A method operating a pickling installation for pickling rolled strips comprises several consecutively disposed pickling basins filled with a pickling agent containing acid, through which the strip 4 is passed. A pickling agent containing acid is injected through injection nozzles disposed at least on the sides of the basin. A flexible adaptation to the respective pickling task with the aim of a reduced pickling time period is made possible if the nozzle injections on the sides are actuated variably. The pickling installation is provided for this purpose on both sides of the plurality of the basins, with injection nozzles above and below the strip traveling plane and upstream or downstream of base slide pads located in the basin.

Pickling installation and method for operating this pickling installation

The rolling mill or roll stand which makes a rolled product, particularly a rolled strip or strip, comprises a pair of working rolls, which if necessary are supported on a pair of supporting rolls or on a pair of the supporting rolls and intermediate rolls, and in which the working rolls and/or the supporting rolls and/or the intermediate rolls are axially slidable relative to each other. Each of the rolls of at least one of the pairs of rolls is provided with a curved contour extending to the roll body ends. These curved contours, sometimes on opposite sides, extend over only a portion of the rolled product width. The curved contour extends over the entire roll body length of each roll and has a shape such that both roll body contours entirely compliment themselves in a certain relative axial position. The working or intermediate rolls have the curve contours tapered to one of the roll body ends and widened toward the other of the roll body ends and are arranged slidable in opposite axial directions so that each of the tapered ends of the working rolls or intermediate rolls between a rolled product edge and the associated end of a supporting roll advantageously is held and aligned with each edge of the rolled product.

Rolling mill stand, especially for rolling strip

A rolling stand comprises a housing defining a pair of parallel and spaced inner axes and a pair of parallel and spaced outer axes flanking the inner axes and defining therewith a plane. Respective inner rolls are journaled in the housing at the inner axes and have bodies axially symmetrical about the respective axes and having centered on the respective axes roll-body surfaces of noncylindrical shape and each formed by rotation of a continuously curved generatrix about the respective axis. One of the inner rolls is displaceable axially relative to the other inner roll from an end position to another position. The inner-roll surfaces are spaced in the plane in the other position at a uniform distance and in the plane in the end position at a nonuniform distance. Respective outer rolls journaled in the housing at the outer axes bear toward each other on the respective inner rolls. The outer rolls have roll bodies axially symmetrical about the respective axes and having centered on the respective axes roll-body surfaces of noncylindrical shape complementary to that of the respective inner roll. At least one of the rolls of one of the pairs can be displaced axially relative to one of the rolls of the other pair.

Roll stand with noncylindrical rolls

A rolling stand has a conventional housing defining a pair of parallel and spaced axes defining a plane. Respective rolls have roll ends journaled in the housing at the axes and roll bodies axially symmetrical about the respective axes and having centered on the respective axes complementary roll-body surfaces of noncylindrical shape and each formed by rotation of a continuously curved generatrix about the respective axis. One of these contoured rolls is displaceable axially relative to the other roll from an end position to another position, and the roll-body surfaces form at the plane in the other position a uniform nip and in the end position a nonuniform nip. This system is set up to be able to displace one of the rolls axially relative to the other of the rolls between the end position and the other position. These contoured rolls may themselves define the nip, or may engage and deform other rolls that define it.
