摘要:
A method of controlling the tension of a strip carried by a multitude of rollers disposed in four section of a furnace and driven by electric sources, one source for each section through respectives electric motors. The actual difference in tension of the strip between the inlet and outlet of each section is compared with a corresponding reference difference tension stored in a tension profile control circuit to form a tension deviation. An allotment-of-tension scheduling circuit successively receives all of actual tensions and sets a tension to each section and a correction factor. After having been amplified by the correction factor in one multiplier for each section, the tension deviation is applied to a speed regulator to control its associated allotted of tension and a tension profile within the furnace. The tension profile is changed by first applying the correction factor to the multiplier coupled to that section essentially affecting the strip and then successively sequentially applying the correction factor to the remaining multipliers.

A pinch roll unit for either propelling or retarding a product moving along the pass line of a rolling mill comprises a pair of levers mounted for rotation about parallel first axes. Roll shafts are carried by the levers with each roll shaft being journalled for rotation about a second axis parallel to the first axis of its respective lever. Pinch rolls are carried by the roll shafts and are positioned to define a gap therebetween for receiving the product. An electrically powered first motor operates via a linkage to rotate the levers about the first axes and to move the pinch rolls between open positions spaced from the product, and closed positions contacting and gripping the product therebetween. An electrically powered second motor rotatably drives the pinch rolls.

A method for treating elongated flexible material such as metallic strips, wire and tubes in a processing container holding a treatment fluid for treatment of the material chemically, electrolytically, by pickling, deposition and similar processes, provides for the steps of: coiling the material; imparting the coiled material the shape of a helix having a plurality of loops; causing at least a partial immersion of the loops of the helix in the treatment fluid; advancing the helix in the said container at an advance speed; controlling the entry speeds of the helix relative to a predetermined speed withdrawal of the helix from the container.In a preferred and more efficient mode of treatment, the inlet speed of the helix exceeds the exit speed with a consequent slow and progressive increase of the length of the helix immersed in the treatment fluid at a time in a first phase of the operation.In an additional improvement of the process in a second phase the inlet speed of the helix is temporarily lowered for restoring the initial length of the helix. Optimum speed limits are identified.The progress of the loops within the container is subjected to momentary stops to control also the size of the loops. The helix is imparted forward and backward directed wave patterns of controllable amplitudes, durations and directions, resulting in optimum desirable treatment fluid exposures.
摘要:
A method of rolling rod in which at least first and second strands are jointly rolled in a mill line having at least one final multistrand stand operating at a rolling speed which is variable as a result of predictable rolling events. Downstream of this stand the strands are separated and passed through single-strand mill stands and loops are provided upstream of the first single-strand mill stand in each line. Each loop has a loop length which can vary between a minimum and a maximum value. Before each of the rolling events occur at least one of the loop lengths is changed to an event optimizing value.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for accurately slitting a rod into two equal sections in which the rod is longitudinally advanced to a slitter and is laterally shifted by an in-line guide adjustment system or 1GA so that the slit sections will be equal. The rod sections are measured by the 1GA after slitting to evaluate any difference in size therebetween while the sections are advancing, and the 1GA transversely shifts the rod before it enters the slitter to eliminate any size differential between the slit sections.

An apparatus for conveying elongated flexible material such as metal strips, wire and tubes by means of rotating shafts in a processing container holding a treatment-fluid for treatment of the material chemically, electrolytically, by pickling, deposition and similar processes, provides for the means of: coiling the material, imparting the coiled material the shape of a helix having a plurality of loops; causing at least a partial immersion of the loops of the helix in the treatment-fluid; advancing the helix in the said container at an advance speed; controlling the entry speeds of the helix relative to a predetermined speed withdrawal of the helix from the container.In a preferred and more efficient mode of treatment, the inlet speed of the helix exceeds the exit speed with a consequent slow and progressive increase of the length of the helix immersed in the treatment-fluid at a time in a first phase of the operation.In an additional improvement of the apparatus means are provided to temporarily lower the inlet speed of the helix. Optimum speed limits are identified. Improved means are provided to subject the progress of the loops within the container from a decrease in advance down to momentary stops to control also the size of the loops. The helix is imparted forward and backward directed wave patterns of controllable amplitudes, durations and frequencies with superimposed oscillations in three orthogonal directions, resulting in optimum desirable treatment-fluid exposures of the loops.

An apparatus including combined means to control the size of helicoidal loops of an elongated flexible material and the linear speed of said material carried by horizontal rotary shafts and dipping into a treating agent inside a volume: the material inlet speed controls the speed of one of the shafts; it is positively driven up at the outlet; the effective linear speed inside the volume and the size of the loops are controlled by combined drives using different frictional properties of the material against the shafts and one wall sector of the volume, suitably covered for short temporary stopping contacts.
摘要:
Speed differential is detected between the entrance side and exit side of a looper, which is provided either on the feed side or on the delivery side of a central processing unit in continuous processing equipment and operates as a continuously supplying mechanism of steel plate, and positional relationship of movable rollers of the looper is detected, which virtually serves to diminish the speed differential, with reference to stationary rollers. By regulating the position of the movable rollers based upon the result of a calculation from the detected signals, the speed of the transported steel plate is controlled. First calculating apparatus calculates a relative speed differential based on the measurement of the looper entrance-side and exit-side speeds and the looper position and second calculating apparatus for calculating the optimum entrance-side speed based on the calculated result by the first calculating apparatus and the measured exit-side speed.

A novel control unit for driving plural loopers provided with a tension constant automatically adjusting circuit in which a looper speed on its slave side is controlled such that a plurality of loopers having different amounts for moving the loopers and different strand numbers pass through the same % positions at the same time in order to control these plural loopers, and the number of times in operation for correcting an error of % position which takes place at the time of stopping transference of the plural loopers is minimized.
