Abstract: A rolling device with at least two rolls installed in a common stand, the rolls being mounted on lateral stringers by bearings, which are able to move vertically along the lateral stringers, and with at least one axial adjusting device for one of the rolls. The axial adjusting device is directly assigned to the vertically adjustable bearings and is able to move vertically along with them.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rolling device (1) comprising at least two rollers (2;3), which are arranged on a common roll stand (8) and held on lateral spars (9) in vertically displaceable bearings (26), as well as at least one system (11) for axially displacing one of said rollers (2;3). According to the present invention, said system (11) is associated with the vertically displaceable bearings (26) and can move vertically with said bearings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for disposing of a lubricant, preferably oil, of which a controlled supply is provided to a friction bearing, especially a roll neck bearing of a chock. Said lubricant flows into the bearing box and is disposed of below through a lubricant sump. According to said method, the lubricant which has collected in the sump is disposed of upwards with the aid of a vacuum. To this end, the bearing case (1) is configured with a discharge bore (10) which extends downwards into the lubricant sump (9), and is connected to the atmosphere via at least one ventilation bore (17) situated at the top end of the bearing, and an outlet line (15, 16). The discharge bore (10) has a pressure regulating valve (13) in a line (12) which is connected to a vacuum source (VQ). Said pressure regulating valve (13) has an interactive connection to a device for measuring the throughflow of air (14), said measuring device being located in the outlet line (15) of the ventilation bore (17).

Abstract: A method of adjusting two shielding elements and including transporting a metal strip on a roller table, shielding a cooling medium from the edge regions of the metal strip with adjusting shielding elements, and adjusting the shielding elements asymmetrically with respect to the central axis of the roller table so that the temperature profile behind the shielding elements, as seen in a transporting direction of the strip, approximate to a nominal temperature profile; and an assembly for effecting the method.

Abstract: A method of adjusting a position of two shield elements for a liquid cooling medium and arranged above a metal strip having a strip plane and a strip central plane extending transverse to the strip plane and intersecting the same along the strip central axis, with the two shield elements being located opposite each other with respect to the strip central plane and having each an adjustable component identical to the adjustable component of another of the two shield elements and adjustable transverse to the strip central plane, and with the method including providing an adjusting element connectable with the two shield elements for adjusting the same, and adjusting the adjusting element in the strip central plane; and a device for effecting the method.
