Abstract: Spool for receiving wound skein material with a rotationally symmetrical conical spool body (10) with a detachable flange disc (14) at the end with the smaller diameter, in which the flange disc (14) and spool body (10) have ring surfaces (18, 20) on their facing surfaces, locking projections (20, 22) extend from the ring surface of one or both part(s) in the direction of the other ring surface, detent recesses (24, 26) to receive the locking projections are provided in the ring surface of one or both part(s), the locking projections and detent recesses can be locked in the manner of a bayonet catch by mutually rotating the spool body and the flange disc, and aligned with the detent recesses are spring-loaded tongues (38) which engage behind the locking projections in the connected position of the parts, and prevent the parts from untwisting.
