Abstract
A method for transferring a package of yarn supported by a transfer core to a replacement core including the steps of inserting the replacement core into the transfer core, removing the transfer core relative to the package of yarn and the replacement core, holding the package of yarn during withdrawal of the transfer core, and permitting the yarn and replacement core to interengage in completing the transfer of the yarn onto the replacement core. There is also provision for the steps of compressing the resilient core to reduce its size, compressing the package of yarn, and anchoring the replacement core against axial displacement.
Claims10
A method for transferring a package of yarn supported by a rigid imperforate transfer core to a foraminous, resilient dye core of predetermined diameter comprising, in sequence, the steps of:
- a. compressing the resilient core to reduce its size;
- b. inserting the resilient core into the transfer core;
- c. anchoring the resilient core against axial displacement;
- and
- d. axially removing the transfer core relative to both the package of yarn and the resilient core.
A method for transferring a package of yarn supported by a transfer core to a replacement core comprising, in sequence, the steps of:
- a. inserting the replacement core into the transfer core;
- b. anchoring the replacement core against axial displacement;
- c. compressing the package of yarn;
- d. gripping and thereafter pulling the transfer core axially in removing it from between the yarn package and the replacement core;
- and
- e. holding the package of yarn stationary during the withdrawal of the transfer core.
