ROLLING MILL TRAIN

摘要

A plurality of nonreversible two-high rolling mill stands define a plurality of pass groove lines disposed one beside the other. A first roller bed unit precedes said rolling mill stands. A second roller bed unit succeeds said rolling mill stands. An additional roller bed unit extends under said rolling mill stands between said first and second roller bed units and is operable to return stock from said second roller bed unit to said first roller bed unit. Each of said first and second roller bed units comprises a plurality of roller bed sections disposed one beside the other, and guide means laterally defining guide paths on said roller bed sections. At least two of said roller bed sections of each of said first and second roller bed units are reversible and adapted to be lowered to the level of said additional roller bed unit. Each of said first and second roller bed units is provided with deflecting means, which are adapted to deflect stock onto a desired one of said reversible roller bed sections of the respective roller bed unit.
