Die vier Stellzylinder 18a, 18b; 19a, 19b der beiden an den beiden Seiten der Ständerfenster 16 angeordneten Stellzylindereinheiten 18, 19; 18, 19 sind durch einen Oberrahmen 30, einen Mittelrahmen 31 und einen Unterrahmen 32 miteinander verbunden.The four actuating cylinders 18a, 18b; 19a, 19b of the two arranged on the two sides of the stand window 16 Actuating cylinder units 18, 19; 18, 19 are by one Upper frame 30, a middle frame 31 and a lower frame 32 connected with each other.

Die auf den Stellzylindereinheiten 18 für die Ausbalancierung der Stützwalzen 10, 11 verschiebbar gelagerten Stellhülsen 24a, 24b für die Biegung der Zwischenwalzen 10, 11 sind zur Führung der Einbaustücke 8, 9 der Zwischenwalzen 6, 7 ausgebildet, und die auf den Stellzylindereinheiten 19 für die Ausbalancierung der Stützwalzen 10, 11 verschiebbaren Stellhülsen 25a, 25b dienen zur Führung der Einbaustücke 4, 5 der Arbeitswalzen 2, 3.The on the actuator units 18 for the Balancing of the support rollers 10, 11 slidably mounted Adjusting sleeves 24a, 24b for the bending of the intermediate rolls 10, 11 are for guiding the chocks 8, 9 of the intermediate rollers 6, 7 formed, and on the actuating cylinder units 19 for the Balancing of the support rollers 10, 11 displaceable Adjusting sleeves 25a, 25b serve to guide the chocks 4, 5 the work rolls 2, 3.

An einer Verlängerung 33 des Mittelrahmens 31 der beiden Stellzylindereinheiten 18, 19; 18, 19 an den beiden Seiten der Ständerfenster 16 ist jeweils ein weiterer, doppeltwirkender hydraulischer Stellzylinder 34 angelenkt. Bei Betätigung der Stellzylinder 34 werden die Stellzylindereinheiten 19 mit den Stellhülsen 25a, 25b für die Arbeitswalzeneinbaustücke 4, 5 um die Drehachsen 35-35, die durch die Stellzylindereinheiten 18 mit den in die Einbaustücke 12, 13 der oberen und unteren Stützwalze 10, 11 eintauchenden Stellkolben 20a, 20b gebildet sind, geschwenkt und dadurch eine parallele Horizontalverstellung h der Arbeitswalzen 2, 3 mit Bezug auf die Stützwalzen 10, 11 in oder gegen die Walzrichtung erreicht.On an extension 33 of the middle frame 31 of the two Actuating cylinder units 18, 19; 18, 19 on both sides of the Stand window 16 is another, double-acting hydraulic actuating cylinder 34 articulated. When pressing the Actuating cylinders 34, the actuating cylinder units 19 with the Adjusting sleeves 25a, 25b for the work roll chocks 4, 5 µm the axes of rotation 35-35, which are controlled by the actuating cylinder units 18 with the chocks 12, 13 of the upper and lower Support roller 10, 11 immersed adjusting piston 20a, 20b formed are pivoted and thereby a parallel Horizontal adjustment h of the work rolls 2, 3 with reference to the support rollers 10, 11 reached in or against the rolling direction.

Durch Beaufschlagen der Stellzylinder 18a und ggf. 18b mit einem Druck, der größer ist als der zur Kompensation der Gewichtskraft der oberen Stützwalze 10 und ggf. der unteren Stützwalze 11 erforderliche Druck, kann eine zur Anstellkraft entgegengesetzte Kraft erzeugt werden mit dem Ziel, kleine Walzkräfte mit höherer Genauigkeit regeln zu können.By acting on the actuating cylinders 18a and possibly 18b with a pressure greater than that to compensate for the Weight force of the upper support roller 10 and possibly the lower backup roller 11 required pressure can be used for Opposing force are generated with the The aim is to regulate small rolling forces with greater accuracy can.

Weder bei positiven noch bei negativen durch die Stellhülsen 24a, 24b; 25a, 25b erzeugten Biegekräften werden vertikale Kräfte in die Zylindergehäuse 22, 23 eingeleitet, und die Stellhülsen 24a, 24b; 25a, 25b können sich bei einer kommunizierenden Beaufschlagung mit einem Druckmittel, vorzugsweise Drucköl, je nach Walzenabschliff frei einstellen.Neither with positive nor with negative through the Adjusting sleeves 24a, 24b; 25a, 25b generated bending forces vertical forces are introduced into the cylinder housings 22, 23, and the adjusting sleeves 24a, 24b; 25a, 25b can be in a communicating pressurization, preferably pressurized oil, depending on the roll grinding.

Nach Abfangen des Gewichtes der oberen Stützwalze 10 und des oberen Stützwalzeneinbaustückes 12 und Entlasten der Zylinderkammern 22b, 22c, 23b, 23c der Stellzylindereinheiten 18, 19 werden die Stellkolben 20a, 20b durch die Druckfedern 28 in die Stellzylinder 18a, 18b gedrückt, so daß die Funktionseinheiten nach Lösen der Druckmittelverbindungen aus den Fenstern 16 der Walzenständer 14, 15 entnommen werden können.After catching the weight of the upper support roller 10 and the upper support roller chock 12 and relieve the Cylinder chambers 22b, 22c, 23b, 23c of the actuating cylinder units 18, 19, the actuating pistons 20a, 20b by the compression springs 28 pressed into the actuating cylinder 18a, 18b, so that the Functional units after loosening the pressure medium connections the windows 16 of the roller stands 14, 15 are removed can.

Durch teilweises Absperren der Druckkammern 36a, 36b; 37a, 37b; 38a, 38b und 39a, 39b der Stellhülsen 24a, 24b; 25a, 25b für die Biegung der Zwischenwalzen 6, 7 und der Arbeitswalzen 2, 3 und der Zylinderkammern 22b, 22c; 23b, 23c der Stellzylinder 18a, 18b; 19a, 19b zur Ausbalancierung der Stützwalzen 10, 11 gekoppelt mit dem gezielten Ansteuern der nicht abgesperrten Druck- bzw. Zylinderkammern wird der Ausbau jeder einzelnen Arbeitswalze 2, 3 und jeder einzelnen Zwischenwalze 6, 7 ermöglicht.By partially shutting off the pressure chambers 36a, 36b; 37a, 37b; 38a, 38b and 39a, 39b of the adjusting sleeves 24a, 24b; 25a, 25b for the bending of the intermediate rolls 6, 7 and Work rolls 2, 3 and the cylinder chambers 22b, 22c; 23b, 23c the actuating cylinder 18a, 18b; 19a, 19b for balancing the Back-up rolls 10, 11 coupled with the targeted activation the unclosed pressure or cylinder chambers becomes the Removal of each individual work roll 2, 3 and each one Intermediate roller 6, 7 allows.
