Abstract

The invention relates to a device (1) and a method for convectively cooling hot steel products, in particular hot rolled products (5) in a rolling mill. The device (1) comprises at least one cooling bed which comprises at least one first and at least one second vertically extending cooling bed plane (2, 3), wherein the cooling bed planes (2, 3) are formed by at least one transport device which has at least one vertical conveyor means (4) that is designed to receive a rolled product (5) from a first horizontal conveyor means (6), raise the rolled product via a first vertical conveyor section, and deposit the rolled product on a second horizontal conveyor means (4) via a second vertical conveyor section. The circulating transport device is arranged in a substantially closed housing (7) which comprises means for producing a flow of air and / or gas, as a cooling medium, through the volume enclosed by the housing (7) and means for recovering energy from the air flow and / or gas flow which is guided through the housing and which is loaded with heat of the rolled product.
