An apparatus for cleaning cylinders () and/or rolls (), e.g., working rolls () in a rolling stand, which are used for producing a rolled stock () such as strips or slabs, in which a liquid is sprayed onto the cylinders () at high pressure through several nozzles D-Dn, a number of nozzles (D-Dn) are stationary arranged in and/or on a nozzle beam (), at least one on-off valve is associated with each nozzle (D-Dn), and one or several nozzle(s) (D-Dn) are sequentially switched on and off one after another starting from one end of the nozzle beam.

Apparatus for cleaning cylinders or rolls

The invention relates to a method of connecting of strips to an endless strip with a clamping arrangement () with a clamping device (-r,-r) on the inlet side and a clamping device (--) on the outlet side, a cutting arrangement () with an upper cutter () and a lower cutter () and with a joining arrangement, wherein in a first step the clamping devices are opened and two strip ends are introduced, and in a subsequent step in the next step the strip ends are introduced, and in a subsequent step in the next step the strip ends are cut by means of the cutting arrangement, before they are moved into a joining position and are joined there.

Method of connecting strips

The invention relates to a device () for the connecting of strips to an endless strip with a clamping arrangement () with a clamping device (--) on the inlet side and a clamping device (--) on the outlet side, a cutting arrangement () with an upper cutter () and a lower cutter () and with a joining arrangement, in which at least the clamping device (--) on the inlet side and/or the clamping device (--) on the outlet side is constructed as a premountable unit.

Device for the connecting of strips

A transfer car in a conveyance system for metal coils, having a support saddle, a chassis that can be moved along a conveyance path by a drive and a mechanism for raising and lowering the support saddle along a linear vertical guide on a plate-like base frame. A steel slab is used as the plate-like base frame, on which a scissor unit is mounted for the purpose of linear vertical guidance and so as to not take on any lifting forces. Two lifting cylinders are installed some distance apart as the drive and act directly on the support saddle to provide the sole lifting forces to raise and lower the support saddle.

Transport car for metal coils

The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for clamping, cutting, and joining strips to a continuous strip. Said device comprises a clamping device (), a cutting device (), and a joining device (). The clamping device, cutting device, and joining device are kinematically coupled to each other.

Apparatus for the connection of strips

The invention relates to a method for straightening a metal strip () which is guided in the direction of transportation (R) through a straightening machine () and is straightened. In the straightening device (), the metal strip () is impinged upon by a straightening force (F) which is applied by a plurality of straightening rollers () in the direction (N) which is perpendicular to the surface of the metal strip (). According to the invention, prior to the metal strip () entering into the straightening machine (), the thickness (d) of the metal strip () is determined and the position (a) of the straightening rollers () in the direction (N) which is perpendicular to the surface of the metal strip () is taken into account according to the determined thickness (d).

Method for straightening a metal strip and straightening machine

In a process of hot dip coating of metal strips, in particular, of a hot rolled steel strip, in which the metal strip is transformed into a continuous strip in an unwinding station with an adjoining welding machine, and then the continuous strip is subjected to a downstream modifying process including primary and secondary prickling and, in the final treatment step; in the hot dip coating section, guiding the continuous strip through a melt bath, a variable coating process with reduced costs becomes possible when the continuous strip, in a first treatment step, is directly transported into a pickling installation. In a suitable installation for effecting the process, the primary pickling installation is located in the entry section which is separated from the hot dip coating section by an entry accumulator.

Method and installation for hot dip coating metal strips

A horizontal strip accumulator for metal strip includes a looper car which is moveable along a travel path at at least one swivel gate which is moveable, when the looper car is moved, by the looper car between a starting position and an end position. For moving the swivel gate, the looper car acts on an actuating element which is connected with the swivel gate through a four-gear mechanism with two swivels. The swivel gate is rotatably arranged on one swivel and the actuating element is rotatably arranged on the other swivel. The actuating element has spoke-shaped projections and the looper car has counter projections which engage between the spoke-shaped projections.

Horizontal strip accumulator

A vertical strip storage system has a support structure and a storage car connected to the support structure by cables in the fashion of a pulley block so as to be lifted and lowered relative to the support structure. The storage car is provided with a counterweight and with deflection pulleys which deflect and guide an incoming and/or outgoing strip in cooperation with stationary deflection pulleys on the ground. The support structure is a free-standing column without lateral supports and the storage car is a salient vehicle running on the outer surface of the column, wherein the column has an interior and the counterweight is guided in the interior of the column.
