Water cooling device for wire

摘要

A water cooling device for a controlled cooling of wire, small sections, and ribbed concrete wire guided along a wire rod guiding line out of the rolling heat has a support frame that is parallel-slidable or rotatable. Parallel, adjacently arranged cooling water pipelines are provided each having a different inner diameter and mounted on the support frame. Each cooling water pipeline has arranged thereat water boxes. The cooling water pipelines have cooling water pipes having an inner pipe diameter matching the inner diameter of the correlated cooling water pipeline. The cooling water pipes are arranged in the water boxes. Each cooling water pipeline has guide grooves positioned between the water boxes for connecting the cooling water pipes of each cooling water pipeline with one another. The cooling water pipelines are configured such that, by parallel-sliding or rotation of the support frame in a direction perpendicular to the wire rod guiding line, each cooling water pipeline is positionable in the wire rod guiding line so that the wire rod is guidable in all of the cooling wire pipes.
