[Prior Art] In a strip cooling device that cools a strip by winding it around a plurality of vertically arranged cooling rolls, as shown in Fig. 5, the strip is primarily cooled in a primary cooling zone (gas jet cooling zone). The strips are wound one after another so that the strips are cooled at the portion 22a where the strip 21 contacts the cooling roll 22. The cooled strip is then deflected horizontally by a deflector roll 23 and sent to an overaging zone or the like following the strip cooling device.

In the strip cooling device using the cooling roll described above, the center of the width of the strip is cooled faster than both ends due to the deformation caused by winding it around the cooling roll and the thickness profile of the strip in the width direction. As shown in FIG. 6, the temperature profile in the width direction of the strip is such that both ends of the strip are higher than the center.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] A strip with a temperature profile as shown in FIG.
Meandering or squeezing occurs in the strip when the strip is passed through a tension adjustment machine following the strip cooling device, such as a cooling roll 22 having a plurality of pinch rolls or prydle rolls 21 arranged vertically, or when passed through an overaging zone in the next process. However, there is a problem in that troubles may occur that may require a shutdown of operations.

This invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a strip cooling device in which meandering and throttling do not occur because there is no temperature unevenness in the strip in equipment subsequent to the strip cooling device.

[Means for Solving the Problems] A strip cooling device according to the present invention is a strip cooling device that is composed of a tension adjustment machine, a plurality of cooling rolls, a gas cooling zone whose cooling amount can be varied in the width direction, and a tension adjustment machine. It is a device.

[Effect] In the gas jet cooling zone, a strip with uneven temperature in the width direction is heated with a gas having a high heat transfer coefficient (for example, N2 gas).
Since the strip is cooled by cooling, the degree of temperature unevenness in the width direction of the strip is reduced in a short time, and meandering or constriction will not occur in the strip in subsequent equipment.

[Embodiment] A strip cooling device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 is an explanatory side view of a strip cooling device according to an embodiment of the present invention. A plurality of cooling rolls 1 are provided in the vertical direction and the contact area to the strip can be adjusted, and two deflector rolls 2 and 3 are provided following the plurality of cooling rolls 1, and these two deflector rolls 2 and 3 are provided. A gas jet cooling zone 5 is provided while maintaining the pass line by sandwiching the strip 4 between the two sides from both sides.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the wind box 6 that refines the gas jet cooling zone 5. This wind box 6 has a plurality of gas passages 7 divided in the width direction, and each gas passage 7 is provided with a plurality of gas ejection holes 8 in the longitudinal direction (in the vertical direction in the section). Then, pre-cooled gas is supplied from gas pipes 9 connected to each gas passage 7,
The gas is ejected from the gas ejection holes 8 toward the surface of the strip 4, thereby cooling the strip 4.

The amount of gas supplied to each gas passage 7 is determined by adjusting the surface temperature of the strip 4 corresponding to each gas passage 7 at the entrance of the overaging zone (behind the deflector roll 3 in FIG. 1). The temperature profile obtained by measuring with the thermometer 11 is a constant profile (the temperature difference between the center and both ends of the strip in the width direction is below a certain value), and the temperature level is suitable for over-aging treatment. The temperature is adjusted by opening and closing the valves 10 of the gas pipes 9 connected to the respective gas passages 7 so that the temperature is 350 to 400°C. Third
The figure shows the N2 gas content (volume%
) and the amount of heat transfer per unit time.1 Normally, the amount of heat transfer per unit time should be the largest when N2 gas is 100%, but this is not the case with air. This is because, since a conventional blower is used, as the ratio of N2 gas increases, the density of the gas decreases and the discharge pressure does not increase, and therefore the discharge amount per unit time also decreases. Therefore, when a normal air blower is used to supply cooling gas to the gas jet zone, as is clear from Figure 3, N2 gas is 70%
The cooling efficiency will be best if a mixed gas containing 30% N2 gas is supplied.
