Abstract
A mill stand has a roll housing which mounts chocks provided with cantilevered axles carrying workrolls with at least one axle being connected with a spindle geared to a drive. The spindle of at least one workroll is positioned in direct proximity with the axle which carries this workroll, on the side of its free end. Such mill stand construction makes it possible to effect rolling of difficult-to-form metals and alloys.
Claims4
A mill stand comprising:
- a roll housing;
- chocks mounted on said roll housing;
- axles having first ends non-rotatably fixed to said chocks;
- workrolls of toroidal shape rotatably mounted on said axles and forming a pass, with at least one of said workrolls being power driven;
- a drive for rotating said at least one of said workrolls;
- a spindle driven from and geared to said drive;
- connecting means for connecting said spindle and said at least one of said workrolls;
- said connecting means comprising a generally annular member, interconnecting said spindle and said at least one of said workrolls;
- said spindle being positioned in direct proximity with and on the side of the free end of one of said axles carrying said at least one of said workrolls to thereby permit the application of great force and hence permit rolling of difficult-to-form metals and alloys.
