Abstract
The invention describes a sleeve for sliding onto and removing from a winding shaft, which comprises a one-piece workpiece defining a cylinder, which workpiece comprises two edge regions each having an edge, the edge regions overlapping one another, the sleeve having a first diameter in a relaxed state, the sleeve in a clamped state having a second diameter which is different from the first diameter, the sleeve in the clamped state experiencing an elastic deformation as compared to the relaxed state.
Claims8
A sleeve for sliding onto and removing from a winding shaft, which comprises a one-piece work piece defining a cylinder, which comprises two edge regions with one edge, respectively, wherein the edge regions overlap one another, wherein the sleeve has a first diameter in a relaxed state, wherein the sleeve has a second diameter in a clamped state, which deviates from the first diameter, and wherein the sleeve experiences an elastic deformation in the clamped state compared to the relaxed state.
A method for successively winding of material web sections to form reels of material, wherein
- sleeve is being or is arranged on a winding core while the sleeve is in a relaxed state with a first diameter,
- the sleeve is transitioned into a clamped state having a second diameter, wherein the second diameter is larger than the first diameter,
- the material web section is wound onto the sleeve to form the reel of material,
- the sleeve is transitioned into the relaxed state, again, and
- the material web is removed from the sleeve,
- characterized in that the sleeve comprises a one-piece work piece defining a cylinder, which comprises two edge regions with one edge, respectively, wherein the edge regions overlap each other, wherein during transitioning of the sleeve from the relaxed state to the clamped state, the distance of the edges is reduced.
