The invention relates to a rolling stand and a rolling mill for the rolling of preferably metallic rolling stock. Known rolling stands of this type typically have two back-up rolls (110) which are rotatably mounted by way of their roll journals in chocks which function as oil film bearings. The oil film bearings are supplied with coolant and/or lubricant by means of a low-pressure circuit which has at least one low-pressure pump (130) for conveying the coolant and/or lubricant. To reduce the costs for driving the low-pressure pump (130), there is provided according to the invention a gear mechanism which is arranged on the roll face-remote side of at least one of the chocks in order to rotationally couple the at least one low-pressure pump (130) to the back-up roll journal (120) which is rotatably mounted in the chock.
A rolling stand (100) for rolling preferably metallic rolling stock comprising two back-up rolls each with two back-up roll journals (110), four chocks (120) in the form of oil film bearings, each with a cylindrical receiving space for the rotatable support of one of the back-up roll journals (110), wherein the chocks comprise in their interior at least one low-pressure supply conduit (122′) for supplying coolant and/or lubricant into the receiving space and comprise at least one low-pressure discharge conduit (124′) for removing the coolant and/or lubricant out of the receiving space, and at least one low-pressure circuit with a low-pressure supply lines (122) for connecting a tank (140) for the coolant and/or lubricant to the low-pressure supply conduit (122′) of the chock, with low-pressure discharge lines (124) for connecting the low-pressure discharge conduit to the tank, and with at least one low-pressure pump (130) for delivering the coolant and/or lubricant into the low-pressure circuit,
A rolling mill (200) with a plurality of rolling stands (100) arranged sequentially in a line for rolling metallic rolling stock,
