<p>A yarn brake which may be utilized on a textile yarn processing machine, such as a two-for-one twister, for applying tension to a moving yarn and wherein a movable braking body is held in applied position against a braking surface and is separated therefrom during threading of the yarn through the yarn brake. An intercepting means is provided for receiving and holding the braking body, upon separation thereof from the braking surface during threading, in a position in which the braking body and braking surface remain substantially aligned for easily returning to braking engagement after the yarn threading.</p> |
