[0031] An embodiment of the present application provides a rolling mill 100, which includes a first working roll 10, a second working roll 20 and a side support roll 30; wherein the first working roll 10 and the second working roll 20 are arranged side by side; the side support roll 30 is located on the side of the first working roll 10 away from the second working roll 20, and the side support roll 30 is used to drive the first working roll 10 to move toward the second working roll 20 so that the first working roll 10 and the second working roll 20 can roll the plate.
[0032] In the above embodiment, the side support roll 30 includes a plurality of backing bearings 40 arranged along the extension direction of the first working roll 10. The backing bearings 40 can be divided into a first backing bearing 41, a second backing bearing 42, and a third backing bearing 43. The first backing bearing 41 is located between the second backing bearing 42 and the third backing bearing 43. The outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the second backing bearing 42, and the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the third backing bearing 43.
[0033] In the rolling mill 100 provided in the present application, a second backing bearing 42, a first backing bearing 41 and a third backing bearing 43 are sequentially arranged on the side support roller 30, and the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the second backing bearing 42, and the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the third backing bearing 43. The outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 located in the middle section of the side support roller 30 is the largest, so that the side support roller 30 will not deviate in the process of supporting the first working roller 10 and driving the first working roller 10 to move toward the second working roller 20, thereby improving the support stability of the side support roller 30 on the first working roller 10.
[0034] In some embodiments, the outer diameters of all backing bearings 40 are within a certain range. For example, the outer diameters of the backing bearings 40 are 149 mm to 150 mm. That is, the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42, and the third backing bearing 43 are all 149 mm to 150 mm. This configuration reduces the difference in outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42, and the third backing bearing 43 on the entire side support roll 30, improves the outer diameter accuracy of the entire side support roll 30, and thereby enhances the support stability of the side support roll 30 on the first work roll 10.
[0035] In conjunction with the aforementioned embodiment in which the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is greater than the outer diameter of the second backing bearing 42, and the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is greater than the outer diameter of the third backing bearing 43, the difference between the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41 and the second backing bearing 42 is within a certain range, for example, the difference between the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41 and the second backing bearing 42 is less than 0.02 mm. The difference between the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41 and the third backing bearing 43 is also within a certain range, for example, the difference between the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41 and the third backing bearing 43 is less than 0.02 mm. This arrangement further reduces the difference in outer diameters of the first, second, and third backing bearings 41, 42, and 43 on the entire side support roll 30, improves the accuracy of the outer diameter of the entire side support roll 30, and thereby enhances the support stability of the side support roll 30 on the first work roll 10.
[0036] In the above embodiment, there can be multiple first backing bearings 41, and the difference in outer diameters between two adjacent first backing bearings 41 is less than 0.01 mm; there can be multiple second backing bearings 42, and the difference in outer diameters between two adjacent second backing bearings 42 is less than 0.01 mm; there can be multiple third backing bearings 43, and the difference in outer diameters between two adjacent third backing bearings 43 is less than 0.01 mm.
[0037] Through the above arrangement, the differences in outer diameters among the plurality of first backing bearings 41, the plurality of second backing bearings 42, and the plurality of third backing bearings 43 are similarly reduced, thereby improving the accuracy of the outer diameter of the entire side support roller 30, and further improving the support stability of the side support roller 30 for the first working roller 10.
[0038] In some embodiments, the lengths of the first backing bearing 41 , the second backing bearing 42 , and the third backing bearing 43 in the extending direction of the first working roll 10 are between 117.5 mm and 117.7 mm.
[0039] Through the above arrangement, the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42 and the third backing bearing 43 are made to be similar in length direction, so that the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42 and the third backing bearing 43 can all be subjected to approximately the same force, thereby preventing a single backing bearing 40 from being subjected to excessive force.
[0040] In some embodiments, the side support roll 30 further includes a main shaft 50 extending in the same direction as the first work roll 10. The second backing bearing 42, the first backing bearing 41, and the third backing bearing 43 are sleeved on the main shaft 50. The inner diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42, and the third backing bearing 43 can all be between 59.97 mm and 59.99 mm. The outer diameter of the main shaft 50 is also between 59.97 mm and 59.99 mm. This reduces the clearance between the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42, and the third backing bearing 43 and the main shaft 50.
[0041] Through the above arrangement, on the basis of limiting the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42 and the third backing bearing 43, the inner diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42 and the third backing bearing 43 are further limited, so that the assembly accuracy of the entire side support roller 30 can be improved.
[0042] Based on the side support rollers 30 in the rolling mill 100 described above, the present application further provides a method for installing the side support rollers 30 of the rolling mill 100. The method for installing the side support rollers 30 of the rolling mill 100 includes:
[0043] Preparation before assembly:

[0049] Assembly process:
[0050] S100: selecting a first backing bearing, a second backing bearing, and a third backing bearing with outer diameters within a first range and inner diameters within a second range, wherein the outer diameter of the first backing bearing is greater than the outer diameter of the second backing bearing and greater than the outer diameter of the third backing bearing.
[0051] In S100, the outer diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42, and the third backing bearing 43 are all 149 mm to 150 mm, and the inner diameters of the first backing bearing 41, the second backing bearing 42, and the third backing bearing 43 are all 59.97 mm to 59.99 mm.
[0052] S200: Select a spindle with a diameter within the second range.
[0053] In S200 , the outer diameter of the main shaft 50 is 59.97 mm to 59.99 mm.
[0054] Next, check the backing bearing 40 for deformation. If it is not deformed, measure its length to ensure it is between 117.5 mm and 117.7 mm. If it is out of tolerance, replace the bushing. This means ensuring the length of the first, second, and third backing bearings 41, 42, and 43 in the direction of extension of the first work roll 10 is between 117.5 mm and 117.7 mm.
[0055] S300: sequentially sleeve the plurality of backing bearings on the main shaft, including sequentially sleeve the second backing bearing, the first backing bearing, and the third backing bearing on the main shaft.
[0056] In some embodiments, the method for installing the side support rollers 30 of the rolling mill 100 further includes rotating the main shaft 50 by a preset angle to change the pressure area of the main shaft 50 and extend the service life of the main shaft 50 .
[0057] The rolling mill 100 is installed by the installation method of the side support roller 30 of the rolling mill 100 provided in the present application. The second backing bearing 42, the first backing bearing 41 and the third backing bearing 43 are arranged in sequence on the side support roller 30, and the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the second backing bearing 42, and the outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the third backing bearing 43. The outer diameter of the first backing bearing 41 located in the middle section of the side support roller 30 is the largest, so that the side support roller 30 will not deviate in the process of supporting the first working roller 10 and driving the first working roller 10 to move toward the second working roller 20, thereby improving the support stability of the side support roller 30 on the first working roller 10.
