Vibration-damping apparatus for a winding device of a textile machine which produces cross-wound packages

A vibration-damping apparatus (18) for a winding device (4) of a textile machine (1) that is configured to produce cross-wound packages (5), the vibration-damping apparatus (18) being configured for reducing vibrations that occur at a pivotably mounted package cradle (8) during a winding operation of the textile machine (1), the vibration-damping apparatus (18) comprising:

• a friction damper (20), configured to exert friction forces of different intensities, depending on a working direction, the friction damper (20) comprising:
• a braking rod (32), mounted for sliding relative to a damper housing (31) of the friction damper (20);
• a stationary first braking element (39);
• and
• a movably mounted second braking element (41), configured to be placed against the braking rod (32) via a movable support lever (38),
• wherein:
• friction forces that are effective as a cross-wound package (5) lifts off during a winding operation are greater than friction forces effective during a return movement of the cross-wound package (5), and
• one end of the movable support lever (38) is connected to the second braking element (41) such that limited movement is allowed, while another end is supported in a guide (35) of the damper housing (31) via a guiding and arresting device (36).
