A hand-powered jewellery rolling mill is disclosed. The mill comprises a support frame and a pair of opposed parallel cylindrical rollers rotatably mounted to the support frame. A drive shaft is connected to at least one of the rollers for rotation thereof. A manually rotatable handle is configured for providing a drive force to the drive shaft. The handle may be connected to the drive shaft through a high-ratio gear train. The rolling mill may further comprise an input shaft, rotatable by the manually rotatable handle. The input shaft may have a worm and a worm-to-gear coupling may transfer torque from the input shaft to the drive shaft.

The rolling mill stand comprises a bending device and a shifting device for the rolling rolls. The housing supports the upper backing and work rolls, and the lower backing and work roll and comprises the lower bending block, the upper bending block, the chock of the upper work roll, the chock of the lower work roll, the axial shifting device of the upper work roll, the axial shifting device of the lower work roll. The chock of the lower work roll is coupled with the lower bending block to transmit a bending load on the lower work roll. The upper bending block transmits a bending load on the upper work roll by means of the action of actuators. The bending block comprises a slide with a T-section which slides in the guide and a chock of the upper backing roll, whereby the upper bending block, instead of being a single piece, is formed by two different and separate structural components.

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.

An adjusting cylinder quick-action adjustment for a long, rapid stroke movement in an edging stand which includes an edger upright, adjustment system, balancing system and edging roll sets, comprises a piston which acts via edging roll chocks of at least one edging roll for adjustment against the rolling stock. The adjustment of the edging roll can be actuated on each side hydraulically by a fluid. The adjusting cylinder quick-action adjustment is mounted in the edger upright and exerts the force required for the edging process. The adjusting cylinder quick-action adjustment includes on each side of the edging upright at least one double cylinder which has two cylinders coupled to one another and is separately controllable and configured for rapid adjustment and for control adjustment of the edging roll.
