A device for capturing and transmitting data of a bearing of a steel mill or rolling mill includes a sensor with a data processing unit arranged in a bearing housing capturing and storing data of a bearing. A data transmission unit in the bearing housing wirelessly transmits data of the sensor to a remote receiver. An energy receiving unit in the bearing housing receives energy wirelessly and transmits it to the data transmission unit and the data processing unit. An energy source with an energy transmitting unit arranged outside the bearing housing supply the energy unit wirelessly. The energy transmitting unit is covered by the bearing housing and is arranged on or in a structural part which adjoins the bearing housing and is part of the supporting structure of mill and remains on the supporting structure of the mill when the bearing housing is removed for maintenance purposes.

The invention relates to a roller assembly (1) comprising two roller shafts which are mounted in a housing. The roller shafts are preferably mounted parallel to each other, and each roller shaft has at least one roller ring on the axial end region of the roller shaft. A seal assembly is secured on or in the housing, said seal assembly being used to allow the axial end region of the roller shafts, together with the roller rings, to be sealed off from the interior of the housing. In order to allow the seal assembly to be serviced in a substantially shorter amount time than before in the event of wear in the seal assembly and in order to allow the replacement of seals in particular, the seal assembly has: a seal support plate which is secured to or in the housing or is part of the housing; two slide rings for each roller shaft, said slide rings being arranged on the roller shaft; a double-lip seal with two seal lips for each roller shaft, said double-lip seal being arranged on the seal support plate, wherein each of the seal lips rests against a slide ring; and a support ring for each roller shaft, said support ring being arranged in the radially inner region of the double-lip seal and radially supporting same. A rotation prevention mechanism is provided, by means of which the double-lip seal is prevented from rotating relative to the seal support plate.

A rolling device (1), a method and a rolling train (35) for the cold rolling of rolled stock (3). The rolling device (1)-a rolling stand (5), multiple assembly sets for optionally assembling the rolling stand (5) with one of the assembly sets, and a working-roll drive. Each assembly set comprises two working rolls (7, 8), and for each working roll (7, 8) two working-roll chocks (9). A spindle head (11), can be connected to a working roll journal (16) of the working roll (7, 8). The working rolls (7, 8) of different assembly sets have different working-roll diameter ranges, which are determined by a respective minimum working-roll diameter and maximum working-roll diameter. The rolling stand (5) has mountings (19) for a respective working-roll chock (9) of an assembly set. The working-roll drive has two drive spindles (27), each for driving a working roll (7, 8) via the spindle head (11) assigned to the working roll (7, 8) by rotations about a longitudinal axis of the drive spindle (27).

A roll stand for the rolling of rolling stock, especially metal products. The roll stand includes at least two chocks for mounting at least one roll, the roll being rotatably mounted in the chocks by its two cylindrical roll necks. A cylindrical neck bushing is arranged on the roll neck with radial play. A rotationally fixed annual axial bearing is axially offset from the neck bushing. The bearing arrangement for the roll necks in the chocks is formed as a plain bearing, preferably a hydrodynamic oil film bearing. When subjected to a load in a rolling process, the neck bushing moves and deforms not only in the radial direction, but also in the axial direction.

A device for adjusting an object, for example a roll in a roll stand including a rotatably mounted pressure spindle and a torque motor having a stator and a rotor for rotationally driving the pressure spindle. In addition, the device includes a fixedly arranged pressure nut, which is engaged with the pressure spindle in a rotationally coupled manner via a thread to generate an axial movement of the pressure spindle in case of its rotation. Due to the axial movement generated in this way, the device can generate an axial adjustment force and transmit it to the object to be adjusted.

Pilger rolling mill for working a hollow into a tube has a first roll stand mounted linearly moveable in a direction of motion. Translational motion of the roll stand causes rotational motion of the drive gear due to the cogging of the drive gear with the gear rack and, hence, also rotational motion of the roller arranged on the shaft of the drive gear and rotational motion of the other one of the two rollers in the opposite direction. Roll stand is connected with a crank drive and rotational motion of a motor drive is transformed into an oscillating translational motion of the roll stand by a connecting rod. Gear rack holder allows adjustment of the pilger rolling mill with respect to tube diameters of finished rolled tubes by arranging the first roll stand exchangeable by a second roll stand with a second dimension being different from the first dimension.
