And is integrally attached to a rotating member 21a which is rotatably fitted to the outside. Also, on the upper side of the block 18,
In particular, as apparent from FIG. 3, an oil flow guide surface 18 a having a downward slope is formed toward the string-shaped body holding groove 19.

As shown in FIG. 2, the string 13 is inserted into the string holding groove 19 of the block 18 from the winding drum 17 via the guide rollers 25a and 25b. The distal end side of the body 13 is introduced into the string moving means 16. The cord 1 inserted into the cord holding groove 19
3 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 1 for firing by the urging force of the spring 23, and is brought into the state shown in FIGS. In this case, since the string-like body holding groove 19 of the block 18 is formed in a substantially V-shaped cross section, the contact friction resistance between the string-like body 13 inserted and held therein and the inner wall surface of the holding groove 19 is reduced. As a result, the movement of the string 13 can be facilitated, and the string 13 can be held in a state where the string 13 protrudes from the holding groove 19 to the outer peripheral surface side of the rotating body 1 for firing.
The urging force of No. 3 can be effectively applied to the string-shaped body 13 to reliably press the string-shaped body 13 against the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 1 for firing.

The spacing between the string-shaped body holding groove 19 side of the block 18 and the outer peripheral surface of the firing rotary member 1 is relatively narrow in the state shown in FIG. 3, but the set bolt 31 is removed from the state shown in FIG. When the eccentric ring 29 is rotated around the fixed shaft 28 via the bolt 31 and the outer peripheral surface of the support roller 30 having a long radius from the fixed shaft 28 contacts the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 1 for firing. Therefore, the opposing interval is widened, and therefore, the pressing force of the cord 13 against the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 1 for firing is weakened. As shown in the drawing, when the radius of the outer peripheral surface of the supporting roller 30 in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the sintering rotary body 1 decreases from the fixed shaft 28, the above-described facing distance becomes narrower and the outer peripheral surface of the sintering rotary body 1 becomes smaller. The pressing force of the string-like body 13 increases. By adjusting the pressing force of the cord 13 against the outer peripheral surface of the sintering rotary body 1 by the pressing force adjusting mechanism 26 in this manner, the amount of oil O applied to the outer peripheral surface of the sintering rotary body 1 can be easily adjusted. Can be.

Thus, the oil stored in the oil tank 36 is pressurized to a predetermined pressure by the pump 35 and is sent from the oil feed pipe 34 to the oil feed pipe 33, and the oil in the oil feed pipe 33 is sent from each oil feed nozzle 32 to the oil feed pipe 32. The oil is discharged onto the oil flow guide surface 18a of the block 18 and flows down along the oil flow guide surface 18a.
It is configured to be uniformly supplied to the string-like body 13 in the string-like body holding groove 19.

As shown in FIG. 2, the string-like body moving means 16 is inserted into the string-like body holding groove 19 of the block 18 and pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 1 for firing. , Ie, a pair of rollers 37 and 38 sandwiching the leading end, one of which is a driving roller, the other is a pressing roller, and the driving roller 37 is a motor with a speed reducer. By 39, low-speed rotation is driven in the direction of the arrow in the figure. The holding roller 38 is supported by one end of a bell crank 41 pivotally attached to a bracket 40 attached to the fixed frame 24, and a tension spring 42 is interposed between the other end of the bell crank 41 and the bracket 40. The pressing roller 38 is biased toward the side facing the driving roller 37. According to the string moving means 16, the string 13 can be reliably moved at a low speed with a simple structure.
