Definitions

  • the invention relates to a horizontal tape store, especially for metal strips, comprising one on one Frame at a variable distance from a fixed Belt guide roller movable sling carriage with at least a pulley for a variable length Belt storage loop and several support carriages with support rollers between belt guide roller and sling wagon, as well as an endless guided around pulleys and connected to the sling carriage flexible drive element that each with a drive wheel Support car guided interactively and of which the Travel drive of each support carriage relative to the travel path of the Loop car is derived.
  • strip stores are required to roll stands in To be able to operate rolling mills continuously, and indeed then, if tape material from individual bundles, before the introduction must be connected to each other in the rolling stand Rolling mill or rolling mill fed endlessly and by this should be rolled.
  • a strip store must for example in the form of a loop storage or Looper, provided in its capacity is designed in such a way that the strip then also passes through the roll stand or rolling mill can be fed continuously if the individual bundles prepared or welded together Need to become.
  • loop towers come Loop pits or horizontal ones, often called so-called loop puller called tape storage.
  • Horizontal tape stores are generally characterized by this characterized that they have one against the tensile force of the tape sling carriage and movable with restoring force in between have several support cars with support rollers that are also movably mounted. The restoring force will over ropes from a driven with constant drive Winch generated.
  • From DE-OS 1 953 169 is a horizontal tape storage for Strip processing plants with idlers between Loop car and supply or discharge rollers known, at which the support roll in one or more in Horizontal direction movable, so-called followers are stored. Between the sling car and everyone the closest follower is a driven one Rope drum arranged, which is an associated Connection rope tense. There is an endless loop car Chain with carriers attached for the individual followers.
  • EP-0 110 864 B1 is a horizontal tape store known who also has a movable sling car on which individual support car with the help of flexible tension members that can be pulled out against restoring force are coupled. These tension members should at least stretchable in some areas and, for example, as Rubber ropes or the like formed and looping be guided around pulleys. This training should smooth drive of the support car from the sling car Maintaining an even distance between the individual support cars ensure from each other.
  • the disadvantage here is that the flexible or elastic Rubber ropes age relatively quickly and become brittle and therefore wear out or tear quickly in an uncontrolled manner can, especially when exposed to radiant heat. Also can easily find rubber ropes in the harsh rolling mill environment be injured, so the risk of rapid tearing or breakage of the rubber cables is to be feared.
  • EP 0 388 708 B1 shows a horizontal tape store a movable loop carriage, on which individual Support car using a rope, a cam drum and one Torque motor are coupled. About each of the Curve drums are the respective distance between the Support car generated, with a uniform torque of Motors keeps the cable connections under tension. Disadvantageous is similar to the aforementioned DE-OS 1 953 169 in this Tape storage that for each support car its own Torque motor arranged and the power supply also provided via a conductor rail or a cable garland have to be. The aforementioned disadvantages still apply to this.
  • AT-PS 299 103 is a horizontal tape storage for Sheet metal strips with a movable and preferably with constant drive torque in the sense of an enlarged loop drivable loop car and several support cars known which are movable along guide rails.
  • An endless Rope is guided around the pulleys with the sling carriage and connected the support car. This rope is about Customer roles with the interposition of Reduction gear drive for the support car derived in such a way that when the Sling car the support carts are the same among themselves Distance.
  • the invention lies Task based, avoiding the ones discussed above
  • Disadvantages and difficulties of a horizontal tape storage indicate the connection between the Support carriage and the sling carriage for a trouble-free and prefers maintenance-free operation in a simple manner are trained and that make it possible in the process of the sling car in the sense of a sling change
  • the spacing of the support carriages can be changed smoothly and are constant with each other, so that conditions for optimal guidance of the belt on the support rollers of the Support cars are given.
  • the lower drive element replaces that of the State of the art motor-driven, widely used Winches on the support car and take care of that automatically Training of uniform distances when retracting and extending the Sling car or the storage loops.
  • the gear ratios of the individual support cars are like this chosen that the respective distance between the sling car and the stationary belt deflection roller always at the same intervals is divided.
  • the flexible Drive elements a V-belt, a tooth chain, a Roller chain, a link chain or a toothed belt.
  • the drive elements toothed belt and with this interacting drive wheels as a pinion are trained. This way, a safe, Quiet and slip-free operation of the tape storage reached.
  • the horizontal tape storage shown in Figure 1 for Sheet metal strips (1) comprises one on a frame (2) in variable distance relative to a fixed belt pulley (10) movable loop carriage (11) with the deflection rollers (12 - 14) for at least one length-adjustable supply loop (3) or double loop (40, Fig. 3) of the band (1), and Support rollers (15-18, Fig. 4, Fig. 5) for the belt (1) having support car (19) and an endless around pulleys (4, 5) guided, connected to the loop carriage (11) flexible drive element (6) with a drive wheel (20) of each support carriage (19) guided and interacting which the drive of each support carriage (19) is derived.
  • Each support carriage (19) has at least two or more Support rollers (15-18), for example also four, six or ten.
  • the incoming belt (1) is fed into the conveyor belt via a deflection roller (26) horizontal tape storage introduced.
  • the sling wagon (11) is assigned with a winch (30) over ropes (32) and Deflection rollers against the tensile force of the loop (3) or Double loop (40, Fig. 3) in the drawn out Position held with restoring force.
  • the rope (33) is there at the end of the loop carriage (11) opposite Frame (2) over a guide roller (31) and has the Task, the sling carriage (11) in the unloaded state to move back the shortest position.
  • the flexible The drive element (6) is connected to the loop carriage (11) Arranged stop (27) firmly anchored on this.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 A summary of FIGS. 1 and 2 shows that that the drive element (6) on each support carriage (19) by one this arranged drive wheel (20) is wrapped around, where pulleys (23, 24) for a sufficiently large Ensure a wrap angle of approximately 120 °. 2 is shown in detail that the support carriage (19) on in Frame (2) laid rails (29) by means of wheels (34) movable and safe thanks to side guide wheels (35) is led.
  • the support carriage (19) has a second flexible drive element (7) stretched along the frame (2) and with a lower one the drive wheel (21) interacting with the drive element (7) of each support carriage (19) out.
