TECHNICAL AREA
[0001] The present invention relates to a stand mounting for two or more rolling stands of a rolling block arranged one behind the other in a rolling direction of a rolled material. BACKGROUND
[0002] Rolling blocks from the aforementioned technical field have been known for many decades. These rolling blocks are frequently used to produce round products that pass through several rolling stands in succession, gradually adapting a starting material to the desired shape and size of a semi-finished or finished product.
[0003] Previously, it was common practice to design a rolling block for a predetermined number of rolling stands arranged in succession. Four rolling stands per rolling block are typical, with the stands always arranged in pairs such that the rolls of one stand contact the material at points not contacted in a preceding stand. In the case of three-roll rolling stands, this is referred to as a Y-arrangement and an anti-Y-arrangement, which alternate.
[0004] A rolling block can accommodate all rolling stands together. From DE 10 2016 217 202 B4, a rolling block for rolling rod-shaped or tubular products is known, comprising two or more rolling stands arranged one behind the other in the rolling direction of the product being rolled. It includes at least one measuring device arranged in the rolling direction in front of, between, or behind the rolling stands to control or regulate the rolling speed in at least one of the rolling stands on this basis.
[0005] A disadvantage of the rolling blocks known from the prior art is that they can only accommodate the entirety of all rolling stands together and therefore cannot be flexibly adapted to different requirements.
[0006] A disadvantage of the method for determining the forces between the rolling stands and the forces acting on the rolling block from the outside, for example by a roughing road, is the influence of the common stand clamping on the measurement signals, which are thereby distorted. PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION
[0007] Against this background, one object of the present invention is to further develop a rolling block from the prior art in such a way that it can be adapted more flexibly to different requirements with regard to the number and arrangement of the rolling stands incorporated in the rolling block.
[0008] This problem is solved by a scaffold mount according to claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.
[0009] A stand support for two or more rolling stands of a roll block arranged one behind the other in one rolling direction of a rolled material has, according to a first aspect, two or more support modules arranged one behind the other, which are attached to a common lower base frame and a common upper cover frame.
[0010] The stand support is therefore modular in design, comprising several support modules, each capable of supporting a single rolling stand. A support module of the stand support is to be distinguished from an individual stand support outside of a rolling block assembly. In the context of the present invention, a support module is a part of the stand support of a rolling block.
[0011] In this sense, the receiving modules, as described in the first aspect, are attached to a common lower base frame and a common upper cover frame. The base frame and the cover frame absorb the forces acting on the rolling stands within the receiving modules during operation, in the rolling direction, thus preventing these forces from being transmitted directly to the foundation. This ensures greater stability of the stand support and, consequently, higher precision in the relative position of the rolling stands within the receiving modules. The base frame and the cover frame preferably extend over the entire length of the roll block along the rolling direction, but can also cover only a shorter length, allowing the roll block to have several such base frames and cover frames.
[0012] The mounting modules make it possible to accommodate individual rolling stands in customized mounting modules, thus enabling flexible use of the rolling ingot. Furthermore, the modular design made possible by the mounting modules allows for more cost-effective manufacturing and construction of the rolling ingot.
[0013] A stand support for two or more rolling stands of a roll block arranged one behind the other in a rolling direction of a rolled material, wherein the rolling stands each have more than four side surfaces which together form a circumference of the rolling stand from the perspective of the rolling direction, according to a preferred embodiment has two or more individually supported support modules in a foundation, each of which is designed to receive one of the rolling stands through a lateral opening in such a way that it covers four of the side surfaces and more than half of the circumference of the rolling stand.In this preferred embodiment, the scaffold mounting has a protective flap between all adjacent mounting modules arranged one behind the other on the side of the lateral opening, in order to protect the space between the adjacent mounting modules from rods breaking out of the space or from water escaping from the space and from people reaching into the space.
[0014] The characteristic of the opening being a lateral opening relates to the rolling direction. Viewed along the rolling direction, the receiving modules are thus positioned one behind the other and can each receive the rolling stands from a direction perpendicular to this rolling direction. The rolling stands are all received from the same side of the receiving modules, for example, when they are exchanged for maintenance or replaced by rolling stands with different barrel sizes.
[0015] To allow rolling stands to be inserted laterally into the receiving modules, the receiving modules have an opening on the side, at least temporarily. The stand receiving module is also accessible from this side for replacing the rolling stands. This also means that personnel on this side of the receiving module can reach the rolling stands.
[0016] The receiving modules are designed to accommodate rolling stands with more than four sides each. Preferably, the rolling stands have six sides each, and their outer shape, viewed from the rolling direction, forms a regular hexagon. Alternatively, the receiving modules can also be designed to accommodate rolling stands with four sides each. For secure mounting of the rolling stands, the receiving modules have a shape adapted to the shape of the rolling stands. This means that the shape of the receiving modules is largely a negative form of the outer shape of that part of the rolling stands that is held by the receiving modules.The fact that each of the receiving modules is designed to cover four of the preferably six side faces of the rolling stand means, in particular, that the receiving modules have surfaces against which some of the side faces of the rolling stand partially abut or which enclose some of the side faces, so that the rolling stand is securely and firmly mounted in the receiving module. Further structural measures can also be taken for this purpose, in particular clamping blocks, strips, or anchors. For rolling stands with four side faces, the receiving module can be designed to cover three of the side faces of the rolling stand.
[0017] With a modular design of the rolling mill stand support system, it can be ensured that the space between the support modules is secured. During operation, large masses of rolled material, usually steel, are fed through the rolling mill at high speeds and temperatures. During rolling, a so-called "blockage" can occur, where the rolled material is not properly picked up by a rolling stand and accumulates in front of it. If the rolling mill is not secured, rolled material can quickly break out of the rolling mill uncontrollably, which is, of course, unacceptable from an occupational safety perspective. Furthermore, a significant amount of cooling water escapes into the environment between the rolling stands of a rolling mill and should also be contained.
[0018] This is achieved using a protective flap or flaps, which are arranged on the side of the lateral openings of at least two of the mounting modules and cover the gap. Alternatively, instead of the preferred protective flaps, the gap can also be secured by a fixed cover, or the scaffold mounting can be completely protected behind a protective cover.
[0019] Preferably, each of the receiving modules has a service fluid connection facing the side opening to supply the rolling stand with the service fluid. Examples of service fluids are water, especially cooling water for the rolls, optionally the rollers of a roll guide, or the material being rolled, and compressed air, particularly for sealing the rolling stand. Each receiving module can preferably also have several service fluid connections. If each receiving module has one or more service fluid connections, rolling stands that require or benefit from a substance supplied via the service fluid can be particularly easily and modularly integrated into the rolling block. In this way, for example, it is possible to design uniform connections for the receiving modules so that all rolling stands fit into all receiving modules and can be connected there via the service fluid connections.The operating fluid connections are advantageously oriented towards the side opening, meaning they point in the direction of the opening and are easily accessible from that direction. Particularly preferably, the operating fluid connections are designed such that a suitably configured rolling stand can be directly connected to one or more of the operating fluid connections by sliding it into the receiving module. This is possible, for example, by means of a connection socket oriented towards the side opening, into which a corresponding nozzle on the rolling stand can be inserted when the rolling stand is inserted into the receiving module. However, such an operating fluid connection is not strictly necessary.
[0020] Advantageously, each of the mounting modules has a holder for remote electrical or hydraulic adjustment of the rolling stand. A rolling stand mounted in the module can have adjustable rolls. Adjustable rolls, and in particular a mechanism for adjusting the rolls, have been known in principle for a long time. It is also known to adjust the rolls automatically via remote control. An alternative adjustment method is manual adjustment of the rolls using a hand-operated tool. For remote adjustment, an electrically, hydraulically, or otherwise driven shaft is provided, which applies an adjustment torque to the corresponding adjustment mechanism of the rolling stand via a coupling.
[0021] According to the previously described preferred feature, each receiving module is provided with a holder for remote adjustment of the rolls of the rolling stand. Specifically, the holder can be, for example, a bearing for an adjusting shaft or a coupling, so that the adjusting shaft or coupling is held in the correct position to interact with a rolling stand inserted into the receiving module. For this purpose, the rolling stand can have a coupling that can be coupled to the remote adjustment coupling of the rolling stand. In the preferred embodiment, the holder for remote adjustment of the rolling stand allows for remote adjustment to be prepared or omitted, depending on the design of the stand housing. Therefore, the existence of a holder is not dependent on the design of the rolling stand, but enables particularly versatile use of the stand receiver for various rolling stands with and without remote adjustment.The bracket can also be omitted.
[0022] Advantageously, each of the mounting modules has a bracket for remote electrical or hydraulic adjustment of a roller guide mounted on the rolling stand. Similar to the adjustable rolls of the rolling stand, the rollers of a roller guide mounted on the rolling stand can also be adjustable. Adjustable rollers, like adjustable rolls, have been known for a long time. It is also known to adjust the rollers automatically via remote control. An alternative method of adjusting the rollers is manual adjustment using a hand-operated tool or a spring-loaded bracket, thus preventing external adjustment. For remote adjustment of the roller guide, an electrically, hydraulically, or otherwise driven shaft is provided, which applies an adjusting torque to the corresponding adjustment mechanism of the roller guide via a coupling.
[0023] According to the previously described preferred feature, each receiving module is provided with a bracket for remote adjustment of the roller guide. Specifically, the bracket can be, for example, a bearing for an adjusting shaft or a coupling, so that the adjusting shaft or coupling is held in the correct position to interact with the roller guide of a rolling stand inserted into the receiving module. For this purpose, the roller guide can have a coupling that can be coupled to the remote adjustment coupling. In the preferred embodiment, the bracket for remote adjustment of the roller guide allows for remote adjustment to be prepared or omitted, depending on the design of the stand housing. Therefore, the existence of a bracket is not dependent on the design of the rolling stand and its roller guide, but enables particularly versatile use of the stand receiving module.However, such a bracket can also be dispensed with.
[0024] Preferably, each rolling stand is securely held in the receiving module by clamping or other means, so that forces acting on the rolling stand, particularly those exerted by the rolled material, are transferred to the receiving module. The rolling stand is detachably held in the receiving module, allowing the holding mechanism, especially the clamping mechanism, to be released for replacement. The fixed holding mechanism ensures that the rolling stand is secured within its receiving module.
[0025] This allows forces acting on the rolling stand to be derived and measured independently of forces acting on other rolling stands, enabling improved control or regulation of the rolling process.
[0026] Preferably, each of the receiving modules is mounted at the bottom of the foundation in a torque-free manner, so that it can tilt along the rolling direction, with each receiving module bearing against its own counter-bearing at the top. Particularly preferably, each receiving module, if mounted in the foundation by means of the base frame, is mounted on the base frame in a torque-free manner, so that it can tilt along the rolling direction.
[0027] The receiving module is mounted without torque if, for example, it is mounted with a hinge. It can stand on a hinge, but an arrangement on an edge or similar device that allows tilting along the rolling direction is also possible. Crucially, for torque-free mounting, the receiving module's support in the foundation or on the base frame must not oppose any significant torque to a tilting movement of the receiving module; in other words, no significant force is required to tilt the receiving module along the rolling direction.
[0028] The fact that the receiving module is tiltable along the rolling direction means that it can tilt about an axis that runs perpendicular to the rolling direction and is preferably horizontal. Preferably, the axis about which the receiving module can tilt due to the torque-free bearing is arranged off-center relative to the receiving module. More preferably, this axis is offset downstream from the center of the receiving module along the rolling direction. If the receiving module is mounted torque-free at the bottom, as explained above, the counter bearing at the top results in a stable arrangement. With an off-center arrangement of the axis about which the receiving module can tilt torque-free at the bottom, the receiving module rests against the counter bearing at the top due to a gravity-induced tilting moment of the receiving module.
[0029] The torque-free mounting of the receiving module allows it to be tilted independently of other receiving modules of the stand and to determine the forces acting on the rolling stand along the rolling direction via the counter bearing, without changing the position of the receiving module. This enables more precise processing of the rolled material. The receiving module can also be fixed in the foundation, particularly the base frame, or be movable. Alternatively, the receiving module can be mounted torque-free at the top, allowing it to be tilted along the rolling direction, and resting against a counter bearing at the bottom.
[0030] Preferably, a force measuring device is arranged between the receiving module and the counter bearing so that a force acting on the rolling stand held in the receiving module along the rolling direction can be measured. Suitable force measuring devices include, for example, the devices listed in DE 10 2016 217 202 B4, in particular a piezoelectric measuring device, because a piezoelectric element exhibits both very high measurement sensitivity and very high stiffness, even under high loads. Other force measuring devices are also possible. With a force measuring device, it is possible to determine the force acting on a single rolling stand along the rolling direction. Due to the torque-free lower bearing of the receiving module, a force exerted on the rolling stand along the rolling direction acts as a moment about the axis of the torque-free bearing and thus as a force on the counter bearing.Since each mounting module is independently and torque-free mounted on the stand, the force acting on each individual rolling stand along the rolling direction can be determined. This force can be used to control or regulate the rolling process to achieve a better rolling result. However, a force measuring device can also be dispensed with.
[0031] A limiting element is preferably formed between the receiving module and the counter bearing to protect the force measuring device from overload. This can, for example, be a stop that limits the spring travel of a spring-loaded force measuring device and thus prevents excessive deformation of the force measuring device. However, such a limiting element is not required.
[0032] Advantageously, the counter bearings of the mounting modules are attached to a common cover frame. Similar to the common base frame, the cover frame absorbs the forces acting on the rolling stands held in the mounting modules during operation in the rolling direction, thus preventing these forces from being directly transferred to a ceiling structure. This ensures greater stability of the stand mounting and, consequently, higher precision in the relative position of the rolling stands within the mounting modules. The cover frame preferably extends over the entire length of the roll block along the rolling direction, but can also cover only a shorter length, allowing the roll block to have several such cover frames. Direct attachment of the counter bearings to a ceiling structure is also possible.
[0033] Advantageously, each receiving module has a longitudinal drive with a gripping device, so that the rolling stand can be pushed into and out of the receiving module through the side opening.
[0034] The longitudinal drive can be, for example, a hydraulic cylinder or an electric drive powerful enough to pull a rolling stand into and out of the receiving module. This movement through the side opening allows the rolling stand to be replaced for maintenance or other reasons. Alternatively, a suitably designed external device can be used to insert or remove the rolling stand from the receiving module.
[0035] Hooks, eyes, sliders, or other devices can be used as gripping devices. The specific design of the gripping device can be tailored to the rolling stand intended for the receiving module. It is also conceivable that an adapter for various gripping devices is operatively connected to the longitudinal drive to allow its use with different rolling stands. However, the stand receiver is usually designed for a predefined type and shape of rolling stand, so such an adapter will typically not be necessary.
[0036] Advantageously, two different mounting modules for the rolling stands are arranged alternately in two different configurations. In the case of a three-roll rolling stand, these different configurations can be a Y-arrangement and an anti-Y-arrangement. For rolling stands with more or fewer rolls, corresponding arrangements of the stands can be used, complementing each other to achieve a round rolling result. If the material is not to be rolled round, different arrangements can also be used alternately if this is advantageous for the rolling result. However, this is not mandatory.
[0037] The preferred protective flap is preferably designed to pivot hydraulically or electrically. However, it can also be pivoted manually or removed from and attached to the gap in another way. A hydraulically or electrically pivotable protective flap makes it particularly easy to protect the gap in a controlled, reliable, and documented manner.
[0038] Advantageously, the preferred protective flap has a closable opening to allow brief access to the space between the rollers. This brief access might be necessary, for example, for manual operation of a roller guide. Thus, the protective flap does not need to be completely removed, for example, swung open, to allow brief access to the space, enabling more efficient operation of the roller block. However, such an opening can also be omitted.
[0039] Preferably, a rolling mill is included in each of the receiving modules.
[0040] Further advantages and developments of the invention will result from the following description of the figures and the entirety of the claims. SHORT FIGURE DESCRIPTION
[0041] Fig. 1 shows a perspective side view of a preferred scaffold mount. Fig. 2 schematically shows a preferred mounting arrangement of two mounting modules of a scaffold mount. Fig. 3 schematically shows a preferred mounting module of a scaffold mount. Fig. 4 schematically shows a preferred protective cover of a scaffold mount. WAYS TO IMPLEMENT THE INVENTION
[0042] Fig. 1 Figure 1 shows a perspective side view of a preferred stand mount 10. The stand mount 10 comprises four mounting modules 12 arranged one behind the other along a rolling direction W. Each mounting module 12 serves to mount a rolling stand 14. Between adjacent mounting modules there is a narrow gap 16, which is narrower along the rolling direction W than each of the mounting modules 12.
[0043] The receiving modules 12 are shaped so that they can securely hold rolling stands 14, four of which are in Fig. 1 The rolling stands 14 are shown. They have a base surface oriented perpendicular to the rolling direction W, in the shape of a regular hexagon. The shape of the rolling stand 14 is determined by the stand housing, and rollers 14.1, connections 14.2, recesses 14.3, or the like do not contradict the characteristic that the rolling stand 14 is described as hexagonal.
[0044] Because of the hexagonal shape of the rolling stands 14, the receiving modules 12 have the shape of a partially negative hexagon. The in Fig. 1 The recording modules shown (12) comprise four in Fig. 2 The side surfaces 18 shown are arranged and dimensioned, in particular being of equal length and arranged at an internal angle of 120° to each other, such that they securely enclose the rolling stand 14 with the hexagonal shape described above from above and below and in the rolling direction W on a first side 68. Viewed in the rolling direction W, the receiving modules 12 also have support walls 20 at the front and rear to firmly enclose the rolling stands 14.
[0045] On the side opposite the first side 68 when viewed in the rolling direction W, which is facing the viewer in Fig. 1 All receiving modules 12 have a lateral opening 66 through which the rolling stands 14 can be pushed into the receiving modules 12 along an insertion direction E while standing on one of their side surfaces.
[0046] Along the insertion direction E at the bottom and rear, i.e., on the first side of each of the receiving modules 12, there are also sliding strips 22 on the receiving module 12, on which the rolling stand 14 can be inserted into the receiving module 12 with minimal wear and in a defined position. The sliding strips 22 can also serve as a seal against splashing water.
[0047] A protective flap 24 is formed between all adjacent receiving modules 12, covering the space 16 between the adjacent receiving modules 12. This protects the space 16 from rods breaking out of the space 16 or from water escaping from it, and from people reaching into the space 16.
[0048] The protective flap 24 is pivotable via a hinge 26 located in the upper area between the receiving modules 12. This allows the gap 16 to be covered and uncovered by the protective flap 24, for example, to carry out work in the gap 16 between the receiving modules 12 when rolling is not in progress, but also to facilitate the replacement of the rolling stands 14, in particular the insertion or removal of the rolling stands 14. To allow temporary access to the gap 16, the protective flap 24 has a closable opening, which is located in the Fig. 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the protective cover is provided by a handhole cover 30. Opening the handhole cover 30 is significantly faster and requires less effort than opening the entire protective flap 24, especially if all protective flaps 24 of the scaffold receptacle 10 are opened and closed by a common drive.
[0049] Fig. 2 The figure schematically shows a preferred mounting of two receiving modules 12 of a scaffold mount 10. The two in Fig. 2 The illustrated receiving modules 12 are attached to a common lower base frame 32 and a common upper cover frame 34. The receiving modules 12 are supported in a foundation above the common lower base frame 32. The receiving modules 12 are mounted in a pivot-free position above the base frame 32 in a pivot-axis K at the bottom of the foundation by means of a hinge 36. In other words, the receiving modules 12 are mounted at the bottom such that they are aligned with the rolling direction W, which is shown in the diagram. Fig. 2 the main extension direction of the base frame 32 corresponds to the joint 36 being able to tilt, so that forces acting along the rolling direction W on the receiving module 12 lead to a moment about the tilting axis K of the joint 36.
[0050] The receiving module 12 rests at its upper end against a counter bearing 38 with a stop 40 of the receiving module 12. As in Fig. 2 As can be seen, the joint 36 is located off-center at the bottom along the rolling direction W on the receiving module 12, so that the force of gravity acting on the receiving module 12 creates a tilting moment about the joint 36 inwards. Fig. 2 The tilting moment is induced to the left, i.e., opposite to the rolling direction W. The counter bearing 38 counteracts this tilting moment at the top, so that the receiving module 12 rests securely against the counter bearing 38 with the stop 40. An additional force on the rolling stand 14, which is held in the receiving module 12, superimposes itself on the force with which the receiving module 12 rests against the counter bearing 38 at the top, thus changing the force acting on the counter bearing 38. From this, conclusions can easily be drawn about the forces exerted by the rolling stand 14 on the rolled material, which are valuable for regulating and controlling the rolling process.
[0051] For force measurement, force measuring devices 58, which can be designed as piezoelectric elements, for example, are arranged between the counter bearings 38 and the stops 40 of the receiving modules 12 that are against them.
[0052] In Fig. 2 One of the two illustrated receiving modules 14 is equipped with a rolling stand 12, while the remaining of the two illustrated receiving modules 14 is empty. The empty receiving module 14 illustrates, in addition to the points already mentioned above, Fig. 1 In addition to the elements described, a bracket 42 is provided for an electrical or hydraulic remote adjustment of a roller guide (not shown) attached to the rolling stand 12. Such a roller guide is optional and can also be adjusted remotely, i.e., by motor, or manually, or be designed so that no adjustment is carried out, but rather, for example, a spring continuously exerts a force on the roller in the direction of the rolled material.
[0053] Furthermore, in the empty recording module 12 in Fig. 2 A hook 44 can be identified, with which a rolling stand 14 can be pulled into or pushed out of the receiving module 12. This hook 44 is operatively connected to a longitudinal drive 46, by which the force required for pulling in and pushing out a rolling stand 14 can be provided.
[0054] Fig. 2 Figure 1 shows that the empty receiving module 12 has openings 48 in its lateral surfaces 18. Several openings 48 of this type are provided for drive shafts of the rolls of the rolling stands 14. Through these openings 48, a coupling of a roll shaft can extend from the side of the rolling stand 14 through the receiving module 12 to the outside, where the roll shaft can be coupled to a corresponding drive.
[0055] The receiving module 12 also shows two first operating fluid connections designed as water connections 50. One or more corresponding connections on the rolling stand 14 can be coupled to these water connections 50 by sliding the rolling stand 14 into the receiving module 12. For this purpose, the rolling stand 14 can be provided with a corresponding nozzle that penetrates the water connection 50 of the receiving module, thus creating a watertight connection.
[0056] A second operating fluid connection, designed as an air connection 52, is also shown. The air connection 52, like the water connections 50, is positioned and designed so that it can be coupled to a corresponding connection on the rolling stand 14 by sliding the rolling stand 14 into the receiving module 12.
[0057] Fig. 3 Figure 1 schematically shows a preferred receiving module 12 of a stand mounting 10. This figure indicates a remote adjustment 54 for the rollers of a roller guide attached to the rolling stand, which is held in the remote adjustment bracket 42. Furthermore, Figure 1 shows Fig. 3 also an electrical or hydraulic remote control 56 of the rollers of the rolling stand attached to the receiving module 12, which is attached to the receiving module 12 at an angle from above and allows easy coupling to a corresponding remote control connection of the rolling stand. Fig. 3 shows the also in Fig. 2 illustrated hook 44 and the longitudinal drive 46 connected with the hook 44.
[0058] A comparison of the empty recording module from Fig. 2 and the recording module Fig. 3 Figure 1 shows that the water connections 50, the air connection 52, and the openings 48 for the roller drive are provided in different positions. The receiving modules 12 are configured for two different arrangements: one for the so-called Y-arrangement of the rollers and one for the so-called anti-Y-arrangement of the rollers.
[0059] The modular design of the stand mount 10 makes it extremely flexible to switch between different arrangements by simply positioning suitable mounting modules 12 in the stand mount 10, which can all be mounted in the same way, supplied with the same operating materials, have the same mechanism for pushing in and out of the rolling stands 14 and also enable the same force measurement.
[0060] Fig. 4 schematically shows a preferred protective flap 24 of a scaffold mount 10. Fig. 4 The protective flap 24 is shown in a closed position. The protective flap 24 has the feature already described above with reference to Fig. 1 The explained handhole cover 30 and two windows 60 allow viewing into the space 16 between adjacent receiving modules 12. Furthermore, the protective flap 24 is pivotally mounted at the top in a hinge 26, so that it can be opened and closed. For this purpose, in Fig. 4 A protective flap actuator 62 is shown, in which a hydraulic cylinder applies the force to open and close the protective flap 24. On the side opposite the lateral opening of the receiving module 12, as well as on the upper and lower edges of the space 16, are Fig. 4 Mudguards 64 are shown, which primarily serve to drain splash water in this space 16 in a controlled manner and to reduce contamination of the scaffold mounting 10.
