Abstract: At least one thread tension sensor for each thread is provided on a winding machine. The actual value of thread tension is measured for each thread. The actual value is compared with a specified value in a comparator device and, in the event of a deviation being determined between the actual value and the specified value, a drive motor is actuated to adjust the thread brake of the thread concerned. This arrangement allows for the maintaining of a constant thread tension by a control circuit. The thread tension sensor can be used not only to control the thread tension, but also to monitor the specified thread tension range, and as a thread break monitor.

Abstract: For inserting a dividing cord loop into the opened shed warp on a sectional warping machine, a dividing device has at its disposal an introduction element (28) with a first, preferably movable guide arm (26) and a second, preferably stationary guide arm (27). The free ends (29, 31) of the two guide arms may preferably be led together in a pincer-like movement. The guide arms are preferably designed as tubes which in the led-together condition form a flow channel. With the help of an air conveyor (35), from a bobbin chamber (28) a dividing cord may be drawn off and as a loop be layed around a divided shed warp lying between the two guide arms and by way of a knotting means be connected to a cord loop. The connected cord loop is thereafter by way of a suction device or a blower device positioned and tensioned in a manner such that the cord loop bears at least on one side on the divided shed warp or on the warp web.

Abstract: Arranged in the area between the winding heads (25), located closest to the winding machine (3) on one creel side, and the winding machine, is at least one thread tension sensor (9) for each thread group with the same running length (L1, L2), at which the ACTUAL value of the thread tension of a thread can be permanently measured. The ACTUAL value can be compared in a comparator device (30, 30′) with a SPECIFIED value. In the event of a deviation being determined between the ACTUAL value and the SPECIFIED value, a drive motor (20, 21) can be actuated, by means of which the thread brakes (18) of a thread group can be adjusted. The arrangement allows for the maintaining of a constant thread tension in a control circuit.
