A roller for in-furnace conveyance () which is provided with a fitting section () in which a fitting hole () of a body section () and a fitting shaft () of a shaft section () are fitted, and which constitutes a single roller by welding of the fitting section, wherein the fitting section has a first fitting section () in which fitting occurs with a prescribed interstice at a position separated from the weld position, and a second fitting section () in which fitting occurs with an interstice larger than that of the first fitting section at a position adjacent to the weld position.

Roller for in-furnace conveyance

The present disclosure relates to a hot rolling apparatus for manufacturing a metal plate by hot-rolling-treating a metal material including copper. The apparatus includes: a rough rolling device for rolling-treating the metal material, which has been heating-treated, a plurality of times with a back-and-forth movement of the metal material, to mold the metal material into a metal plate; a heat retention/application treatment device for retaining heat of or applying heat to the metal plate molded by the rough rolling device at lower temperatures than in the heating treatment, without applying bending; a finish rolling device for further rolling-treating the metal plate that has been heat-treated by the heat retention/application treatment device; a cooling device for cooling the metal plate that has been rolling-treated by the finish rolling device; and a support table for movably supporting the metal plate from below before and after the rough rolling device while the metal material is moved back and forth by the rough rolling device. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to improve the quality of the metal plate manufactured in the hot rolling apparatus, and also to improve the speed of the process required for rolling.

Hot rolling apparatus

A conveying device includes a plurality of conveying rollers supported in parallel at predetermined intervals, and conveys a workpiece to a heat-retaining/heating furnace from a rolling mill by the conveying rollers. The conveying device includes an impact prediction data collecting unit and a control unit. The impact prediction data collecting unit acquires data on the upstream of the heat-retaining/heating furnace. The data is used to predict the magnitude of an impact applied to rollers in the furnace, which are positioned in the heat-retaining/heating furnace, of the conveying rollers by the workpiece. The control unit predicts the magnitude of an impact from the data, which is acquired by the impact prediction data collecting unit, and adjusts the conveying speed of the workpiece in the heat-retaining/heating furnace according to the magnitude of the impact.

Conveying device, hot rolling apparatus, conveying method, and hot rolling method

Each of a pair of rolls has a barrel with different diameters axially of the barrel such that sum of the diameters of the barrels is substantially constant and that each of the rolls is bilaterally symmetrical. The rolls themselves have an ability to control workpiece profile and have at least one substantially parallel center portion.

Rolling mill with laterally different velocities

There are provided an even number of paired roll-shift type rolling mills 12a, 12b and a controller 16 for controlling the rolling mills 12a, 12b. Each of upper and lower work rolls 13 of each of the roll-shift type rolling mills has a predetermined crown curve and has a roll shifting mechanism 14 for axially shifting the upper and lower work rolls relative to each other. The controller 16 determines a shift amount of each rolling mill in order to obtain a predetermined cross section shape of a steel plate, shifts the work rolls of the rolling mill on the upstream side paired every rolling coil to thereby disperse wear on the roll surface, and moves the work rolls of the rolling mill on the downstream side of the pair in a predetermined direction by the same distance, thereby canceling the change in the cross section shape of the plate caused by the shifting operation for the wear dispersion.
