Abstract
An apparatus for winding up a metal strip into a coil. A frame in which a second counter-bending roller is mounted in a rotatable manner. The frame is movable with the aid of a second setting device between a coiler shaft position and a roller bed position. In the roller bed position, the second counter-bending roller alongside a first counter-bending roller acts as the roller bed roller of a roller bed which is arranged above the coiling device.

1-16. (canceled)
A device for winding up a metal strip on a coil;
- comprising:
- a coiling device provided with a coiling mandrel for winding up the strip;
- a drive device, mounted upstream of the coiling device seen in a direction of transport of the strip in order to convey the strip in the coiling device;
- a bending device arranged between the drive device and the coiling device, provided with a first and second counter-bending rollers for supporting the strip in a path of the strip to the coiling device on an upper side of the strip, and with a bending roller for supporting the strip on a lower side, wherein the first counter-bending roller is mounted upstream of the second counter-bending roller, and wherein the bending device is further provided with a first adjusting device for the bending roller and with a second adjusting device for the second counter-bending roller;
- and
- a control device for controlling the first adjusting device and the second adjusting device in such a way that the bending roller is bendable between a bending position, in which the strip is bent through cooperation between the first and the second counter-bending rollers, and the bending roller, and wherein the strip is movable to a retracted position;
- wherein the first counter-bending roller is mounted rotatably but in a fixed manner as a roller bed roller of a roller bed arranged above the coiling device;
- wherein a frame is provided, in which the second counter-bending roller is rotatably mounted;
- a swivel joint is provided for coupling the second adjusting device to the frame;
- and
- the control device is further configured for pivoting the frame with the second counter-bending roller between a coiling shaft position and a roller bed position, in which the second counter-bending roller is arranged next to the first counter-bending roller as the roller bed roller of the roller bed.
