Abstract
Disclosed is a system for winding an end of a thread on a central axis of a spool. The system includes a support means for the central axis, the support means being associated with a mechanism for driving this axis in axial rotation. The system further may have a mechanism for moving a portion of the thread to be wound, positioned downstream of the free end of the thread, and a hooking interface to catch a portion of the thread to be wound, this interface being positioned at the end of the spool central axis and fixed in rotation with the central axis to drive the winding of the thread around the central axis. Finally, the system may have a cutting mechanism of the thread upstream of the portion of the thread interacting with the hooking interface.
Claims13
A system for winding a thread end from a spool central axis, characterized in that the system comprises:
- a support means for the spool central axis, the support means being associated with an axial rotational drive mechanism of the spool central axis;
- a mechanism for moving a portion of the thread to be wound, positioned downstream of the free end of the thread;
- a hooking interface to catch a portion of the thread to be wound, this hooking interface being positioned at the end of the spool central axis and fixed in rotation with the spool central axis associated with the support means to drive the winding of the thread around the central axis;
- and
- a cutting mechanism of the thread upstream of the portion of the thread interacting with the hooking interface.
