Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A radial/axial ring rolling mill for rolling a ring has an axial rolling device and a radial rolling device. The radial rolling device includes a main roller and a roller mandrel, between which the ring can be shaped. The roller mandrel is retained in the upper region thereof on a mandrel bearing head supported in a first linear adjustment device to be able to be horizontally adjusted in such that the roller mandrel can be moved perpendicularly to the longitudinal extent thereof in the direction towards the main roller and in the opposite direction thereto. The first linear adjustment device together with the mandrel bearing head and the roller mandrel is able to be adjusted as a unit by a second linear adjustment device in a vertical manner so that the roller mandrel can be pulled out of the inner space of the ring and introduced therein.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Radial/axial ring rolling mill for rolling a ring comprising an axial rolling device and a radial rolling device, wherein the radial rolling device has a main roller and a roller mandrel, between which the ring can be shaped, wherein the roller mandrel is retained in an upper region of the roller mandrel on a mandrel bearing head which is supported in a first linear adjustment device so as to be able to be horizontally adjusted in such a manner that the roller mandrel can be moved perpendicularly to a longitudinal extent of the roller mandrel in a direction towards the main roller and in an opposite direction away from the main roller, wherein the first linear adjustment device together with the mandrel bearing head and the roller mandrel can be translated vertically as a unit by a second linear adjustment device so that the roller mandrel can be pulled out of an inner space of the ring and introduced therein. 2. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 1 , wherein the roller mandrel is retained in a non-displaceable manner in the mandrel bearing head. 3. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 2 , wherein the roller mandrel is retained in the mandrel bearing head by clamping. 4. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 2 , wherein the mandrel bearing head is fitted to at least one horizontal carrier. 5. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 2 , wherein the roller mandrel is retained at the upper region on a mandrel bearing element which is releasably fixed in the mandrel bearing head. 6. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 2 , wherein the roller mandrel can be rotated by a motor about a longitudinal axis of the roller mandrel. 7. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 1 , wherein the roller mandrel is retained in the mandrel bearing head by clamping. 8. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 7 , wherein the mandrel bearing head is fitted to at least one horizontal carrier. 9. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 7 , wherein the roller mandrel is retained at the upper region on a mandrel bearing element which is releasably fixed in the mandrel bearing head. 10. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 7 , wherein the roller mandrel can be rotated by a motor about a longitudinal axis of the roller mandrel. 11. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 1 , wherein the mandrel bearing head is fitted to at least one horizontal carrier. 12. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 11 , wherein the carrier engages in a displaceable manner through a guiding carriage of the first linear adjustment device. 13. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 12 , wherein the guiding carriage of the first linear adjustment device can be adjusted along a vertically extending path of the second linear adjustment device. 14. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 13 , wherein the guiding carriage of the first linear adjustment device can be fixed to the path of the second linear adjustment device. 15. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 14 , wherein the first linear adjustment device is fixed to the path of the second linear adjustment device clamping. 16. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according claim 5 , wherein the guiding carriage can be displaced vertically upwards to such an extent that the roller mandrel is moved completely out of the ring. 17. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 1 , wherein the roller mandrel is retained at the upper region on a mandrel bearing element which is releasably fixed in the mandrel bearing head. 18. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 10 , wherein the mandrel bearing element fixed in the mandrel bearing head by clamping. 19. Radial/axial ring rolling mill according to claim 1 , wherein the roller mandrel can be rotated by means of a motor about a longitudinal axis of the roller mandrel.
