Abstract
An apparatus for continuously winding up a thread is described and includes two winding spindles that are held in a projecting manner on a rotary table and are associated with spindle drives to allow the thread to be alternately wound to form a bobbin. The rotary table can be activated in order to exchange the winding spindles between a winding region and a changing region. A moveable changing device transfers the thread between the winding spindles and during the exchange of the winding spindles, guides the thread between the winding spindles for transferring to a catching device on one of the winding spindles. The changing device has at least one deflecting thread guide and a movable feeding thread guide, which can be positioned in a deflecting position, the thread being guided at a distance from the winding spindle which receives the thread.
