Instead of wire comb can also be a coil or a other, intended for binding leaves packs, flexible, elongated Binder in the longitudinal direction by the below-described Device to be wound up on a spool.

The device shown in the figures has a housing 2, on the above a rotation axis 4 a rotary holder 6 is rotatably mounted. In the illustrated Embodiment is the device for receiving two coils provided, wherein the coils are wound up in alternation. For this is the Rotary holder 6 as isosceles and with respect to the axis of rotation. 4 formed symmetrical double lever, wherein at the one free end of the Rotary holder 6, a first coil bearing 8 for releasably holding a first coil 10 and at the opposite other free end of the rotary holder 6 a second coil bearing 12 for releasably supporting a second coil 14th is arranged. The rotary holder 6 extends at right angles to the axis of rotation 4, wherein at its free ends, the coil bearings 8, 12 are arranged so that the Rotary axes of the detachably to be held or held Erten coils 10, 14th are directed parallel to each other and parallel to the axis of rotation 4. The coil bearings 8, 12 are of course designed so that the coils 10, 14 do not only releasable, but also rotatably supported. Each of the coils 10, 14 is set in rotation by an associated separate drive 16.

In the illustrated embodiment, the rotary holder 6, as described above, for receiving two coils 10, 14 is provided. Basically, it is also conceivable, the device and in particular the rotary holder 6 for receiving of more than two coils form.

Furthermore, in the illustrated embodiment, on the axis of rotation 4 and thus on the housing 2, a pivot frame 18 is rotatably mounted, at whose from the Rotary axis 4 remote portion disposed a foam roller 20 is. As can be seen in particular Figure 1, the extends Foam roller 20 in its longitudinal direction parallel to the axis of rotation 4 and thus also to the axes of rotation of the coils 10, 12 placed on the coil bearings 8, 14. The foam roller 20 is supported on the swing frame 18 so that the Distance between the axis of rotation 4 and the axis of rotation 4 closest point on the circumference of the foam roller 20 about the distance farthest between the axis of rotation 4 and the axis of rotation 4 located point on the circumference of the coils 10, 14 corresponds.

Further, on the housing 2 for supplying the wire comb and the Wire comb 30 receiving release paper 26, a feeder 22nd arranged. As can be seen in particular Figures 3 and 4, the Feeding device 22 on a guide arm 24, which consists of a in Cross-section U-shaped and upwardly open profile strip exists. Thus forms the guide arm 24 a channel for receiving release paper 26th In particular, Figure 4 reveals that the release paper 26 from a in Cross-section U-shaped and upwardly open profile strip consists whose Side walls at substantially regular intervals with transverse to the Longitudinal extending slots are provided. The release paper 26 lies in the channel formed by the guide arm and is in the longitudinal direction pushed this channel.

The arrangement and dimensioning of the guide arm 24 of the feeding device 22, the arrangement and height-adjustable mounting of the cutting disk 38 and the dimensioning of the pivot arm 42 and the arrangement of the gripper tongs 42 carried by this are such that in particular

• the gripping tongs 44 can be pivoted by the pivoting arm 42 into a position adjacent to the separating disk 38, where the gripping tongs 44 lie directly behind the separating disk 38, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7,
• the gripping tongs 44 can be pivoted by the pivoting arm 42 into a further position adjacent to the feeding device 22, where the gripping tongs 44 are located in the region of the free end 24a of the guiding arm 24 of the feeding device 22, like FIGS. 6 to 8 in conjunction with FIGS and 4 show
• the guide arm 24 of the feeding device 22 can be pivoted with its free end 24a into a position adjacent to the cutting disk 38, where the cutting disk 38 is located with a portion immediately in front of the free end 24a of the guide arm 24, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7; and
• the guide arm 24 of the feeding device 22 can be pivoted into the coil 10 located closest to it, optionally together with the pivoting arm 42 carrying the gripping tongs 44, as can be seen in particular in FIG. 8, or independently of this or without it, as in FIG. 5 lets recognize.

As can also be seen from FIG. 4, which is a partial view of the device in FIG opposite to Figure 1 shows essentially opposite viewing direction, are the Feeding device 22, the holding arm 34 and the pivot arm 42 at a common carrier 46 arranged in the transverse direction along at least a horizontally extending rod 48 slidably stored and thus adjustable in the transverse direction. The transverse adjustment of this Assembly takes place by means of a drive 50 shown in FIG.

The operation of the device described above will be described below explained in detail with reference to Figures 5 to 8, wherein the various Drives for generating linear, pivoting and rotary movements of one Control device to be controlled, which, however, for reasons of Clarity in the figures is not shown.

FIG. 5 shows a situation in which the first coil 10 is filled, while the second coil 14 is being prepared. For this purpose, the rotary holder 6 in a pivoted position such that the first coil 10 adjacent to Feeder 22 is located while the second coil 14 in one of the delivery device 22 located remote position. Thus it is the first coil 10 in a region of the device serving as a take-up area can be referred to and in the figures 2 and 5 to 8 with the The reference numeral "I" is indicated, while the second coil 14 in a region remote from the take-up area I located as Waiting range can be designated and in the figures 2 and 5 to 8 with the Reference symbol "II" is marked. To the first coil 10 with the Fill the wire comb and the release paper receiving the wire comb can, the guide arm 24 of the feeder 22 is so in the direction the first coil 10 pivots that the guide arm 24 with its free End 24a protrudes into the first coil 10 to the in the feeder 22 supplied wire comb 30 together with the release paper on the first Spool 10 can be delivered.

As can also be seen from FIG. 5, on the core of the first coil 10 is a radial upstanding driver pin 52 is arranged at the beginning of the Wire comb is fixed. Such a driving pin 52 is also in the same Way in the second coil 14 and on further in this device to be used accordingly coils. To fix the Wire comb 30 engages the driving pin 52 between two turns of the Wire comb 30. For filling the first coil 10, this is through the her associated drive 16 is rotated accordingly, causing the wire comb under Interlayer of the release paper is wound spirally, which is shown in Figure 5 is indicated by a dashed line 54. Since the coils are usually a have significantly greater width than the wire comb to be wound, such as 1 shows the winding movement is not only in radial direction, but at the same time in the axial direction, so that corresponding winding layers formed with adjacent turns become. For this purpose, the transverse adjustment described above with reference to FIG required, whereby the feeding device 22, the holding arm 34 with the Cutting device 36 and the pivot arm 42 with the gripper tongs 44th during the winding process together with the aid of the illustrated in Figure 4 Drive 50 between two format-dependent programmable end positions in Transversely moved back and forth.

During the winding process, the guide arm 24 is corresponding taken along, on the one hand, the previously mentioned axial movement position for location and on the other from one location to the next its radial distance to the axis of rotation of the coil 10 is increased accordingly. At the same time in the waiting area II, a possibly already filled coil removed and attached an empty bobbin on the second coil bearing 12. In the shown in Figure 5 second coil 14 is a new empty coil, which is provided for the next winding process.

As soon as the first coil 10 is approximately full, the rotary holder 6 rotates in the illustrated embodiment about 90 ° according to the figures opposite in the clockwise direction in the position shown in Figure 6. This will be the Guide arm 24 of the feeding device 22 further entrained and raised accordingly and passes with its free end 24 a between the open jaws of the gripper tongs 44. For this purpose, the pivot arm 42 in a Pivoted position in which the gripper tongs 44 adjacent to Cutting disc 38 is located. By swinging out of the first coil 10 the winding area I it comes with its scope at the same time in touching Intervention with the foam roller 20, to which the foam roller 20th carrying swing frame 18 is already in a corresponding position. By the touching engagement by the foam roller 20 of the Wire comb whose course in Figure 6 schematically as a dashed line represented and in the same manner as in Figure 5 by the reference numeral "54" is fixed to the first coil 10.

The gripper tongs 44 engage the wire comb in the free end 24a of the guide arm 24 of the feeder 22 by the jaws of the Gripper tongs 44 are closed and between them the wire comb pinch. At the same time, the blade 38 is not affected by the detail shown linear drive in the holder 40 in the direction of the wire comb drove down, while rotating and cuts together the Wire comb 30 and the underlying release paper 26 with a single Cut through. This situation is shown in FIG. The resulting loose end of the wire comb 30 with the release paper 26 is doing by the Foam roller 20 pressed against the full bobbin 10 and thus at this fixed.

Now rotates the pivot bracket 6 by about another 90 °, making the full first Coil 10 in the waiting area II and the empty second coil 14 in the Winding area I passes. In this case, the foam roller 20 supporting Swing frame 18 synchronously moved to continue the loose Drahtkammende to fix on the full first coil 10, until it finally from carrying them first reel 8 is removed. This situation is shown in FIG.

As can also be seen from FIG. 8, the guide arm 24 is the Feeding device 22 has been lowered into the empty second coil 14 and is now in a distance from the cutting device 36 Pivot position. Synchronous with the guide arm 24 of the gripper tongs 44 supporting pivot arm 42 pivots because the gripper tongs 44 the Wire comb 30 in the free end 24a of the guide arm 24 continues to hold. The in this way continuing fixation of the wire comb 30 through the Gripper tongs 44 is advantageous to when lowering the guide arm 24 the empty second coil 14 to ensure that the wire comb 30 on the Driven element 52 is placed and engaged with this to a Establish fixation for the subsequent winding process. Subsequently the gripper tongs 44 is opened again, the arm 42 carrying them in Direction to the support arm 34 and thus away from the second coil 14 pivoted and the still empty second coil 14 from the associated drive 16 in Rotation offset or accelerated, causing the wire comb 30 together with the underlying release paper 26 from the guide arm 24 of the Feeding device 22 pulled out and in the same way spirally the second coil 14 is wound, as previously with reference to the first coil 10th has been described.

While the second coil 14 is filled in the winding area I, can now full first coil 10 in the waiting area II against a new empty coil be replaced. Thus, again the previously with reference to Figure 5 achieved state, so that now the whole process accordingly repeated.

During the previously described in particular with reference to FIGS 6 to 8 Bobbin change can optionally reduce the machine speed become; However, a stop is generally not required, creating an im Substantial uninterrupted transition of the winding operation of a full on a new empty bobbin is possible.
