Abstract
A coiler device (1), provided with a chute roller (50), has: pinch rollers (10a, 10b) that lead a metal sheet carried in along a path line (L1) to a coil-up line (L2) that is curved from the path line (L1); a mandrel (20) that coils the metal sheet and is disposed ahead of the coil-up line (L2); and a chute roller (50) that exposes at least the leading end of the metal sheet to the coil-up line (L2) when being wound to the mandrel (20), and suppresses curving of the metal sheet toward a surface of the metal sheet facing the chute roller (50).
Claims11
A coiler device provided with a chute roller, comprising:
- a pinch roller configured to guide a metal strip being conveyed along a pass line to a winding line bent from the pass line;
- a mandrel disposed downstream of the winding line with respect to a traveling direction of the metal strip and configured to wind up the metal strip;
- and
- the chute roller configured to suppress an upward movement of the metal strip away from the mandrel,
- a chute guide disposed between the mandrel and the chute roller and configured to guide a leading end of the metal strip so as to be wrapped around the mandrel;
- a bending roller being disposed on an upstream side of the pinch roller with respect to the traveling direction of the metal strip, and being capable of approaching and receding from the pass line;
- a bending roller drive configured to cause the bending roller to approach the pass line to apply a pressure to the metal strip so that the metal strip comes into contact with the chute roller at least when the leading end of the metal strip is about to be wrapped around the mandrel.
