Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for adjusting an upsetting roller of an upsetting stand.
  • Upsetting stands are known from the prior art, with which an upsetting roller can be positioned from the side or pressed laterally against the rolling stock, for example when rolling heavy plates onto the rolling stock.
  • Such upsetting structures are made, for example EP 2 265 395 B1 , EP 2 411 165 B1 or JP 01075101 A known that have one or two positions on each side.
  • These upsetting stands comprise a bulky cassette for storing the upsetting roller, which takes up a large installation space and still permits play against the roller and employment in the rolling operation.
  • the preamble of claim 1 is based on the JP S61 56701 A .
  • a compression frame is known in which a reduction in play between the components of the compression frame is achieved in that a piston-cylinder unit presses a cassette in which the compression roller is accommodated in the direction of the rolling stock, so-called balancing cylinders pushing the cassette into the Pull in the opposite direction. Joints between the components of this upsetting stand are thus made practically free of play, which results in a higher precision for positioning the upsetting roller against the rolling stock.
  • the upsetting frame according to EP 166 981 B1 is subject to the disadvantage that a piston of the piston-cylinder unit, which presses the cassette and the compression roller mounted therein in the direction of the rolling stock, is spaced from the balancing cylinders articulated thereon.
  • a piston of the piston-cylinder unit which presses the cassette and the compression roller mounted therein in the direction of the rolling stock.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device for placing an upsetting roller of an upsetting stand, in which simple translational guiding of the upsetting roller is ensured without the risk of tilting or the like.
  • An apparatus is used to set up an upsetting roller of an upsetting stand, and comprises an upsetting stand, to which at least one balancing cylinder is attached, and a balancing crossbar with a drive side opposite the upsetting stand and a working side opposite the driving side, with the balancing crossbar on its working side a bearing device for the upsetting roller can be attached and on the drive side at least one articulation is provided through which the balancing cylinder is operatively connected to the balancing crossbar.
  • the device further comprises at least one adjustment cylinder which is attached to the upsetting stand and can be operatively connected to the bearing device in the direction of a rolling stock in order to set the upsetting roller against the rolling stock, the pressure force generated by the adjustment cylinder acting on the bearing device along an effective axis , which either intersects the at least one linkage through which the balancing cylinder is operatively connected to the balancing crossbar, or runs directly adjacent to this linkage.
  • the invention is based on the essential finding that an upsetting roller can be pressed against a rolling stock when the at least one positioning cylinder is actuated, the bearing device in which the upsetting roller is accommodated being pulled in the opposite direction by means of the at least one balancing cylinder in order to thereby to achieve a clearance of the separating joints present between the components of the device.
  • two balancing cylinders can be attached to the upsetting stand, the adjustment cylinder then being arranged between the balancing cylinders.
  • Actuators of the respective balancing cylinders are articulated on the drive side of the balancing crossbar, with an additional element being arranged between the upsetting stand and the balancing crossbar, with which an actuating member of the adjusting cylinder can be operatively connected.
  • the additional element has two elongate pressure bolts opposite to the drive side of the balancing cross-beam, which with its longitudinal axis define the effective axis along which the compressive force is exerted on the bearing device.
  • the pressure bolts pass through the balancing crossbar, so that the pressure force of the positioning cylinder is branched onto the two pressure bolts and can be transmitted to the bearing device for the upsetting roller on the working side of the balancing crossbar.
  • the free end faces on the working side of the balancing crossbar can come into contact with the bearing device.
  • a pressure pin by means of which a pressure force is applied to the bearing device or the compression roller mounted thereon, it is to be understood that such a pressure pin can have a suitable cross section, e.g. circular, square, rectangular, triangular or polygonal.
  • a pressure pin with a circular cross section is designed in the form of a cylinder.
  • the cross-section of the pressure pin is selected in such a way that, on the one hand, sufficient stability against buckling is ensured, and, on the other hand, if necessary, the pressure pin can be guided through a slide bearing.
  • the contact point between the actuating member of the adjustment cylinder and the additional element can be curved.
  • this contact point can be designed such that a point contact or a surface contact is formed. This ensures a precise transmission of force between the positioning cylinder and the additional element - in the direction of the rolling stock - without the risk of canting or the like.
  • the actuating member of the adjustment cylinder can be connected to the additional element by a cylinder head, so that lateral forces which can act on the pressure bolts and / or the additional element, in particular when tapping transversely to the active axis, are reduced or not transmitted to the adjustment cylinder .
  • Such equipment of the adjustment cylinder with a cylinder head can advantageously prevent damage to the expensive adjustment cylinder, in particular when tapping.
  • the cylinder head is not necessarily cylindrical, but essentially has the property of keeping any lateral forces that may occur that act transversely to the axis of action of the adjusting cylinder away from the adjusting cylinder.
  • the actuating member of the adjustment cylinder can be connected in an articulated manner to the additional element. This articulated connection ensures that the pressure force generated by the adjustment cylinder always only along the pressure bolts attached to the additional element acts on the axis of action, even if the actuator of the adjustment cylinder should not be exactly parallel to the axis of action.
  • two adjustment cylinders can be attached to the upsetting stand, a balancing cylinder being attached between the adjustment cylinders.
  • the adjustment cylinders are connected with elongated pressure bolts which, with their longitudinal axis, define the effective axis along which the compressive force is exerted on the bearing device for the upsetting roller.
  • the pressure bolts penetrate the balancing crossbar so that the pressure force of the respective adjustment cylinder on the working side of the balancing crossbar can be transmitted to the bearing device for the upsetting roller.
  • An additional element is arranged between the upsetting stand and the balancing crossbar, to which an actuating member of the balancing cylinder is connected, the additional element being connected to the drive side of the balancing crossbar by two articulations.
  • the restoring force generated by the balancing cylinder is transferred to the balancing crossbar via the additional element.
  • the fact that the articulations through which the additional element is connected to the drive side of the balancing crosshead either overlaps the active axis or runs directly adjacent to the active axis ensures that the interplay of tensile and compressive forces acting on the bearing device ensures that at best, no tilting moment is generated and thereby jamming or the like is avoided.
  • balancing cylinder and the adjustment cylinder do not necessarily have to be in the form of a cylinder, but rather are to be understood as a respective actuating element with which a suitable compressive force or tensile force can be generated.
  • the balancing cylinder or the adjustment cylinder can be driven hydraulically or electrically.
  • the adjustment cylinder may be pointed out separately that, to simplify it, only one operation can be provided, namely in the direction of a rolling stock, in order to press the upsetting roller against the rolling stock.
  • a contact surface can be formed on the bearing device for the upsetting roller, with which the end face of a pressure bolt can be brought into contact system when the assigned adjustment cylinder is actuated.
  • This contact surface can preferably be suitably hardened so that premature wear of this contact surface as a result of frequent contact with the end face of the pressure bolt is avoided.
  • the contact point between the end face of a pressure bolt and the contact surface of the bearing device can be curved, for example in such a way that a point contact or a surface contact forms at this contact point.
  • the arched configuration of the said contact point can be achieved in that the end face of a pressure bolt and / or the associated contact surface on the bearing device are each convex.
  • the surfaces of the bodies which come into contact with one another can each be curved.
  • the bodies that are in contact with one another at the contact point arrive, one body has a convex surface, the other body has a concave surface.
  • the present invention is characterized by a "slim" and modular design.
  • the interaction of the mechanical components ensures a complete balancing of the device according to the invention, with the elimination of all play in parting lines or the like.
  • the device according to the present invention can be used in all known compression frame types, regardless of the drive system (above or below the hallway).
  • an area of application for upsetting e.g. can be enlarged even in confined spaces.
  • maintenance and / or replacement of its components are considerably simplified in the device according to the invention.
  • the displacement sensor is in signal connection with an evaluation device, by means of which the current position of the compression roller can then be determined.
  • a control device can be provided which is in signal connection with the evaluation device. Accordingly, a measurement signal from the displacement sensor can be processed in the control device.
  • the control device By means of the control device, the balancing cylinder and / or the adjustment cylinder can be controlled as a function of a measurement signal from the displacement sensor.
  • the actuation of the balancing cylinder and / or adjustment cylinder can also take place in a controlled manner, the control device for the balancing cylinder and the adjustment cylinder being equipped with a control circuit for this purpose.
  • the respectively current positions of the actuating members of the balancing cylinder and of the adjusting cylinder can be monitored by displacement sensors.
  • such displacement transducers are arranged adjacent to the balancing cylinder and the adjustment cylinder. Since these displacement transducers are connected to the evaluation device for signaling purposes, a respective current position of an actuating element of the balancing cylinder or of the positioning cylinder can then be determined by the evaluation device.
  • the actuation of the balancing cylinder and / or the adjustment cylinder takes place in dependence on a previously determined position by their actuators, possibly taking into account associated target positions.
  • the balancing cylinder and / or the adjustment cylinder can also be controlled in a controlled manner, namely by the control device, which for this purpose comprises a control loop.

  • a bearing device 20 is preferably fastened in a form-fitting manner, the bearing device 20 comprising an upper compression roll chock 21 and a lower compression roll chock 22.

As a result, the additional element 30, and in connection therewith also the two pressure bolts 32, are moved in the same direction, the free end faces of the pressure bolts 32 then coming into contact with the upsetting roller chocks 21, 22. With their longitudinal axis, the pressure bolts 32 each define an active axis 28, along which the pressure force generated by the positioning cylinder 26 is transmitted to the bearing device 20 and thus to the upsetting roller 10 stored therein.

  • the upsetting roller 10 is positioned against a rolling stock (not shown) only by actuating the adjustment cylinder 26, the pressure bolts 32, which extend through the through holes 34 in the balancing cross member 16 in the direction of the bearing device 20 , press against the upsetting roller chocks 21, 22.
  • the balancing cylinders 14 exert a tensile force which acts on the balancing crossbar 16 via the articulations 24 in order to bring about freedom from play between the components of the device 1 as a result.
  • the adjustment cylinder 26 can be designed such that its actuating member 27 only exerts a force in one direction, namely in the plane of the drawing Fig. 1 left to right.
  • a reset of the adjustment cylinder 26 in the opposite direction, ie in the plane of the drawing Fig. 1 from right to left, can then take place automatically when the positioning cylinder 26 is set without power and the balancing cylinders 14 continue to exert a tensile force on the balancing traverse 16.
