Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for endless winding of strip material in several Bundles, preferably of hot-rolled sheet in the hot state, on one at a time Reel mandrel of two arranged at a constant distance on a support device and each with its own drive device rotatable reel mandrels that are synchronous, however are alternately movable from a winding position to a coil removal position, and a procedure for this.
  • an endless belt which is usually of such a length, that it is no longer possible to wrap this endless belt into a single bundle. For example, if e.g. a pouring ladle with 95 t is poured off, this formed band are wrapped in at least three bundles.
  • each mandrel has its own drive, which on the Carrier plate or a parallel and rotating synchronously with the carrier plate another carrier plate is arranged.
  • this has the disadvantage that the electrical connections for the drive motors are difficult to achieve; it drive powers of up to 1000 kW are required due to the high coil weights.
  • the Transmission of electrical energy must be in accordance with the last-mentioned prior art via sliding contacts because the carousel reel rotates beyond 360 ° necessary is.
  • the transmission of electrical energy on this scale is not only expensive, but often gives rise to disruptions. These affect endless wrapping particularly disadvantageous.

  • a particularly simple mode of operation or construction of the device results if the winding position for each of the reel mandrels in the middle between the finished winding positions lies and is identical to the bundle removal position, with a bundle removal device is provided vertically below the winding position or the bundle removal position.
  • a preferred variant is characterized in that the reel mandrels in the axial Are spaced from each other on a support frame which by means of a Movement device moving the reel mandrels from a winding position a finished winding position or a bundle removal position is adjustable.
  • each reel mandrel on the carrier frame Drive device there is preferably a separate one for each reel mandrel on the carrier frame Drive device and own pressure rollers provided.
  • auxiliary winding device is provided, and the auxiliary winding device is expedient is designed, for example, as a basket roller winder or as a belt or chain winder, by means of an adjusting device in an auxiliary position encompassing a reel mandrel and in one away from this position, preferably below or behind that of the support frame formed level lying waiting position and vice versa can be brought.
  • Fig. 1 is a side view of device according to the invention
  • Fig. 2 is a plan view of the device from above
  • Fig. 3 shows a view in the direction of arrow III of Fig. 2.
  • Figure 4 illustrates a Detail of Fig. 1 on an enlarged scale according to another embodiment.
  • the device according to the invention has a support frame 1 which can be connected by means of e.g. Linear guides 2, rollers or shoes etc. on a foundation 3 at an angle mounted guide rails 4, which preferably have an angle ⁇ with the horizontal enclose between 40 and 45 °, can be moved back and forth.
  • a support frame 1 which can be connected by means of e.g. Linear guides 2, rollers or shoes etc. on a foundation 3 at an angle mounted guide rails 4, which preferably have an angle ⁇ with the horizontal enclose between 40 and 45 °, can be moved back and forth.
  • Articulated drive mechanism preferably a hydraulic pressure cylinder 5.
  • the support frame 1 carries on two brackets 6, 6 'each coiler mandrels 7, 7', their each own drive motors 8, 8 'also arranged on the respective brackets 6, 6' are. Each coiler mandrel 7, 7 'can thus be driven by its own drive motor 8, 8'.
