Abstract: An automatic positioning group in a machine for winding plastic film onto bobbins that determines the correct position of an operative oscillating element with respect to a core such as a bobbin of a film having a different diameter sizes, wherein the operative oscillating element is supported at first free ends of levers hinged on pins associated with a frame of the winding machine and oscillated by a related actuator. The levers extend, in an opposite position to the ends carrying the operative oscillating element into appendices which collaborate with at least one pair of abutments positioned on a respective cam rotated with respect to the frame by an actuator, wherein each of the abutments is positioned on the cam with a different radial dimension with respect to a rotation axis of the rotating cam. The operative oscillating element can consist of a contact roll or a cutting blade.

Abstract: A holding and supporting group of a winding spindle in a machine for winding plastic film onto spools includes a winding reel positioned between two uprights, wherein a first upright carries a rotating plate which cantilever-supports three spindles and a central shaft, wherein the central shaft is supported at the other end by the second upright, wherein, in correspondence with a free end of the central shaft, there is a star-shaped plate with three supporting arms for each free end of the three spindles through a respective toggle lever mechanism driven by an actuator carried on a lever articulated with respect to the star-shaped plate, and in turn caused to oscillate between an operative blocking position of the respective spindle and a rest position for releasing the respective spindle by an additional actuator.

Abstract: An accompanying squeezing unit in a machine for winding plastic film onto bobbins, in which at least two spindles are positioned on a rotating plate around a central shaft constrained to an upright of the machine, the group including an accompanying squeezing roll situated on a lever mechanism which is selectively actuated to rotate-oscillate by actuators in order to maintain the squeezing roll positioned on a film in the final winding onto a bobbin positioned on one of the spindles, the lever mechanism being activated when the plate carrying the spindles is rotated to discharge a finished bobbin. The lever mechanism in the group includes two first levers and two second levers articulated relative to each other.

Abstract: A tubular support for winding a material in sheet form includes a corrugated tubular element, wherein the corrugated tubular element is positioned inside at least one outer coating element in sheet form. The internal corrugated tubular element has outer longitudinal portions and inner longitudinal portions connected by annular radial walls which form an inner corrugated wall. The internal corrugated tubular element and the outer coating element in sheet form are connected at the outer longitudinal portions. In a different embodiment, a corrugated tubular element is positioned between two coating elements in sheet form, in outer and internal positions respectively.

Abstract: A winding plant for use in plastic film production lines comprises a plurality of reels (11-14) connected to a star-like reel carrier (15) rotatable around its own axis. According to the invention, said reels (11-14) are arranged around said star-like reel carrier (15) in a manner such that at least a first reel (12) of said plurality of reels is situated in an operative winding position of a film (20) to form a complete roll (21). Said reels (11-14) each comprise a mandrel (26) supported by a tailstock associated with a flange element (16) comprising at least a first and a second notch (23,24), wherein said flange element (16) is rotatable around its own axis in a manner independent from said star-like reel carrier (15) when said tails tocks are released from said mandrels (26), so to bring said first notch (23) to a second unloaded reel (13) and said second notch (24) to a third reel (14) loaded with a roll (21) of film (20).
