Web winding apparatus

A web winding apparatus comprising:

• support bodies;
• two rotational center members rotatably supported respectively by the support bodies;
• two bobbins supported respectively by the two rotational center members;
• a cutter provided movably between the bobbin on one side and the bobbin on the other side for cutting a web being transferred;
• a web pressing member provided movably together with the cutter and operable for pressing an end portion of the web cut with the cutter, on the bobbin being empty to wind the end of the web on the empty bobbin;
• a roller provided movably together with the cutter and operable for transferring the web being transferred to come toward the bobbins;
• and
• two peripheral covers provided on the support bodies to be independently turnable around the rotational center members and respectively covering parts of outer peripheral surfaces of the webs wound on the two bobbins, each of the peripheral covers having a circumferential opening;
• wherein each of the peripheral covers respectively covering the bobbins is turnable selectively to a first position to direct the circumferential opening toward the position of the roller when winding the web on one of the bobbins and a second position to partition the one side of the bobbins and position of the roller when dismounting the one of the bobbins from one of the rotational center members.
