Abstract
A material-bed roller mill including two adjacently arranged rollers which are oriented in an axially parallel manner and which rotate in opposite directions and between which a roller gap is formed, a foundation, two roller mountings, in each of which a roller is rotatably mounted, each roller mounting being secured to the foundation in a pivotal manner; and a clamping device. The clamping device is arranged outside of the roller gap and connects the two roller mountings. Each roller mounting has two rockers which are designed as separate components and each of which is arranged at an end of a roller and can be deflected independently of the other.
Claims12
A material-bed roller mill comprising:
- two juxtaposed rollers arranged in an initial state axially parallel to each other and rotatable in opposite directions and forming a roller gap between them, each roller having a longitudinal axis,
- a base,
- two roller mountings, in each of which one of the two rollers is rotatably mounted, wherein each roller mounting is pivotally attached to the base, and
- a clamping device which is arranged outside the roller gap and interconnects the roller mountings,
- wherein each roller mounting has two rockers, formed as separate components, respectively arranged at ends of each of the rollers and being deflectable independently of each other, wherein each rocker has a longitudinal axis,
- wherein at least one of the rockers of a respective one of the roller mountings is capable of performing at least two of the following movements:
- pivoting movement about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the roller of the respective one of the roller mountings,
- rotary movement about the longitudinal axis of the at least one rocker,
- rotary movement about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the at least one rocker,
- rotary movement about an axis being perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the at least one rocker and being different from an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the roller of a respective one of the roller mountings.
