Abstract

Abstract A clamping head is equipped with angular spreading bodies which engage a winding core. Impingement of the winding core end face on a stop moves the spreading bodies longitudinally on a bevel of the clamping head core against spring force, thereby spreading the spreading bodies so as to engage the inside circumference of the winding core. To that end, the clamping head features a sleeve-shaped part which centers the winding core and is provided with longitudinally extending slots for the angular spreading bodies. A shank of each spreading body, extends radially outward, forms at least indirectly the stop for the winding core end face. Longitudinally movable in the slot, the other shank of the spreading body has a projection which protrudes radially inward and interacts with the bevel of the clamping head core so as to cause the shank to move beyond the peripheral surface of the sleeve-shaped part as the projection runs onto the bevel. The clamping head secures the winding core in both nonpositive and form-fitting fashion in that the spreading body shanks dig into the winding core. It is distinguished by a design from components which are relatively simple to manufacture and of which the spreading bodies exposed to wear can be replaced easily.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 223 words
A clamping head for a winding core on which web type material is wound, said winding core having an end face and an inner circumference, said clamping head comprising: a cylindrical clamping head core having a conic bevel; a sleeve-shaped part disposed on and fixed relative to said clamping head core and having a peripheral contact surface for engaging and centering said winding core, said sleeve-shaped part having a plurality of longitudinally extending slots distributed circumferentially at least approximately uniformly; a plurality of spreading bodies, each having a first shank in a respective slot of said sleeve-shaped part and a second shank extending radially outwardly, the first shank having an inwardly protruding projection; and a stop ring disposed on said sleeve-shaped part and arranged coaxially with the clamping head axis and connected to the second shank of each of said plurality of spreading bodies, said stop ring being movable against spring force; the spreading bodies being movable longitudinally by impingement of the end face of said winding core on said stop ring, the first shanks thereof being spreadable as to move beyond the peripheral contact surface of said sleeve-shaped part and make contact with the inside circumference of said winding core by the run-on action of the inwardly protruding projection of each spreading body onto the conic bevel of said clamping head core.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 223 words
A clamping head for a winding core on which web type material is wound, said winding core having an end face and an inner circumference, said clamping head comprising: a cylindrical clamping head core having a conic bevel; a sleeve-shaped part disposed on and fixed relative to said clamping head core and having a peripheral contact surface for engaging and centering said winding core, said sleeve-shaped part having a plurality of longitudinally extending slots distributed circumferentially at least approximately uniformly; a plurality of spreading bodies, each having a first shank in a respective slot of said sleeve-shaped part and a second shank extending radially outwardly, the first shank having an inwardly protruding projection; and a stop ring disposed on said sleeve-shaped part and arranged coaxially with the clamping head axis and connected to the second shank of each of said plurality of spreading bodies, said stop ring being movable against spring force; the spreading bodies being movable longitudinally by impingement of the end face of said winding core on said stop ring, the first shanks thereof being spreadable as to move beyond the peripheral contact surface of said sleeve-shaped part and make contact with the inside circumference of said winding core by the run-on action of the inwardly protruding projection of each spreading body onto the conic bevel of said clamping head core.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 48 words
A clamping head according to claim 1, in which the first shank of the spreading body has in an area adjacent the second shank a cross-sectional reduction to increase the bending elasticity of the first shank, the projection being arranged on the free end of the first shank.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
A clamping head according to claim 1, in which the first shank of the spreading body is provided with a longitudinally extending toothing on the side coordinated with the inside circumference of the winding core.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 47 words
A clamping head according to claim 3, in which the first shank of the spreading body has in an area adjacent the second shank a cross-sectional reduction to increase the bending elasticity of the first shank, the projection being arranged-on the free end of the first shank.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 65 words
A clamping head according to claim 1, in which the clamping head has a collar which is fixed relative to the sleeve-shaped part and in which parallel with the clamping head axis there are screws installed, each of which supports a compression spring which, at one end, bears on the collar and, at the other end, bears on the second shank of a spreading body.
