A bearing mount assembly is installed in opposed relation to a roll support frame with the pass line interposed therebetween, the bearing mount assembly being provided with bearings capable of removably supporting the front ends of roll shafts carried on the roll support frame. In roll exchange operation, the bearing mount assembly is moved away from the roll support frame and has its bearings removed therefrom, whereupon the bearing mount assembly is turned from this raised position to a flat position to provide a roll exchange operation space defined above the bearing mount assembly, making it possible to effect roll exchange operation.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A roll width adjusting device in a roll processing facility having a pair of straightening rolls fitted on a roll shaft projecting from a roll support frame toward the pass line, said straightening rolls each comprising a fixed roll fixed on the roll shaft, and a movable roll movable on the roll shaft toward and away from the fixed roll, and said roll width adjusting device comprising:an inner taper sleeve fitted for slide movement within a predetermined range on the roll shaft,an outer taper sleeve fitted on said inner taper sleeve, said outer taper sleeve having an inner peripheral taper surface contacting the outer peripheral taper surface of said inner taper sleeve,a roll sleeve fitted on said outer taper sleeve and said movable roll fitted on said roll sleeve for axial slide movement,an adjusting male threaded portion formed on the outer peripheral surface of said roll sleeve,a width change sleeve, fitted on said roll sleeve and having an adjusting female threaded portion threadedly engaged with said adjusting male threaded portion of said roll sleeve and connected to the movable sleeve,sleeve locking means for preventing rotation of said width change sleeve,sleeve expanding and contracting means for responding to the axial slide movement of the inner taper sleeve by expanding or contracting the outer diameter of the roll sleeve by its taper surface to thereby fix or release said movable roll and width change sleeve to or from the roll shaft, androll position adjusting means responsive to the release of the movable roll and width change sleeve from the roll shaft by said sleeve expanding and contracting means and to the prevention of the rotation of the width change sleeve by the sleeve locking means, for causing the width change sleeve and movable roll to slide axially by the rotation of the roll shaft and the action of the adjusting male and female threaded portions.
