Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A take-up winding machine continuously coils a plurality of threads. The take-up winding machine has a plurality of rotatably mounted winding turrets which, in each case, support two protruding winding spindles and which are held beside one another in a machine frame so as to be spaced apart by a pitch. The take-up winding machine further has a plurality of traversing units and a plurality of contact rollers which together with the winding turrets form a plurality of coiling positions. The winding turrets are assigned one common turret drive. The winding turrets are configured so as to be drivable in the same direction. The contact rollers and the traversing units are held on the machine frame along one machine longitudinal side so as to be symmetrical to the pitch of the winding turrets.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A take-up winding machine for continuously coiling a plurality of threads, comprising: a plurality of rotatably mounted winding turrets which in each case support two protruding winding spindles and which are held beside one another in a machine frame so as to be spaced apart by a pitch, a plurality of traversing units and a plurality of contact rollers which together with the winding turrets form a plurality of coiling positions, wherein the winding turrets are assigned one common turret drive, wherein the winding turrets are configured so as to be drivable in the same direction and in a synchronous manner, and wherein the contact rollers and the traversing units are held on the machine frame along one machine longitudinal side so as to be symmetrical to the pitch of the winding turrets. 2. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the turret drive of the winding turrets is formed by an electric motor and a belt drive and/or a chain drive. 3. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 1 wherein the traversing units are held beside one another by a traverse support, which traverse support extends above the winding turrets along the coiling positions. 4. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the contact rollers are held beside one another by a roller support, and wherein the roller support is movably guided on the machine frame. 5. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 3 wherein the traverse support is held on the machine frame by a roller support. 6. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the traversing units in the coiling positions are formed by in each case one wing-type traversing installation by way of rotor wings which are drivable in opposite directions, and wherein the wing-type traversing installations are collectively drivable by way of one traverse drive. 7. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the traverse drive is formed by an electric motor and a belt drive, wherein each of the wing-type traversing installations is assigned one of a plurality of transfer cases. 8. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the winding spindles on the winding turrets are assigned separate winding drives, and wherein the winding drives of one group of winding spindles are collectively controlled by way of one group controller. 9. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the group controller is linked to a revolution sensor which is assigned to one of the contact rollers. 10. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 9 , wherein a plurality of deflection rollers which are held so as to be distributed across the coiling positions are disposed above the traversing units. 11. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the coiling positions are configured in such a manner that per coiling position one thread is coiled to form one package or a plurality of threads are coiled to form a plurality of packages. 12. A take-up winding machine for continuously coiling a plurality of threads, comprising: a plurality of rotatably mounted winding turrets which in each case support two protruding winding spindles and which are held beside one another in a machine frame so as to be spaced apart by a pitch, a plurality of traversing units and a plurality of contact rollers which together with the winding turrets form a plurality of coiling positions, wherein the winding turrets are assigned one common turret drive, wherein the winding turrets are configured so as to be drivable in the same direction, wherein the contact rollers and the traversing units are held on the machine frame along one machine longitudinal side so as to be symmetrical to the pitch of the winding turrets, wherein the traversing units are held beside one another by a traverse support, which traverse support extends above the winding turrets along the coiling positions, and wherein the traverse support is held on the machine frame by a roller support. 13. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the contact rollers are held beside one another by the roller support, and wherein the roller support is movably guided on the machine frame. 14. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the traversing units in the coiling positions are formed by in each case one wing-type traversing installation by way of rotor wings which are drivable in opposite directions, and wherein the wing-type traversing installations are collectively drivable by way of one traverse drive. 15. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the traverse drive is formed by an electric motor and a belt drive, wherein each of the wing-type traversing installations is assigned one of a plurality of transfer cases. 16. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the winding spindles on the winding turrets are assigned separate winding drives, and wherein the winding drives of one group of winding spindles are collectively controlled by way of one group controller. 17. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the group controller is linked to a revolution sensor which is assigned to one of the contact rollers. 18. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 17 , wherein a plurality of deflection rollers which are held so as to be distributed across the coiling positions are disposed above the traversing units. 19. The take-up winding machine as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the coiling positions are configured in such a manner that per coiling position one thread is coiled to form one package or a plurality of threads are coiled to form a plurality of packages.
