Abstract
The present invention pertains to a slide block for articulated spindles on drives of rolling mills, whereby the articulated spindle (1) has a flat peg (2), whose tongue (3) meshes with a cylindrical opening of the spindle head (4), which opening lies at right angles to the axis of rotation, between which [spindle head] and the flat peg (2) is arranged the slide block (5). The slide block (5) is embodied in a composite construction, with a metallic inner body (6) and an outer layer (7) made of polymer fiber material surrounding this [inner body].
Claims4
Slide block for articulated spindles on drives of rolling mills, whereby the said articulated spindle (1) has a flat peg (2), whose tongue (3) meshes with a cylindrical opening of a spindle head (4), which opening lies at right angles to the axis of rotation, between which spindle head and said flat peg (2) is arranged said slide block (5),
- characterized in that
- said slide block (5) is embodied in a composite construction configured to accommodate high contact pressure during transfer of torque in said rolling mill drives, said composite construction comprising a metallic inner body (6) and an outer layer (7) made of polymer fiber material surrounding said inner body.
Slide block in accordance with any one of the above claims, characterized in that said slide block (5) consists of a plurality of partial segments, which are each embodied in said composite construction.
