Backing device for working roll of roll stand - has hydrostatic bearing along back-up roll and internal bearing shell with pockets, with pressure supply from single source (CS 31.12.79)

A hydrostatic bearing has a body which rests on the back-up roll and a shell whose internal surface is spaced by a clearance from the barrel of the back-up roll and is provided with pockets. The back-up rull rests by its ends on a supporting beam which is pressed against it by press-screws. The bearing shell is urged against the roll barrel by hydraulic cylinders mounted between the supporting beam and the bearing body. The chambers of the hydraulic cylinders are connected through respective conduits and throttles to the pockets on the shell internal surface, and there is at least one pocket for each hydraulic cylinder. The pockets and the respective hydraulic cylinders are connected to a single source of fluid under pressure. L'INVENTION CONCERNE L'INDUSTRIE DU LAMINAGE.LE DISPOSITIF FAISANT L'OBJET DE L'INVENTION EST CARACTERISE EN CE QU'IL EST PREVU DANS LA SURFACE INTERIEURE DU COUSSINET10 DU PALIER HYDROSTATIQUE AU MOINS UNE CAVITE13 POUR CHAQUE VERIN HYDRAULIQUE 16, LES CAVITES13 ET LES VERINS HYDRAULIQUES 16 QUI LEUR CORRESPONDENT ETANT RACCORDES A UNE SOURCE UNIQUE DE FLUIDE SOUS PRESSION, ET UN ETRANGLEUR ETANT INTERCALE DANS LES CONDUITES RELIANT LES CAVITES13 A LADITE SOURCE.L'INVENTION ASSURE NOTAMMENT UNE REGULATION AUTOMATIQUE ET FIABLE DE L'EPAISSEUR DU LAMINE.
