Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of steel rolling production equipment, in particular to a roll balancing device for a strip steel four-roller rolling mill. Background Art

[0002] Steel rolling equipment is a professional equipment for metal rolling process. Due to its heavy workload, in practical application, in addition to effective fixing measures, corresponding balancing devices should be designed to ensure the stability of steel rolling mill. Roller balancing devices play an important role in balancing the gap between rollers. If there are no such balancing devices, the rolled piece will have a great impact on the rollers of the steel rolling mill before rolling begins, which will deteriorate the working conditions of the steel rolling mill and reduce the service life of the steel rolling mill. At the same time, these balancing devices reduce the gap between rollers and provide a good foundation for finishing rolling.

[0003] The most widely used balancing devices on rolling mills are spring balancing, weight balancing and hydraulic balancing. 1. Ordinary spring balancing is mainly used on rolling mills where the upper roll moves very little or very little. The spring is placed on the upper part of the frame cover, and the lower shoe seat of the upper roll is hung on the balancing device through a tie rod. When the upper roll descends, the spring is compressed and relaxed when it rises. Therefore, the balancing force of the spring is variable. The longer the spring, the more stable the balancing force. However, the elastic deformation range of the spring balance is small, and the spring is prone to creep and fail. 2. Weight balancing. The weight balancing device is widely used on rolling mills where the upper roll moves a lot and moves frequently. This balancing device uses a lever to transmit the balancing force of the weight to the upper roll bearing seat through a support beam and a top rod. The weight is usually installed under the working machine base. The weight balancing has a simple structure, a large adjustment height, and is more reliable. However, since a heavy weight is installed on the lower part of the machine base, the foundation is deepened and becomes complicated. 3. Hydraulic balancing. Hydraulic balance is widely used in modern high-precision rolling mills. This type of balancing device has various forms. Its advantages are that the adjustment part is compact and easy to operate, and roll changing and maintenance are relatively convenient; its disadvantages are that the adjustment height should not be too high, otherwise it will be difficult to manufacture and maintain; a dedicated hydraulic pump station is required, which requires a large investment. At the same time, space must be reserved in the workshop to place this device, and dedicated personnel must be assigned to manage and maintain it.

[0004] Based on the above reasons, there is an urgent need for a roll balancing device for a strip steel four-roller rolling mill that is light in structure, easy to replace, and can ensure smooth production. Utility Model Content
