  • Device for loading the guide surfaces of bearing chocks supported in the housing windows of rolling stands
    Patent number: 7426844
    Abstract: A device for loading the guide surfaces of bearing chocks (LS) supported in the housing windows (SF) of rolling stands with pressure plates (DP) that can be placed on the guide surfaces and that can be loaded by a hydraulic piston (K) supported in the rolling stand housings (ST), wherein devices for measuring the pressure and devices (WM) for measuring the displacement of the piston are assigned to the hydraulic piston (K), and wherein the frictional force is eliminated by adjusting well-defined clearances between the bearing chocks (LS) and the guide surfaces.
