Abstract
A rolling mill driving AC motor including a stator, a rotor engaged with the stator and mounted on a rotor spider, stub shafts extending removably from the rotor spider respectively to a load side and the side opposite to the load side. Further a pair of bearing pedestals erected on a bed for supporting both said stub shafts, and a pit formed in a lower central portion of the bed.
Claims4
An AC motor for driving a rolling mill, comprising:
- a stator;
- a rotor engaged with said stator and mounted on a rotor spider;
- stub shafts extending removably from said rotor spider respectively to a load side and the side opposite to the load side;
- a bed for said motor;
- a pair of bearing pedestals erected on said bed for supporting both said stub shafts the first of said bearing pedestals being positioned on the load side and the second of said bearing pedestals being positioned on the side opposite the load side;
- said bed being divided into a first bed section for supporting said first pedestal and a second bed section for supporting said second pedestal;
- and
- a pit formed below said bed;
- said bed extending beyond said pit on the load side and terminating substantially at the end of said pit on the side opposite to the load side;
- said pit at the end opposite to the load side extending to a position below said second pedestal so that the stator can be moved axially a distance sufficient to expose the rotor for removal.
