The invention relates to a roll stand comprising a crown-variable-control (CVC) roll pair, preferably a CVC working roll pair and a back-up roll pair, which comprise a contact area (B cont) in which a horizontally active torque (M) acts that leads to a twisting of the rolls and thus to axial forces in the roll bearings. In order to keep the axial forces in the roll bearings as small as possible, the torque (M) is minimized by an appropriate CVC grinding.

The invention relates to an installation for cold rolling strip-shaped rolling material, with a reversing stand disposed between two reel-up or unreeling coils or reels, and a second reversing stand in the rolling line of the first reversing stand, with both stands capable of being adjusted corresponding to consecutive passes for performing the rolling process, and to a method of cold rolling.

A roll, particularly a back-up roll, for rolling flat material is composed of a rotating roll shell and a unit arranged within the roll shell for influencing the bending stiffness of the roll shell. The unit for influencing the bending stiffness of the roll shell is a friction bearing in the form of a body of rotation. The body of rotation can be adjusted by rotating the body. The body of rotation is shaped in such a way that the load application surface thereof corresponding to the zone of the roll shell to which load is applied is part of the circumferential surface of a rotation-symmetrical body and the edge of this circumferential surface is shaped in such a way that along the circumference of the body of rotation the width and/or position of the load application surface vary.

The invention relates to an installation for cold rolling strip-shaped rolling material, with a reversing stand disposed between two reel-up or unreeling coils or reels, and a second reversing stand in the rolling line of the first reversing stand, with both stands capable of being adjusted corresponding to consecutive passes for performing the rolling process.

A device for influencing the profile of strip rolled in at least one roll stand includes adjusting units, bending units and possibly displacement units for the stand and spray beams adjacent the rolls of the stand for spraying cooling agent and/or lubricating agent onto the rolls, if necessary, in a controlled manner; the device further includes a regulating unit. Additional spray beams are provided adjacent the two end portions of the body of each roll, wherein the effective range of each additional spray beam extends from the respective end of the body of the roll into the area of the strip edge facing this end of the body of the roll.

Device for influencing the profile of rolled strip

The invention relates to an installation for cold rolling strip-shaped rolling material, with a reversing stand disposed between two reel-up or unreeling coils or reels. Approximately 450,000 tons of hot rolled strip can be rolled in the course of one year into cold strips in such single stand reversing trains. In order to be able to roll 700,000 tons of cold strip per year, a second reversing stand in the rolling line of the first reversing stand is provided and both stands can be adjusted corresponding to consecutive passes for performing the rolling process.

A strip storage unit for a continuous operation of rolling mill trains, particularly a loop-forming strip storage unit for sheet metal strips in strip treatment plants. The strip storage unit includes a loop carriage having at least one deflection roller for a strip loop. The loop carriage is movable on guides for changing the length of the loop. Support carriages which are also movable on guides and are provided with at least one support roller each are connected to the loop carriage through traction members, such as, ropes, chains or the like. The storage unit further includes at least one feed roller and a run-out roller for the strip. At least one cam drum is arranged at each support carriage. The traction members travel on the surfaces of the drum. For maintaining an equal distance between the loop carriage and the adjacent support carriage and between the support carriages when the loop carriage is moved by a certain distance, a torque motor acts on each cam drum.

A roll stand has a frame, an upper backup roll and a lower backup roll rotatable in the frame about respective vertically spaced axes, and an upper working roll and a lower working roll flanked by and operatively engaging the respective backup rolls. A workpiece normally passes horizontally through the nip formed by the working rolls. Actuators can urge the backup rolls toward each other with a high force and with a low force. Respective upper and lower drives are connected to the respective backup rolls and energizable for rotating same and thereby pulling the workpiece engaged between the working rolls through the roll stand. A clutch is connected between one of the drives and the respective backup roll and is openable to rotationally disconnect the one drive from its backup roll. A controller is connected to the one drive and the clutch for deenergizing the one drive and opening the clutch for low-force rolling. For high-force rolling the clutch is closed and both drives are energized.
