APPARATUS FOR STORING AND FEEDING YARN TO YARN USING MACHINES

摘要

Apparatus for storing yarn drawn off from a spool or cop and feeding such yarn with a controlled tension to a textile machine. The apparatus comprises a drum on which a rotating arm distributes yarn windings that are displaced from one to the other end of the drum by a device including groups of swinging blades alternatively projecting and upwardly moving through slits in the drum. These blades keep the yarn windings separated from one another during translation on the drum, each of the windings being arranged between two successive blades in each group.
