ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for feeding pairs of reels to a winding position in a winding apparatus for winding video tape on the reels and removing the loaded reels from the winding apparatus. A feeding conveyor feeds trays containing a pair of empty reels removably mounted in the trays to a transfer position and carries trays into which pairs of loaded reels have been placed away from the transfer position. A rotating arm carries holding members at the ends thereof for gripping a pair of reels in a tray at the transfer position and gripping another pair of reels on the winding apparatus at the winding position. Movement of the arm along the axis of rotation removes the reels from the tray and the reels from the winding position, and rotation of the arm switches the reels from the tray to the winding position and vice versa. Thereafter the arm is moved axially to load the empty reels onto the winding machine and the full reels onto the tray.
