 The present disclosure is a yarn winding machine that winds a yarn around a cone-shaped bobbin to form a cone-shaped package, and includes a cradle that rotatably supports the bobbin by a bobbin holding portion that holds the bobbin, and a cradle that is attached to the cradle. A bobbin or a package by moving a drive unit that rotates the bobbin by rotating the bobbin holding unit having a rotation shaft that is integrally rotatably connected to the bobbin holding unit and a yarn guide unit on which the yarn is hooked. A traverse device that traverses the wound yarn, a package peripheral speed acquisition unit that acquires the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin or the package at a predetermined position in the rotation axis direction of the bobbin as the first peripheral speed, and the bobbin or the package. Of the touch roller that contacts the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller and is driven to rotate by the rotation of the bobbin or the package, a roller peripheral speed calculating unit that calculates the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller as a second peripheral speed, and a package peripheral speed obtaining unit. And a contact state determination unit that determines the contact state of the bobbin or the package that contacts the touch roller by comparing the first peripheral speed acquired in step 1 with the second peripheral speed calculated by the roller peripheral speed calculation unit. , Is provided.
[0007]
 Here, when the rotating bobbin or package is in contact with the touch roller, when the outer peripheral surface of the large diameter side end of the bobbin or package is in contact with the touch roller, and when the bobbin or package has a small diameter side end The peripheral speed of the touch roller is different from that when the outer peripheral surface is in contact with the touch roller. As described above, even if the rotation speed of the bobbin or the package is constant, the peripheral speed of the touch roller changes according to the contact portion of the bobbin or the package that contacts the touch roller. Therefore, the contact state determination unit compares the first peripheral speed, which is the peripheral speed at a predetermined position on the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin or the package, with the second peripheral speed, which is the peripheral speed of the touch roller. It is possible to determine which part of the bobbin or the package is in contact with the touch roller. That is, the contact state determination unit can determine the contact state of the bobbin or the package. In this way, the yarn winding machine can determine the contact state of the bobbin or package that contacts the touch roller.
[0008]
 The package peripheral speed acquisition unit derives a first peripheral speed, which is the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin or the package at a predetermined position, by calculation based on the peripheral speed calculation information for calculating the peripheral speed. Good. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit can acquire the first peripheral speed that is the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin or the package at a predetermined position by calculation.
[0009]
 The peripheral speed calculation information may include at least one of the shape of the bobbin, the rotation speed of the bobbin, and the yarn speed of the wound yarn. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit can accurately calculate the first peripheral speed using these values.
[0010]
 The yarn winding machine is a bobbin information input unit for inputting bobbin information that specifies the shape of the bobbin, and peripheral speed information in which the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin at a predetermined position and the bobbin shape are associated with each other. The package peripheral speed acquisition unit further includes a peripheral speed information storage unit that stores the shape of the bobbin, and the package peripheral speed acquisition unit determines the bobbin shape specified by the bobbin information input from the peripheral speed information storage unit. The corresponding peripheral speed may be acquired as the first peripheral speed. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit can acquire the peripheral speed from the peripheral speed information storage unit without performing calculation.

Then, the operator can take measures such as adjusting the contact state of the bobbin or the package or stopping the winding of the yarn.
[0012]
 The yarn winding machine further includes a contact state input unit for inputting the contact state of the notification target, and the notification determining unit determines the notification state input by the contact state input unit as the predetermined contact state of the notification target. The contact state of the object is used. In this case, the operator of the yarn winding machine can set the contact state of the notification target using the contact state input unit. The operator of the yarn winding machine can switch the contact state of the notification target according to the type of the yarn to be wound and the like.
[0013]
 糸巻取機は、ボビン又はパッケージによって巻き取られる糸の糸速を検出する糸速検出部を更に備え、当接状態判定部は、更に、糸速検出部で検出された糸速とローラ周速算出部で算出された第2周速との差の時間的変化に基づいて、当接状態を判定してもよい。ここで、例えば、ボビンの大径側端部がタッチローラに当接している場合、糸が巻き取られるに従ってボビンとタッチローラとの間の糸の層(糸の量)が増加する。ボビン及びパッケージがコーン型であり、大径側と小径側とでは周速が異なるため、パッケージの外周面とタッチローラの外周面とは一点(当接点)で接する。そして、糸の層の増加に伴って、パッケージの外周面とタッチローラとの当接点は、パッケージ外周面の中央位置(回転軸方向の中央位置)に向けて移動する。この当接点の移動の速さは、ボビンとタッチローラとの隙間が糸によって埋められる速さによって変化する。すなわち、例えば、ボビンの大径側端部がタッチローラに当接した状態とする。この状態で、ボビンとタッチローラとの隙間が広い場合(ボビンの小径側端部とタッチローラ外周面との間が広い場合)は、ボビンとタッチローラとの隙間が狭い場合(ボビンの小径側端部とタッチローラ外周面との間が狭い場合)と比べて、当接点の移動が遅い。また、糸はパッケージの大径側端部と小径側端部との間でトラバースされながら巻き取られているため、パッケージ外周面の中央位置における周速とは、糸速(糸の平均の走行速度)となる。このため、当接点がパッケージ外周面の中央位置付近まで移動した場合、タッチローラの周速は、パッケージ外周面の中央位置における周速とほぼ同じとなる。すなわち、タッチローラの周速が、糸速とほぼ同じとなる。このように、ボビンに糸が巻き取られるに従って、タッチローラの周速が糸速に収束する。また、タッチローラの周速が糸速に収束するときの速さは、ボビンとタッチローラとの隙間の大きさ、すなわち、タッチローラの回転軸に対するボビン(パッケージ)の回転軸の傾斜の状態によって変化する。従って、当接状態判定部は、糸速とタッチローラの周速である第2周速との差の時間的変化に基づいて、タッチローラに対するボビン(パッケージ)の傾斜の状態、すなわち、タッチローラに対するパッケージの当接状態を判定することができる。
[0014]
 The yarn winding machine may further include a contact state storage unit that stores the identification information for identifying the package and the contact state determined by the contact state determination unit for the package in association with each other. In this case, the operator of the yarn winding machine or the like can confirm the contact state when the yarn is wound around the package based on the information stored in the contact state storage unit even after the package is formed.

 As an example, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51, after the start of winding the yarn, based on the yarn speed detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15 and the rotation speed detected by the rotation speed sensor 24, the package 30. The diameter at the center position in the rotation axis direction is calculated. Then, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 may calculate the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface at the central position of the package 30, based on the calculated diameter of the package 30. As another example, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 sets the yarn speed of the yarn 20 detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15 after the start of winding the yarn to the outer periphery at the center position in the rotation axis direction of the package 30. It may be used as the peripheral speed of the surface. In this embodiment, the package 30 is a cone type, and the average yarn speed of the yarn 20 traversed by the traverse device 70 is detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15. Therefore, the yarn speed of the yarn 20 detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15 becomes the peripheral velocity of the outer peripheral surface of the package 30 at the center position in the rotation axis direction.
[0049]
 The package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 may acquire the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 at a predetermined position without performing the calculation using the peripheral speed calculation information. Here, the storage unit 56 stores, for each shape of the winding bobbin 22, peripheral speed information in which the shape of the winding bobbin 22 is associated with the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 at a predetermined position. You may remember. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 can acquire the peripheral speed corresponding to the shape of the bobbin specified by the bobbin information input to the setting unit 91 from the storage unit 56.
[0050]
 Hereinafter, the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 at the central position in the rotational axis direction and the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the package 30 at the central position in the rotational axis direction will be collectively referred to as the “package central diameter peripheral speed (first Peripheral speed)”.
[0051]
 The package drive control unit 57 controls the rotation speed of the package drive motor 41 so that the yarn speed of the yarn 20 wound by the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 becomes a predetermined yarn speed. For example, the package drive control unit 57 calculates the rotation speed of the package drive motor 41 for realizing a predetermined yarn speed based on the diameter of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 at the center position in the rotation axis direction. be able to. The package drive control unit 57 can calculate the diameter of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 at the central position in the rotation axis direction based on a known method.
[0052]
 As an example, at the start of winding the yarn 20, the package drive control unit 57 sets the winding bobbin 22 preset in the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 as the diameter at the center position of the winding bobbin 22 in the rotation axis direction. It may be calculated based on the information specifying the shape. As an example, the package drive control unit 57 controls the package 30 based on the yarn speed detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15 and the rotation speed detected by the rotation speed sensor 24 after the winding of the yarn 20 is started. The diameter may be calculated. When the diameter of the package 30 is calculated using the yarn speed detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15, the package drive control unit 57 adjusts the rotation speed of the package drive motor 41 based on the actual yarn speed of the yarn 20. Control (that is, feedback control) can be performed.
[0053]
 The roller peripheral speed calculator 52 calculates the peripheral speed (second peripheral speed) of the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29. As an example, the roller peripheral speed calculation unit 52 calculates the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the roller peripheral speed calculation unit 52 based on the diameter of the touch roller 29 and the rotation speed detected by the rotation speed sensor 31. can do. The diameter of the touch roller 29 is set in advance in the roller peripheral speed calculator 52. Hereinafter, the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 is referred to as “touch roller peripheral speed (second peripheral speed)”.
[0054]
 The contact state determination unit 53 determines that the touch roller 29 has a contact point by comparing the package center diameter peripheral speed acquired by the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 with the touch roller peripheral speed calculated by the roller peripheral speed calculation unit 52. The contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 that contacts is determined. Here, the contact state determination unit 53 determines that the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29 at the large diameter side end or the small diameter side end is in contact with the touch roller 29. It is determined whether or not the center position between the large diameter side end and the small diameter side end is in contact with the touch roller 29.
[0055]
 Here, when the rotating winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29, and when the outer peripheral surface of the large diameter side end of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29. The peripheral speed of the touch roller is different from when the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 or the small-diameter side end of the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29. As described above, even if the rotation speed of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is constant, the peripheral speed of the touch roller changes depending on the contact portion of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 contacting the touch roller 29. Therefore, the contact state determination unit 53 compares the package center diameter peripheral speed with the touch roller peripheral speed to determine which part of the winding bobbin 22 or the touch roller 29 is in contact with the touch roller, that is, The contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 can be determined.
[0056]
 Specifically, when the touch roller peripheral speed and the package center diameter peripheral speed satisfy the following expression (1) at the start of winding the yarn 20, the contact state determination unit 53 displays the result in FIG. As shown, it is determined that the large diameter side end 22a of the winding bobbin 22 is in contact with the touch roller 29. Similarly, when the touch roller peripheral speed and the package center diameter peripheral speed satisfy the following formula (1) after the winding of the yarn 20 is started, the contact state determination unit 53 determines the large diameter side end of the package 30. Is determined to be in contact with the touch roller 29.
 Touch roller peripheral speed/Package center diameter peripheral speed>1 (1)
[0057]
 When the contact roller peripheral speed and the package center diameter peripheral speed satisfy the following expression (2) at the start of winding the yarn 20, the contact state determination unit 53, as shown in FIG. It is determined that the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 at the central position in the rotation axis direction is in contact with the touch roller 29. Similarly, when the touch roller peripheral speed and the package center diameter peripheral speed satisfy the following expression (2) after the winding of the yarn 20 is started, the contact state determination unit 53 determines the center of the package 30 in the rotation axis direction. It is determined that the outer peripheral surface at the position is in contact with the touch roller 29.
 Touch roller peripheral speed/package center diameter peripheral speed=1 (2)
[0058]
 When the contact roller peripheral speed and the package center diameter peripheral speed satisfy the following expression (3) at the start of winding the yarn 20, the contact state determination unit 53, as shown in FIG. It is determined that the small diameter side end portion 22b of the winding bobbin 22 is in contact with the touch roller 29. Similarly, when the touch roller peripheral speed and the package center diameter peripheral speed satisfy the following expression (3) after the start of winding the yarn 20, the contact state determination unit 53 determines that the small diameter side end of the package 30 is It is determined that the touch roller 29 is in contact with the touch roller 29.
 Touch roller peripheral speed/Package center diameter peripheral speed <1... (3)
[0059]
 The contact state determination unit 53 is further based on the temporal change of the difference between the yarn speed of the yarn 20 detected by the photoelectric constant length device 15 and the touch roller peripheral speed calculated by the roller peripheral speed calculation unit 52. , Determine the contact state. Here, the contact state determination part 53 contacts whether the gap between the small diameter side end and the touch roller 29 is wide or narrow while the large diameter side end of the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29. Judge as the state. Similarly, the contact state determination unit 53 contacts whether the gap between the large diameter side end portion and the touch roller 29 is wide or narrow while the small diameter side end portion of the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29. Judge as the state.
[0060]
 Here, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, when the large-diameter side end portion 22a of the winding bobbin 22 is in contact with the touch roller 29, the winding bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 are wound as the yarn 20 is wound. The layer of yarn 20 (the amount of yarn) between and increases. Since the winding bobbin 22 and the package 30 are cone-shaped and the peripheral speeds on the large diameter side and the small diameter side are different, the outer peripheral surface of the package 30 and the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 are in contact with each other at one point (contact point). Then, as the number of layers of the yarn 20 increases, the contact point between the outer peripheral surface of the package 30 and the touch roller 29 moves toward the center position (center position in the rotation axis direction) of the outer peripheral surface of the package 30. The moving speed of the contact point changes depending on the speed at which the gap between the winding bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 is filled with the yarn.
[0061]
 That is, for example, the large diameter side end 22a of the winding bobbin 22 is in contact with the touch roller 29. In this state, when the gap between the take-up bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 is wide (when the space between the small diameter side end 22b of the take-up bobbin 22 and the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 is wide), the take-up bobbin 22 is The movement of the contact point is slower than when the gap with the touch roller 29 is narrow (when the gap between the small diameter side end 22b and the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 is narrow). Specifically, when the gap between the take-up bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 is wide as shown in FIG. 5A, the take-up bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 are separated from each other as shown in FIG. 4A. As compared with the case where the gap is narrow, the gap is slowly filled with the yarn 20, so that the contact point moves slowly.
[0062]
 Similarly, the small diameter side end portion 22b of the winding bobbin 22 is in contact with the touch roller 29. In this state, when the gap between the take-up bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 is wide (when the large-diameter side end 22a of the take-up bobbin 22 and the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 are wide), the take-up bobbin 22 The contact point moves more slowly than when the gap between the touch roller 29 and the touch roller 29 is narrow (when the distance between the large-diameter side end 22a and the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 is narrow). Specifically, when the gap between the winding bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 is wide as shown in FIG. 5B, the winding bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29 are separated from each other as shown in FIG. 4C. Since the gap 20 is filled with the yarn 20 at a slower speed than when the gap is narrow, the contact point moves slowly.
[0063]
 Further, since the yarn 20 is wound while being traversed between the large-diameter side end and the small-diameter side end of the package 30, the package center diameter peripheral speed is the yarn speed of the yarn 20 (average of the yarn 20). Traveling speed). Therefore, when the contact point moves to the vicinity of the center position on the outer peripheral surface of the package 30, the peripheral speed of the touch roller becomes substantially the same as the peripheral speed of the central diameter of the package. That is, the peripheral speed of the touch roller becomes substantially the same as the yarn speed of the yarn 20. The peripheral speed of the touch roller and the peripheral speed of the central diameter of the package are not exactly the same due to slippage between the package 30 and the touch roller 29.
[0064]
 Thus, as the yarn 20 is wound around the winding bobbin 22, the peripheral speed of the touch roller converges to the yarn speed of the yarn 20. Further, the speed at which the peripheral speed of the touch roller converges to the yarn speed of the yarn 20 is the size of the gap between the take-up bobbin 22 and the touch roller 29, that is, the take-up bobbin 22 ( It changes depending on the state of inclination of the rotation axis of the package 30).
[0065]
 Here, FIG. 6 shows a change in the peripheral speed of the touch roller when the yarn 20 is wound in the state shown in FIGS. 4(a), 4(c), 5(a) and 5(b). .. A curve L1 shown in FIG. 6 shows a change in peripheral speed when the yarn 20 is wound in the state shown in FIG. 5(a). A curve L2 shown in FIG. 6 shows a change in peripheral speed when the yarn 20 is wound in the state shown in FIG. A curve S1 shown in FIG. 6 shows a change in peripheral speed when the yarn 20 is wound in the state shown in FIG. 5(b). A curve S2 shown in FIG. 6 shows a change in peripheral speed when the yarn 20 is wound in the state shown in FIG. 4(c).
[0066]
 Thus, for example, even if the large-diameter side end of the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29, the curves L1 and L2 in FIG. 6 are changed depending on the inclination state of the winding bobbin 22 (package 30) with respect to the touch roller 29. As indicated by, the time required for the peripheral speed of the touch roller to converge to the yarn speed of the yarn differs. Similarly, even if the small-diameter side end of the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29, depending on the state of inclination of the winding bobbin 22 (package 30) with respect to the touch roller 29, as shown by curves S1 and S2 in FIG. In addition, the time required for the peripheral speed of the touch roller to converge to the yarn speed of the yarn differs.
[0067]
 Therefore, the contact state determination unit 53 determines whether the touch roller peripheral speed converges with respect to the yarn speed of the yarn 20 after a lapse of a predetermined time after the winding of the yarn 20 is started. The inclination state of the winding bobbin 22 (package 30) with respect to 29, that is, the contact state can be determined. The contact state determination unit 53 determines whether the package 30 has a large size based on whether the peripheral speed of the touch roller after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of winding the yarn 20 is faster or slower than the yarn speed of the yarn 20. It is also possible to determine which of the diameter side end and the small diameter side end is in contact with the touch roller 29. That is, the contact state determination unit 53 determines that the large diameter end of the package 30 is in contact when the peripheral speed of the touch roller is faster than the yarn speed of the yarn 20. When the peripheral speed of the touch roller is slower than the yarn speed of the yarn 20, the contact state determining unit 53 determines that the small diameter side end of the package 30 is in contact.
[0068]
 As described above, the contact state determination unit 53 compares the peripheral velocity of the touch roller with the peripheral velocity of the center of the package to determine the large-diameter side end, the small-diameter side end, and the center of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30. Which of the positions is in contact with the touch roller 29 is determined as the contact state. The contact state determination unit 53 can perform this determination both at the start of winding the yarn 20 and after the start of winding. Further, the contact state determination unit 53 contacts the tilted state of the winding bobbin 22 (package 30) with respect to the touch roller 29 based on the temporal change in the difference between the yarn speed of the yarn 20 and the peripheral speed of the touch roller. Judge as the state. The contact state determination unit 53 can make this determination after a lapse of a predetermined time from the start of winding the yarn 20.
[0069]
 The notification determination unit 54 determines whether or not the contact state determined by the contact state determination unit 53 is a predetermined notification target contact state. The notification determination unit 54 uses the contact state of the notification target set by the setting unit 91 as the predetermined contact state of the notification target. The contact state of the notification target means which one of the large diameter side end, the small diameter side end, and the central position of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29, and the winding state with respect to the touch roller 29. At least one of the inclined states of the bobbin 22 (package 30) is included.
[0070]
 In the present embodiment, as an example of the contact state of the notification target, the state in which the small diameter side end of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is in contact with the touch roller 29 and the central position of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 are: The state of being in contact with the touch roller 29 is set. Further, as an example of the contact state of the notification target, the large diameter side end of the package 30 contacts the touch roller 29, and the gap between the small diameter side end of the package 30 and the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 is a predetermined value or more. The tilted state of the package 30 is set.
[0071]
 When the notification determination unit 54 determines that the contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is the contact state of the notification target, the notification instruction unit 55 operates the speaker 93 to perform the notification. As described above, the notification instruction unit 55 and the speaker 93 function as a notification unit that gives a notification when the notification determination unit 54 determines that the contact state of the notification target.
[0072]
 The storage unit 56 stores the identification information for identifying the package 30 and the contact state determined by the contact state determination unit 53 for the package 30 in association with each other. The storage unit 56 can use, as the identification information of the package 30, identification information provided by a known method such as identification information provided by the unit control unit 50 for managing each package 30. As described above, the storage unit 56 stores the shape of the winding bobbin 22 in advance for each type of the winding bobbin 22. Further, as described above, the storage unit 56 stores the peripheral speed information in which the shape of the winding bobbin 22 and the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 at the predetermined position are associated with each other. May be stored for each shape.
[0073]
 The unit controller 50 controls the operation of the traverse drive motor 76 in addition to the above-described determination of the contact state and the like. Further, the unit controller 50 controls the catching operation of the lower thread catching member 25 and the upper thread catching member 26 (rotation of the lower thread pipe arm 33 and the upper thread pipe arm 36). The unit controller 50 controls opening/closing of shutters provided on the lower thread pipe arm 33 and the upper thread pipe arm 36, and controls stop and generation of suction flow from the lower thread suction port 32 and the upper thread suction port 35. ..
[0074]
 As described above, in the winder unit 10 of the present embodiment, the contact state determination unit 53 compares the package center diameter peripheral speed with the touch roller peripheral speed to determine which part of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 is the touch roller 29. The contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 can be determined. In this way, the winder unit 10 can determine the contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 that contacts the touch roller 29.
[0075]
 The package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 can derive the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 at a predetermined position based on the peripheral speed calculation information for calculating the peripheral speed. it can. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 can acquire the peripheral speed of the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 at a predetermined position by calculation.
[0076]
 The peripheral speed calculation information may include at least one of the shape of the winding bobbin 22, the rotation speed of the winding bobbin 22, and the yarn speed of the yarn 20 to be wound. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 can accurately calculate the peripheral speed using these values.
[0077]
 The package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 may acquire, from the storage unit 56, the peripheral speed corresponding to the shape of the bobbin specified by the bobbin information input to the setting unit 91. In this case, the package peripheral speed acquisition unit 51 can acquire the peripheral speed from the storage unit 56 without performing calculation.
[0078]
 When the notification determination unit 54 determines that the notification target is in the contact state, the notification instruction unit 55 outputs a sound from the speaker 93 to perform the notification. In this case, the operator of the winder unit 10 can grasp the contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30 based on the sound output from the speaker 93. Then, the operator can take measures such as adjusting the contact state of the winding bobbin 22 or the package 30, or stopping the winding of the yarn 20.
[0079]
 The winder unit 10 includes a setting unit 91 for inputting the contact state of the notification target. In this case, the operator of the winder unit 10 can set the contact state of the notification target using the setting unit 91. Further, the operator of the winder unit 10 can switch the contact state of the notification target according to the type of the yarn 20 to be wound and the like.
[0080]
 Depending on the state of inclination of the winding bobbin 22 with respect to the touch roller 29, the moving speed of the contact point that moves toward the center position of the outer peripheral surface of the package 30 changes. That is, the speed at which the peripheral speed of the touch roller converges to the yarn speed of the yarn 20 is different. Therefore, the contact state determination unit 53 determines the state of inclination of the winding bobbin 22 with respect to the touch roller 29, that is, the package 30 with respect to the touch roller 29, based on the temporal change in the difference between the yarn speed and the peripheral speed of the touch roller. The contact state can be determined.
[0081]

In this case, the operator or the like of the winder unit 10 can confirm the contact state when the yarn 20 is wound around the package 30 based on the information stored in the storage unit 56 even after the package 30 is formed.

The present disclosure may be modified without changing the scope of the claims. Moreover, you may combine the said embodiment and the said modified example suitably.
[0083]
 For example, the rotation axis of the winding bobbin 22 may deviate from the central axis defined by the outer peripheral surface of the winding bobbin 22 due to distortion of the winding bobbin 22 or the like. In this case, the outer peripheral surface of the take-up bobbin 22 comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the touch roller 29 intermittently, and the peripheral speed of the touch roller 29 does not increase. Therefore, the contact state determination unit 53 may determine that the winding bobbin 22 is distorted when the touch roller peripheral speed does not reach the predetermined value or more even after the predetermined time has elapsed.
[0084]

[0087]
 Note that the winder unit 10 does not have to make the notification based on the determination result of the contact state. The winder unit 10 may only determine the contact state, or may store the determined contact state and the identification information of the package 30 in association with each other. The contact state of the notification target used by the notification determination unit 54 in the determination need not be changeable by the setting unit 91. In this case, the notification determination unit 54 may use a preset contact state as the contact state of the notification target. The contact state determination unit 53 does not have to determine the contact state based on the temporal change in the difference between the yarn speed of the yarn 20 and the peripheral speed of the touch roller.
