Abstract: In a yarn winding apparatus, yarn is fed from a spinning frame or the like at high speed, and is wound on bobbins. Shifting of yarn from a full to an empty bobbin is carried out smoothly. A plurality of bobbins is fitted on a revolving arm, and each individual bobbin is positively driven from an independent power source.A plurality of independent drives are installed on the back of the revolving mechanism and bobbins are fitted on its front. Intermediate shafts are installed concentrically with a rotatory shaft which is a part of the revolving mechanism, and pass through the revolving mechanism. Rotary power is transmitted from each independent drive to each individual bobbin by these intermediate shafts.
