Yarn winding apparatus
First Claim
1. An apparatus for winding a plurality of advancing yarns to form wound packages, and comprisinga winding spindle upon which a plurality of bobbin tubes can be coaxially mounted, and a spindle drive for rotating the winding spindle,a beam-like carrier mounted immediately adjacent the winding spindle so as to extend generally parallel thereto and along the length of the winding spindle,a plurality of yarn traversing devices mounted to said carrier for traversing respective yarns and forming a wound yarn package on each of the bobbin tubes, anda control unit mounted on said carrier and including(a) a drive electronics unit for supplying power to the spindle drive,(b) a control electronics unit for controlling the operation of the winding apparatus, and(c) an operator panel for controlling the drive electronics unit and the control electronics unit.

Abstract
A yarn winding apparatus for winding a plurality of continuously advancing yarns into cross wound packages, and which includes a rotatable revolver which mounts a pair of winding spindles which are alternately moved between a winding position and a doffing position. A beam-like carrier supports a yarn traversing mechanism and a sensor roll for each package being formed, and the drive electronics and the control electronics are combined in a control unit which is mounted on the outer end portion of the length of the carrier.

11. An apparatus for continuously winding a plurality of advancing yarns onto bobbin tubes to form wound packages, and comprising,
a revolver mounted for rotation about a central axis and which rotatably mounts two spindles which are rotatable about respective axes which are parallel to said central axis, a revolver drive for selectively rotating the revolver so as to alternately move the spindles between a winding position and a doffing position, a spindle drive for rotating each of said spindles about their respective axis, a beam-like carrier mounted immediately adjacent said revolver so as to extend in a direction generally parallel to said central axis and along the lengths of the winding spindles, a plurality of yarn traversing devices mounted to said carrier for traversing the advancing yarns and forming wound yarn packages on respective bobbin tubes which are coaxially mounted on one of the spindles located at the winding position, and a control unit mounted on said carrier and including (a) a drive electronics unit for supplying power to the revolver drive and each of the spindle drives, (b) a control electronics unit for controlling the operation of the winding apparatus, and (c) an operator panel for controlling the drive electronics unit and the control electronics unit.
