APPARATUS FOR REDUCING PARTIAL LOAD TO SLEWING BEARINGS OF LADLE TURRET

摘要

PURPOSE: An apparatus for reducing partial load to slewing bearings of ladle turret is provided to prevent partial wear or damage of the slewing bearings to use the slewing bearings semipermanently by solving load partiality phenomena generated on the slewing bearings due to weight unbalance between two ladles mounted on the ladle turret. CONSTITUTION: The apparatus comprises a roller part(10) comprising a roller(7) for supporting guide rails(5) fixed to a lower surface of rotation main body(120) of the ladle turret to sustain lopsided load amount applied to rotation bearing(130), wherein the roller part is mounted on base main body(110) of the ladle turret; an induction part comprising a load cell for sensing load amount applied to the roller part; a hydraulic part(30) comprising a hydraulic cylinder(32) for lifting and lowering the roller part according to the load amount sensed in the induction part; and an operation part(50) for controlling the hydraulic part by receiving load values of two ladles fixed to the ladle turret and the load values of the roller part obtained by the induction part, wherein lopsided load applied to the rotation bearing is reduced while ladle containing molten steel is being moved from a molten steel receiving side to a mold side.
