Abstract: Rolling unit including at least two adjacent rolling stands, each having a pair of rolling rolls mounted on respective motorized shafts. The rolls of one rolling stand are disposed orthogonal and close to those of the adjacent rolling stand. The shafts are eccentrically supported in respective support elements, which are selectively rotatable around their axis and are each provided with rotation means to cooperate mechanically with an adjustment member suitable to make the support elements selectively rotate to determine an adjustment of the gap between the rolls. The rotation means of one pair of the support elements are directly connected kinematically to each other. The adjustment member is disposed, with respect to the rolling stands, so that the center of its gear lies very close to the line joining the centers of the support elements, so that a substantial part is contained in the bulk defined by the rolling stand.

Abstract: A coil-forming head, defining a longitudinal axis, for forming coils of a substantially rectilinear metallic product, comprising a fixed supporting structure, a rotor, adapted to turn about said longitudinal axis and rotatably fixed to said supporting structure, wherein the rotor comprises a bell-shaped member, which expands outwards with respect to said axis and has an outer surface thereof provided with at least one spiral-shaped groove, dimensioned to convey and form coils of a metallic product having diameter from 5 to 8 mm, and comprises at least one spiral-shaped tube, arranged inside and integrally fixed to said bell-shaped member, and dimensioned to convey and form coils of a metallic product having a diameter from 8 to 25 mm, wherein feeding means are provided to feed the product to said at least one groove or to said at least one tube.

Abstract: A laying head for the production of coils in hot rolling mills comprises a central body provided with a central cylinder and at least a shaped feed pipe, attached to the central body by means of clamping elements and bolts, and at least a circumferential guide disposed on the periphery of the cylindrical element. The circumferential guide consists of a plurality of elementary segments.
