Abstract
An apparatus for depositing cross wound yarn spools into an open top transport container utilizing a vertically extending dropping channel. The channel is raised and lowered into the transport container for guiding and directing the spools of yarn into the container. The container with the dropping channel provided therein is selectively moved for depositing the spools in a plurality of longitudinal rows.
Claims20
An apparatus for depositing cross wound yarn spools into an open top transport container comprising:
- an open top vertical dropping channel extending into said transport container;
- said dropping channel including front and rear walls joined by side walls, said front and rear walls being spaced apart a distance slightly greater than the length of said yarn spool for receiving and guiding said spool therebetween into said transport container;
- means shifting said dropping channel and transport container horizontally in a first direction a distance corresponding to the length of a spool facilitating the deposit of more than one vertical row of said spools in said container;
- means conveying said spools in said first direction to said open top of said dropping channel for depositing same in said container;
- means selectively raising said channel out of said transport container after a vertical row of said yarn spools stacked upon one another has been deposited;
- and
- means for selectively lowering said channel into said transport container after shifting of said container positioning said channel next adjacent said vertical row previously formed whereby successive vertical rows are formed along the length of said container in said first direction.
An apparatus for depositing cross wound yarn spools into an open top transport container comprising:
- an open top vertical dropping channel extending into said transport container said channel having front and rear walls, said front and rear walls being spaced apart a distance slightly greater than the length of the sleeve of said yarn spool for receiving and guiding said spool therebetween into said transport container;
- means conveying said spools to said open top of said channel for deposit in said container;
- said channel depositing said spools forming a vertical row of spools stacked vertically upon one another;
- said channel having a lowered position in which said spools are deposited therein and a raised position in which said channel is raised above said spools;
- means raising and lowering said channel;
- and
- means shifting said channel horizontally in a first direction when in said lowered position urging said channel against a previously formed vertical row compacting said spools in said container and shifting said container to accommodate the deposit of another row of said spools;
- whereby successive vertical rows of said spools are formed in said container.
