Abstract (en)

A device (1) for changing reels (2) on a winding or unwinding unit (3), in particular of a printing press or a machine for transforming or processing strips of paper, plastic film, metal, etc., has a first and a second reel-carrier assembly (11, 12) having supports for supporting the reels (2) and defining respective reel support axes (A); and an actuating system (13) for alternatively moving the reel-carrier assemblies into a work position and a loading position along a predetermined path (14); the actuating system (13) is designed to translate the reel-carrier assemblies (11, 12) with respect to each other between the work position and the loading position in a translation direction (D) in one or more translation planes, and to part the reel-carrier assemblies (11, 12) in different directions, e.g. in a direction substantially perpendicular or crosswise to the translation direction (D), to prevent interference between the reel-carrier assemblies (11, 12) as they move in the translation direction (D).
