Single strand block-type rolling mill.

摘要

A single strand block-type rolling mill has pairs of oppositely inclined work rolls (16) arranged successively along a mill pass line (18) to roll rod and bar products in a twist-free manner. A planar base structure extends in parallel relationship between the mill pass line. A plurality of housings (32) are arranged seriatim along the mill pass line. The housings are secured to the base structure and have mutually overlapping portions secured to one another. Each housing includes intermediate drive components for driving a pair of roll shafts (40) carrying one of the work roll pairs, with the intermediate drive components being mechanically coupled to each other and to a common mill drive.
