Reeling device and reeling method

Abstract

A reeling device includes: a left spool body; a right spool body; and a yarn transfer mechanism. A first rotation axis of the left spool body and a second rotation axis of the right spool body are parallel to each other, and a position of the left spool body around which the yarn-shaped body is to be wound and a position of the right spool body around which the yarn-shaped body is to be wound are arranged side by side on a first imaginary plane orthogonal to the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis. After a hollow yarn collection is formed in the left spool body, a yarn-shaped body leading portion of the yarn transfer mechanism moves the yarn-shaped body from the left spool body to the right spool body along the first imaginary plane.

1 . A reeling device that reels a yarn-shaped body, the reeling device comprising:
 a first spool body rotatable about a first rotation axis;   a second spool body rotatable about a second rotation axis; and   a yarn transfer portion capable of moving the yarn-shaped body between the first spool body and the second spool body, wherein   the first rotation axis of the first spool body and the second rotation axis of the second spool body are parallel to each other, and a position of the first spool body around which the yarn-shaped body is to be wound and a position of the second spool body around which the yarn-shaped body is to be wound are arranged side by side on an imaginary plane orthogonal to the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis, and   after a collection of the yarn-shaped body reeled a predetermined number of times is formed in the first spool body, a yarn-shaped body leading portion of the yarn transfer portion moves a yarn from the first spool body to the second spool body along the imaginary plane.   
     
     
         2 . The reeling device according to  claim 1 , wherein each of the first spool body and the second spool body has a polygonal shape. 
     
     
         3 . The reeling device according to  claim 2 , wherein each vertex of the first spool body and the second spool body is provided with a vertex grasping mechanism that grasps the collection of the yarn-shaped body having been reeled. 
     
     
         4 . The reeling device according to  claim 1 , wherein an internal grasping mechanism that grasps the yarn-shaped body sent from the yarn transfer portion is provided in each of the first spool body and the second spool body. 
     
     
         5 . The reeling device according to  claim 1 , wherein the reeling device reels the yarn-shaped body by rotating the first spool body and the second spool body in opposite rotation directions when viewed in a direction in which each of the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis extends. 
     
     
         6 . The reeling device according to  claim 1 , wherein the reeling device is capable of simultaneously switching the reeling of the yarn-shaped body in two or more rows. 
     
     
         7 . A method of reeling a yarn-shaped body using the reeling device according to  claim 1 , the method comprising:
 a first step of reeling the yarn-shaped body in the first spool body;   a second step of moving the yarn-shaped body to the second spool body by the yarn transfer portion; and   a third step of reeling the yarn-shaped body in the second spool body.
