Definitions

  • the invention relates to a guide device in a plant for the conversion of materials, in particular a guide device as part of a metal rolling mill, preferably a strip mill.
  • the guide device serves to guide bands of different materials, in particular of metal materials with different materials, temperatures, widths and thicknesses.
  • a method and a device for adjusting such lateral guides for rolled strip transported on a roller table can also be found in DE 4 140 784 A1, whereby in this prior art also the wear of the staffed and against the band pressurized guide rulers recognized as a problem becomes.
  • such guide rulers are set against the strip edges per side or together with a predefined contact pressure force, in order to be applied to either the input side and / or the output side of a rolling stand
  • DE 3 423 560 A1 proposes a positioning control device for guide rails or guide rollers which are arranged in front of the entrance of hot strip mill finishing trains and can be displaced transversely to the rolling direction.
  • DE 4 003 717 A1 discloses a lateral guide for rolled strip conveyed on a roller table, in which the guide rulers are driven by hydraulic cylinders and these hydraulic cylinders can in turn be precisely positioned and adjusted in their force by appropriate controls.
  • the invention relates to guide devices of the type mentioned, as for example in strip rolling mills on the inlet side and / or the outlet side of rolling mills such as Steckel rolling mills, cold rolling Reversiergerüsten or on the input and / or output side of arranged in tandem rolling mills and especially before or behind reels find use.
  • the invention is applicable to the transformation of all conceivable materials, but in particular to metal rolling mills or Kunststoffumform Non.
  • the guide device according to the invention is arranged on the input side or output side of at least one rolling stand of a finishing train, a so-called Finish Rolling Mill, or in front of the coiler.
  • rulers which can be arranged and arranged parallel to one another on both sides of the material are arranged in the guide device, via which the centering and / or alignment of the formed materials takes place in the forming device and in particular between the forming devices such as roll stands.
  • at least one ruler can be pressurized directly via at least one adjusting device.
  • the rulers can be pressurized directly on both longitudinal sides of the material, correspondingly each ruler has its own adjusting device.
  • the at least one adjusting device comprises at least two in series according to the invention switched pressure application devices, which thus cooperate with each other, which in turn can apply two optionally different maximum Anstelldschreibe.
  • switched pressure application devices for example by using a comparatively large and a comparatively small pressure applying device, preferably with the first pressure applying device a base pressure and with the second pressure applying device a fine adjustment of the total pressure of the ruler on the reshaped or reshaped material in addition to the above base pressure.
  • the comparatively small cylinder is fastened to or in a piston rod of the comparatively large cylinder, preferably integrated in this piston rod.
  • a particularly effective and safe series connection of the piston-cylinder arrangement is provided, which also ensures that the pressure applied by the small piston-cylinder unit pressure reliably to the pressure applied by the large piston-cylinder unit added.
  • the comparatively small piston-cylinder unit is able to apply a maximum of 50%, very particularly preferably mechanism, 35% of the maximum pressure of the comparatively large piston-cylinder unit.
  • a coupling of several pressure application devices takes place in a mechanical manner, preferably via at least one rack and pinion arrangement.
  • a secure employment of each ruler parallel to its counterpart within the guide device and optionally completely perpendicular to the longitudinal sides of the material to be formed even when using multiple pressure application devices can be ensured with particularly simple means.
  • the guide device according to the invention is not limited to a certain number of pressure application devices per ruler. Rather, it is preferred if at least one pressure application device with two series-connected piston-cylinder arrangements is connected to only one of the rulers. As a result, the expenditure on equipment for achieving the aim according to the invention is kept to a minimum.
  • the pressure application in this case nevertheless occurs on both longitudinal sides of the material, such as band edges, when the material is pressed by the ruler provided with a pressure application device against the ruler arranged on the opposite longitudinal side of the material to be formed.
  • the rulers are independently adjustable within the guide device according to the invention, as this allows a particularly secure process management on both sides of the material to be formed.
  • a lower pressure application to the comparatively thin band side compared to the pressure application on the comparatively thick band side can avoid band edge damage on both sides while at the same time ensuring secure band guidance.
  • control or control units are connected to at least one actuating device of the guide device according to the invention. If several pressure application devices are present, it is particularly preferred if they can be controlled or regulated independently of each other. As a result, in a particularly preferred manner, a maximum flexibility of the process control in a forming plant with the greatest possible variety of products is made available.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of a first embodiment of a guide device according to the invention
  • Fig. 2 is a schematic plan view of a second embodiment of the guide device according to the invention.
  • Fig. 3 is a schematic plan view of a third embodiment of the guide device according to the invention.
  • a guide device for guiding a strip-shaped material 1 is shown schematically in plan view.
  • rulers 3a and 3b are arranged, which can be set against the band-shaped material 1 via two adjusting devices 4a, 4b and 4c, 4d, which are arranged on the end regions of the rulers 3a, 3b.
  • a controllable and controllable, predetermined pressure can be set to the longitudinal edges of the material 1 to a defined degree.
  • the actuating device 4d is shown in more detail in elevation; However, according to the first embodiment shown here, all adjusting devices 4a to 4d are constructed in the same way.
  • the actuating devices 4a to 4d are shown in the form of a double cylinder with two different large displacement 6a and 6b, wherein in the comparatively large displacement 6a, a piston rod 7a is arranged controllably and controllably displaceable via a hydraulic device (not shown) and comparatively small displacement 6b a comparatively small piston rod 7b also via a (not shown) hydraulic device is arranged controllable and controllable slidably.
  • the large piston rod 7a is fixed to a base 8, whereas the small piston rod 7b is connected to the ruler 3b.
  • the maximum pressure of the double cylinder is predetermined by the large piston-cylinder arrangement 6a, 7a, for example, when the small piston rod 7b is fully driven into the double cylinder into the block, and an adjustment of lower pressures of the adjusting device 4d takes place via the addition of series-connected in series piston-cylinder assemblies 4d, 7b and 4d, 7a then only by the comparatively small piston-cylinder assembly 4d, 7b fine adjustable when the large piston 7a completely in the double cylinder 4d inside Block is driven.
  • Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of a guide device according to the invention, which differs from the first embodiment shown in Fig. 1 only in that between the pairs of Anzustell wornen 4a and 4b, which cooperate with the ruler 3a, and the pair of adjusting devices 4c and 4d which cooperate with the second ruler 3b, respective guide rails 5a, 5b are arranged, the sole vertical displacement of the respective rulers 3a, 3b to allow the respective longitudinal edges of the material 1.
