Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum Blankschleifen von verzundertem Warmband oder dessen freien Enden in einer Bandanlage insbesondere in Vorbereitung einer Verbindung durch Schweißen.The invention relates to a device for bright grinding of scaled Hot strip or its free ends in a strip system, especially in preparation a connection by welding.

Beim Schweißen von verzundertem Warmband, insbesondere in einem Bereich geringer Banddicke, beispielsweise kleiner 1,2 mm, ist dieser Schweißprozeß mit einer Abbrenn-Stumpf-Schweißmaschine nicht mehr möglich. Hier kann nur mit einer Laserschweißmaschine gearbeitet werden.When welding scaled hot strip, especially in one area This welding process is also of small thickness, for example less than 1.2 mm a flash butt welding machine is no longer possible. Here can only with a laser welding machine.

Eine Alternative zum Schweißen von verzundertem Band besteht darin, daß das Band vor dem Schweißen metallisch blank gereinigt wird. Hierfür gibt es bereits die Möglichkeit, auf der Schweißmaschine eine Schleifeinrichtung zu installieren, die mit einem Schleifkopf, oder mit einem Fräser arbeitet. Falls eine solche Installation nicht möglich ist, muß eine separate Schleifeinrichtung in die Bandlinie integriert werden.An alternative to welding scaled tape is that Band is cleaned bright metallic before welding. For this there are already the possibility of installing a grinding device on the welding machine, that works with a grinding head, or with a milling cutter. If such an installation is not possible, a separate grinding device must be integrated in the belt line become.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Einrichtung zum Blankschleifen von verzundertem Warmband anzugeben, welche den Schleifprozeß des verzunderten Bandes in möglichst kurzer Zeit durchführt, um erforderliche Stillstandszeiten des Bandes im Einlaufteil einer kontinuierlich arbeitenden Bandanlage möglichst weitgehend zu kürzen. Je weniger Zeit benötigt wird, desto kleiner kann ein Zwischenspeicher für das Band ausgelegt werden. The invention has for its object a device for bright grinding of scaled hot strip, which indicate the grinding process of the scaled Tape in the shortest possible time to the required downtimes of the belt in the inlet section of a continuously operating belt system if possible largely cut. The less time it takes, the smaller one can Buffer for the tape can be designed.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird mit der Erfindung bei einer Einrichtung der im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 genannten Art mit der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, daß die Schleifeinrichtung mit zwei parallel geführten Endlosschleifbändem ausgestattet ist, von welchen das eine Endlosschleifband mit der Bandoberseite, und zugleich das andere Endlosschleifband mit der Bandunterseite zum Schleifen in Arbeitskontakt bringbar ist.To solve the problem with the invention in a device in the preamble of type mentioned with the invention proposed that the Grinding device equipped with two parallel grinding belts is one of which is an endless sanding belt with the belt top, and at the same time the other endless sanding belt with the underside of the belt for sanding in working contact is feasible.

Eine Ausgestaltung der Schleifeinrichtung sieht vor, daß jedes Schleifband über eine dieses antreibbare Rollenbank gespannt ist.An embodiment of the grinding device provides that each grinding belt over one of these drivable roller banks is excited.

Dabei ist die Schleifeinrichtung derart ausgebildet, daß jede Rollenbank zum Bandschleifen an eine Fläche der Bandoberseite bzw. der Bandunterseite des Warmbandes bei dessen Stillstand mit Schleifkraft anlegbar ist.The grinding device is designed such that each roller bank for Belt grinding on a surface of the upper or lower side of the belt Hot strip can be applied with grinding force at standstill.

Mit Vorteil wird durch das gleichzeitige Schleifen des Warmbandes mittels Endlosschleifbändem von beiden Seiten, d. h. der Bandoberseite und gleichzeitig der Bandunterseite, der Schleifprozeß wesentlich beschleunigt und mit zufriedenstellenden Ergebnis in kurzer Zeit durchgeführt.The simultaneous grinding of the hot strip using endless grinding belts is advantageous from both sides, i.e. H. the band top and at the same time the Underside of the belt, the grinding process is significantly accelerated and satisfactory Result done in a short time.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Schleifeinrichtung sieht vor, daß die Rollenbänke über Führungen miteinander abstandsveränderlich derart verbunden sind, daß ihre Unterstützungsrollen einander gegenüberstehen.Another embodiment of the grinding device provides that the roller banks are connected to one another in a variable manner via guides in such a way that their support roles face each other.

Damit wird verhindert, daß jeder Rolle eine Gegenkraft entgegengesetzt wird und es wird erreicht, daß das Band gleichzeitig von beiden Seiten geschliffen werden kann, ohne daß die Rollen bleibende Verformungen am Band erzeugen. This prevents a counterforce from being opposed to each roller and it is achieved that the belt is ground from both sides at the same time can, without the rollers producing permanent deformations on the belt.

Dabei ist die Schleifeinrichtung quer zur Bandlaufrichtung ausgerichtet. Die Rollenbänke sind über Führungen miteinander verbunden, so daß die Unterstützungsrollen exakt einander gegenüberstehen.The grinding device is aligned transversely to the belt running direction. The roller banks are connected to each other via guides, so that the support roles face each other exactly.

Um bei dieser Anordnung alle Bereiche des Bandes gleichmäßig schleifen zu können, wird die Anordnung der Rollenbänke quer zur Laufrichtung des Warmbandes um eine Strecke entsprechend wenigstens dem Abstand zweier benachbarter Rollen hin- und herfahrbar ausgebildet.To grind all areas of the belt evenly with this arrangement can, the arrangement of the roller banks is transverse to the running direction of the hot strip by a distance corresponding to at least the distance between two neighboring ones Rollers trained back and forth.

Eine Ausgestaltung der Schleifeinrichtung sieht vor, daß die Enden der Rollenbänke über Führungen miteinander abstandsveränderlich verbunden sind, so daß sich zwischen den Rollenbänken ein länglich-rechteckiger Schleifraum ergibt, was dazu führt, daß das zu schleifende Band durch diesen geschlossenen Schleifraum ein- und hindurchgeführt werden muß. Falls dies aus arbeitstechnischen Gründen als nachteilig empfunden wird, sieht die Erfindung in einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Schleifeinrichtung vor, daß sie in Form an der Vorderseite offenen Gabel mit zwei im parallelen Abstand abstandsveränderlichen Zinken ausgebildet ist, von welchen jeder mit einer ein Endlosschleifband aufweisenden Rollenbank und vorzugsweise mit einer Bandklemmeinrichtung sowie mit Mitteln zur gegenseitigen Abstandseinstellung ausgestattet ist.An embodiment of the grinding device provides that the ends of the roller banks are connected to one another in a variable manner via guides, so that there is an elongated rectangular grinding space between the roller banks, what causes the belt to be ground through this closed grinding space must be introduced and passed through. If this is for technical reasons Is perceived as disadvantageous, the invention sees in a further embodiment the grinder that they are in the open fork shape with two spaced-apart tines formed in parallel distance from which each with a roller bank having an endless grinding belt and preferably with a band clamp and with means for mutual Distance adjustment is equipped.

Die in den Figuren 1 und 2 gezeigte Schleifeinrichtung nach der Erfindung ist einmal in Durchlaufposition (Figur 1) und in Arbeitsposition (Figur 2) dargestellt. The grinding device according to the invention shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is unique shown in the continuous position (Figure 1) and in the working position (Figure 2).

Die Schleifeinrichtung ist mit zwei parallel geführten Endlosschleifbändem 4 bzw. 5 ausgestattet, von welchen das eine Endlosschleifband 4 mit der Bandoberseite 6, und zugleich das andere Endlosschleifband 5 mit der Bandunterseite 7 zum Schleifen in Arbeitskontakt bringbar ist. Jedes Schleifband 4, 5 ist über eine dieses antreibbare Rollenbank 8, 9 gespannt. Dabei ist jede Rollenbank 8, 9 zum Bandschleifen an eine Fläche der Bandoberseite 6 bzw. der Bandunterseite 7 des Warmbandes 1 bei dessen Stillstand mit Schleifkraft anlegbar. Das Endlosschleifband ist über jeweils eine Rollenbank 8, 9 gespannt, bei welcher mindestens eine Rolle 12 bzw. 13, bevorzugt die erste oder letzte Rolle, angetrieben ist.The grinding device is equipped with two endless grinding belts 4 or 5 equipped, of which the one endless sanding belt 4 with the top of the belt 6, and at the same time the other endless sanding belt 5 with the belt underside 7 for Grinding can be brought into working contact. Each grinding belt 4, 5 is one of these drivable roller bank 8, 9 tensioned. Each roller bank 8, 9 is for belt grinding to a surface of the upper band 6 or the lower band 7 of the Hot strip 1 can be applied with grinding force when it stops. The endless sanding belt is stretched over a roller bank 8, 9, in which at least one Roller 12 or 13, preferably the first or last roller, is driven.

Die Unterstützungsrollen 12, 13 zweier Rollenbänke 8, 9 sind in Rahmen 32 gelagert und werden zum Schleifen gemäß Darstellung in Figur 2 gegen das angehaltene Band angelegt. Dabei ist die Schleifeinrichtung quer zur Bandlaufrichtung 14 ausgerichtet.The support rollers 12, 13 of two roller banks 8, 9 are mounted in frame 32 and are used for grinding as shown in Figure 2 against the stopped Tape put on. The grinding device is transverse to the belt running direction 14 aligned.

Um den Andrückrollen eine zum Schleifen erforderliche Gegenkraft entgegenzusetzen und das Band von beiden Seiten gleichzeitig schleifen zu können, wird die gleiche Einheit einer Rollenbank noch einmal an der Gegenseite angesetzt. Damit jedoch die Rollen 12, 13 keine bleibenden Verformungen des Bandes erzeugen, sind die Rollenbänke 8, 9 über Führungen 10, 11 derart miteinander verbunden, daß sie sich einander gegenüberstehen.To oppose the pressure rollers with a counterforce required for grinding and being able to grind the belt from both sides at the same time will the same unit of a roller bank is attached to the opposite side. In order to however, the rollers 12, 13 do not produce any permanent deformation of the belt, the roller banks 8, 9 are connected to one another via guides 10, 11, that they face each other.

Um alle Bereiche des Bandes 1 gleichmäßig schleifen zu können, wird die vorgenannte Anordnung der Schleifeinrichtung um etwas mehr als den Abstand der Stütztrollen, das heißt um den Bereich 15 hin und her verfahren.In order to be able to grind all areas of the belt 1 evenly, the aforementioned is Arrangement of the grinding device by a little more than the distance of the Support rollers, that is to say move back and forth around area 15.

Weiterhin ist die Schleifeinrichtung durch je eine Bandklemmeinrichtung 19 bzw. 20 ergänzt, wie dies in den Figuren 3 und 4 gezeigt ist. Die Bandklemmeinrichtungen 19, 20 halten das Band 1 in der Schleifeinrichtung in stabiler Position. Furthermore, the grinding device is each by a belt clamping device 19 or 20 supplements, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. The band clamps 19, 20 hold the belt 1 in the grinding device in a stable position.

Wie aus den Figuren 5 und 6 ersichtlich ist, kann die Schleifeinrichtung in einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung in Form einer an der Vorderseite offenen Gabel 16 mit zwei im parallelen Abstand abstandsveränderlichen Zinken 17, 18 ausgebildet sein, von welchen jeder mit einer ein Endlosschleifband 4, 5 aufweisenden Rollenbank 8, 9, und vorzugsweise mit einer Bandklemmeinrichtung 19, 20 sowie mit Mitteln 21, 22 zur gegenseitigen Abstandseinstellung ausgestattet ist.As can be seen from FIGS. 5 and 6, the grinding device can be in one preferred embodiment in the form of a fork 16 open at the front two tines 17, 18 which are variable at a distance from one another are formed be, each of which has a roll bank having an endless grinding belt 4, 5 8, 9, and preferably with a band clamping device 19, 20 and with Means 21, 22 is equipped for mutual distance adjustment.

In den Figuren 5 und 6 ist gezeigt, daß beidseits neben jeder Rollenbank 8, 9 Bandklemmeinrichtungen 19, 20 zwecks Stabilisierung des Bandes 1 angeordnet sind.FIGS. 5 and 6 show that next to each roller bank 8, 9 on both sides Belt clamping devices 19, 20 are arranged for the purpose of stabilizing the belt 1 are.

In der Figur 7 ist nach Art eines Stammbaumes eine Bandanlage 24 mit zwei von Abrollhaspeln 30, 31 abrollbaren Warmbändem 1, 1' gezeigt, die über Umlenkrollen an einer Stelle 25 zusammengeführt werden. Dabei ist jeweils eine Schleifstation 29, 29' in geringem Abstand hinter einer Teilschere 23, 23' im Einlauf zu der Bandanlage 24 angeordnet, und eine Schleifstation 28 ist in vergleichsweise geringem Abstand hinter der Stelle 25 der Zusammenführung zweier Einlaufbandebenen 26, 27 angeordnet.In FIG. 7, a band system 24 with two of Roll-off reels 30, 31 rollable hot strips 1, 1 'shown, which have deflection rollers be brought together at a point 25. There is one grinding station each 29, 29 'at a short distance behind a pair of scissors 23, 23' in the inlet to the Belt system 24 arranged, and a grinding station 28 is comparatively small Distance behind the point 25 of merging two infeed conveyor levels 26, 27 arranged.

Da die erste Schleifstation 29 direkt hinter der Teilschere 23 angeordnet ist, kann die nach dem Schleifprozeß gereinigte Stelle direkt in die Schere zurückgefahren werden. Danach erfolgt der Teilschnitt. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß das Band im ungeteilten Zustand geschliffen wird und daher beim Schleifen eine außerordentlich gute Stabilität aufweist.Since the first grinding station 29 is arranged directly behind the shear 23, it can the point cleaned after the grinding process is returned directly to the scissors become. Then the partial cut is made. This has the advantage that the tape in the undivided Condition is sanded and therefore an extraordinary when sanding has good stability.

Die andere Positionierungsmöglichkeit besteht darin, daß eine Schleifeinrichtung 28 direkt nach der Zusammenführung der beiden Einlaufbandebenen 25 angeordnet sein kann. Hier kann das Bandende 2 und der neue Bandanfang 3 in der Schleifeinrichtung positioniert und gleichzeitig geschliffen werden, wie dies aus der Figur 8 hervorgeht. The other positioning option is that a grinding device 28 arranged immediately after the merging of the two conveyor belt levels 25 can be. Here the end of the tape 2 and the new beginning of the tape 3 in the Grinding device positioned and simultaneously grinded, as this from the Figure 8 emerges.

Der generelle Vorteil der Erfindung mit den vorgenannten Positionierungsmöglichkeiten ergibt sich daraus, daß anstelle einer Laserschweißmaschine zum Verschweißen von Bandenden 2, 3 eine konventionelle Rollennaht-Schweißmaschine eingesetzt werden kann, um Warmbänder 1 bzw. deren freien Enden 2, 3 miteinander zu verschweißen. Rollennaht-Schweißmaschinen sind erfahrungsgemäß mindestens um den Faktor zwei kostengünstiger. Der Vorteil dieser Schweißeinrichtung besteht auch darin, daß sie beim Umbau einer bestehenden Bandlinie für den Einsatz von Warmband die Investition einer Laserschweißmaschine unnötig macht.The general advantage of the invention with the aforementioned positioning options results from the fact that instead of a laser welding machine for welding from tape ends 2, 3 a conventional roller seam welding machine can be used to hot strips 1 or their free ends 2, 3 with each other to weld. Experience has shown that roller seam welding machines are used at least two times cheaper. The advantage of this welding device is also that when converting an existing belt line for the use of hot strip makes the investment of a laser welding machine unnecessary makes.

Die Erfindung erhöht die Wirtschaftlichkeit beim Verschweißen zweier Bänder bzw. Bandenden und eignet sich auch zur Nachrüstung an vorhandenen Bandanlagen. The invention increases the economy when welding two strips or belt ends and is also suitable for retrofitting to existing belt systems.
