<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seal end plate preventing leakage from occurring. <P>SOLUTION: A seal end plate is configured and dimensioned to surround the neck of a horizontal roll2 in a rolling mill and comprizes a circular plate body 45 fixed to a chock 18 at a location surrounding a flexible neck seal 28. The plate body 45 has shoulders 48a, 48b extending axially from its outboard side and a rigid flange 46 extending radially from the shoulders. At least one recess is positioned at a juncture between the shoulders and the rigid flange 46. A drainage passageway leads from the recess to an oil well on the outboard side of the plate body 45. The drainage passageway is located in a zone angularly spaced from horizontal and vertical reference planes bisecting the seal end plate. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
