A fiber bundle guide 1 includes a cylindrical guide roller 11, a support member 12 which rotatably supports the guide roller 11, and a movable mechanical section 13 arranged between the guide roller 11 and the support member 12, so that the guide roller 11 swings in response to widthwise changes in the traveling path of the fiber bundle Y. According to this fiber bundle guide, it is possible to prevent excessive shifting of the fiber bundle Y toward one of both sides of the circumferential edge of the guider roller 11, preventing shrinking or bending of the fiber bundle Y due to the contact of the fiber bundle Y to the flange 112 of the guide roller 11, which makes it possible to guide the fiber bundle Y without causing twisting of the bundle. |

1. A fiber bundle guide for guiding a flat fiber bundle in which a plurality of fibers are gathered, comprising:
a cylindrical guide roller having a circumferential surface around which the fiber bundle is to be placed; and a support member configured to support the guide roller rotatably in a circumferential direction, wherein at a rotatably supporting portion that rotatably supports the guide roller around the support member, an axis receiving member arranged at a center part of the guide roller, an axis body slidably engaged with an inner side of the axis receiving member, and a swinging shaft arranged at an inner side of the axis body so as to extend in a direction perpendicular to a rotational axis of the guide roller to pivotally support the support member are provided, and the guide roller rotates about the support member in response to a traveling of the fiber bundle, and swings about the swinging shaft in response to widthwise changes in a traveling path of the fiber bundle. |
