Abstract

L’invention concerne un support de bobine destiné à monter une douille de bobine (36) et à recevoir une bobine de fil enroulée. Le support de bobine présente à cet effet un arbre d’entraînement rotatif (1) qui est relié par une extrémité de palier avec un mécanisme d’entraînement (32) et qui présente à une extrémité de serrage un dispositif de serrage (4) pour le serrage d’une douille de bobine. Le dispositif de serrage (4) présente plusieurs douilles de serrage (5.2, 5.3) sur le pourtour de l’arbre d’entraînement (1) et des bagues de serrage (6.1) interposées entre elles. Un piston de serrage (7) guidé à l’extrémité libre (2) de l’arbre d’entraînement agit ici sur au moins l’une des douilles de serrage pour déformer les bagues de serrage. Pour pouvoir utiliser des matériaux les plus résistants possible pour la bague de serrage, conformément à l’invention, celle-ci présente sur son pourtour une fente de séparation (20) continue qui s’étend entre deux extrémités de bague opposées (21.1, 21.2) de la bague de serrage. La déformation est ainsi obtenue essentiellement par un écartement de la bague de serrage.
