Abstract
On the cooling roll with outer roll shell 7 and inner, preforated roll shell 8 of an inner body 6, the inner body features endways and centrally at least one distributing component 22. Extending through this distributing component are channels 19 that are parallel with the roll axis, for one, and interposed radial channels 28 which, for one, serve the connection of an endwise space 14 that is located between an axial end of the inner body and the hollow roll end with one of the coaxial supply or drain channels of the journal 20 and, for another, serve the connection of the interior space 3 of the inner body 6 with one of the other coaxial supply and drain channels 25, 26 or vice versa.
Claims7
A cooling roll comprising:
- a hollow outer roll shell;
- a pair of spaced outer radial support disks supporting said outer roll shell;
- a pair of journals each supporting one of said pair of outer radial support disks;
- a hollow inner body disposed within said outer roll shell and between said pair of outer radial support disks, said inner body having an inner roll shell defining in part a central interior space, said outer roll shell and the inner roll shell defining an annular space therebetween, the inner roll shell having distributed across the length and circumference thereof holes communicating the hollow inner body with the annular space for the passage of coolant into the annular space;
- said pair of outer radial support disks and said hollow inner body defining therebetween a pair of disk-shaped end spaces each at an axial end of said inner body, said disk-shaped spaces communicating with the annular space;
- a supply channel and a drain channel, one disposed radially outside the other, each extending coaxially from the hollow inner body to one journal supporting the cooling roll;
- and
- a central distributing component at one axial end of the inner body proximate said one journal, in which distributing component first channels are disposed at an inclination of at least 75.degree. with respect to a radial plane and connect one of said central interior space and said end spaces with the coaxial supply channel, and in which distributing component second channels are disposed at an inclination of at most 65.degree. with respect to a radial plane, said second channels being between said first channels and connecting the other of said central interior space and said end spaces with the coaxial drain channel.
