Abstract
A horizontal/vertical roll stand with a pair of work rolls which can be exchangeably mounted with chocks and adjusting spindles in the stand includes a housing which is formed by four posts which extend from the corners of a common base plate, wherein the posts have an essentially rectangular cross-section. A cube-shaped receiving space which is open toward the top and at the sides for a cassette-type roll mounting unit is defined by the base plate and the four posts. During the exchange of the rolls, the roll mounting unit can be pulled out as a structural unit from the receiving space of the stand. Pairs of the posts form guides therebetween. A total of four support plates with a center support member each for four adjusting spindles are releasably fastened to the guides. The adjusting spindles have adjusting nuts on right/left thread portions, wherein pairs of adjusting nuts engage with cylindrically shaped projections into chocks of the rolls and adjust the rolls.
