Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、熱間圧延した後の熱延鋼帯、特にそのテール部のランナウトテーブル上における通板方法に関する。ここでランナウトテーブルとは、仕上圧延機の後方に設けられた熱延鋼帯の搬送装置であり、適当な間隔で配置された複数の搬送テーブルローラーからなる。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般に、熱間圧延機により圧延した長尺の熱延鋼帯はランナウトテーブル上で注水などにより所定の温度まで冷却された後、コイラーに巻取られて熱延コイルとされる。
【0003】
このとき熱延鋼帯は、トップ部がコイラーに巻取られてからテール部が仕上圧延機を抜出るまでは、コイラーと圧延機に支持されて張力が付加された状態にあるため安定してランナウトテーブル上を走行できるが、トップ部がコイラーに巻取られる前やテール部が仕上圧延機の最終段を抜出た後は張力フリーの状態になるため、その走行が不安定になる。
【0004】
図8に、熱延鋼帯テール部1が仕上圧延機10の最終段を抜出た後の不安定走行の一例を示す。
【0005】
仕上圧延機10の最終段を抜出た熱延鋼帯テール部1は、慣性力が働きランナウトテーブル上を波2を打ちながら走行するが、特に板厚が2.5mm以下の高速圧延される薄い鋼帯の場合には、波2が昂じてループ3が形成されるようなことも起る。鋼帯が波2の生じた状態で冷却されると冷却ムラが生じて絞りが発生したり、またループ3が形成されると巻取り時に折込みが発生したりして、製品の歩留まりが低下する。
【0006】
そのため従来より、トップ部には注水しないとか、テール部1の圧延速度を遅くするなどの対策が取られてきたが、板厚の薄い鋼帯に対しては十分な効果が得られなかった。特に温度低下の大きなテール部1では、圧延速度を遅くすると圧延温度を確保できなくなり、圧延中の通板不良や製品の特性劣化や製品の板厚、板幅、巻き形状の寸法誤差を招くという問題が生じていた。
【0007】
特開平4−84617号公報や特開平7−323321号公報には、ランナウトテーブル上における冷却方法や通板方法に工夫を凝らし、鋼帯の走行を安定させるための方法が開示されている。また特開平11−267732号公報には、ランナウトテーブル上方より熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に高圧水を噴射する熱延鋼帯テール部1の通板方法が開示されている。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、特開平4−84617号公報や特開平7−323321号公報に記載された方法では、熱延鋼帯のトップ部の走行に対しては有効であるが、圧延機10から高速で抜出るテール部1の走行を安定させることは難しかった。
【0009】
一方、特開平11−267732号公報に記載された発明によれば、仕上圧延機10を抜出た後の熱延鋼帯テール部1をランナウトテーブル上で通板させるに際し、ランナウトテーブル上方より熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に高圧水を噴射することにより、鋼帯テール部1が波打ってランナウトテーブルから突出した波頭はループ3を形成する前に高圧水により押さえ込まれる。つまり、熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向すなわち鋼帯が圧延機10から抜出て拘束から開放されている板端部方向へ高圧水を噴射することにより、波2を開放端から押出すことができるので、鋼帯テール部1を平坦化でき、その走行を安定させて絞りや折込みの発生が低減できる。しかし、本発明者が実験などに基づき検討したところによれば、上記方法ではループ3の発生はそれなりに抑制できるものの、場所によって鋼帯に絞りを発生させてしまうという問題があることがわかった。
【0010】
本発明はこのような問題を解決するためになされたもので、ランナウトテーブル上での走行を安定させ、絞りや折込みの発生を低減できる熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法を提供することを目的とする。
【0011】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者等は、ランナウトテーブル上での走行を安定させ、絞りや折込みの発生を低減できる熱延鋼帯テール部1の通板方法について検討した結果、ランナウトテーブル上方より熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射するに際し、その高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が仕上圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるように前記高圧水を噴射することが有効であることを見出した。また、これを実現するためには高圧水の噴射圧を圧延機10から離れるほど強くし、あるいは高圧水の噴射幅を圧延機10から離れるほど広くすればよく、それにより鋼帯の局部変形を防止でき、鋼帯を搬送テーブルローラー上に押付けて、その押付けた位置をあたかもピンチローラーで挟み込んだように搬送テーブルローラー上に固定して、コイラーとの間に張力を付加することができ、これらの結果、熱延鋼帯テール部の走行安定性を確保できることが判った。
【0012】
本発明は以上のような知見に基づきなされたもので、以下のような特徴を有する。
【0013】
(1)圧延機を抜出た後の熱延鋼帯テール部をランナウトテーブル上で通板させるに際し、前記ランナウトテーブル上方より前記熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射し、且つ該高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が圧延機から離れるほど強くなるように前記高圧水を噴射することを特徴とする熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法。
【0014】
(2)高圧水の鋼帯押付け力を該高圧水の噴射圧又は噴射幅で調整することを特徴とする上記(1)に記載の熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法。
【0015】
(3)圧延機を抜出た後の高圧水の最初の噴射先を熱延鋼帯の幅方向中心部とするとともに、下流側ほど高圧水の噴射先の幅が熱延鋼帯の幅方向中心部から両端部に向かって広がっていくように、高圧水の噴射幅を調整することを特徴とする上記(1)に記載の熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法。
【0016】
(4)高圧水の噴射圧を20kgf/cm2以上とし、搬送テーブルローラーの真上を目指して噴射することを特徴とする上記(1)乃至(3)のいずれかに記載の熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法。
【0017】
更に特徴を加えるならば、以下のようになる。
【0018】
(5)高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が圧延機から離れるほど強くなるように高圧水を噴射するのに際し、熱延鋼帯の進行方向に複数の高圧水噴射用ヘッダーを設置して、熱延鋼帯の進行方向の複数箇所に前記高圧水を噴射することを特徴とする上記(1)に記載の熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法。
【0019】
(6)高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が圧延機から離れるほど強くなるように高圧水を噴射するのに際し、熱延鋼帯の進行方向に1個の高圧水噴射用ヘッダーを設置して、該高圧水噴射用ヘッダーに設けられる高圧水噴射用ノズル群の高圧水噴射の迎え角を複数設定して、熱延鋼帯の進行方向の複数箇所に前記高圧水を噴射することを特徴とする上記(1)に記載の熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法。
【0020】
【発明の実施の形態】
図1および図2は本発明の実施に供されるランナウトテーブルおよび高圧水噴射設備とこの設備を用いた本発明法の一実施形態を示すもので、図1は設備全体の側面図、図2(a)はランナウトテーブル上の高圧水噴射設備の平面図、図2(b)は高圧水噴射設備の高圧水噴射用ノズル群を構成する高圧水噴射用ノズルの平面図である。
【0021】
以下の説明では、高圧水噴射方向中心が鋼帯面に対してなす傾斜角を迎え角(α)(図1参照)同じく高圧水噴射方向中心が鋼帯の進行方向に対してなす角度を振れ角(β)(図5参照)と定義する。
【0022】
本実施形態の高圧水噴射設備の構成は、仕上圧延機10の最終段出側から例えば50m程度の範囲のランナウトテーブルの上方に設置された3つの高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4、6、8と、これら高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4、6、8に設けられる高圧水噴射用ノズル群5、7、9とからなり、各高圧水ノズル群5、7、9は幅方向に等間隔で配置される11個の高圧水噴射用ノズル50〜60、70〜80、90〜100からなる。
【0023】
上記設備を使用して本発明法を実施する場合には、図2(a)に示すように1番目(#1)〜3番目(#3)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5、7、9から熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射するとともに、この高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるようにする。このため本実施形態では、各高圧水噴射用ノズル群5、7、9による高圧水の噴射パターンを同じにし、高圧水の噴射圧を、[高圧水噴射用ノズル群5による噴射圧]<[高圧水噴射用ノズル群7による噴射圧]<[高圧水噴射用ノズル群9による噴射圧]とすることにより、鋼帯押付け力が圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるようにしている。
【0024】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群5のノズル50〜60は、一つおきに計5個のノズルを作動させ、その迎え角を高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー5の位置より3つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。高圧水の噴射先が搬送テーブルローラー11の真上であることにより、鋼帯を十分に搬送テーブルローラー11上に押付けることが可能となる。
【0025】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群7のノズル70〜80および前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群9のノズル90〜100は、前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群5のノズル50〜60と同様に作動させる。
【0026】
そして、#3高圧水噴射用ノズル群9から噴射する高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が最大なので、該高圧水の噴射先位置とコイラーとの間に最大の張力が発生することになり、この張力は#1高圧水噴射用ノズル群5から噴射する高圧水の噴射先位置に向かって、高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が弱くなるのに従って徐々に開放される。この結果、#3高圧水の噴射先位置より上流側の鋼帯の局部変形を防止できる。
【0027】
図2(a)に示すように複数箇所の高圧水噴射用ヘッダーから高圧水を噴射するのではなくて、熱延鋼帯の進行方向に1個の高圧水噴射用ヘッダーを設置して、該高圧水噴射用ヘッダーに設けられる高圧水噴射用ノズル群の高圧水噴射の迎え角を複数設定して、熱延鋼帯の進行方向の複数箇所に前記高圧水を噴射してもよい。
【0028】
例えば、1番目(#1)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5のノズルの迎え角を複数設定して、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー5の位置より、いくつかのノズルでは3つ上流側、またいくつかのノズルでは2つ上流側、またいくつかのノズルでは1つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定して、熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射するとともに、この高圧水の噴射圧が圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるようにしてもよい。
【0029】
各高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4、6、8に設けられる高圧水噴射用ノズル群5、7、9よりの噴射圧は特に限定されないが、好ましくは噴射圧20kgf/cm以上160kgf/cm以下の範囲が適当である。
【0030】
噴射圧として20kgf/cm以上160kgf/cm以下の範囲が好ましいのは、噴射圧が20kgf/cm未満では鋼帯押付け力が不足し、一方噴射圧が160kgf/cmを超えると搬送テーブルローラー11の侵食と熱延鋼帯表層のスケ−ル剥離による鋼帯の光沢不良を起こす恐れがあるからである。
【0031】
図3は本発明法の他の実施形態を示すもので、ランナウトテーブル上の高圧水噴射設備の平面図である。
【0032】
この実施形態で使用する高圧水噴射設備の構成は、第1の実施形態と同様である。
【0033】
この図3の実施形態では1番目(#1)〜3番目(#3)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5、7、9から熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射するとともに、この高圧水の鋼帯押付け力が圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるようにする。このため本実施形態では、高圧水の噴射幅を、[高圧水噴射用ノズル群5による噴射幅]<[高圧水噴射用ノズル群7による噴射幅]<[高圧水噴射用ノズル群9による噴射幅]とすることにより、鋼帯押付け力が圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるようにしている。
【0034】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群5のノズル50〜60は、ノズル幅方向中央の1個のノズルのみ作動させ、その迎え角を高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より3つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。
【0035】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群7のノズル70〜80は、ノズル幅方向中央の一つおきに計3個のノズルのみ作動させ、その迎え角を高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー6の位置より3つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。
【0036】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群9のノズル90〜100は、一つおきに計5個のノズルを作動させ、その迎え角を高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー8の位置より3つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。
【0037】
本実施形態の高圧水噴射設備の動作および作用は、第1の実施形態と同様である。ただし、高圧水の鋼帯押付け力を圧延機10から離れるほど強くなるようにするために、各高圧水噴射用ノズル群からの高圧水噴射幅が圧延機10から離れるほど広くなるようにしている。
【0038】
高圧水の噴射幅を圧延機10から離れるほど鋼帯幅方向中心より序々に広くするには、仕上圧延機10を抜出て最初の高圧水の噴射先は鋼帯幅方向中心である必要がある。仕上圧延機10を抜出て最初の高圧水の噴射先が鋼帯の幅端部であると、高圧水の鋼帯押付け力により、その押付けた方向に鋼帯が蛇行を開始する恐れがあるからである。
【0039】
図4は本発明法の他の実施形態を示すもので、ランナウトテーブル上の高圧水噴射設備の平面図である。
【0040】
この実施形態で使用する高圧水噴射設備の構成は、第1の実施形態と同様である。
【0041】
この図4の実施形態では1番目(#1)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5から熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射するとともに、この高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4から遠い搬送テーブルローラーほど高圧水の噴射幅を狭く、近くのテーブルローラーほど高圧水の噴射幅を広くなるようにする。2番目(#2)および3番目(#3)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群7、9は、1番目(#1)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5と同じでもよいし、従来通りの鋼帯幅方向均一の噴射パターンでもよい。
【0042】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群5のノズル50〜60は、ノズル幅方向中央の3個のノズルの迎え角を、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より3つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。次に、ノズル幅方向中央以外の両側2個づつ計4個のノズルの迎え角を、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より2つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。次に、ノズル幅方向の上記以外の両端部の両側2個づつ計4個のノズルの迎え角を、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より1つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。
【0043】
本実施形態の高圧水噴射設備の動作および作用は、1番目(#1)のみの高圧水噴射用ノズル群5からの高圧水噴射幅が圧延機10から離れるほど広くなるようにしている。
【0044】
図5は本発明法の他の実施形態を示すもので、ランナウトテーブル上の高圧水噴射設備の平面図である。
【0045】
この実施形態で使用する高圧水噴射設備の構成は、第1の実施形態と同様である。
【0046】
この図5の実施形態では1番目(#1)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5から熱延鋼帯の進行方向とは逆方向に向けて鋼帯面に斜めに高圧水を噴射するとともに、この高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4から遠い搬送テーブルローラーほど高圧水の噴射幅を狭く、近くのテーブルローラーほど高圧水の噴射幅を広くなるようにする。2番目(#2)および3番目(#3)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群7、9は、1番目(#1)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5と同じでもよいし、従来通りの鋼帯幅方向均一の噴射パターンでもよい。
【0047】
前記高圧水噴射用ノズル群5のノズル50〜60は、ノズル幅方向に噴射方向に圧延機10に向かって片端の3個のノズルの迎え角を、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より3つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。次に、ノズル幅方向に噴射方向に圧延機10に向かって他端の3個のノズルの迎え角を、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より2つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。次にノズル幅方向中央5個のノズルの迎え角を、高圧水の噴射先が高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4の位置より1つ上流側の搬送テーブルローラー11の真上を目指すように設定した。
【0048】
本実施形態の高圧水噴射設備の動作および作用は、図4に示す第3の実施形態と同様に、1番目(#1)のみの高圧水噴射用ノズル群5からの高圧水噴射幅が、両側の計6個のノズルの振れ角を鋼帯幅方向の中心に向かうように設定することにより、圧延機10に近いほど狭く、圧延機10から離れるほど広くなるようにしている。
【0049】
【実施例】
実際に、鋼帯の熱延ラインのランナウトテーブル上に、図6に示す高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4、6、8と、これら高圧水噴射用ヘッダー4、6、8に設けられる高圧水噴射用ノズル群5、7、9があり、各高圧水ノズル群5、7、9は幅方向に等間隔で11個の高圧水噴射用ノズル50〜60、70〜80、90〜100から構成される設備を配置して熱延鋼帯の通板を実施した。
【0050】
ここで、図6の1番目(#1)の高圧水噴射用ノズル群5は図4に示したものと同一である。
【0051】
板厚1.2〜1.6mm、幅650〜1,500mmの低炭素鋼の熱延鋼帯テール部に対して本発明法を適用した結果、図7に示すように絞り発生率については95%から89%に低下し、また絞り発生長さについては最小30mから15mまで縮小することができた。
【0052】
【発明の効果】
本発明は以上説明したように構成されているので、走行を安定させ絞りや折込みの発生を低減できる熱延鋼帯テール部の通板方法を提供できる。
【0053】
また、本発明法を用いれば、圧延速度を低下させる必要がないので圧延中の通板不良や製品の特性劣化を招くことはない。特に、板厚が2.5mm以下の薄い鋼帯の場合においてより効果的である。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a hot-rolled steel strip after hot rolling, and more particularly to a method of passing a tail portion of the hot-rolled steel strip on a run-out table. Here, the run-out table is a conveying device for the hot-rolled steel strip provided at the rear of the finishing mill, and includes a plurality of conveying table rollers arranged at appropriate intervals.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In general, a long hot-rolled steel strip rolled by a hot rolling mill is cooled to a predetermined temperature on a run-out table by water injection or the like, and then wound around a coiler to form a hot-rolled coil.
[0003]
At this time, the hot-rolled steel strip is stably supported by the coiler and the rolling mill until the tail portion is pulled out of the finishing mill after the top portion is wound on the coiler, so that the tension is applied. Although the vehicle can travel on the run-out table, the traveling becomes unstable because the top portion is in a tension-free state before being wound on the coiler or after the tail portion is pulled out of the final stage of the finishing mill.
[0004]
FIG. 8 shows an example of unstable running after the hot-rolled steel strip tail portion 1 has pulled out from the final stage of the finishing mill 10.
[0005]
The hot-rolled steel strip tail portion 1 from the final stage of the finishing mill 10 is driven by inertia force and runs on the run-out table while hitting a wave 2, and is particularly high-speed rolled with a plate thickness of 2.5 mm or less. In the case of a thin steel strip, it may happen that the wave 2 is increased and the loop 3 is formed. When the steel strip is cooled in the state where the wave 2 is generated, cooling unevenness occurs and a narrowing occurs, and when the loop 3 is formed, a fold occurs at the time of winding and a product yield is reduced. .
[0006]
For this reason, conventionally, measures such as not injecting water into the top portion or reducing the rolling speed of the tail portion 1 have been taken, but a sufficient effect has not been obtained for a steel strip having a small thickness. In particular, in the tail portion 1 where the temperature drop is large, if the rolling speed is reduced, it becomes impossible to secure the rolling temperature, leading to poor threading during rolling, deterioration in product characteristics, and dimensional errors in the product thickness, width, and winding shape. There was a problem.
[0007]
JP-A-4-84617 and JP-A-7-323321 disclose a method for stabilizing the running of a steel strip by devising a cooling method and a threading method on a run-out table. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-267732 discloses a method for passing a hot-rolled steel strip tail portion 1 in which high-pressure water is injected from above a run-out table in a direction opposite to a traveling direction of the hot-rolled steel strip.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the method described in JP-A-4-84617 or JP-A-7-323321 is effective for running on the top portion of the hot-rolled steel strip, but withdraws from the rolling mill 10 at high speed. It was difficult to stabilize the running of the tail part 1.
[0009]
On the other hand, according to the invention described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-267732, when the hot-rolled steel strip tail portion 1 after the finishing mill 10 is passed through the run-out table, heat is applied from above the run-out table. By injecting high-pressure water in the direction opposite to the traveling direction of the steel strip, the crest of the steel strip tail 1 waving and projecting from the run-out table is held down by the high-pressure water before forming the loop 3. That is, by injecting high-pressure water in the direction opposite to the traveling direction of the hot-rolled steel strip, that is, in the direction of the plate end where the steel strip is pulled out of the rolling mill 10 and released from the restraint, the wave 2 is pushed from the open end. Since the steel strip tail portion 1 can be protruded, the steel strip tail portion 1 can be flattened, its running can be stabilized, and the occurrence of squeezing and folding can be reduced. However, according to the present inventor's studies based on experiments and the like, it has been found that although the above method can suppress the occurrence of the loop 3 to some extent, there is a problem that the steel strip may be restricted in some places. .
[0010]
The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a hot-rolled steel strip tail passing method capable of stabilizing traveling on a run-out table and reducing the occurrence of drawing and folding. Aim.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present inventors have studied a threading method of the hot-rolled steel strip tail portion 1 that can stabilize traveling on the run-out table and reduce the occurrence of drawing and folding, and as a result, the progress of the hot-rolled steel strip from above the run-out table When injecting high-pressure water obliquely to the steel strip surface in the direction opposite to the direction, it is effective to inject the high-pressure water so that the steel strip pressing force of the high-pressure water increases as the distance from the finishing mill 10 increases. Was found. In order to realize this, the injection pressure of the high-pressure water may be increased as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases, or the injection width of the high-pressure water may be increased as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases, thereby reducing local deformation of the steel strip.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show an embodiment of a run-out table and a high-pressure water injection facility used for carrying out the present invention, and a method of the present invention using the facility. FIG. 1 is a side view of the entire facility. 2A is a plan view of a high-pressure water injection facility on a run-out table, and FIG. 2B is a plan view of a high-pressure water injection nozzle constituting a high-pressure water injection nozzle group of the high-pressure water injection facility.
[0021]
In the following description, the angle of inclination formed by the center of the high-pressure water injection direction with respect to the steel strip surface is the angle of attack (α) (see FIG. 1). Angle (β) (see FIG. 5).
[0022]
The configuration of the high-pressure water injection equipment of the present embodiment includes three high-pressure water injection headers 4, 6, and 8 installed above a run-out table in a range of, for example, about 50 m from the final step-out side of the finishing mill 10. The high-pressure water injection headers 4, 6, and 8 comprise high-pressure water injection nozzle groups 5, 7, and 9, which are arranged at equal intervals in the width direction. It is composed of a plurality of high-pressure water injection nozzles 50 to 60, 70 to 80, and 90 to 100.
[0023]
When the method of the present invention is carried out using the above equipment, the first (# 1) to third (# 3) high pressure water injection nozzle groups 5, 7, 9 as shown in FIG. , High-pressure water is injected obliquely to the steel strip surface in the direction opposite to the direction of travel of the hot-rolled steel strip, and the pressing force of the high-pressure water to the steel strip is increased as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the injection pattern of the high-pressure water by the high-pressure water injection nozzle groups 5, 7, and 9 is made the same, and the injection pressure of the high-pressure water is set to [the injection pressure by the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5] <[ By setting the injection pressure by the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 7 <the injection pressure by the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 9, the steel strip pressing force is increased as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases.
[0024]
The nozzles 50 to 60 of the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5 operate a total of five nozzles every other nozzle, and the angle of attack is set such that the injection destination of the high-pressure water is three upstream from the position of the high-pressure water injection header 5. It was set so as to aim directly above the transfer table roller 11 on the side. Since the high pressure water is sprayed directly above the transfer table roller 11, the steel strip can be sufficiently pressed onto the transfer table roller 11.
[0025]
The nozzles 70 to 80 of the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 7 and the nozzles 90 to 100 of the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 9 are operated in the same manner as the nozzles 50 to 60 of the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5.
[0026]
Since the steel band pressing force of the high-pressure water injected from the # 3 high-pressure water injection nozzle group 9 is the maximum, the maximum tension is generated between the high-pressure water injection destination position and the coiler. Is gradually opened toward the injection position of the high-pressure water injected from the # 1 high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5 as the steel strip pressing force of the high-pressure water decreases. As a result, local deformation of the steel strip on the upstream side of the injection position of the # 3 high-pressure water can be prevented.
[0027]
Instead of injecting high-pressure water from a plurality of high-pressure water injection headers as shown in FIG. 2 (a), one high-pressure water injection header is installed in the traveling direction of the hot-rolled steel strip. A plurality of angles of attack of high-pressure water injection of a group of high-pressure water injection nozzles provided on the high-pressure water injection header may be set, and the high-pressure water may be injected at a plurality of locations in the traveling direction of the hot-rolled steel strip.
[0028]
For example, by setting a plurality of angles of attack of the nozzles of the first (# 1) high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5, the number of high-pressure water injection destinations is three in some nozzles from the position of the high-pressure water injection header 5. The upstream side, some nozzles, two upstream sides, and some nozzles, one upstream side, are set so as to aim just above the transfer table roller 11, and are opposite to the traveling direction of the hot-rolled steel strip. High-pressure water may be injected obliquely to the steel strip surface in the direction, and the injection pressure of the high-pressure water may be increased as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases.
[0029]
Injection pressure than the high pressure water injection nozzle group 5, 7, 9 provided in each high-pressure water jet for the header 4, 6 and 8 is not particularly limited, preferably injection pressure 20 kgf / cm 2 or more 160 kgf / cm 2 or less of The range is appropriate.
[0030]
As the 20 kgf / cm 2 or more 160 kgf / cm 2 is preferably in a range of about the injection pressure, conveying the injection pressure is insufficient strip pressing force is less than 20 kgf / cm 2, whereas the injection pressure exceeds 160 kgf / cm 2 Table This is because there is a possibility that the gloss of the steel strip may be deteriorated due to the erosion of the roller 11 and the peeling of the scale of the surface layer of the hot-rolled steel strip.
[0031]
FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the method of the present invention, and is a plan view of high-pressure water injection equipment on a run-out table.

High-pressure water is injected diagonally, and the pressing force of the high-pressure water is increased as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the injection width of the high-pressure water is set to [the injection width by the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5] <[the injection width by the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 7] <[the injection width by the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 9] Width], the steel strip pressing force increases as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases.
[0034]
The nozzles 50 to 60 of the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 5 operate only one nozzle at the center in the nozzle width direction, and the angle of attack is set such that the destination of high-pressure water injection is three upstream from the position of the high-pressure water injection header 4. It was set so as to aim directly above the transfer table roller 11 on the side.
[0035]
The nozzles 70 to 80 of the high-pressure water injection nozzle group 7 operate only three nozzles in total at every other center in the nozzle width direction. It was set so as to aim just above the transport table roller 11 three upstream from the position.

It was set so as to aim directly above the transfer table roller 11 on the side.
[0037]
The operation and operation of the high-pressure water injection equipment of the present embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment. However, in order to increase the pressing force of the steel strip with high-pressure water as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases, the width of the high-pressure water injection from each high-pressure water injection nozzle group increases as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases. .
[0038]
In order to gradually increase the injection width of the high-pressure water from the center in the width direction of the steel strip as the distance from the rolling mill 10 increases, it is necessary that the finishing high-pressure water is extracted from the finish rolling mill 10 and the first injection destination of the high-pressure water is the center in the width direction of the steel strip. is there. If the first high pressure water is ejected from the finishing mill 10 at the width end of the steel strip, the steel strip may start to meander in the pressed direction due to the steel strip pressing force.
