Thread delivery device and thread brake

摘要

A yarn feeding device having a storage body defining a frontal withdrawal rim which forms a yarn braking zone of a yarn brake in co-operation with a circumferentially continuous braking band in the shape of a frustocone jacket and made of a material which is elastically deformable perpendicular to the generatrix of the frustocone. The yarn brake includes a stationary support for the braking band carrier which presses the braking band substantially axially and resiliently against the withdrawal rim. The braking band is held in a floating manner in relation to the withdrawal rim and in relation to the braking band carrier.
