Abstract
The invention relates to a winding machine (1). According to the invention a winding material supply guide (14) is guided for being displaced with a degree of freedom (19) relative to a frame (2) of the winding machine (1). When a winding material guiding structure (4) executes a compensating movement (23) along a degree of freedom (6) during the winding process due to an increase of the diameter of a wound package formed on a spindle (3), a corresponding movement of the winding material supply guide (14) along the degree of freedom (19) can be induced in a way such that a supply angle β of the winding material (11) to the winding material guiding structure (4) does not change during the winding process.
Claims11
A winding machine comprising
- a) a frame,
- b) a spindle,
- c) a winding material guiding structure which
- ca) comprises a traversing winding material guide which is driven for executing a traversing movement,
- cb) comprises a bail means which is pressed against an outer surface of a wound package wound on the spindle and
- cc) is moved during a winding process according to an increasing diameter of the wound package for providing a compensating movement relative to the spindle,
- d) a winding material supply guide arranged upstream from the traversing winding material guide, the winding material supply guide being located at a position of the frame remote from the winding material guiding structure and a winding material being transferred directly from the winding material supply guide to the winding material guiding structure,
- e) the winding material supply guide being moveable in a translational manner dependent on the compensating movement,
- f) wherein the movement of the winding material guiding structure during the winding process is coupled to the movement of the winding material supply guide by a coupling structure which rigidly couples the winding material guiding structure to the winding material supply guide, and
- g) wherein the coupling structure extends within the frame such that the coupling structure is not visible from the outside and is covered by a wall of the frame.
