Patent ID: 7032424

Claim:
A cluster mill, in particular a six-high cluster mill, comprising an axial displacing and holding device for displaceably supported intermediate rolls and/or working rolls, wherein chocks are slidably displaced in rolling mill stands in a direction of a roll separating force, and wherein the intermediate rolls and/or working rolls, together with their respective chocks, are displaceable in axial opposite directions by hydraulic piston-cylinder units acting in a direction of roll axes, with both piston rods being pivotally connected by a respective main traverse, characterized in that moving beams ( 1 a ), which are arranged on opposite sides of the roll chock ( 7 ), are supported in a rolling mill stand housing post ( 1 ) by a respective connecting traverse ( 2 ), that the connecting traverses ( 2 ) are pivotally connected to the middle of the main traverse ( 4 ), wherein the piston rods ( 5 a ) of the piston-cylinder units ( 5 ) are pivotally connected to ends ( 4 a , 4 b ) of the main traverse ( 4 ), and wherein each piston-cylinder unit ( 5 ) is controlled according to path by a displacement sensor ( 10 ).
