Definitions
- the invention relates to a bending and Ausbalanciervorraum for axially displaceable work rolls of a rolling mill, in particular a Quarto rolling stand, with guide blocks in the height range of the work roll chocks are provided on both sides in the window of each roll stand and the force of bending and Balancierzylindern out in the axial direction and vertically displaceable Work roll chocks are transferred.
- Such rolling mills can be present in hot and cold rolling mills, Steckel mills and plate rolling mills.
- Bending and balancing devices of the above type are known, for example, from EP 0 256 408 A2.
- the object of the invention is to provide a bending and balancing device which ensures a much larger work roll emergence while maintaining constant, maximum guidance of the work roll chocks.
- a bending and balancing device for axially displaceable work rolls of a roll stand, in particular a quarto roll stand, wherein on both sides in the window of each roll stand guide blocks in the height range of the work roll chocks are provided and the force of bending and Balancierzylindern on the axially and vertically displaceably guided work roll chocks is transferable, characterized in that the guide blocks are each block in an upper and a lower guide block in that the upper guide blocks are mounted so as to be vertically displaceable in the window of the roll stand, that the lower guide blocks are mounted fixedly or likewise vertically displaceably in the window of the roll stand, and that in each of the associated upper and lower guide blocks a bending and balancing cylinder guided by them is arranged which engages the upper and lower work roll installation pieces.
- the power transmission takes place from the bending and Balancierzylindern on the work roll chocks via pressure applied to this lid.
- the pressure covers clasp the work roll installation back-up ears in a form-fitting manner or the guide blocks clamp the work roll installation backstops.
- the flying negative and / or positive bending device including balancing function for stationary and axially displaceable work rolls is thus particularly suitable for high rises.
- the previous one-piece stationary guide block is divided into an upper movable guide block and a lower stationary or movable guide block.
- a bending and Balancierzylinder which acts simultaneously on the upper and lower work roll and is guided in the respective other guide block.
- the axial displacement shifter may be mounted, including the work roll latches.
- the upper movable guide block or both movable guide blocks are guided in the roll stand.
- a negative bending of the work rolls can be realized in that the pressure cover the work roll construction tail pipes or the guide blocks clasp the work roll mounting lugs form fit.
- the invention combines the high reliability of the present flexure and balancer design with greater flexibility in terms of nip enlargement.
- Another advantage is that according to the invention with a minimum number of bending and balancing cylinder for positive and negative bending gets by the simultaneous effect on the lower and upper work roll.
- the invention allows a larger range of work roll deflection (positive and negative) that is suitable for particular process requirements, e.g. The Ste- ckellui - large rolling force fluctuations within a band / stitch - required or desirable.
- Fig. 1 is a vertical section through the bending and Ausbalanciervorraum
- Fig. 3 is a vertical section similar to Figure 1 in a modified embodiment
- Fig. 4 is a further embodiment
- the work roll chocks 3 and 3 'for the upper and lower work rolls 10 and 10' are indicated.
- the guide block divided according to the invention is fastened to the window, the upper guide block 2 being movable and the lower guide block 2 'likewise being movable or stationary.
- a negative or positive setting of the work roll chocks is achieved with the embodiment shown in FIG.
- the guide block 2 clasps the approach of the work roll chock 3 or pressure cover extensions 7 clasp the ears of the work roll chocks 3 and 3 ', so that the movement of the bending and Balancierzylinder is directly transferable in both directions.
