Means for cooling and transversely conveying metal sheets
Abstract
Abstract Apparatus with stationary supporting gratings, and with supporting gratings movable reversibly by control members, for cooling and transversely conveying metal sheets deposited upon a support carried by rollers, with the interposition of inclined guiding tracks, so arranged that the movable gratings will be raised when they are displaced forward and lowered when they are displaced rearward, the forward and lifting movement of the movable gratings being followed by a rearward and lowering movement, and then by a partial forward stroke which brings the upper edge of the movable gratings up to the level of the upper edge of the stationary gratings, the inclination of the guiding tracks being interrupted by a horizontal section in a position which corresponds to that position of the rollers in which the upper edge of the movable gratings is flush with the upper edge of the flush gratings.
