  • Patent number: 7578380
    Abstract: A roller conveyor roll for the transport of furnace-heated metallic strip or a continuously cast steel strand has a shaft extending along an axis, a tubular shell coaxially surrounding the roller shaft and having a pair of axially spaced ends, and a respective insulating body at each of the shell ends between the respective shell and the shaft and angularly fixed to the shell and to the shaft for transmitting torque between the shaft and the shell ends. The bodies electrically and thermally insulate the shell from the shaft.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7275632
    Abstract: A roller conveyor roller for furnace-heated metal strip has a roller shell journaled on a shaft with bearings providing thermal and electrical insulation of the shell from the shaft. The shell can be divided into shell segments each of which can have two bearings. One of these bearings can be a conical bearing with conical rings and with rollers which are thermally and electrically insulating.

  • Publication number: 20040178043
    Abstract: The invention relates to a roller table roll used, in particular, for conveying furnace-heated metallic strip material, cast billets made of steel and the like. The roller table roll comprises a roll shaft (4) and a roll casing (1) that is mounted on the roll shaft (4) at least at the roll ends (2; 3). The aim of the invention is to prevent damages caused by electric currents and by sparking on the product surface. To this end, the roll casing (1) is mounted on the roll shaft (4) while being electrically and/or thermally insulated at least at the roll ends (2; 3).
