Live roller feed bed in front of cooling beds for transferring rolling stock lengths arriving one after the other

摘要

For the complete separation from the tail end of a leading rolled part length (T) from the head end of a trailing partial length (T), which are separated from a rolled strand (W) by means of a pair of scissors (S) in the overrun roller conveyor before cooling beds (S), one is designed as a separating switch Switch (5) a separate channel section (8) arranged downstream. This is divided into two parallel longitudinal sections, one with a fixed channel section (8a) and a liftable and lowerable channel section (8b) forming a lower trough. The switch (5) and the channel section (8) can be moved together in the same direction in the horizontal plane transversely to the conveying direction (R) by means of a displacement means (6) such that the head end is inclined on an arcuate path which is inclined towards the outer side wall of the channel section (8a) overflows the channel section (8a) and the tail end of the partial length (T) is drawn in after the switch (5) has been reversed through the lower-lying channel section (8b) which forms a trough and which, even at higher run-up speeds, causes the switch (5) to whip avoids tail end of the partial length (T) as well as surface impairments.
