Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018069876A1] The present invention relates to a rolling mill (1) for tubular bodies comprising rolling mills (10) with four rolls. The rolling mill comprises a structure defining a housing (4) for the mill stands (10) and a plurality of drive shafts (31, 32, 33, 34) for rotating a corresponding roll (11, 12, 13, 14) for each mill stand. Each drive shaft (31, 32, 33, 34) extends in reversible manner from a retracted configuration, in which it is operatively disconnected from said corresponding roll (11, 12, 13, 14), to an extended configuration, in which it is operatively connected to said corresponding roll (11, 12, 13, 14). According to the invention, each drive shaft (31, 32, 33, 34) is actuated independently from the other drive shafts and at least one of said drive shafts, when it is in said retracted configuration, is inclinable between a first reference position and a second reference position, so that said at least one drive shaft is outside the space comprised between the two planes which vertically delimit the housing (4).
