Abstract
An improved quick-change winding form assembly in which the support is divided into two parts, one part comprising a bearing collar, being connected to a bearing at the front of the flier assembly, and the other part comprising a mounting plate connected to the winding form or shroud. A pair of bayonet pins having enlarged heads is carried by the bearing collar and engages a pair of arcuate key slots extending through the mounting plate. The bayonet pins engage the arcuate key slots when the bearing collar is rotated relative to the mounting plate until a pair of spring biased balls mounted on the bearing collar enter recesses in the rear face of the mounting plate. Disassembly can be accomplished by simply rotating the winding form with its attached mounting plate in the opposite direction while holding the bearing collar fixed.
