Abstract
A method for transporting a hot-rolled wire rod comprises changing directions of movements of the wire rod to the left and to the right relative to the center line of a conveyer at an interval of d/3 to 2d of a diameter of a ring of the wire rod and shifting the center of the ring of the wire rod from the center line of the conveyer by a length of 2d/100 to 30d/100 at its maximum. An apparatus for transporting hot-rolled wire rod comprises a conveyer for transporting a hot-rolled wire rod and guide means alternately arranged in an upper portion of the side of the conveyer to change the directions of movements of the wire rod to the left and to the right relative to the center line of the conveyer. A further apparatus for transporting hot-rolled wire rod comprises side walls arranged in zigzags facing each other on the both sides of the conveyer to have the wire rod move in zigzags with the center line of the conveyer as the center and guide members arranged on the side walls arranged toward the center line of the conveyer.
