Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of steel rolling equipment, specifically relating to an adjustment device applied to the adjustment sleeve of the pinch roll. Background Technology
[0002] Pinch rolls are key equipment in high-speed wire rod production. They are primarily used to smoothly guide the wire rod from the finishing mill exit to the cooling tank and into the spinneret tube, while preventing excessive speed as the wire rod exits the finishing mill. When producing thick wire rod, the pinch rolls must accelerate the pulling action to prevent blockage within the spinneret tube; their functional accuracy directly affects product quality. Therefore, the pinch roll gap needs frequent adjustment during production.
[0003] The roll gap is adjusted via an adjusting sleeve. The adjusting device drives the adjusting sleeve, which in turn adjusts the roll gap size through a transmission mechanism such as a gear set. Existing adjusting mechanisms, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes two sets of cylinders 4 (or hydraulic cylinders) that cooperate with the upper adjusting sleeve 2 and the lower adjusting sleeve 3, and the position range of the upper adjusting sleeve is controlled by the adjusting rod 13. In the above structure, the upper and lower adjusting sleeves are adjusted separately by two sets of cylinders (or hydraulic cylinders) as driving mechanisms. The structure is complex, has poor synchronization, and is slow to respond. At the same time, in the existing adjustment mechanism, the upper adjusting sleeve is limited by a limiting sleeve. The limiting sleeve is an integral structure and cannot be adjusted. It can basically meet the adjustment needs in the initial stage, but if wear occurs during operation, it cannot be compensated in time, and there are also problems such as difficulty in disassembly and maintenance.
