Abstract
A reel changing device is described for reeling fiber bundles from a fiber strand exiting a spinning device, including at least a first reel carrier and a second reel carrier on each of which a reel suited for winding up the fiber strand is arranged and which are movably received and guided in at least a first reel guide and a second reel guide so that the reels are adapted to be positioned one after another in an exit direction of the fiber strand so as to enable, in the case of a reel change, the fiber strand to be directly transferred from the first reel arranged on the first reel carrier to the second reel arranged on the second reel carrier. Moreover, a reel changing method in such reel changing device is described.

A reel changing device for reeling fiber bundles from a fiber strand exiting a spinning device in an exit direction, the reel changing device comprising:
- a first reel guide and a second reel guide;
- a first reel carrier guided by the first reel guide and a second reel carrier guided by the second reel guide, each of the first reel carrier and the second reel carrier configured to receive a reel configured for winding the fiber strand;
- wherein the first and second reel guides position the first and second reel carriers so that the reels received by the first and second reel carrier are positioned one after another in the exit direction of the fiber strand so as to enable, in the case of a reel change, the fiber strand to be directly transferred from the first reel arranged on the first reel carrier to the second reel arranged on the second reel carrier;
- wherein during the reel change the fiber strand is transferred from the reel of the first or second reel carrier closest to the spinning device to the reel of the first or second reel carrier more distant from the spinning device.
A reel changing device for reeling fiber bundles from a fiber strand exiting a spinning device in an exit direction, the reel changing device comprising:
- a first reel guide and a second reel guide;
- a first reel carrier guided by the first reel guide and a second reel carrier guided by the second reel guide, each of the first reel carrier and the second reel carrier configured to receive a reel configured for winding the fiber strand;
- wherein the first and second reel guides position the first and second reel carriers so that the reels received by the first and second reel carrier are positioned one after another in the exit direction of the fiber strand so as to enable, in the case of a reel change, the fiber strand to be directly transferred from the first reel arranged on the first reel carrier to the second reel arranged on the second reel carrier;
- wherein during the reel change the fiber strand is transferred from the reel of the first or second reel carrier closest to the spinning device to the reel of the first or second reel carrier more distant from the spinning device;
- wherein the fiber strand is put onto the reel of the first or second reel carrier at a position of the respective reel carrier more distant from the spinning device and the respective reel carrier moves along the respective reel guide during a winding up the fiber strand toward a position close to the spinning device.
