A DEVICE FOR FEEDING A PERIODICALLY OPERATING YARN-CONSUMING DEVICE

摘要

A device for feeding a periodically operating yarn-consuming device, such as a shuttleless weaving machine, of the type adapted to shape the yarn to be consumed into a supply coil and to periodically release - with the aid of a release means - from said coil a number of windings corresponding with a predetermined yarn length to be drawn off and supplied to the yarn consuming device. In accordance with the invention means are provided in the drive control (13) of the winding element (3) to keep the winding element (3), before coming to a complete standstill - rotating through a certain angle at a substantially lower speed so as to avoid loop forming in the path of the yarn (i) between the yarn package (1) and the winding element (3).
