  • ABSTRACT [52] 11.8. CI. ..72/11, 72/16, 324/34 TK;
  • Strip metal in f example a 33/ M3 L rolling mill apparatus is provided ahead of the press to derive 1 Int. a ignal in de endence on the thickness and hardness of [he 0 Search ..72/18, 8, 9, 12, 16, l trip this being used to control the rolling
  • the ap- 4 143 L paratus comprises two measuring heads which bear on the two sides of the strip with pressures sufiicient to deform the [56] References Cited material of the strip.
  • Such apparatus may, for example, comprise two sensing rollers between which the moving strip is passed, the rollers being kept in constant contact with the top and bottom of the strip. Fluctuations in the thickness of the material passing through then result in corresponding fluctuations in the spacing between the rollers. These spacing fluctuations may be converted into control pulses, for example by electromagnetic means, by using light rays and photo-electric cells, or by using 'y-rays and the like; the control pulses then act through appropriate control members, for example, to adjust the relative positions of the work rolls in a rolling mill in which the strip material is undergoing a rolling process.
  • the control applied to the machine no longer corresponds exactly to the required correction of the process. But even if the measuring means precedes the processing machine so that the control pulses are derived before processing takes place, the control process initiated by the pulses nevertheless takes place, the control process initiated by the pulses nevertheless take place too late, particularly if a number of cumbersomely operating machine parts have to be moved in order to put the control into effect.
  • Another drawback of known measuring and control apparatus is that it only enables the thickness of the material passing through to be measured and not the hardness thereof. This defect is felt particularly if the measuring and control apparatus has to be operated in conjunction with a rolling mill, for if the material is to be rolled to a uniform thickness, the roll pressure must be regulated in dependence on both the thickness and the hardness of the material to be rolled. Previous measuring apparatus has consequently proved a failure in connection with the control of rolling mills.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide a measuring and control apparatus which will respond both to fluctuations in thickness and fluctuations in hardness of a strip material. Another object is to provide such apparatus for controlling a rolling mill, in dependence on both the thickness and the hardness of the material being processed.
  • the subject matter of the invention is accordingly a measuring and control apparatus, the measuring pulses of which actuate a control member, located in a processing machine behind it for material passing through to be processed, to control the operation of the said machine.
  • the apparatus according to the invention is characterized by two opposed measuring heads engaging the top and bottom of the material passing through to be processed, the heads being movable substantially perpendicularly to the direction in which the material is advanced and pressing against the material with a constant pressure sufficient to deform the latter.
  • FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings illustrates, by way of example, a preferred embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention, combined in this special case with a rolling mill for strips of metal,
  • FIG. 2 of the accompanying drawings illustrates, also by way of example, a further embodiment.
  • FIG. 3 of the accompanying drawings illustrates a perspective view of a measuring head roller according to the invention.
  • FIG. 4 of the accompanying drawings illustrates schemati- Y DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
  • the metal strip 1 to be rolled approaches the measuring apparatus C from the left, moves between the two measuring heads 2 and 2a in the direction of the arrow and then passes through the rolling mill R which follows.
  • the measuring heads 2, 2a are connected to bars 3 and 3a, the outer ends of which carry pistons 5 and 5a movable within hydraulic cylinders 4 and 4a.
  • the hydraulic pressure in the cylinders 4, 4a, exerted on the metal strip 1 by way of the bars 3, 3a and influence 2, 2a is adjustable and has to be kept constant during the measuring and control process.
  • the pressure exerted on the metal strip 1 need not be generated by hydraulic means and may be produced in any other suitable way.
  • the essential factor is that the pressure should be large enough to deform the metal strip 1. If this requirement is met, the distance between the two measuring heads 2, 20 will vary according to the fluctuations in the thickness and hardness of the metal strip 1 passing through.
  • the pressure is preferably adjusted in such a way that the metal strip 1 is deformed within its elastic range. It will be apparent that changes in thickness and hardness characteristics of the strip 1 influence the ability of the strip to impart a reactive force, i.e., counterpressure, against compressing agents, such as the measuring heads 6, 6a and the mill rolls 18. Since the heads 6, 6a are urged in the previously described manner to deform the strip, they will be movable in responsive to a change in such counterpressure.
  • a reactive force i.e., counterpressure
  • the measuring heads 2, 2a may be in any desired form, although it is preferable for them to comprise rollers 6, 6a to engage the metal strip 1. It is an advantage for the rollers 6, 6a to have a cambered surface, that is to have a somewhat larger diameter in the center than at the edges as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the movements of the measuring heads 2, 2a resulting from the fluctuations in the thickness and hardness of the metal strip 1 are transmitted to the bars 3, 3a.
  • the bars 3, 3a are made of magnetic material and surrounded by induction coils 7, 7a, in which the movement of the bars 3, 3a induces a current, the fluctuations of which correspond to the fluctuations in the thickness and hardness of the metal strip 1.
  • These current fluctuations are, therefore, suitable pulses to control the operation of the rolling mill which follows.
  • the two induction coils 7, 7a are interconnected in such a way that the induced currents are added if the measuring heads 2, 2a move in opposite directions, but are differenced, and hence substantially cancel one another, if the heads 2, 2a move in the same direction.
  • the effect of interconnecting the two coils 7, 7a as mentioned above is to prevent such movements of the metal strip 1 from giving rise to any undesired control pulses.
  • the control pulses induced in the coils 7 and 7a and corresponding to the fluctuations in the thickness and hardness of the metal strip 1 are supplied over a lead 8 to an electrical amplifier 9.
  • Amplified pulses are supplied by the amplifier 9 over a lead 10 to control a hydraulic valve 11.
  • This converts the electrical pulses into fluctuations in pressure, which are transmitted by pipes 12, 12a to hydraulic cylinders 13, 13a and pistons 14, 14a.
  • a rack 15 connected to the pistons 14, 14a is thereby displaced, the displacement being transferred by a gear rim to a cam 16.
  • the cam 16 controls the pressure with which a backing roll 17 of the rolling mill following the measuring and control apparatus presses onto the work roll 18 and the work roll onto the metal strip 1.
  • induction coil arrangement to convert the fluctuations in the thickness and hardness of the material passing through into measuring and control pulses is preferred, although not essential.
  • the fluctuations may also be converted by means of light rays and photoelectric cells or with the aid of 'y-rays.
  • control pulses to act on a hydraulic system. They could, for example, be converted into mechanical movements to control any desired system.
  • the hydraulic arrangement here described is, however, specially preferred, particularly in combination with a rolling mill, as the roll pressure is controlled by the pulse without any substantial movement of mechanical parts, such as the setting of levers, the engagement and disengagement of clutches, the starting of control motors and the like, and the system, therefore, operates with so little inertia that the roll pressure is always controlled by the pulse at the correct time.
  • the distance between the measuring heads 2, 2a and the control member located in the processing machine which follows is selected so that the time between the derivation of the measuring pulse and the controlling of the processing machine is adapted to the speed at which the material passes through.
  • a time delay or relay may preferably be provided to compensate for fluctuations and variations in the speed of the moving material.
  • the apparatus should have two measuring heads on each side of the machine controlled, as shown in the left-hand measuring apparatus C and the right-hand measuring apparatus C in FIG. 4 and the pulses should in each case be derived by the two measuring heads located before the point of entry of the material into the machine.
  • FIG. 2 of the accompanying drawings shows such a plant, in which the material B to be processed, emerging from the chiller A cast but with an irregular surface, passes through the advancing and planishing mill D controlled by the apparatus C according to the invention and through a milling machine E, and is then rolled up or fed to a finishing plant F.
  • the apparatus according to the invention makes it possible for the first time to measure not only the thickness but also the hardness of the material passing through and to utilize the measuring impulses obtained to control the operation of a processing machine which follows, particularly a rolling mill. lt is, therefore, now possible to produce rolled material of truly uniform thickness, which represents a considerable technical advance provided by the invention.

  • an adjusting means operatively connected to said strip working means to adjust the latter in accordance with strip characteristics
  • measuring head assembly positioned upstream of said strip working means for regulating the adjustment of said strip working means in response to fluctuations in the thickness and hardness characteristics of the strip material, said measuring head assembly comprising:

  • control means is operatively connected to said measuring head means and said adjusting means such that the time between the, sensing of thickness and hardness fluctuations and the operation of said adjusting means is correlated to the speed of said strip material.
