STEM COIL PALLET FOR MAKING HALF WEIGHT COILS

摘要

In a rolling mill, a reforming chamber is positioned to receive rings of hot rolled steel rod descending along a vertical path from the delivery end of a conveyor onto a support on an underlying carrier. The carrier has an upstanding stem around which the ring s accumulate to form a cylindrical coil. First, interceptor elements operate above the carrier to interrupt the descent of rings, and second interceptor elements supported on the carrier beneath t he first interceptor elements operate to subdivide the coil being formed around the stem into upp er and lower segments, with a gap therebetween occupied by the second intercepting elemen ts.
