HANDLING OF A BARRIER

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a use of a yarn package handling container for a yarn package for a technical yarn.

In such "technical yarn" concerned by the invention, for which the yarn bobbin handling container is intended, it is a thread-like or band-shaped winding material which is designed to be flexible in bending,

is formed as a single filament or multifilament (for example with more than 12,000 individual filaments up to 300,000 individual filaments),

a length of more than 100 km wound on the bobbin (in particular more than

200 km, more than 300 km to a length of 600 km),

has a weight / length (so-called "titer") in the range of 1 0,000 to 20,000 [g / 9,000 m] (for example, 12,000 to 16,000 denier),

is wound as a cross winding without support of the end faces on drum discs and / or

winding speeds of at least 10 m / min (preferably more than 30 m / min or more than 50 m / min) and / or unwound, wherein preferably the winding speed during unwinding is much smaller than the specified winding speeds, in particular by a factor of at least 10 smaller. Furthermore, the invention relates to a yarn winder, a yarn winder assembly and a method for handling a yarn package.

STATE OF THE ART

Technical yarns of the type described above are wound into yarn bobbins by means of yarn winding machines. The yarn winding machines can have only one winding station or several winding stations on which yarn bobbins can be wound in parallel. In the area of a winding station, the yarn winding machine has a spindle driven by a rotary drive. For winding a yarn package, a sleeve is first applied to the spindle. The yarn is then fed to the winding station. After catching the yarn, a winding is created on the sleeve. After completion of the yarn package formed with sleeve and winding, the yarn package is removed from the Garnspulmaschine by the yarn package is removed in the axial direction of the spindle. The yarn package is then transported and in particular further processing, in which, for example, the yarn is unwound, or a storage device for the purpose of stocking the yarn packages supplied. Basically, there is a need for yarn packages on which as much yarn is wound, but an increase in the absorption capacity of a yarn package due to the then also increasing mass of the winding limits are set.

US Pat. No. 1,405,554 discloses a rack for coils by means of which a tangling of a thread during unwinding is to be avoided. The frame has plate-shaped side walls. Between the side walls extending on the one hand several handrails for coils with a thread and on the other hand holding rods for crochet balls. The frame is used to hold the coil stationary on it, which may also be the case during the unwinding of the chord.

US 4,921,185 discloses a rack for a spool for a yarn for knitting or crocheting. The frame is formed with two x-shaped, hinged together rods, one of the rods in the upper end region forms a half-shell-shaped receptacle for a telescopic shaft on which there is a winding of the yarn. Again, the frame is used to hold the coil stationary at this, which may also be the case during the unwinding of the tongue. The publication DE 100 36 861 A1 discloses a winding machine in which rotatably driven spindles are mounted on a revolver. The spindles have rotatable chucks, by means of which on each spindle several successively lined up sleeves can be clamped. The chuck is mounted in one end area on the machine frame. Additional storage of the chuck takes place on the opposite side of the chuck via an additional support means, which is brought into engagement with the chuck in a winding position of the revolver. For this purpose, the support means comprises a carriage, with which the support means along two orthogonally oriented axes, which lie in a plane which is oriented vertically to the longitudinal axis of the spindle, is movable.

The document WO 2007/083162 describes the winding of bobbins on a spindle of a winding machine, the removal of the finished wound bobbin from the spindle of the winding machine, the transport of the bobbin by means of a transport device to a department store, the removal of the bobbin from the transport device ü about a pivotable holder and the storage of the spool by means of a frame which has a horizontal spindle. After storage (possibly over several months), the coil is again removed from the frame and in turn transported via the transport device, now to a frame, from which then the Spulgut is removed for further processing. Here, the Spulgut to be unwound from the spool by pulling on the Spulgut. On a rack, a plurality of rows and columns of coils may be arranged. As is known here is described that the racks are designed for several coils as a transport vehicle, whereby an exchange of the coils to be accelerated. The holding device of the frame in this case already has a guide device for the Spulgut. WO 2007/083162 proposes a transport vehicle for a coil whose fixedly connected frame struts extend along the edges of a cube, wherein a vertical edge and the adjacent two upper horizontal edges of the Ku bus are not equipped with edge struts. On an additional, attached to the edge struts vertical strut a rotatable spindle is mounted, on which the coil is supported. The frame struts are supported by wheels movable against the ground. The spindle protrudes freely from the vertical strut. The spindle also extends on the side facing away from the coil with a free end portion of the vertical strut out. At this free end a gear is attached. Is supported on the spindle, a coil, the frame can be moved on the one hand on the rollers, while on the other hand, it is possible that a transport of Coil takes place, in which the fork of a forklift engages under the underside of the frame. For the storage of the coil, the frame can be arranged in a coil frame, which has a rotary member and a yarn guide device. Here, several coils are arranged like a grid on the coil frame. The rotary organ of the coil frame is formed with a toothed wheel which engages in the toothed wheel of the spindle. About ei ne braking device, a braking force can be applied to the gear. After winding the bobbin on a winder, the bobbin is removed from the winder and pushed onto the spindle of the transport vehicle. On the transport vehicle, the coil is then fed to the coil frame. With application of a tensile force on the Spulgut the release of the braking device, which is a Abwickel n the coil mögl I is. A reduction in the tensile force leads to the operation of the braking device and thus reducing the speed of the coil. Alternatively, it is proposed that a drive of the spindle of the transport vehicle can take place via an electric motor during the unwinding of the package. In an alternative embodiment, the transport vehicle can only be formed with a bottom frame and free cantilevered vertical rods, on which the spindle is then rotatably held.

US 2012/0286083 A1 also discloses a caddy for a coil. This has frontal hexagonal frame members, on each of which a vertical strut is supported, on which the coil can be rotatably mounted. The caddy has wheels that allow it to be moved with the spool between different locations. The front-side frame members have a receiving device, by means of which it is possible to receive a coil, through which a shaft projecting end and which rests with its lateral surface on the ground, by rolling movement of the transport frame. After such reception of the coil, the coil is rotatably mounted on the transport frame.

The state of the art for the functioning of a winding machine can be found in DE 10 201 1 052 699 A1.

a yarn winder,

a Garnspulmaschinen module and / or

to propose a method of handling a bobbin, which is / are improved with respect to the handling of the bobbins, in particular the handling of bobbins with a coil having a relatively large mass.

SOLUTION The object of the invention is achieved with the features of the independent patent claims. Further preferred embodiments according to the invention can be found in the dependent claims.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is based first of all on an analysis of the reasons why, for conventional yarn packages, the mass of the winding is limited:

Thus, in a conventional Garnspulmaschine a sleeve is pushed onto the spindle and after completion of the winding process, the yarn package with the sleeve is removable from the spindle, for a possible embodiment of a Garnspulmaschine the spindle protrudes freely from a frame of Garnspulmaschine with "flying storage" of Spindle. With increasing the mass of the yarn package there is an increased stress on the bearings of the spindle, the bearings u. U. still with egg nem gap etched from d he Rah men facing end face of the yarn package are arranged, which further increase the already high stress on the bearings due to the flying storage. Thus, the increase in the mass of the yarn package requires a larger dimension of the bearing, which can lead to space problems.

Furthermore, an increase in the mass of the yarn package leads to an increased bending stress of the freely projecting spindle. Does it come as a result of the enlarged Bending stress to a deflection of the spindle, this leads to a reduction in the precision of the winding process and deviations of the induced Spulbildes of the given Spulbild. The increased bending stress must u. U. by an increased area moment of inertia of the spindle, so in particular an enlarged diameter of the spindle, be taken into account, which further aggravates the space problem.

With increasing the mass of the yarn package, the removal of the yarn package from the spindle is made more difficult, since the extraction forces increase. When removing the yarn bobbin, it is important to avoid acting on the winding, as exposure to the winding may result in distortion of the winder and, in the worst case, damage to the yarn. Thus, the winding for the application of the required extraction forces falls away.

Through the sleeve of the yarn package after completion of the winding, the spindle extends, so that no extraction forces can be applied from the inside to the yarn package.

Thus, usually the removal of the yarn package from the spindle, which usually takes place by sliding on a mandrel of a transport device, be effected solely by acting on a freely projecting end of the sleeve, but this may not be sufficient for a large mass of the yarn package.

Corresponding problems arise in Garnspulmaschinen, in which the sleeve of the yarn package is held during the winding process in both end of a journal, the removal here requires first a disposal of a journal so that the inside of the H ülse is made accessible from this page. With a removed journal, the finished wound bobbin but supported with the whole weight only on the one remaining bearing pin whose storage is thus to be dimensioned accordingly.

A large mass of the winding also causes problems during transport and storage or storage of the yarn package. The high mass of the yarn package can already lead to a "sagging" of the winding as a result of the gravitational forces when the yarn package axis is oriented horizontally, resulting in undesirable runout the winding leads and can lead to tensions and undesirable strains in the yarn.

When the bobbin is pivoted during transport, the high mass of the winding gives rise to dynamic forces which, in the worst case, impair the winding pattern.

If the yarn bobbin has to be deposited on its lateral surface during transport or storage, as the weight of the yarn package increases, increasing surface pressures occur in the contact area of the winding, which can lead to damage to the yarn. For a solution to the problem underlying the invention, the use of a bobbin handling container for a yarn package for a technical yarn is proposed. The "handling", which can be done in the context of the invention by means of the yarn package handling container, consists in the winding of the yarn package. It is possible that the "handling" also includes receiving, storing and / or holding the yarn package during - the unwinding of the yarn package,

the removal of the yarn package from the spindle or yarn winder,

the transport of the yarn package,

a (Ab-) braking or Verriegeins the yarn package and / or

the stocking of the yarn package comprises.

The bobbin handling container according to the invention for a yarn package has a frame or housing. Opposite the frame or housing, a spindle is rotatably mounted in (at least) one bearing. Preferably, said bearing is a circumferentially closed bearing in which the spindle is permanently received and which thus supports the spindle in all radial directions to the spindle axis relative to the frame or housing. The bearing may be formed as a plain bearing, but while a rolling bearing is preferably used. According to the invention, therefore, the spindle is not mounted on the yarn winder, but on the yarn package handling Container. Here, the frame or the housing can be specifically adapted to the storage and acting on a large mass of the yarn package on the spindle loads. Possibly, for the inventive design, the bearings can be arranged closer to a front side of the yarn package than is the case for the storage of the spindle on the Garnspulmaschine. Thus, according to the invention, the bearing stresses can be reduced, and it can u. U. a reduced bending stress of the spindle can be ensured. It is also possible even that the spindle is mounted on both sides of the yarn package on the frame or housing, whereby the unfavorable in terms of mechanical stress "flying storage" can be eliminated. However, the embodiment according to the invention is also advantageous in terms of handling the yarn package with the removal, during transport and storage: removal, holding and transport forces can be applied directly to the Garnspulen handling container, without removal, holding and transport forces the yarn package and any sleeve must be applied. During transport or storage, the bobbin handling container may be parked on the frame or housing. It is also possible that during storage of the bobbin handling container is placed in a storage rack or ei ne arranging meh rere Garnspulen handling container next to each other in series and / or stacking of several Garnspulen handling containers one above the other. Also possible me is that a bobbin handling container is used several times, so that on this first a yarn package is wound, which then u. U. is handled at another location. Following this, the bobbin handling container can then be reused with the same spindle to wind a new bobbin on it, and so on.

For a generation of a drive movement for winding and / or unwinding of the yarn, there are many possibilities. For a particular proposal of the invention, the spindle has a spindle coupling element. The spindle coupling element is preferably arranged in an end region of the spindle projecting from the frame or housing. About the spindle-coupling element, the spindle with a Garnspulmaschinen- coupling element of a rotary drive a Garnspulmaschi ne such releasably verbu n be that the transmission of a drive torque of the rotary drive to the spindle. It is entirely possible that such a spindle coupling element is not used exclusively during the winding or unwinding of the yarn. Rather, the spindle coupling element can also be used for further handling of the yarn package. It is possible to For example, that on the spindle coupling element and transport forces are applied to the Garnspulen handling container. It is also possible that the spindle coupling element is used to rotate the yarn package in the yarn package handling container during stocking so that temporary gravitational forces acting in a circumferential area of the winding are circumferentially displaced.

For the type of training of the rotationally fixed connection between the spindle coupling element and the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element, there are a variety of known to those skilled in the ways. Thus, the coupling elements frictionally or positively transfer the drive torque.

For example, the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element may be formed with a splined shaft or a key of a drive pin of the rotary drive, while the spindle coupling element is formed with a spline inner profile or a keyway. Of course, any other form-fitting transmission cross sections of the spindle coupling element and the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element are possible.

A possible frictional engagement can by forming axial contact forces between the spindle coupling element and Garnspulmaschinen coupling element, u. U. also with a pressing of two contact cones to each other, or by forming a radial friction contact, for example by means of a radially outwardly spread expanding mandrel of the rotary drive, which is pressed against a hollow cylindrical inner surface of the spindle coupling element, be formed.

Here, the coupling between the spindle coupling element and the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element can be accomplished in any way. Preferably, this coupling takes place without the use of a tool, a screw u. Ä. For example, the positive or frictional clutch movement-controlled take place with approach of the yarn package handling container and thus the spindle coupling element to the Garn- Winder and thus the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element. During this approach, the Garnspulmaschinen-coupling element can enter into an end-side recess of the spindle coupling element (or vice versa).

In principle, the frame or the housing can be configured as desired. In a further embodiment of the invention, it is proposed that the frame or the housing has a supporting or holding region which serves for supporting or holding the yarn package handling container on a yarn winder. By way of example, this may be a contact area formed by the frame or housing which rests on a footprint of the yarn winder. However, it is also possible for the holding of the bobbin handling container on the bobbin winding machine to take place in a lateral, upper and / or frontal holding region.

Alternatively or cumulatively, it is possible for the frame or housing to have a handling area for handling the bobbin handling container. This is, for example, a handling area, via which application forces, removal forces or transport forces can be applied to the bobbin handling container. For example, a handling area can be designed as a hook, eye, lug for a means of transport. By way of non-limiting example, the bobbin handling container may also include a handling area in the form of a pickup shoe for the tines of a forklift truck. Alternatively or cumulatively, it is possible that the frame or the housing of the Garnspulen- handling container has a coupling region, in the region of which a coupling of the Garnspulen handling container with another Garnspulen handling container is possible. Here, the coupling can be done with a positive connection, a frictional connection or use of a coupling or fastening means. To mention only a non-limiting example, the coupling region may be formed with a projection or a recess, which engages or in which a form-fitting recess or a projection of an adjacent Garnspulen handling container. In this case, the coupling region is preferably suitably designed for a coupling of stacked yarn package handling containers and / or adjacent yarn package handling containers. Alternatively or cumulatively, it is possible that the frame or the housing has a guide unit. This guide unit can interact with the Garnspulmaschine to ensure proper approach of the spindle coupling element with the Garnspulmaschinen- coupling element and / or the coaxial alignment of the spindle with the rotary drive of the Garnspulmaschine when approaching the Garnspulen handling container to the Garnspulmaschine. It is also possible that the Garnspulmaschine is formed with guide rails with which the guide unit of the Garnspulen handling container interacts in order to guide the approach of the Garnspulen handling container to the Garnspulmaschine.

The bobbin handling container can be designed as any one-piece or multi-part assembly, possibly with components screwed together, welded or otherwise interconnected. For a particular proposal of the invention, the yarn package handling container is formed with a plurality of releasably interconnected components. By replacing components then an adjustment of the Garnspulen- handling container can be made to different requirements. To name just one example, a bobbin handling container may be formed with side panels or side struts of different lengths to accommodate the length of the bobbin handling container and thus the possible length of the bobbin. Correspondingly, end portions of the bobbin handling container may also be provided in different sizes to permit conversion of the bobbin handling container for bobbins of different diameters. It is also possible for spindles of different lengths and / or diameters to be used in the bobbin handling container, depending on the yarn package to be wound. Individual adjustment measures for the side parts or side struts, the front side parts and the spindles may, depending on the yarn, Garnspulmaschine, winding process, Spulbild, inserted traversing mechanism, drive the yarn package u. Ä. Be made.

For a further yarn package handling container according to the invention, the housing or the frame is not formed closed in the circumferential direction. Rather, the housing or the frame has an opening. This opening can be used, on the one hand, so that the yarn can enter the inside of the yarn bobbin handling container during winding of the yarn and / or the yarn can be led out of the interior of the yarn bobbin handling container during winding. It is also possible that in the area of the opening when using the yarn package handling container with a yarn winding machine, a traversing device, which is used for iridescent guiding of the yarn when laying on the spool, extends. For this purpose, the opening in a side region of the bobbin handling container is arranged with a minimum axial extent corresponding to the laying width of the yarn, which additionally extend the opening at least partially in the area of the Garnspulmaschine facing end side of the Garnspulen handling container. It is also possible that an opening extends continuously from a recess of one end face of the Garnspulen- handling container over the side region up to a recess of the other end side of the Garnspulen handling container. It is further possible that the opening is only temporarily open, in particular during winding and unwinding, while it is closable, in particular during transport and / or stocking, in order to prevent, for example, the entry of contaminants. In this case, the closure can be effected by a closure plate or flap or by a cover such as a tarpaulin or foil.

In the event that it should be ensured that during handling unintentional unwinding of the yarn does not occur, the invention proposes that in the bobbin handling container a braking device is present. In this context, a "braking device" in the sense of the invention includes both a frictional braking device and a positive-locking braking device, which may also be designed as a latching or locking device. The braking device acts between frame or housing and spindle or a possibly arranged on the spindle sleeve.

Preferably, the braking device is activated during transport of the Garnspulen- handling container. But it is also possible that the braking device is used to make a deceleration of the yarn package at the end of the winding process.

The actuation of said brake device can be arbitrary. To name just a few non-limiting examples, the operation of the braking device can be done manually by the operator. Also possible is the operation of the braking device by an actuator, which may be controlled for example by a control device of the Garnspulmaschine and / or a control device of the Garnspulen handling container. It is also possible that the braking device is released force-controlled when on the spindle from the Garnspulmaschine a drive torque is applied, which exceeds a predetermined threshold torque which is greater than any acting during handling moments that are responsible for unintentional unwinding of the yarn. For a particular proposal according to the invention, however, the braking device is actuated in a motion-controlled manner, "activation" being understood to mean activating the braking device and / or releasing the braking device. To name only a non-limiting example of such motion control of the braking device, the braking device may be activated, for example, by a spring for not coupled to the Garnspulmaschine Garnspulen handling container. With the approach of the yarn package handling container to the yarn winding machine (possibly also simultaneously with coupling of the spindle coupling element with the yarn winding machine coupling element), the braking device can then be automatically released by this approach, thus enabling a winding process. The same applies to an approach of the Garnspulen- handling container to the Garnspulmaschine to ensure unwinding. This embodiment has the advantage that with the removal of the bobbin handling container from the yarn winder or a device for unwinding the braking device is automatically operated, which is then also effective during transport and storage of the bobbin handling container. It is also possible that the movement-controlled actuation of the braking device takes place with the placement of the Garnspulen- handling container on the ground, for example, in the area of the footprint with the setting an actuating cam is actuated, which then activates or deactivates the braking device.

Compared to the frame or housing, the spindle can be mounted arbitrarily. So it is quite possible that the spindle is supported only on one side of the yarn package on the frame or housing (with any number and arrangement of the bearings on this side of the yarn package). In a further embodiment of the yarn bobbin handling container according to the invention, however, the spindle on the frame or housing on two sides of an axial portion of the spindle on which a yarn package can be arranged or is stored. To mention only a non-limiting example, a two-sided storage of the spindle in the two end regions of the spindle can be done on the front side parts of the frame or the housing. In the event that a plurality of yarn packages are mounted in a yarn package handling container on a spindle, a bearing of the spindle between adjacent axial sections for the yarn packages can be carried out. In principle, a yarn bobbin handling container according to the invention can be used for yarn bobbins of any desired masses. Preferably, however, the yarn bobbin handling container according to the invention is designed such that it can be determined for handling bobbins with a mass of the winding of more than 300 kg, in particular more than 500 kg, more than 800 kg or more than 1000 kg.

Another solution to the problem underlying the invention is given by a yarn winding machine, in which a winding station is formed without a spindle. Such a yarn winding machine is particularly suitable for use with a yarn package handling container, as has been previously explained. Thus, the yarn winder uses the spindle of the yarn package handling container. The transmission of the drive movement of the Garnspulmaschine on the spindle of the Garnspulen handling container can then be done using the spindle coupling element and the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element. In this case, the winding of several yarn bobbins on the same yarn winder takes place with the use of a plurality of yarn bobbin handling containers with respective spindles associated therewith. By contrast, the same traversing device (as well as possibly the same further devices as a catching device, a control device, a removal device, a drive unit, and the like) of the yarn winder can be used for these multiple winding processes

Such a yarn winder preferably has a rotary drive. The rotary drive has in this case, for example in the frontal region of a drive pin, a Garnspulmaschinen coupling element. The Garnspulmaschinen coupling element is, as described above, with a spindle-coupling element of a spindle, preferably the Garnspulen handling container, connectable to transmit a drive torque, this connection is solvable, which is done for example without tools or (as described above) motion controlled can.

According to a further yarn winding machine according to the invention this has a support or holding area for supporting or holding a yarn bobbin handling container on the yarn winder and / or a guide unit for guiding a yarn bobbin handling container relative to the yarn winder. In principle, what has been said about the support or holding area or the guide unit of the bobbin handling container applies to the support or holding area or the guide unit. Possible is, for example, that a guide unit of the Garnspulmaschine is formed with a kind of guided slide, on which a Garnspulen handling container is placed, in particular under exact position specification by corresponding projections, centering or other centering, and with which then the Garnspulen handling container the Garnspulmaschine and the drive pin of the rotary drive of the Garnspulmaschine can be approximated.

In the context of the invention, the Garnspulmaschine may have laterally next to a traversing device on a free receiving space, in the region of which for each winding a Garnspulen handling container can be arranged.

If a yarn bobbin handling container is to be used with the yarn winding machine, which has a braking device, the invention proposes that the yarn winding machine is equipped with a brake actuating device, by means of which the braking device of the yarn bobbin handling container can be actuated. If the braking device of the bobbin handling container is actuated, for example, by movement control, the brake actuating device can be designed as an actuating pin which exerts a releasing or activating force on the braking device as the bobbin handling container approaches the yarn winding machine.

In the event that a Garnspulmaschine is to be used for a Garnspulen handling container in which simultaneously several yarn packages can be wound, the invention proposes that in the Garnspulmaschine in a recessed receiving space for a Garnspulen handling container several traversing devices are arranged, each one of these traversing devices is responsible for winding a yarn package.

Preferably, the yarn winder is designed and intended for handling yarn packages having a mass of winding of more than 300 kg, in particular more than 500 kg or more than 800 kg. Here, the yarn package may have a drive and a control which ensures a constant feeding and winding speed of the yarn, regardless of the diameter of the winding, wherein the feeding and winding speed of the yarn is preferably greater than 40 m / min. A further solution of the object underlying the invention is given by a Garnspulmaschinen assembly in which a Garnspulmaschine of the type described above, together with at least one Garnspulen handling container of the type described above is used. Another solution according to the invention relates to a method for handling a yarn package. Preferably, this is a yarn package with a mass of the winding of more than 300 kg, in particular more than 500 kg or more than 800 kg.

In this method, in a first method step, provision is made of a yarn package handling container in the area of the yarn winder.

In a further method step, the coupling of the spindle coupling element of the yarn package handling container with the yarn winding machine coupling element takes place for the purpose of generating a drive-fixed connection, which can, for example, be motion-controlled, as has been described above.

In the next step of the process, the yarn package is wound on a spindle of the yarn package handling container.

When the yarn package is finished wound, the coupling of the spindle coupling element of the yarn package handling container is released with the yarn winding machine coupling element.

Finally, the removal of the yarn package handling container with the yarn package wound therein is carried out by the yarn winding machine, for example for further processing

Processing, transport or storage.

It is entirely possible that the said method steps are also carried out in a changed sequence or simultaneously. Thus, for example, the production of the coupling of the spindle coupling element of the yarn package handling container with the Garnspul- maschinen coupling element motion controlled simultaneously with the provision of Garnspulen handling container in the field of Garnmaschine. Accordingly, the solution of said coupling can take place during the removal of the yarn package handling container with the yarn package wound therein from the yarn winder.

During the mentioned process steps can u. U. supporting or holding areas, handling areas, coupling areas or guide units of the frame or housing Ses of the bobbin handling container and / or the Garnspulmaschine be used. During the approach between the yarn package handling container and the yarn winder, the yarn may be passed through an opening of the housing or frame of the yarn package handling container and / or a traversing device may enter such opening of the frame or housing of the yarn package handling container.

In a further embodiment of the method according to the invention, the brake device of the bobbin handling container is actuated, which is particularly motion-controlled with the provision of the bobbin handling container in the area of the bobbin winding machine,

with the production of the coupling between the spindle coupling element and the yarn winding machine coupling element,

the beginning and / or end of the winding process of the yarn package,

the release of the clutch and / or

the removal of the bobbin handling container can be done.

In a further embodiment of the method according to the invention a plurality of yarn packages are wound in Garnspulen handling containers successively. The bobbin handling containers are then stored in a storage device, which can be done side by side, for example, by stacking bobbin handling containers on each other and / or arrangement of bobbin handling containers, whereby it is also possible for the bobbin handling containers to be provided via suitable coupling areas and / or. elements can be coupled together.

For a particular proposal of the invention, in a further process step, the yarn bobbins which are arranged in the yarn bobbin handling containers, which in turn are stored in the storage device, are rotated. Such rotation can be done manually. This can be done intermittently or constantly. The application of the rotational movement of the yarn packages can also be done via the spindle coupling element or with other application of a rotary motion. Such a rotational movement of the yarn packages during storage takes place for the purpose that gravitational forces are not permanent to act on the winding in a peripheral region, but these wander in the circumferential direction with the rotation of the yarn packages.

For a further proposal, in the method the yarn is not taken out of the yarn package handling container for further use, but rather unwound from the yarn package in the yarn package handling container.

It is also possible that the yarn package is transported in the yarn package handling container, which can also be done in a land vehicle, a watercraft or by means of an aircraft.

It is possible to use the bobbin handling container for a storage device for yarn packages, which are in particular yarn packages with a mass of the winding of more than 300 kg, in particular more than 500 kg or more than 800 kg. Such a storage device may, for example, at a place of manufacture,

at a processing location,

- at a storage location,

on a vehicle,

on a ship,

on a train or

be arranged on an airplane. In the storage device, the bobbins are arranged in each case in Garnspulen handling containers. The storage device is formed with an arrangement of Garnspulen- handling container in rows and / or stacking the Garnspulen handling container to each other.

It is also possible that the storage device has a rotating device. With the rotating device, the yarn packages in the Garnspulen handling containers are rotated. In this case, the twisting of the bobbins can successively take place one after the other, for example, in that a rotary drive successively engages in the respective spindle coupling elements of the bobbin handling containers and in each case rotates by a predetermined amount. given angle of rotation causes. But it is also possible that in the bobbin handling containers, the spindle coupling elements, spindles or bobbins are coupled together so that they can be rotated together. For example, the rotating device may be formed with a chain or a rack, which interacts with the lateral surface of the spindle, a drive element of the spindles or the spindle coupling element in such a way that movement of the chain or rack results in the common rotation of all yarn packages.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

1 shows a yarn package handling container 1 with a yarn package 2. The yarn package handling container 1 is formed with two end side parts 3, 4 and side parts 5. The front side parts 3, 4 and the side parts 5 form a housing or a frame 6. In the first rough approximation, the housing or the frame 6 is cuboid, wherein for the illustrated embodiment, the frame or the housing "skeletal" are formed with large-area openings, which is particularly the weight reduction. For the illustrated embodiment, the side parts 5 are formed with side struts 7a, 7b, 7c, which are rod-shaped here, as a solid or hollow profile or as a circular profile. The side struts 7 are arranged in the region of the longitudinal edges of the cuboid housing or frame 6. It is entirely possible that in the region of a side edge of the cuboidal housing or frame 6 no side strut 7 is arranged (cf., FIG. 1). The side struts 7 are frontally screwed respectively to the end side parts 3, 4, whereby the housing or the frame 6 is rigid. For the illustrated embodiment, the end side parts 3, 4 with a horizontal lower strut 8, a horizontal upper strut 9 and a "X" forming connecting struts 10, 1 1, which opposite end portions of the struts 8, 9 connected to each other formed. In the crossing region of the connecting struts 10, 1 1, a storage area 12 is formed, which may be reinforced or extended. In the storage areas 12 of the end side parts 3, 4 each have bearings 13, 14, a spindle 15, which extends through the yarn package 2 through, stored. A winding 16 may be wound directly on the spindle 15 or with the interposition of a Garnspulenkörpers such as a sleeve. With one or both end regions, the Spi ndel 1 5 du rch the storage area 12 extends at least one end face part 3, 4. The projecting out of the front side portion 4 outward end portion of the spindle 15 forms a spindle coupling element 17, which in Fig. 1 only is shown schematically. The housing or the frame 6 form the side of the yarn package 2 in height of the longitudinal and rotational axis 53 of the spindle 1 5 an opening 18 through which the yarn package 2 and without winding 1 6, the spindle 1 5 are freely accessible. On the side facing the floor, the undersides of the end-side parts 3, 4 (and, in some circumstances, of the side parts 5) also form a support region 19. It is also possible that in the support areas 19 projections 37 or depressions are provided. On the upper side, the front side parts 3, 4 (and possibly the side parts 5) have recesses 20 for the illustrated embodiment. If several bobbin handling containers 1 are stacked on one another, projections 37 can be provided in the support areas 19 of a first yarn bobbin handling container 1 arranged second bobbin handling container 1 positively engage in the recesses 20 of the arranged below the first bobbin handling container. 1

FIG. 2 shows a yarn winder assembly 21. The yarn winding machine assembly 21 is formed with a yarn package handling container 1 shown in FIG. 1 and a yarn winder 22, which is here designed to simplify the illustration only with a winding station. 2, the Garnspulmaschine 22 is shown only schematically. It can be seen here, however, that the yarn winding machine 22 is formed with a traversing device 28 and a feeding device for the yarn, which has a plurality of rollers and dancer arms 23, 24, 25. The yarn winding machine 22 has a support region 26. It is possible that the yarn package handling container 1 rests with the support region 19 on the support region 26 of the yarn winder 22. Here, a centering and / or positive securing the position of the bobbin handling container 1 relative to the Garnspulmaschine 22 by interaction of projections 37 and depressions in the support areas 19, 26 take place. As will be explained in more detail below, the spindle coupling element 17 is rotatably coupled to a Garnspulmaschinen coupling element 27 so that a drive of the Garnspulmaschine 22, the rotation of the spindle 15 and yarn package 2 of the Garnspulen handling containers 1 can bring about. Thus, for the yarn winder assembly 21, by operating the yarn winder 22, namely driving the yarn winder clutch member 27 and feeding and applying the yarn over the rollers and dancer arms 23 to 25 and the traversing mechanism 28, a winding 16 of the yarn package 2 can be produced. After completion of the winding 16 of the yarn package handling container 1 with the housing or frame 6 and the spindle 15 and yarn package 2 is then removed from the Garnspulmaschine 22.

Fig. 3 shows an alternative embodiment of a yarn package handling container 1, in which all side edges of the cuboid housing or frame 6 in the first approximation are formed with side struts 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d. Here, the front side parts 3, 4 are formed with solid plates 29, 30, which are basically rectangular or square and are connected in the region of their corners with the side struts 7. For this embodiment, the arranged in Fig. 3 on the back opening 18 extends not only in the side region of the cuboid housing or frame 6. Rather, have the plates 29, 30 here U-shaped cutouts 31, extending from the storage area 12 at the level of the axis of rotation the spindle 15 extend to the outside. It can be seen in Fig. 3 that the plates 29, 30 recesses 32, 33 may have, which u. U. open into recesses or a hollow interior of the side struts 7. With these recesses 32, 33 handling areas 34, 35 are formed, which allow the handling of the bobbin handling container 1. For example, in the handling areas 34, 35 trunnions are introduced, by means of which a lifting of the bobbin handling container 1 is possible. In Fig. 3 it can also be seen that additional stiffening struts 36 may be present. These serve in particular for the rigid support of the bearing area 12 for the bearings 13, 14. In FIG. 4, the projections 37, in this case pins, can be seen in the support area 19. The projections 37 can serve to ensure a form-fitting, positionally accurate arrangement of the yarn package handling container 1 in the support region 26 of the yarn winder 22 or on a carriage 63, including the projections 37 in recesses with a corresponding cross section of the support region 26 of the yarn winder 22 or the Schlit- at least 63. If a plurality of bobbin handling containers 1 are stacked on one another for storage or during transport, the projections 37 of a yarn package can be stacked on top of each other. reel-handling container 1 in the recesses 20 on the top of an underlying arranged Garnspulen handling container 1.

In the longitudinal section of FIG. 4 it can be seen that the bearing portions 12 are formed for the bearings 13, 14 with bearing rings 38, 39, with the end face parts 3, 5, the plates 29, 30, the connecting struts 10, 1 1 and / or the stiffening struts 36 are welded, integrally formed by these or otherwise firmly connected thereto. On a hollow cylindrical inner surface of the bearing rings 38, 39, the bearings 13, 14 are radially outwardly supported. Radial inside is based on the bearings, 13, 14, the spindle 15 in their end regions. For the illustrated embodiment, the spindle coupling element 17 is formed with a hollow cylindrical inner surface 40 of the spindle 15. For the illustrated embodiment, the spindle 15 is formed as a hollow shaft. As will be explained in more detail below, there is a frictional transmission of a drive torque to the spindle 15 via the spindle coupling element 17 by a drive pin 52 of the yarn winder 22 or a friction element 58 of the drive pin 52 radially outwardly against the cylindrical inner surface 40 of the spindle 15th is pressed.

As an optional further component Fig. 4 shows a braking device 41 of the Garnspulen- handling container 1. For the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the braking device 41 is formed with an elastic friction body 42 which rotates with the spindle 15 and to generate the Bremswirku against the Frame or the housing 6, here a hollow cylindrical inner surface 43 of the bearing ring axially adjacent to the bearing 14, is braced. For this purpose, an actuating element 44, here likewise a hollow shaft 45, is guided axially displaceably radially inwardly from the spindle 15 designed as a hollow shaft. For the illustrated embodiment, the guide of the hollow shaft 45 via the spaced inside the spindle 15 fixed to the spindle 15 guide rings 46, 47. In the outwardly projecting out of the guide ring 46 end portion of the hollow shaft 45 carries the elastic friction body 42, which also here is designed as a ring body. Here, the elastic friction body 42 is supported on the outer side on a support ring 48, which is supported by the hollow shaft 45. In the opposite end region, the hollow shaft 45 carries a contact and support disk 49. Between the guide ring 47 and the contact and support disk 49, a brake spring 50 surrounding the hollow shaft 45 radially outboard is caught. The brake spring 50 is biased so that it acts on the hollow shaft 45 so that on the support ring 48 of the elastic friction body 42 is pressed against the guide ring 46 and is elastically deformed such that the elastic friction body 42 expands radially outward, whereby it is pressed against the hollow cylindrical inner surface 43 of the bearing ring 49 to generate the braking action. Occurs with approach of the bobbin handling container 1 to a drive pin 52 of a yarn winder 22 of the drive pin 52 in the interior of the spindle 15, the drive pin pushes the contact and Abstützscheibe 49 and thus the hollow shaft 45, the support ring 48 and the elastic friction body 42 against the application by the brake spring 50 in Fig. 4 to the left. With the thus caused movement, the elastic friction body 42 relaxes, whereby the frictional force between the elastic friction body 42 and the inner surface 43 of the bearing ring 39 is reduced and eliminated and the braking device 41 is released. The entry of the drive pin 52 for releasing the braking device 41 can be used simultaneously to bring about the drive-fixed connection between the drive pin 52 and the spindle 15 via the coupling of the spindle coupling element 17 with the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element 27.

5 shows a spatial representation of the yarn winding machine assembly 21 with the yarn winding machine 22 and a yarn package handling container 1, FIGS. 6 and 7 showing the yarn winding machine assembly 21 with a partial longitudinal section, namely FIG. 6 before releasing the braking device 41 and before the coupling of the spindle coupling element 17 with the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element 27 and Fig. 7 after the release of the braking device 41 and after the coupling of the spindle coupling element 17 with the Garnspulmaschinen- Kupp- element 27th

During the approach of the bobbin handling container 1 to the yarn winder 22, the yarn bobbin handling container 1 is guided by a guide means 51. With the aid of the feeding, the bobbin handling container is guided in such a manner that the approach to the yarn winder 22 with coaxial orientation of the drive journal 52 of the yarn winder 22 to the longitudinal and rotational axis 53 of the spindle 15 takes place. It is possible that the guide device 51 has two guide units 54, which are designed here as a guide rail 55. The guide rails 55 are oriented parallel to the axis of rotation of the drive pin 52. The bobbin handling container 1 may have four guide units 56 in its support area 19. Two guide units 56 each are assigned to a guide rail 55. The guide units 56 engage around the guide rail 55 in a form-fitting manner, so that a guidance of the movement of the yarn package handling container 1 relative to the yarn package Machine 22 is done. For the embodiment shown here but has the Garnspulmaschine 22 a carriage 63, on the underside of the guide units 56 are arranged and with the guide rails 55 interact. The bobbin handling container 1 is supported by the support area 19 on the carriage 63, wherein a centering or positive position assurance by entering the projections 37 of the bobbin handling container 1 can be made in corresponding recesses of the carriage 63.

With the approach of the yarn package handling container 1 to the yarn winder 22, the drive pin 52 enters the yarn package handling container 1, here the inside of the spindle 15 (see transition from Fig. 6 to Fig. 7). This movement of the bobbin handling container 1 is caused by an external handling device. However, it is also possible for the yarn package handling container 1 to be brought into operative connection with the guide device 51, while at least part of the approaching movement is brought about by a drive device (not shown here) of the guide device 51 or of the carriage 63 Entry of the drive pin 52 is actuated (as described above) of the drive pin 52, which thus forms a brake actuator 57, the brake device 41, whereby a release of the brake device 41 takes place. Before, with or after the release of the braking device 41, the yarn winding machine coupling element 27, which is here formed by the drive pin 52, is coupled to the spindle coupling element 17. Here, the Garnspulmaschinen coupling element 27 is formed as a friction member 58 which is acted upon radially outwardly against the hollow cylindrical inner surface 40 of the spindle 15. It is possible that the friction element 58 is also formed as an elastic friction body, which is axially compressed by axial loading via an actuator with a concomitant radial expansion. In the state brought about in FIG. 7, the braking device 41 is released and via the contact of the friction element 58 with the spindle 15 there is a drive-proof coupling of the drive pin 52 to the spindle 15. The rotationally fixed coupling between the drive pin 52 and the hollow shaft 45 can by the frictional contact between the end face of the drive pin 52 and the contact and Abstützscheibe 49 and / or by a positive connection of the cross sections of the hollow shaft 45 and the guide rings 46, 47, which allows the required axial movement of the hollow shaft 45, guaranteed. Fig. 8 shows in detail the braking device 41 with the bearing 14 between the bearing ring 39 and an end portion of the spindle 15 (detail Vil la) and the brake actuator 57 with the bearing 13 between the bearing ring 38 and the other end of the spindle 15 with frictionally coupled Spindle coupling element 17 and Garnspulmaschinenkupplung element 27 (detail Vlllb).

In a representation corresponding to FIG. 8, FIG. 9 shows a modified embodiment in which a frictionally engaged braking device 41 is not used, but rather a form-locking braking device 41, which can also be referred to as a locking device (see detail Ixa). In this case, the hollow shaft 45 carries in the protruding from the guide ring 46 end portion instead of the support ring 48 and the elastic friction body 42, a locking body 59, the effective surface is formed non-circular. For example, the locking body 59 may be formed with grooves, projections or as a locking toothing. The bearing ring 39 also forms on its radially inner side of a locking body 60 or carries this. With actuation of the brake actuator 57 is the locking body 59 so far pushed out of the bearing ring 39 with the hollow shaft 45 that the locking body 59, 60 have no axial overlap, which no locking or braking takes place and the spindle 15 is freely rotatable. Without actuation of the brake actuator 57, so for removed from the bobbin handling container 1 drive pin 52, the hollow shaft 45 moves due to the brake spring 50, the locking body 60 in the locking body 59, whereby a positive locking or braking takes place. U. U. the locking body 59, 60 also have chamfers, which allow the lock not only at defined angular orientations of the locking body 59, 60.

According to detail IXb, the coupling between the spindle coupling element 17 and the yarn winding machine coupling element 27 likewise takes place in a form-fitting manner. Here the yarn winding machine coupling element 27 associated with the drive pin 52 is formed with projections, ribs or splines 61. Accordingly, the spindle 15 is formed in the region of a recess or the inner surface with recesses, grooves or a spline 62 in the associated end region. With the introduction of the drive pin 52, the projections, recesses, ribs, grooves or splines 61, 62 interact positively in order to form a drive-proof connection. Again, chamfers can be provided. Notwithstanding FIGS. 8 and 9, it is also possible for the braking device 41 to be based on a friction fit, while the coupling between the spindle coupling element 17 and the yarn winding machine coupling element 27 is based on a form fit (or vice versa).

FIG. 10 shows the storage of a plurality of bobbin handling containers 1 in a storage device 64. In this case, a plurality of bobbin handling containers 1 are stacked in stacks 65, with a plurality of such stacks 65 being arranged directly next to one another, so that the bobbin handling containers 1 are also arranged in a plurality of superimposed rows 66 are arranged. In this case, adjacent bobbin handling containers 1 can be connected to one another, for which purpose, for example, projections 37 on the underside of a bobbin handling container 1 can engage in recesses 20 on the upper side of a bobbin handling container 1 arranged thereunder.

For the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 11 and 12, a handling device or rotating device 67 is provided in the region of the storage device 64. The rotary device 67 has a drive pin 68. The drive pin 68 is equipped with a rotary device coupling element 69, which is preferably designed in accordance with the yarn winding machine coupling element 27. By means of suitable actuators, the rotary device 67 can be arranged in the region of each bobbin handling container 1 of the storage device 64. The drive pin 68 can then be aligned coaxially with the longitudinal and rotational axis 53 of the spindle 15 of the bobbin handling container. The drive pin 68 will then be inserted into the yarn package handling container 1 so that the rotary device coupling element 69 is coupled to the spindle coupling element 17 (frictional or positive locking) in a manner fixed to drive. With simultaneous solution of the braking device 51 of this Garnspulen handling container 1 can then be done by driving the rotator 67 with predetermined rotation angle of the drive pin 68, a twisting of the yarn package 2 in the Garnspulen handling container 1 to avoid adverse effects on the winding due to permanently acting gravitational forces. In this way, the turning of all the yarn packages 2 in the yarn package handling containers 1 takes place successively. In the event that 64 bobbin handling containers 1 of different types are arranged in a storage device, the rotating device 67 can also be equipped with different drive pins 68 and / or rotary device coupling elements 69, which are then used selectively. Preferably, the use of the yarn package handling container 1 according to the invention, the yarn package assembly 21 and the method in connection with the production of carbon fibers, including viscose may be used. For this purpose, first a fibrous carbonaceous starting material is prepared, which is in particular polyacrylonitrile (PAN) or so-called "precursor". This fibrous carbonaceous raw material is wound into a yarn package, stored as a yarn package and then unwound for further processing. Here, further processing is pyrolysis (oxidation and carbonization) during which the fibrous carbonaceous feedstock is converted to graphitized carbon. Preferably, the yarn is a multifilament, which can be composed of more than 12,000 individual filaments (this is also known as 12 K). It is possible that between 12,000 and 300,000 individual filaments are present in the yarn cross-section. If, for example, a 500 kg spool is used with a PAN fiber sliver with 12 K single filaments, the length of the yarn may be 305,000 m, while for a yarn bobbin with a mass of 1,000 kg this length is 610,000 m. The resulting weight / length is (1,640 g) / (1,000 m) or 14,760 g [9,000 m]. Preferably, the yarn is bendable. The yarn package 2 is preferably equipped with a cross winding. The feed rate of the yarn is preferably more than 50 m / min. For example, the diameter of a sleeve or the outer diameter of the spindle 15 may be at least 150 mm. This results in a speed of about 106 min ^-1 for the beginning of the winding process. The maximum diameter of the winding 16 may be 1 .200 mm or even more. This results in a speed of 13.3 min ^-1 at the end of the winding process. Deviations from the abovementioned values by +/- 20%, +/- 10% or +/- 5% are likewise possible Forming the yarn winder 22 with traversing device 28 with yarn bobbin handling container 1 resting during winding or unwinding is also possible for the yarn bobbin handling container 1 to be moved while the yarn is fed stationarily without the use of a traversing device 28. For the illustrated embodiments The spindle 15 is mounted in both end areas in the bearings 13, 14 on the front side parts 3, 4. It is quite possible for the bearing to be freely cantilevered from one end side part a "flying load" of such a one-sided bearing on a front side part 3, 4, the front side part 3, 4 rigidly carries a pin which extends into the interior of a spindle 15 designed as a hollow shaft. Between spindle 15 and the end portion of this pin can then act at least one bearing. It is advantageous here if the at least one bearing is then in the axial region of the center of gravity of the yarn package 2. Preferably, in this case, said pin is arranged on the drive-side end portion 3, while the spindle 15 extends with the spindle coupling element 17 from the other end face part 4 out.

It is also possible that in principle the spindle 15 or an associated sleeve rests with its own weight on a leading lateral surface, whereby basically a rotation due to the dead weight is excluded and thus a braking device is formed. With coupling of the bobbin handling container 1 to the yarn winder 22, a pressurization of air bearings in the region of the leading lateral surface can then take place, whereby then the rotational degree of freedom of the spindle 15 or associated sleeve is released.

Also, a handling device for handling the handling container 1 u. For conventional yarn packages 2, the handling device must have a spindle or a stationary pin on which the yarn package 2 has to be pushed by the spindle of the winding machine, for handling the handling container 1 according to the invention, the handling device not equipped with a spindle. Rather, such a handling device occurs only with the housing or frame 6 of the handling container 1, the braking device 41, any holding areas, the support region 1 9, protrusions 37 or recesses and / or handling areas 34, 35 in operative connection. It is also possible that such a handling device has a coupling element which can come into operative connection with the spindle coupling element 17 of the handling container.

If a bearing of the spindle 15 only takes place on one end face part 3, 4, the other end face part 4 can also be dispensed with, whereby a removal of the yarn package 2 from the handling container 1 is also possible. It is also possible that the handling container 1 itself has a drive for the spindle 15 or a traversing device, which are then suitably controlled by coupling with the winder 22 by this. The opening 18 can also be used to ensure that a traversing yarn guide of the traversing device 28 can be guided as close as possible to the yarn package 2, so that the shortest possible drag path of the yarn from the traversing yarn guide of the traversing device 28 to the depositing location on the yarn package 2 results positively affects the quality of the bobbin. It is also possible that this embodiment allows the use of a pressure roller on the traversing device 28, which fixes the deposited yarn on the yarn package 2 and contributes to the solidification of the yarn package 2. After completion of the winding process, the traversing device 28 is again removed from the opening 18 in the radial direction to allow the disassembly of the handling container 1 of the Garnspulmaschine 22.

The unwinding of the bobbin 2 can be analogous to winding on a unwinding Garnspulmaschine 22, which is in particular formed without traversing device, take place, in which case it is conceivable that the yarn package 2 is driven during unwinding or also braked. In this case, the transmission of the driving or braking rotary element can take place via the spindle coupling element 17 of the yarn package handling container 1. Preferably, the yarn package 2 without a drum, in particular a drum with the end faces of the winding 16 limiting drum discs formed.

The invention finds use with the automated winding and / or unwinding of a technical yarn. In particular, a controlled drive is used. Special measures may be taken at the handling container 1 and / or the yarn winding machine 22 for catching the yarn at the beginning of the winding process. Thus, for example, the handling container 1 with a fishing hook, a clamping device o. Ä. Be equipped, by means of which catching and fixing of the supplied yarn can take place, the creation of a so-called fixing winding can be done u. Ä. Here, an automatic feed of the yarn can be done. It is also possible that the yarn is fed manually at the beginning of the winding process.

In the bobbin handling container 1, any other, not shown here components may be present. By way of example only, the bobbin handling container 1 may be provided with a receiving body for documentation material, such as yarn, processing and manufacturing process of the yarn, date of manufacture, transport route, customs information or Use for the yarn u. Ä., Be equipped. It is also possible that corresponding information is stored on a data carrier of the bobbin handling container, which can be wired or wirelessly described and / or read. It is also possible that the yarn package handling container is designed with an electronic control unit which operates autonomously or is networked with the connection of the yarn package handling container 1 with a yarn winder 22 with an electronic control unit of the yarn winder 22. For example, the control of an actuator for the braking device 41 can take place via such an electronic control unit of the bobbin handling container 1. The bobbin handling container 1 may also have a battery or an accumulator. Any other components may also be provided in or on the bobbin handling container 1, in particular in the region of the housing or frame 6.
