Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for bright grinding of scaled Hot strip or its free ends in a strip system, especially in preparation a connection by welding.
  • the invention has for its object a device for bright grinding of scaled hot strip, which indicate the grinding process of the scaled Tape in the shortest possible time to the required downtimes of the belt in the inlet section of a continuously operating belt system if possible largely cut.
  • the Grinding device equipped with two parallel grinding belts is one of which is an endless sanding belt with the belt top, and at the same time the other endless sanding belt with the underside of the belt for sanding in working contact is feasible.
  • An embodiment of the grinding device provides that each grinding belt over one of these drivable roller banks is excited.
  • the grinding device is designed such that each roller bank for Belt grinding on a surface of the upper or lower side of the belt Hot strip can be applied with grinding force at standstill.
  • the simultaneous grinding of the hot strip using endless grinding belts is advantageous from both sides, i.e. H. the band top and at the same time the Underside of the belt, the grinding process is significantly accelerated and satisfactory Result done in a short time.
  • roller banks are connected to one another in a variable manner via guides in such a way that their support roles face each other.
  • the grinding device is aligned transversely to the belt running direction.
  • the roller banks are connected to each other via guides, so that the support roles face each other exactly.
  • the arrangement of the roller banks is transverse to the running direction of the hot strip by a distance corresponding to at least the distance between two neighboring ones Rollers trained back and forth.
  • An embodiment of the grinding device provides that the ends of the roller banks are connected to one another in a variable manner via guides, so that there is an elongated rectangular grinding space between the roller banks, what causes the belt to be ground through this closed grinding space must be introduced and passed through. If this is for technical reasons Is perceived as disadvantageous, the invention sees in a further embodiment the grinder that they are in the open fork shape with two spaced-apart tines formed in parallel distance from which each with a roller bank having an endless grinding belt and preferably with a band clamp and with means for mutual Distance adjustment is equipped.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 The grinding device according to the invention shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is unique shown in the continuous position (Figure 1) and in the working position ( Figure 2).
  • the grinding device is equipped with two endless grinding belts 4 or 5 equipped, of which the one endless sanding belt 4 with the top of the belt 6, and at the same time the other endless sanding belt 5 with the belt underside 7 for Grinding can be brought into working contact.
  • Each grinding belt 4, 5 is one of these drivable roller bank 8, 9 tensioned.
  • Each roller bank 8, 9 is for belt grinding to a surface of the upper band 6 or the lower band 7 of the Hot strip 1 can be applied with grinding force when it stops.
  • the endless sanding belt is stretched over a roller bank 8, 9, in which at least one Roller 12 or 13, preferably the first or last roller, is driven.
  • the support rollers 12, 13 of two roller banks 8, 9 are mounted in frame 32 and are used for grinding as shown in Figure 2 against the stopped Tape put on.
  • the grinding device is transverse to the belt running direction 14 aligned.
  • roller banks 8, 9 are connected to one another via guides 10, 11, that they face each other.
  • the aforementioned is Arrangement of the grinding device by a little more than the distance of the Support rollers, that is to say move back and forth around area 15.
  • the grinding device is each by a belt clamping device 19 or 20 supplements, as shown in Figures 3 and 4.
  • the band clamps 19, 20 hold the belt 1 in the grinding device in a stable position.
  • the grinding device can be in one preferred embodiment in the form of a fork 16 open at the front two tines 17, 18 which are variable at a distance from one another are formed be, each of which has a roll bank having an endless grinding belt 4, 5 8, 9, and preferably with a band clamping device 19, 20 and with Means 21, 22 is equipped for mutual distance adjustment.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show that next to each roller bank 8, 9 on both sides Belt clamping devices 19, 20 are arranged for the purpose of stabilizing the belt 1 are.
  • the first grinding station 29 Since the first grinding station 29 is arranged directly behind the shear 23, it can the point cleaned after the grinding process is returned directly to the scissors become. Then the partial cut is made. This has the advantage that the tape in the undivided Condition is sanded and therefore an extraordinary when sanding has good stability.
  • the other positioning option is that a grinding device 28 arranged immediately after the merging of the two conveyor belt levels 25 can be.
  • a grinding device 28 arranged immediately after the merging of the two conveyor belt levels 25 can be.
  • the end of the tape 2 and the new beginning of the tape 3 in the Grinding device positioned and simultaneously grinded, as this from the Figure 8 emerges.
  • the general advantage of the invention with the aforementioned positioning options results from the fact that instead of a laser welding machine for welding from tape ends 2, 3 a conventional roller seam welding machine can be used to hot strips 1 or their free ends 2, 3 with each other to weld.
  • roller seam welding machines are used at least two times cheaper.
  • the advantage of this welding device is also that when converting an existing belt line for the use of hot strip makes the investment of a laser welding machine unnecessary makes.
  • the invention increases the economy when welding two strips or belt ends and is also suitable for retrofitting to existing belt systems.
