Definitions
- shims are required, which are placed in a so-called changing carriage.
- the shims serve to compensate for roller wear on the lower rollers, so that the level of the upper edge of the lower work rollers is subject to as little fluctuation as possible.
- the inserts are replaced in the changing carriage. It is usual for the respective inserts to be transported individually from a preparation workshop to the support roll changing pit using the hall crane. Each individual insert is inserted and centered separately in the support roller change carriage. When dismantling, the corresponding steps are carried out in reverse order.
- US 3,782,161 A describes the generic method, which is used when changing rolls in a roll stand.
- a number of plates are provided, which are arranged independently of one another and which are used for the individual parts to be changed.
- the disadvantage is that changing the support rolls takes a correspondingly long time: the individual shims have to be removed and the new shims have to be installed, which requires corresponding crane travel; Only then can the new support roller be inserted.
- each insert is driven and attached individually. Furthermore, every supplement must be in the The changing carriage must be centered. During assembly or disassembly, each insert is fastened using two eyebolts.
- Another problem is that the individual insert plates adhere strongly to one another, as oil creates large adhesion forces between the plates and makes dismantling the individual plates more difficult. There is a risk of accidents in that panels hanging on the crane that are stuck together can become loose and fall down during transport.
- the invention is based on the object of simplifying the logistics when changing the rolls of a roll stand and in particular the support rolls and reducing the changing times. This is intended to improve the economic efficiency of the rolling process.
- the insert changing times should therefore be significantly reduced, which then also leads to a reduction in the backup roll changing times.
- the safety of employees should be improved.
- the solution to this problem by the invention provides for a generic method for providing inserts for support and/or work rolls of a roll stand, which are required when changing rolls, to include the steps: a) assembling at least one insert, preferably from at least three inserts, in a package of inserts, at a first location remote from the rolling stand; b) introducing the package of inserts into a carrier element at the first location; c) transporting the carrier element including the package of inserts from the first location to the location near the rolling stand; d) removing the package of inserts from the carrier element at the location near the rolling stand; e) Using the shims when changing rollers.
- the above-mentioned step d) can include the step: temporarily storing the package of inserts in an intermediate storage element.
- the package of inserts can be placed in a roller changing carriage.
- the first place mentioned is in particular a preparation workshop (which is located at some distance from the rolling stand whose rolls are to be changed).
- the location near the roll stand is preferably a roll changing pit or a location immediately next to it.
- the method is carried out in particular for changing support rolls of the roll stand.
- the device for providing and/or transporting inserts for support and/or work rolls of a roll stand which are required when changing rolls, comprises a support frame which has means for coupling to a crane, and connecting means for positively connecting the inserts assembled into a package of inserts Inserts with the support frame.
- the connecting means are in particular designed as screws or include such. Two screws are particularly preferably arranged, in particular diagonally, on the support frame. Furthermore, centering means can be arranged on the support frame, which are designed to center the package of inserts relative to the support frame.
- these can have recesses, preferably two recesses each, which correspond to the position of the screws.
- the individual shims are secured in this way.
- the device further preferably comprises a base plate which is designed with threaded holes for engaging the screws, the base plate being designed to carry the package of inserts.
- a problem is also that the package of inserts sticks to the floor on which it rests due to adhesion (due to an oil film).
- further training provides that the length of the thread of the screws is greater than the length of the threaded hole in the base plate, preferably 1 mm to 5 mm greater. Then, by tightening the screws, the package of inserts can be pressed away from the surface, thus overcoming adhesion.
- the proposed method or the device described is used in particular to change the insert packages in the support roll changing carriage of rolling mills.
- the method or the device allows a shortening of the changing times of the inserts in the (backing roll) changing carriage and thus generally shortening the changing times of the (backing) rolls.
- the supplements are put together into supplement packages of at least one, preferably at least two or three, and in particular a maximum of five supplements.
- the package is then transported as one part (via an indoor crane). This significantly eliminates the need for crane travel;
- the “delivery time” of the inserts (to the changing carriage or to the changing pit) is significantly shortened.
- the centering means mentioned are provided for centering the package of inserts. A reliable and secure connection between the carrier element and the package of inserts can be achieved using just two screws, which results in corresponding advantages in handling.
- the supplement packages are prepared in particular in the preparation workshop.
- the intermediate storage element (essentially a “dummy carriage”) is equipped with the required insert packages.
- the intermediate storage element preferably has several areas, namely those for used insert packages, each for the drive and operating side, and those for newly adjusted insert packages, also each for the drive and operating side.
- the recordings in the intermediate storage element are designed in such a way that the insert packages are held there and that the lifting tool (carrier element lifted by the indoor crane) can remove them from there.
- the intermediate storage element can be transported to the roll changing pit by crane or using other transport devices.
- the intermediate storage element can also be transported with the newly adjusted insert packages to the rolling mill using a lifting tool, as close as possible to the changing area (i.e. to the (support) roll changing pit).
- the (support) roll is then moved out of the roll stand and removed from the roll changing pit.
- the intermediate storage element including the prepared insert packages is picked up using a lifting tool (crane) and moved to one side (operating side) of the (support) roller change carriage.
- the insert packages are preferably fixed manually using the two screws mentioned.
- the package of inserts can also be fixed to the carrier element using other usual fixings (e.g. using an automatic lock or using a lever).
- the (old) packages of inserts are then lifted from the roller changing carriage with the carrier element and placed on the intermediate storage element. The fixation is released.
- the carrier element is moved over the new (delivered) insert packages on the respective side (drive or operating side), the insert packages are fixed as described above and are now positioned in the exchange pit in the now empty place, released from the carrier element, by loosening the screws.
- Fixing or loosening in the carrier element and also fixing in the roller changing carriage can also be carried out automatically.
- appropriate devices can be provided on the carrier element.
- a gap (approx. 1 to 5 mm) can be created between the insert packages and the support (cover of the load cell) by tightening the screws, which makes it easier to loosen the insert packages (by overcoming the adhesion).
- Fig. 1a shows the enlargement of part of the base plate
- 2 shows a carrier element which is currently holding a package of inserts
- Fig. 2a shows the enlargement of a part of the support element, namely
- Fig. 3a shows the enlargement of a part of the base plate with a screw screwed in
- FIG. 5 shows an intermediate storage element which has several, namely four, receptacles for packages of inserts
- FIG. 6 shows part of a roll stand with roll changing carriage and roll changing pit, the intermediate storage element being arranged next to the roll changing pit,
- Fig. 9 shows the roller changing carriage equipped with two new packages of inserts and two old packages of inserts arranged in the intermediate storage element.
- four inserts 1 can be seen, which are put together to form an insert package 2.
- the inserts 1 are required for changing the support rolls of a rolling stand.
- the inserts 1 are prepared in a preparation workshop (which is located at some distance from the rolling stand and is not shown in the figures) and then transported (by an indoor crane) to the rolling stand, where they are required for changing the rolls.
- the package of inserts 2 rests on a base plate 12, which is (temporarily, so to speak) part of a carrier element 3, which is intended for the transport of the inserts 1.
- the entire package consisting of the inserts 1 and the base plate 12 is mounted in the rolling stand, so that the base plate 12 then remains part of the package 2.
- the base plate 12 has a recess in its lower region, into which an insert part is inserted, which is provided with a threaded hole 13. Screws 8, 9 are screwed into the threaded hole 13, which secure the package of inserts 2 on the carrier element 3.
- the individual inserts 1 have recesses 11 in which the shaft of the screws 8, 9 comes to rest when they are screwed into the base plate 12.
- the two recesses 11 for each insert 1 are provided diagonally, as can be seen from Figure 1.
- the carrier element 3 holds a package of inserts 2 in order to pick it up and transport it.
- the support element 3 consists of a support frame 7, which can be coupled to an indoor crane (which is not shown in the figures).
- Attached to the support frame 7 are several (six in the exemplary embodiment) centering means 10, which are designed as rods extending in the vertical direction and having an insertion bevel 14 in the lower end region, as can be seen in Figure 2a.
- 3 shows how the carrier element 3 has gripped a package of inserts 2 and the latter is firmly (formally) connected to the carrier element.
- the two screws 8 and 9 are guided through corresponding through holes in the upper area of the support frame 7.
- the screws 8, 9 are screwed into the base plate 12 and into the threaded holes 13 provided there (see Figure 1a).
- the insert package 2 is secured relative to the carrier element 3 by the recesses 11 (see FIG. 1).
- Figure 4 you can see again how the carrier element 3 has captured a package of inserts 2 located underneath it. It is then transported (by an indoor crane) to an intermediate storage element 4, which is shown in Figure 5.
- the intermediate storage element 4 has four receptacles 15 for respective insert packages 2.
- Figure 5 shows how two of the receptacles 15 (namely the two middle receptacles) are each equipped with a new insert package 2 ', the carrier element 3 being shown again here , which has just placed a package of inserts 2 'into the receptacle 15 of the intermediate storage element 4.
- the intermediate storage element 4 can first be seen with the fitting of two new insert packages 2' (as shown in Figure 5).
- the intermediate bearing element 4 is located directly next to a roll changing pit 6, on which in turn a roll changing carriage 5 is arranged.
- the roll changing carriage 5 is still provided with two used packs of inserts 2′′ that were removed from the roll stand.
- the gripping of a package of inserts 2, either from the intermediate storage element 4 or from the roller changing carriage 5, is again illustrated in Figure 6a.
- Figure 8 shows how the new package of inserts 2' was placed in the roller changing carriage 5. At this stage, half of the replacement of the old 2" insert packages with new 2' insert packages has taken place for one side of the rolling stand (drive or operating side).
- Figure 9 shows how the two old insert packages 2′′ were placed in the intermediate storage element 4, while the two new insert packages 2′ are placed in the roller changing carriage 5.
- the intermediate storage element 4 can be placed either to the side or behind the roll changing pit 6 using an indoor crane, depending on requirements.
