US 7,784,321 B2 · Device for adapting working rolls to a rolling line

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for adapting working rolls, in particular of four-high stands, to a rolling line with at least one pair of wedges (1, 1′) in a region between parallel, spaced from each other, rolling mill stands (2, 2′), which are displaceable along a horizontal slideway relative to the stands (2, 2′) by toggle lever adjusting means. To this end, the wedges (1, 1′) of the wedge pair are connected with each other at a fixed distance from each other, and for their displacement an arrangement of two toggle levers (4, 5) is provided of which one lever (4) is supported on one wedge (1) with at least one articulated joint (6) and another lever (5) is supported on an opposite stand (2′) also with at least one articulated joint, and both levers (4, 5) are connected with each other by a longitudinally adjustable toggle joint (7).

A device for adapting working rolls of rolling mill stands (2, 2′) arranged parallel to each other and spaced from each other, the device comprising at least one pair of wedges (1, 1′) arranged in a region between the adjacent rolling mill stands (2, 2′), connected with each other at a fixed distance from each other, and displaceable along a horizontal slideway relative to the rolling mill stands (2, 2′);

and toggle lever adjusting means for displacing the wedges (1, 1 ‘) and having two toggle levers (4, 5), at least two articulated joints (6, 10) for supporting, respectively, one (4) of the two levers on a wedge (1) associated with one (2) of the two stands (2, 2’) and another (5) of the two levers on an opposite one of the two stands (2′), and a longitudinally adjustable toggle joint (7) for connecting the two levers (4, 5) with each other.
