Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A rollingmill in which a pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls which are shiftable in the axial direction according to the width of a material to be rolled are interposed between a pair of upper and lower work rolls and a pair of upper and lower backup rolls, and the flatness of the rolled material is controlled by the combined effects of the adjustably axially shifted intermediate rolls andthe roll bending action.
  • This invention relates to rolling mills and more particularly to such rolling mills which have a unique roll arrangement and roll structure. andare provided-with a unique roll driving system.
  • the phenomenon in which the work-rolls are bent under'rolling pressure is attributable to the fact that the opposite end portions of the working rolls which are not in contact with the material being rolled are sub- I jected to the bending moments caused. by the contact load with backup rolls. and such a phenomenon naturally causes a remarkable thickness unevenness of the rolled plate near the boundary between the portions of the work rolls which are in engagement with the material and the portions of the same which are not in engagement with the material, or at. the opposite edge portions of the rolled plate.
  • the thickness unevenness becomes particularly greater as the width of the rolled plate becomes narrower relative to the length of the work rolls because the bending moments becomes larger and the deflection of the work rolls becomes greater.
  • the effect of the roll bending method is largely influenced by the diameter of the work rolls. F or'instance, when the diameter of the work tions of the rolls. Furthermore, since the roll bending force is subjected to a limitation by the strength or roll necks and the service live of bearings, the adjustment of the roll bending effect is possible'only within a'limrolls is small, the roll bending action is restricted by the backup rolls and its effect appears only at the end por- However, in actual rolling mills it is usual that the width of the rolled materials frequently changes and, if the rolls are exchanged at each time the width changes, the working efficiency would be reduced greatly. In addition, a large number of rolls having different initial crowns must be provided, which increases the number of spare rolls and increases the operational cost, with theresult that the production cost becomes high.
  • the first object of the present invention is to provide a rolling'mil] in which, in transmitting the rolling load to work rolls, the influence of the bending moments occurring in the work rollson the flatness in the widthwise direction of the rolled material is minimized, thereby to improve the flatness of the rolled material.
  • the second object of theinvention is to provide a rolling mill in which the values of the bending moments acting. on work rolls are made small, thereby to minimize the bending of the workv rolls and improve the flatness of the rolled material.
  • the third object of the invention is to provide a rolling mill in which, even when the width of the rolled material is required to be changed frequently, the shape of each rolled material can be controlled without changing rolls, so that the working efficiency of the rolling mill is enhanced.
  • the fourth object of the invention is to provide a rolling mill having work rolls of high rigidity, in which the flatness of the rolled material can be improved without making the end portions of the work rolls or intermediate rolls complicated in shape.
  • the present invention is applied to rolling mills of the type having work rolls of high rigidity, e.g. workrolls whose diameter is substantially larger than 18. percent of the length of the rolling surface (the effective length of the roll surface which can substantially be used for rolling), and backup rolls respectively disposed exteriorly of the work rolls.
  • the rolling mill according to the invention is characterized in that intermediate rolls are interposed respectively between work rolls and backup rolls, said intermediate rolls being of such type that the diameter of the portions which can be brought into contact with the work rolls is substantially constant over the length of such portions and there is provided means for shifting each intermediate roll relative to the associated work roll in the axial direction of the roll so that one end of said portions of said intermediate roll may be positioned in a vertical plane including one widthwise end of a material being rolled or adjacent to said plane, whereby a bending moment is developed in one of the work rolls which acts in the same direction as the direction of the bending moment developed in the cooperating work roll, due to the pressure distribution between the work roll and intermediate roll, the high rigidity of the work roll and the relative position of the work roll and the relative position of the work roll and inten'nediate roll.
  • the relative position of the work roll and the material being rolled may be adjusted based on the rolling load distribution between said work roll and said material, or means for applying a roll bending force to the end portion of the work roll may be used.
  • the fifth object of the present invention is to provide a novel and efiective rolling mill in which the relation between the plate width change and the deformation of work rolls and the relation between the roll bending effect and the length of backup rolls are combined in an ingenious manner, whereby the above-described problems have been solved.
  • the rolling mill comprises a pair of upper and lower work rolls supported by metal chocks respectively being vertically movable and providing for a roll bending action, a pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls respectively arranged above and below said work rolls for contact therewith and being shiftable in the axial direction according to the width of a material to be rolled and backup rolls arranged above and below said intermediate rolls for contact therewith, said intermediate rolls being adjustably axially shifted to control the flatness of the rolled material in cooperation with the roll bending action.
  • a pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls which are axially shifted such that one end of each roll is placed in line with one end of the material being rolled, whereby one end of each work roll has the same rolling effect as obtainable when one end of each backup roll is in alignment with one edge of the rolled plate, and thus the bending moments as mentioned above are decreased.
  • the effect on the other end of each work roll is insufficient because the opposite ends of a pair of the upper and lower intermediate rolls cannot always be located in registration with the opposite edges of of the material being rolled in response to the change of width of said material.
  • the sixth object of the invention is to provide a rolling mill of the character described above, which is provided with a novel roll driving system to drive said work rolls and cause axial shifting of the intermediate rolls.
  • the rolling mill described previously there must be provided means for shifting the intermediate rolls in the axial direction and retaining them at the desired positions, in addition to the driving shafts to drive the work rolls. Therefore, the rolling mill tends to become large in size and complicated in construction. Further, the space around the main body of the rolling mill becomes extremely narrow, making the maintenance and inspection difficult.
  • the present invention provides a rolling mill-of the character described above, which is so constructed that driving of the work rolls and axial shifting of the intermediate rolls are effected by the same driving shafts.
  • the seventh object of the invention is to provide a rolling mill of the character described above, in which the thrust loads acting on the axially shiftable intermediate rolls are received rationally and effectively.
  • the rolling mill is characterized in that the driving shafts to drive the work roll and cause axial shifting of the intermediate rolls are extended through a roll driving pinion stand speed reduction device and connected to a roll shifting and retaining device.
  • the roll shifting and retaining device need not be disposed in the narrow space around the main body of the rolling mill and can be disposed rearwardly of the pinion stand speed reduction device where the maintenance and inspection are easy.
  • the thrusts acting on the intermediate rolls can be received by the roll shifting and retaining device, without the necessity for providing any additional means.
  • the rolling mills according to the present invention each is a sort of multistage rolling mill comprising eight or six rolls, but is substantially free of the following defects of the conventional multistage rolling mills.

  • the narrow space around the upper and lower work rolls has inevitably impaired the workability and safety in maintenance and inspection.
  • such problems are substantially solved owing to the novel roll arrangement which provides a sufficiently wide space around the work rolls.
  • the eighth object of the invention is to provide a rolling method in which is used a rolling mill of the type having work rolls of high rigidity and in which the shape of the rolled material can be controlled without changing the rolls even when the required plate width of the rolled material varies.
