Two-high rolling stand for bar and/or wire rolling mill

Abstract

A two-high rolling stand (1) for bar and/or wire rolling mill. The rolling stand (1) is characterized in that a roll package, which substantially comprises a pair of rolls (13) with their axial directions in parallel and necessary bearing devices (14) with bearings and bearing housings for supporting said rolls (13), is located between two side plates (16) or the like, which are in parallel with each other, and of which each plate (16) is arranged with its main extension plane (17) substantially in parallel with a plane through the centre lines of the rolls (13). The roll pair further is characterized in that the side plates (16) on opposed sides of said roll package are arranged to take up roll forces via two end members (18), and that the roll package is arranged so as directly and/or indirectly to rest against the end members (18). A further characterizing feature is that said end members (18) are arranged so as to permit adjustment of the roll distance, so-called roll gap adjustment.
