Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Walzvorrichtung mit einer Verstellvorrichtung, insbesondere zur Verstellung eines Horizontalversatzes einer Walze der Walzvorrichtung, insbesondere nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1, siehe z.B. JP-A 06269818 .The invention relates to a rolling device with an adjusting device, in particular for adjusting a horizontal offset of a roller of the rolling device, in particular according to the preamble of claim 1, see for example JP-A 06269818 ,

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Walzvorrichtungen oder auch Walzgerüste sind im Stand der Technik hinlänglich bekannt. Dabei sind Walzgerüste bekannt, bei welchen ein Horizontalver satz einer Arbeitswalze relativ zu den benachbarten Stützwalzen als Horizontalstabilisierung vorgenommen wird. Dies ist insbesondere notwendig, wenn mit der Walzvorrichtung verschiedene Stichprogramme gefahren werden sollen. Dabei sind als Verstellvorrichtungen Getriebeelemente zur Verstellung, Hydraulikzylinder und Keilverstellungen mittels eines verschiebbaren Keils bekannt. Verstellvorrichtungen mit Keilen sind beispielsweise durch die DE 17 770 54 A bekannt geworden. Die EP 0 154 896 B1 offenbart sowohl Hydraulikzylinder als auch mechanische Verstellgetriebe.Rolling or rolling mills are well known in the art. Here, rolling mills are known in which a horizontal offset rate of a work roll is made relative to the adjacent support rollers as horizontal stabilization. This is particularly necessary if you want to run different stitch programs with the rolling device. Here are known as adjusting transmission elements for adjustment, hydraulic cylinder and wedge adjustments by means of a movable wedge. Adjustments with wedges are for example by the DE 17 770 54 A known. The EP 0 154 896 B1 discloses both hydraulic cylinders and mechanical adjusting gears.

Bei den mechanischen Verstellvorrichtungen ist es nachteilig, dass die Vorrichtungen zum Einen die eingestellte Position verlieren, d.h. dass die eingestellte Position sich im Laufe des Betriebs verstellt. Dies erfolgt nachteilig bei Verstellvorrichtungen mit eingebauten Getrieben, weil eine Selbsthemmung der Getriebe oder eine Bremse nicht vorliegt und somit bei einer Belastung eine Verschiebung der Position eintritt. Dies bedeutet auch, dass der Sensor oder Geber, der zur Überwachung verwendet wird, seine absolute Position verliert. Darüber hinaus ist es bei Walzvorrichtungen mit Getrieben der Fall, dass für die Getriebe relativ große Raumbereiche in den Walzenständem vorgesehen werden, so dass die Vorrichtungen daher sehr groß und auch schwer ausfallen.In the case of the mechanical adjusting devices, it is disadvantageous that the devices lose the set position on the one hand, ie that the set position is adjusted in the course of operation. This is disadvantageous in adjusting devices with built-in gears, because a self-locking of the gearbox or a brake is not present and thus occurs at a load displacement of the position. This also means that the sensor or encoder, which is used for monitoring loses its absolute position. In addition, it is the case with rolling gears with the case that relatively large space areas are provided in the Walzenständem for the transmission, so that the devices therefore very large and heavy.

Weiterhin findet sich zum Anderen der Effekt der mangelnden Reproduzierbarkeit der einzustellenden Position. Auch ist der benötigte Bauraum relativ groß. Dies ist bei Verstellvorrichtungen mit Keilen der Fall. Dabei kann es auch vorkommen, dass die Verstellkeile bei der Inbetriebnahme zu weit herausgezogen werden und somit der Kontakt zu dem zu verschiebenden Bereich verlieren. Auch dadurch verliert der Geber seine Position und eine genaue Positionsregelung kann nicht mehr stattfinden. Typischer Weise sehen die Keile auch weit antriebsseitig und bedienungsseitig aus dem Walzgerüstbereich heraus, so dass dies auch wiederum ungünstig für die Walzenwechseleinrichtung ist und eine größere Verkleidung bedingt. Auch dies ist mit erhöhtem Aufwand verbunden und daher nachteilig.On the other hand, there is the effect of the lack of reproducibility of the position to be set. Also, the required space is relatively large. This is the case with adjusting devices with wedges. It can also happen that the adjusting wedges are pulled out too far during commissioning and thus lose contact with the area to be moved. This also causes the encoder to lose its position and exact position control can no longer take place. Typically, the wedges also see far drive side and operator side out of the rolling stand area, so that this in turn is unfavorable for the roll changing device and requires a larger fairing. Again, this is associated with increased effort and therefore disadvantageous.

Darstellung der Erfindung, Aufgabe, Lösung, VorteilePresentation of the invention, object, solution, advantages

Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Walzvorrichtung zu schaffen, mittels welcher die Nachteile des Standes der Technik vermindert, wenn nicht gar verhindert werden können.It is the object of the present invention to provide a rolling device by means of which the disadvantages of the prior art can be reduced, if not prevented.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe durch eine Walzvorrichtung mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhaft sind an jedem Ende der Walze zwei sich gegenüberliegende Verstellvorrichtungen vorhanden.According to the invention the object is achieved by a rolling device with the features of claim 1. Advantageously, two opposing adjusting devices are provided at each end of the roller.

Auch ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Verstellvorrichtung zwei Druckräume aufweist zur Druckbeaufschlagung des Kolbens, wobei jeweils ein Raum auf den jeweils gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Kolbens angeordnet sind. So kann die Position des Kolbens sicher eingestellt oder gesteuert werden.It is also advantageous if the adjusting device has two pressure chambers for pressurizing the piston, wherein in each case a space on the respective opposite sides of the piston are arranged. Thus, the position of the piston can be set or controlled safely.

Weiterhin ist es zweckmäßig, wenn eine mit dem Kolben verbundene Kolbenstange über eine Hebelanordnung die Walze direkt oder indirekt in Verstellrichtung der Walze beaufschlagt, wobei der Kolben in Richtung parallel zur Walzenachse verstellt wird und der zumindest eine Hebel der Hebelanordnung die Verstellung der Walze senkrecht zur Walzenachse bewirkt.Furthermore, it is expedient if a piston rod connected to the piston via a lever arrangement acts on the roller directly or indirectly in the adjustment direction of the roller, the piston being parallel to the roller axis is adjusted and the at least one lever of the lever arrangement causes the adjustment of the roller perpendicular to the roll axis.

Auch ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Position des Kolbens mittels eines Sensors detektierbar ist. Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, wenn der Sensor in das Gehäuse der Verstellvorrichtung integriert ist oder mit diesem verbunden ist, wie insbesondere an dieses von außen montiert ist. Dabei kann vorteilhaft die Position des Sensors nicht verloren gehen, weil der Sensor mit dem verschiebbaren Element der Kolben-Zylindereinheit oder mit den relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Elementen direkt verbunden werden kann.It is also advantageous if the position of the piston can be detected by means of a sensor. It is expedient if the sensor is integrated in the housing of the adjusting device or is connected thereto, as in particular is mounted on this from the outside. In this case, the position of the sensor can advantageously not be lost because the sensor can be directly connected to the displaceable element of the piston-cylinder unit or to the elements which can be displaced relative to one another.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.Advantageous developments are described in the subclaims.

Bevorzugte Ausführung der ErfindungPreferred embodiment of the invention

Die Figur 1 zeigt schematisch eine Ansicht einer Walzvorrichtung 1 mit einem Gerüst 2, wie Walzgerüst, mit vier Ständerpfosten 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, und mit einer im Raumbereich zwischen den Ständerpfosten 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d angeordneten Arbeitswalze 3, die in Walzenlagern bzw. Arbeitswalzenbiegeblöcken 4 gelagert aufgenommen ist. Zwischen den Ständerposten 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d des Gerüsts 2 und den Walzenlagern bzw. Arbeitswalzenbiegeblöcken bzw. Verschiebeblöcken 4 sind Verstellvorrichtungen 5 vorgesehen, um die Walze oder die Arbeitswalze 3 in Richtung 6 senkrecht zur Achsrichtung 7 der Walze zu verlagern. Dazu ist die Walze 3 an einem Einbaustück 8 gelagert aufgenommen.The FIG. 1 schematically shows a view of a rolling device 1 with a framework 2, such as rolling stand, with four stud posts 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, and arranged in the space between the stud posts 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d Work roll 3, which is stored stored in roller bearings or work roll bending blocks 4. Adjusting devices 5 are provided between the uprights 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, 2 d of the framework 2 and the roller bearings or work roll bending blocks or displacement blocks 4 in order to displace the roller or the work roll 3 in the direction 6 perpendicular to the axial direction 7 of the roller. For this purpose, the roller 3 is stored mounted on a chock 8.

Die Verstellvorrichtungen 5 dienen somit zur Horizontalverstellung der Walze 3 in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Achse der Walze 3.The adjusting devices 5 thus serve for horizontal adjustment of the roller 3 in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the roller third

Wie in Figur 1 zu erkennen, sind die Verstellvorrichtungen 5 derart angeordnet, dass sie eine Verstellbewegung in Richtung des Pfeils 6 senkrecht zur Achse 7 ansteuern.As in FIG. 1 to recognize the adjusting devices 5 are arranged such that they drive an adjustment movement in the direction of the arrow 6 perpendicular to the axis 7.

Gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird bei einer Walzvorrichtung die Verstellvorrichtung 10 gebildet durch einen Druckmittelaktuator, wie einen Hydraulikaktuator 11, wie er in Figur 2 dargestellt ist.According to one embodiment of the invention, in a rolling device, the adjusting device 10 is formed by a pressure medium actuator, such as a hydraulic actuator 11, as in FIG. 2 is shown.

Zwischen der Walze 13 und dem Ständerpfosten 12 ist der Hydraulikaktuator 11 derart angeordnet, dass ein Druckraum 25 gebildet ist zwischen dem Bauteil 23 und dem Bauteil 18. Dabei kann in den Druckraum 25 ein Druckmittel eingelassen oder unter Druck gesetzt werden, so dass die beiden Bauteile 23 und 18 voneinander weg beaufschlagt werden und sich entsprechend voneinander weg verlagern oder dass sie sich aufeinander zu bewegen.Between the roller 13 and the stator post 12 of the hydraulic actuator 11 is arranged such that a pressure chamber 25 is formed between the component 23 and the component 18. In the pressure chamber 25, a pressure medium can be admitted or pressurized, so that the two components 23 and 18 are impelled away from each other and move accordingly away from each other or that they move towards each other.

Darüber hinaus ist ein Kolben 14 in einem Zylinderraum 15,16 aufgenommen, so dass zwei druckmittelbeaufschlagbare Zylinder oder Räume 15,16 gebildet sind, wobei die Räume 15 und 16 jeweils auf einer Seite des Kolbens 14 angeordnet sind, so dass eine Druckbeaufschlagung des Raums 15 den Kolben 14 in Richtung Walze beaufschlagt und eine Druckbeaufschlagung des Raums 16 den Kolben 14 in Richtung von der Walze weg beaufschlagt. Durch die Kolben-Zylindereinheit 14,15,16 wird eine Haltevorrichtung bzw. Einstellvorrichtung geschaffen, welche als ein Rückhaltezylinder ausgebildet ist und der auch dazu dient die Elemente 20,21 und 23 zurückzuziehen.In addition, a piston 14 is received in a cylinder chamber 15,16, so that two druckmittelbeaufschlagbare cylinder or chambers 15,16 are formed, wherein the spaces 15 and 16 are each arranged on one side of the piston 14, so that a pressurization of the space 15th the piston 14 is acted upon in the direction of roller and a pressurization of the space 16, the piston 14 is acted upon in the direction away from the roller. By the piston-cylinder unit 14,15,16 a holding device or adjusting device is created, which is formed as a retaining cylinder and which also serves to withdraw the elements 20,21 and 23.

Der Raumbereich 15,16 wird in einem Gehäuse 17 gebildet, welches mit dem Ständerpfosten 12 verbunden ist. Vorteilhaft ist das Gehäuse 17 zweiteilig ausgebildet und aus den beiden Teilgehäusen 18,19 aufgebaut. Der Kolben ist mit seinem Kolbenkörper in dem Gehäuse 17 aufgenommen und ragt mit einer Kolbenstange durch eine Öffnung im Teilgehäuse 18, wo es mit dem Walzenlager 20 verbunden ist. Vorteilhaft kann noch ein Zwischenelement 21 vorgesehen sein, welches eine Führung in Richtung senkrecht zur Bewegungsrichtung der Verstellvorrichtung und senkrecht zur Walzenachse erlaubt.The space area 15, 16 is formed in a housing 17, which is connected to the stud post 12. Advantageously, the housing 17 is formed in two parts and constructed from the two sub-housings 18,19. The piston is received with its piston body in the housing 17 and protrudes with a piston rod through an opening in the housing part 18, where it is connected to the roller bearing 20. Advantageously, an intermediate element 21 may be provided which allows a guide in the direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the adjusting device and perpendicular to the roll axis.

Auch der Zylinder des Raumbereichs 25 wird durch die Elemente 23,18 gebildet und ist in einer Ausnehmung des Blocks 17 aufgenommen.Also, the cylinder of the space portion 25 is formed by the elements 23, 18 and is received in a recess of the block 17.

Neben der Anordnung des Zylinders 14 in dem Gehäuse 17 mit den Zylinderräumen 15,16 befindet sich in dem Gehäuse 17 weiterhin ein Sensor 22, welcher die Position des von dem Zylinder 25 betätigten Elements 23 mittelbar oder unmittelbar detektiert. Dabei weist der Sensor 22 einen Stift 24 auf, welcher sich an dem Element 21 oder mit dem damit verbundenen Element 23 abstützt.In addition to the arrangement of the cylinder 14 in the housing 17 with the cylinder chambers 15,16 is in the housing 17, a sensor 22, which detects the position of the actuated by the cylinder 25 element 23 directly or indirectly. In this case, the sensor 22 on a pin 24, which is supported on the element 21 or with the associated element 23.

Besonders vorteilhaft an dieser Ausführungsform ist die gute Steuerbarkeit der Position durch die druckbeaufschlagbaren Räume oder Zylinder 25 und/oder 15,16, so dass die Position des Elements 23 und/oder des Kolbens 14 jederzeit eindeutig eingestellt werden kann und somit auch die Position der Walze 13. Weiterhin ist die Ausführung gemäß Figur 2 besonders kompakt aufgebaut, da die Hydraulikeinheit mit Kolben-/Zylindereinheit 25 direkt auf die Walze 3 wirkt.Particularly advantageous in this embodiment is the good controllability of the position by the pressurizable spaces or cylinders 25 and / or 15,16, so that the position of the element 23 and / or the piston 14 can be adjusted at any time clearly and thus the position of the roller 13. Furthermore, the execution according to FIG. 2 constructed particularly compact, since the hydraulic unit with piston / cylinder unit 25 acts directly on the roller 3.

Gemäß einem weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsbeispiel wird die Verstellvorrichtung 30 gebildet durch einen Druckmittelaktuator, wie einen Hydraulikaktuator 31, welcher über eine Hebelanordnung 32 auf die Walze 3 wirkt, wie er in Figur 3 dargestellt ist. Zwischen der Walze 3 und dem Ständerpfosten 33 ist der Hydraulikaktuator 31 derart angeordnet, dass der Kolben 34 in einem Zylinderraum 35,36 aufgenommen ist und zwei druckmittelbeaufschlagbare Räume 35,36 bildet, wobei die Räume 35 und 36 jeweils auf einer Seite des Kolbens 34 angeordnet sind, so dass eine Druckbeaufschlagung des Raums 35 den Kolben 34 nach rechts bewegt bzw. beaufschlagt und eine Druckbeaufschlagung des Raums 36 den Kolben 34 nach links bewegt bzw. beaufschlagt.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the adjusting device 30 is formed by a pressure medium actuator, such as a hydraulic actuator 31, which acts on the roller 3 via a lever arrangement 32, such as he in FIG. 3 is shown. Between the roller 3 and the stator post 33, the hydraulic actuator 31 is arranged such that the piston 34 is accommodated in a cylinder space 35, 36 and forms two pressure-medium-loadable spaces 35, 36, the spaces 35 and 36 being arranged on one side of the piston 34, respectively so that pressurization of the space 35 moves the piston 34 to the right, and pressurization of the space 36 moves the piston 34 to the left.

Der Raumbereich 35,36 wird in einem Gehäuse 37 gebildet, welches mit einem Gehäuse 38 verbunden ist, welches die Hebelanordnung 32 aufnimmt, was wiederum am Ständerpfosten 33 befestigt ist. Vorteilhaft ist das Gehäuse 37 zweiteilig ausgebildet und aus den beiden Teilgehäusen 39,40 aufgebaut, wo bei das Teil 39 topfartig ausgebildet ist und das Teil 40 nach Art eines Flansches ausgebildet ist. Der Flansch 40 weist dabei eine Öffnung auf durch welche die Kolbenstange 41 ragt, um über die Hebelanordnung 32 die Walze 3 zu verlagern. Im Bereich der Öffnung des Flansches 40 ist weiterhin eine Abdichtung 42 vorgesehen.The space portion 35,36 is formed in a housing 37 which is connected to a housing 38 which receives the lever assembly 32, which in turn is attached to the stud post 33. Advantageously, the housing 37 is formed in two parts and constructed of the two sub-housings 39,40, where in the part 39 is pot-shaped and the part 40 is formed in the manner of a flange. The flange 40 in this case has an opening through which the piston rod 41 protrudes in order to displace the roller 3 via the lever arrangement 32. In the region of the opening of the flange 40, a seal 42 is further provided.

Die Kolbenstange 41 ist mit einer axial verschiebbaren Stange 43 verbunden, welche mit einem Gelenk 44 ausgebildet ist, an welchem ein Hebelarm 45 gelenkig angebunden ist. Der Hebelarm ist über ein weiteres Gelenk 46 mit dem Element 21 gelenkig verbunden. Dieses Teil 21 ist wiederum mit dem Walzenlager 20 verbunden, so dass eine Verlagerung des Elements 21 unmittelbar auf die Walze 3 übertragen wird.The piston rod 41 is connected to an axially displaceable rod 43, which is formed with a hinge 44 to which a lever arm 45 is hingedly connected. The lever arm is articulated via a further joint 46 with the element 21. This part 21 is in turn connected to the roller bearing 20, so that a displacement of the element 21 is transmitted directly to the roller 3.

Bei einer Verlagerung des Kolbens 34 aufgrund einer Druckbeaufschlagung der Druckräume 35 und/oder 36 wird die Kolbenstange 41 verlagert und auf eine vorgebbare Position eingestellt. Dadurch wird die Stange, wie beispielsweise Schubstange, axial verlagert und damit auch das Gelenk 44. Da das Walzenlager 20 in Richtung der Walzenachse im Wesentlichen unverschieblich ausgebildet ist, verändert sich durch die Verlagerung des Gelenkpunkts 44 die relative Lage des Hebelarms 45 in seiner Winkellage zur Achse der Walze oder zu einer Senkrechten dazu betrachtet und somit wird der Abstand zwischen dem Ständer 33 und der Walze definiert und eingestellt. Damit die Walzenlager in Richtung parallel zur Walzenachse im Wesentlichen unverschieblich sind, werden diese mit den Führungen 47 verriegelt, welche nur eine Bewegung in Richtung senkrecht zur Walzenachse erlauben.Upon a displacement of the piston 34 due to a pressurization of the pressure chambers 35 and / or 36, the piston rod 41 is displaced and adjusted to a predeterminable position. Thereby, the rod, such as push rod, axially displaced and thus the joint 44. Since the roller bearing 20 is formed substantially immovable in the direction of the roll axis, changes the position of the lever arm 45 in its angular position by the displacement of the pivot point 44 Axis of the roller or considered to a perpendicular thereto, and thus the distance between the stator 33 and the roller is defined and adjusted. Thus, the roller bearings are substantially immovable in the direction parallel to the roll axis, they are locked with the guides 47, which allow only a movement in the direction perpendicular to the roll axis.

Durch die Anordnung des Kolbens und der Schubstange parallel zur Walzenachse ergibt sich eine sehr kompakte Bauform der Verstellvorrichtung.The arrangement of the piston and the push rod parallel to the roll axis results in a very compact design of the adjustment.

Zur Erkennung der Position des Kolbens zur Regelung oder Steuerung der Position der Walze ist weiterhin ein Sensor 48 vorgesehen, welcher mittels eines Fühlers 49 die Lage des Kolbens detektiert. Dazu wird am Kopf des Gehäuses 39 eine Öffnung geschaffen, durch welche der Fühler 49 des Sensors 48 durchgreifen kann und in eine Öffnung oder Bohrung des Kolbens eingreifen kann.For detecting the position of the piston for controlling or controlling the position of the roller, a sensor 48 is furthermore provided, which detects the position of the piston by means of a sensor 49. For this purpose, an opening is provided at the head of the housing 39 through which the sensor 49 of the sensor 48 can pass and engage in an opening or bore of the piston.
