AI Technical Summary
When the existing locking cylinder's disc spring fails, the rolling mill's piston rod cannot extend normally, causing the rolls to be unable to be fixed in the actual working position, and making maintenance difficult.
Design a rolling mill locking cylinder by setting a rear chamber and a front chamber between the cylinder and the piston rod, and opening a first oil passage and a second oil passage on the outer wall of the cylinder. Hydraulic oil is used to lock the position of the rolling mill rolls when the disc spring fails, and the piston rod is retracted by compressing the spring through the second oil passage during maintenance.
Even after the disc spring fails, it can still maintain the normal operation of the rolling mill piston rod, which facilitates maintenance and disassembly, reduces cylinder wear, and improves the service life of the locking cylinder.
