Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steel rolling equipment, in particular to a working roll shifting device, and also to a rolling mill. Background Art

[0002] In the field of medium and thick plate rolling mills, the roll shifting device is the preferred measure to control the plate shape and even out the wear of the working rolls. It also plays a certain role in improving the bending efficiency of the rolls, reducing excessive deflection of the working rolls, and reducing the harmful contact area. According to the requirements of the thickness variation range of the rolled product, the roll shifting device must not only assume the function of plate shape control, but also meet the axial locking function of the full stroke range. According to the structure and layout of the roll shifting cylinder, the existing roll shifting devices are mainly divided into two categories. One is a coaxial roll shifting structure, that is, there is no eccentric distance between the axial force of the working roll and the roll shifting cylinder, and no eccentric load torque is generated. The other is an eccentric roll shifting structure, that is, the axial force of the working roll and the roll shifting cylinder generate an eccentric distance, and the eccentric load torque is proportional to the eccentric distance. A large eccentric torque can easily cause the hydraulic cylinder rod in the roll shifting device to break. Utility Model Content

[0034] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application may be combined with each other. The following will describe the present utility model in detail with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0035] For the convenience of understanding and description, an absolute positional relationship is adopted in the following description of the present utility model. Without special instructions, the orientation word "upper" herein represents Figure 1 the upper side direction in Figure 1 the orientation word "lower" represents Figure 1 the lower side direction in Figure 1 the orientation word "left" represents Figure 1 the left side direction in Figure 1 the orientation word "right" represents

[0036] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, a working roll shifting roll device described in an embodiment of the present utility model includes a shifting roll frame 11, a guiding block 12 and a shifting roll hydraulic cylinder 19. The guiding block 12 and the shifting roll hydraulic cylinder 19 are arranged front and rear on the shifting roll frame 11. The shifting roll hydraulic cylinder 19 can drive the guiding block 12 to move back and forth. A first mounting hole 1201 is provided inside the rear end of the guiding block 12. The shifting roll hydraulic cylinder 19 includes a shifting roll cylinder rod 1901. The shifting roll cylinder rod 1901 includes a head section 1902 and a rod section 1903 which are connected front and rear. The head section 1902 is a spherical segment structure.

A first spherical pad 15 and a second spherical pad 16 are sleeved outside the spherical crown surface of the head section 1902. The first spherical pad 15 and the second spherical pad 16 are arranged parallel and spaced apart front and rear. A hoop 116 is sleeved outside the first spherical pad 15 and the second spherical pad 16. The first spherical pad 15, the second spherical pad 16 and the hoop 116 are also all located inside the first mounting hole 1201.

[0037] The front end head section 1902 of the cylinder rod of the shifting roller hydraulic cylinder 19 in the working roller shifting device adopts a spherical structure, and is covered in the guide block 12 with a first spherical pad 15 and a second spherical pad 16. The first spherical pad 15 and the second spherical pad 16 are matched and connected with the head section 1902. The first spherical pad 15 and the second spherical pad 16 are provided with a sleeve 116 on the outer sleeve. The sleeve 116 can not only make the first spherical pad 15 and the second spherical pad 16 stable in the first mounting hole 1201, but also ensure the anti-eccentric load capability of the shifting roller cylinder rod 1901, thereby greatly improving the service life of the shifting roller hydraulic cylinder.

[0038] Specifically, the collar 116 can wrap the first spherical pad 15 and the second spherical pad 16 into a single unit, alleviating precision issues caused by uneven wear of the first and second spherical pads 15, 16. The collar 116 is manufactured and assembled with high precision. When the roller shifting hydraulic cylinder 19 is subjected to lateral forces, the external collar 116 can distribute some of the lateral forces, thereby improving the roller shifting cylinder rod 1901's ability to resist off-center loads.

[0041] The inner circumference of the second spherical pad 16 is mated and connected to the head section 1902. The second spherical pad 16 and the ferrule 116 have a transition fit or interference fit. The ferrule 116, the first spherical pad 15, and the second spherical pad 16 can all be made of steel. The wall thickness of the ferrule 116 can be 45 mm to 55 mm.

The blocking cover 111 and the locking hydraulic cylinder 112 are arranged on the left and right. The locking hydraulic cylinder 112 and the blocking cover 111 are both connected and fixed to the guide block 12 through the bracket 110.

[0046] like Figure 7 As shown, the cylinder barrel and the baffle 111 of the locking hydraulic cylinder 112 are connected to the bracket 110 by bolts. The locking hydraulic cylinder 112 can drive the locking plate 14 to move left and right. The axis of the locking cylinder rod 11201 of the locking hydraulic cylinder 112 extends along the left and right directions. The locking cylinder rod 11201 can move left and right. The locking cylinder rod 11201 of the locking hydraulic cylinder 112 is fixed to the locking plate 14 by screws.

[0047] A protrusion 1204 is provided on the right side of the front end of the guide block 12, and the right end of the locking plate 14 is located outside the second mounting hole 1202.

[0050] Two pairs of work roll shifting devices 1 are arranged symmetrically. Each pair includes a work roll shifting device 1 spaced apart from one another. Thus, a rolling mill comprises four work roll shifting devices 1. The shifting frames 11 are bolted to the mill housing 3. The locking plates 14 and protrusions 1204 lock the bearing seats 22 of the work roll devices 2.

[0051] The working process of the rolling mill and the work roll shifting device 1 is described below.
