Abstract
A winding device and associated method for swiveling a bobbin in the winding device during an interruption of a winding operation are provided, wherein the bobbin rests on a backing roller and is formed on a bobbin tube onto which a thread is wound. The bobbin tube is rotatably held between holders on two retaining arms mounted on a common swivel arm having a swivel axis. With force measurement unit, one of intrinsic weight of the bobbin or a force effect that acts on the retaining arms due to contact of the bobbin with the backing roller is measured. A manual force is transmitted into at least one of the retaining arms in a force direction that is determined by evaluating the force measurement unit. With a drive that is operably configured with the swivel arm, the swivel arm is swiveled in the force direction.
