Winding device for flexible, flat material, especially printed products

A winding apparatus for flexible sheet-like arrangements, in particular printed products such as newspapers, periodicals and parts thereof, comprising

• a winding core and a band reel, which are mounted rotatably on a mobile framework,
• a winding band that is fastend, at one end, on the winding core and, at the other end, on the band reel and, with simulanteous unwinding from the band reel, can be wound up on the winding core together with the sheet-like arrangememts, and under tensile stressing, and/or, with simultaneors winding up onto the band reel, can be unwound from the winding core, together with the sheet-like arrangements and under tensile stressing,
• single drive motor for driving both the winding core and the band reel, the drive motor being arranged in a stationary winding station, the mobile framework being attachable to the winding station, the drive motor driving an endless drive belt belonging to the winding station and a continuous drive element also belonging to the winding station,
• whereby, in the attached state of the framework, the drive belt butts against and interacts in a frictionally manner with one of a lateral surface of the winding core in a lateral border region and a pulley, which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner with said winding core, the drive element for driving the band reel being attached to a driving wheel connected with said band reel, and, during the winding operation the winding core or, respectively, the pulley, slips in relation to the drive belt.
