ROLLING MILL MANIPULATOR Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: rolled stock production, namely manipulators of thick sheet rolling mills.

SUBSTANCE: manipulator includes in front or after rolling stand guiding liners arranged at both sides of rolling axis and secured to tie rods with possibility of motion across rolling axis. Liners are secured to tie rods at lateral gap and they are provided with mechanism for sensing efforts acting along liners. Said mechanism is in the form of mounted in liner eccentric pivots with rollers engaging with guides and mounted stationary along motion direction of liners. Eccentricity value of pivots is less than lateral gap of mounting liners in tie rods. Eccentric pivots with rollers are mounted in liner ends distal relative to stand.

EFFECT: enhanced operational reliability of manipulator.
