11 a, 11 b and 11 c as shown in Figure 2(B) and divides the preformed billet 10 into four strands 12a through 12d having a substantially equal cross sectional area.
  • the depth of the convex portions is from 1 to 4 mm, and the four strands are sufficiently connected to each other with shallow cleavages.
  • the depth of the cleavages is from 10 to 20 % of the thickness of the strand 12.
  • the four strands divided are substantially square-shaped or oval in shape.
  • Figure 2(C) shows that the connected four strands are further rolled by the stand K 3 .
  • Both the outer roll calibers 13a and 13d are of oval shape or box-shaped and the roll calibers 13b and 13c at the intermediate portion are diamond-shaped in principle. Accordingly, both the outer strands 14a and 14d are box-shaped and the two strands 14b and 14c at the intermediate portion are diamond-shaped.
  • the four strands are connected to each other by means of thin connecting portions (hereinafter referred to as the "connecting portion") 14e through 14g.
  • Figure 2(D) shows that the connecting portions 14e and 14g of the connecting portions are cut by means of a first pair of slit rolls.
  • Figure 2(E) shows the four strands 14a through 14d after the center connecting portion 14f has been cut by means of a second pair of slit rolls.
  • Figure 2(F) shows roll calibers 18a through 18d and strands 19a through 19d in the stand K 2 .
  • the stand K 2 has oval roll calibers so that the four strands as shown in Figure 2(E) are rolled to be adapted to the final rolling, whereby four strands 19a to 19d of oval shape are formed.
  • Figure 2(G) shows roll calibers 20a through 20d on the stand K 1 for carrying out the final rolling.
  • the roll caliber is a round caliber.
  • the roll calibers in the stand K 1 are required to have the shape of the final product.
  • the roll caliber should be a caliber which gives ribs on the bars.
  • Approximate dimensions of the preformed billet are shown to show specific examples of the present invention.
  • a square billet of 150 mm in each side was rolled by means of a roughing rolling train.
  • a preformed billet 10 obtained in the final stand K 5 had a box-shape with a breadth of 41.24 mm and a thickness of 13.48 mm and the central portion of the preformed billet was swelling. Accordingly, the roll calibers also were box-shaped.
  • a roll caliber in the stand K 4 had a breadth of approximately 48.1 mm and had an oval shape as a whole, the maximum thickness of which was about 10.5 mm.
  • the roll caliber had convex portions 11 a through 11 at positions where the roll caliber was divided into about four equal portions.
  • the breadth of each of the divided strands was from 11.5 to 12.5 mm.
  • Each of both the outer roll calibers 13a and 13d in the stand K 3 had a breadth of about 7.9 mm and a thickness of 9.5 mm and had an oval shape.
  • Diamond-shaped roll calibers 13b and 13c at the intermediate portion had a breadth of about 11.4 mm and a thickness of 12 mm.
  • the connecting portions had a breadth of about 0.8 mm and a thickness of 1 mm or less.
  • Roll calibers 18a through 18d in the stand K 2 had a breadth of 17.8 mm and a thickness of 6.6 mm and were flat oval- shaped.
  • Roll calibers 20a through 20d in the stand K 1 were round calibers of about 8.9 mm in diameter. In consequence, a bar of about 8.8 mm in diameter as a final product could be produced.
  • Figure 3 is a top plan view showing an arrangement of a first pair of slit rolls 16 and a second pair of slit rolls 17 placed just behind a stand K 3 .
  • Reference numerals 16c, 16d and 17b denote guides for controlling the directions of movement of cut strands.
  • the strands 14a through 14d are cut off as shown in Figure 4.
  • the present invention is characterized in that connecting portions of two strands 14a and 14d on the outer sides out of divided four strands 14a through 14d are cut off by means of two edges 16a and 16b of a first pair of slit rolls 16.
  • the important points in the shape of the two edges 16a and 16b consist in that the edges are formed so that the cut strands 14a and 14d can be directed outwardly, as shown by the arrows in Figure 3.
  • the two central strands 14b and 14c are cut off along the connecting portion 14f by means of the edge 17a of the second pair of slit rolls 17 as shown in Figure 5.
  • the angle of the edge 17a of the second pair of slit rolls is formed so that the cut strand can be directed outwardly.
  • the present invention is characterized in that initially both the outer strands are cut off and then two inside strands are sequentially cut off, in contrast to the Prior Art 2.
  • a method is adopted wherein the strands are sequentially cut off from both the outer strands to the central portion thereof.
  • This method has an advantage in that the position of the second pair of slit rolls 17 can be fixed in relation to the position of the first pair of slit rolls 16 independent of the rolling speed of the strands and that the cutting of the strands can be performed to change of the rolling speed and the like.
  • the first pair of slit rolls 16 and the second pair of slit rolls 17 are accommodated into a housing 22.
  • Reference numeral 23 denotes a guide for leading cut strands.
  • the device as a whole is referred to as a slit roll guide.
