Roll stand with axially displaceable rolls

摘要

A roll stand for rolled strips of different materials includes rolls which are axially displaceable under load, wherein each displaceable roll has at least one hydrodynamic oil film bearing. a hydraulic unit for effecting the axial displacements is integrated into the hydrodynamic oil film bearing such that the hydraulic unit is adapted to the shape of the hydrodynamic oil film bearing. The diameter of the hydraulic unit is greater than the diameter of the bearing shell of the hydrodynamic oil film bearing. an annular piston has on a circumference thereof a ring which is axially displaceable with the annular piston in a groove of the annular cylinder, wherein annular space portions of the piston are in connection with a control hydraulic system through separate hydraulic connections, so that pressure can be applied to both sides of the ring of the annular piston. each roll has a position indicator connected to a free end of the roll neck of the roll for determining axial position.
