摘要:
A buggy for changing mill rolls and the like comprises first and second supports mounted thereon. Each of said supports terminates in a roll neck socket adjacent a front or mill end of said buggy, with each of said sockets being shaped to closely receive a roll neck of an associated one of said mill rolls and to support said roll in cantilevered fashion. An arrangement is provided for advancing and withdrawing said buggy relative to said mill for insertion and withdrawal of said rolls when so cantilevered. In another embodiment, the buggy includes at least one such support mounted thereon and optionally with an arrangement for elevating the support relative to the buggy.

A transfer beam conveyor comprises a first elongated support structure, a second elongated support structure, an arrangement for mounting the first structure at a stationary position with respect to the length of the conveyor, and an arrangement for mounting the second structure for longitudinal movement relative to the conveyor and to the first structure. A mechanism is provided for reciprocating the second structure longitudinally of the first structure, together with mechanism for elevating each of the support structures so that a number of loads can be indexed therealong at essentially constant elevation.
