Abstract:
A method for securing a roll-ring onto the end of a roll-axle, comprising prefitting a roll-ring onto a roll-ring mount, and securing the mount with the roll-ring fitted thereon, onto the end of a roll axle. Securement is effected by passing one single screw-threaded bolt axially through an opening through the roll-ring mount, and tightening the bolt into a screw-threaded recess within the end of the roll-axle. The mount has a cylindrical end part (22) on which a roll-ring (30) can be secured, and the mount has an abutment surface (24) against which a roll-ring is to be pressed. Clamping structure (27, 28) presses the roll-ring against the abutment surface, and projections and recesses (25, 29, 31, 34) non-rotatably secure the mount to an end of a roll-axle. The end of the roll-axle has a conical recess in which a conical external surface on the roll-ring mount shape-matingly fits.

Abstract:
The roll forming machine consists in a succession of stands (1), each carrying at least two parallel forming rolls (12, 13) carried by shafts (48, 49) journaled on either side to a pair of uprights (16, 17) anchored permanently to a base (2) that can be clamped to and separated from the fixed bed (3) of the machine; the rolls (12, 13) of each stand are driven by way of respective p.t.o. shafts (32, 33) mounted to a further fixed upright (27) and carried in journal blocks (34, 35) of which at least one associates with the upright on a floating fit that will allow a margin of transverse movement in relation to the axis of rotation. Self-aligning couplings (38, 39) are used to connect the roll shafts (48, 49) with the p.t.o. shafts (32, 33).
Abstract:
Universal rolling stand with horizontal rolling rings supported as cantilevers on the mill stand, to the front of which stand is fitted a universal device (13) that forms a compact unit, pre-assembled and pre-positioned, comprising horizontal rolling rings (12), means (30) to secure the horizontal rings, vertical rolling rings (23) and equipment (33) to guide the rolled stock.
Abstract:
A portable carrier module for transporting work rolls and entry and exit guides to and from a cantilevered roll stand in a rolling mill. The carrier module remains removably mounted on the roll stand during the rolling operation, and includes integral roll cooling means automatically coupled to water supply conduits extending through the roll stand housing.
Abstract:
A cantilever type rolling mill having a pair of roll shafts rotatably supported in a roll housing on a roll stand, the rolling mill including a tension member provided axially through the center of a roll shaft and having the outer end thereof projecting out of the roll shaft; a roll unit holding a ring roll between a tapered sleeve engaging with one end face and inner periphery of the ring roll and a pressing washer engaging with the other end face of the ring roll; a roll compressing tool detachably engageable with the projecting end of the tension member and incorporating a hydraulic piston-cylinder, the roll compressing tool having a nut member threadedly fitted on the circumference thereof; a plurality of crown splines formed on the outer peripheries of the nut member and pressing washer; and an extraction ring having a crown spline on the inner periphery thereof and slidably and fixably engageable with the crown splines of the nut member and pressing washer.
Abstract:
The apparatus for changing the rolls (6) of a skew rolling mill comprises a roll-change carriage (14) movable along the direction of feed of material (10) being rolled. A carrier (11) is mounted on the carriage (14) and carries a plurality of roll-clamping devices (12). Locking means (19, 20) are provided for interlocking the rotor (2) carrying a plurality of roll heads (5) skew mounted thereon and the carrier (11) in a predetermined axially-aligned, spaced position for removing or replacing rolls by means of the clamping devices. In a preferred embodiment there are two carriers movable in alternate alignment with the rotor (2).
Abstract:
A roll mill stand comprises a housing which mounts chocks having secured therein journals carrying work rolls forming a pass, at least one of said work rolls being coupled by means of a splined joint with one end of a spindle, the other end of said spindle being connected by a splined joint to a pinion geared to a drive means. The roll mill stand is provided with an arrangement for axial displacement of the spindle, comprising a motion screw mounted coaxially with the spindle and coupled with its other end, the motion screw carrying a nut with a disk affixed to the end face thereof, the nut being mounted on a hub coupled with the spindle shaft for rotation with respect to said nut, the roll mill stand being additionally provided with a braking mechanism placed on the stationary part of the roll mill stand and cooperating with the disk of said nut, as said nut is being slowed down to disengage the spindle from the work roll.
