Abstract: A device for printing, severing and applying self-adhesive labels, wherein the device operates with a label material without a carrier strip. The label material has a printable layer, a carrier layer and a heat-sealable adhesive layer. The device has an applicator, by way of which the label is applied to an object to be labelled. The applicator can be moved up to the object to be labelled by way of a handling device, and the handling device is constructed in accordance with the principle of an open kinematic chain and has at least one translational kinematic axis and/or at least one rotational kinematic axis. The applicator can be heated by way of a heating device which operates in accordance with an electrical operating principle.

Abstract: A textile machine includes a protective exterior cover, a slotted yarn access formed in the protective cover, and a safety guard shielding at least a portion of the slotted yarn access. The safety guard includes a guard body mounted to the protective cover proximate the slotted yarn access. The guard body has a fastener edge residing adjacent a first side of the slotted yarn access, and a free edge residing adjacent a second side of the slotted yarn access. The free edge of the guard body extends above and across the slotted yarn access and forms an unobstructed space on the second side of the slotted yarn access allowing yarn to pass around the free edge, underneath the safety guard and through the protective cover.

Abstract: An apparatus for winding a continuous flexible elongated element, preferably made of plastic material, around a spool including a drive means configured for rotating a spool around a winding axis. The spool is provided with a winding core extending along the winding axis. Delivery means are configured for delivering an elongated retaining element, preferably a retaining film, at the spool. Winding means are configured for at least partially winding the elongated retaining element around the winding core so as to retain a free end of the continuous flexible elongated element on the winding core.

Abstract: An arrangement of an elongated element wound on a spool is presented. The elongated element has a leading end having a bent part and an unbent part. The bent part further having a beginning part and a trailing end. The leading end is positioned on the core of the spool and the bent part deviates at least for a part from a winding direction. The elongated element further forms subsequent windings in the winding direction on the core. At least one of the subsequent windings is wound over the beginning part of the bent part while an adhesive is provided to fix the trailing end of the bent part on the core simultaneously thereby securing elongated element on the spool.

Abstract: A machine for winding a wire coming from a rolling mill into a coil, includes first means for locking a tail end of the wire and second means for containing, lifting and moving a formed coil to a binding station. The first means for locking the tail end of the wire and the second means for containing, lifting and moving the formed coil are built into a single operating unit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a bobbin fixing device capable of fixing a bobbin easily with a simple structure and also provides a bobbin removing device capable of removing a bobbin readily with a simple structure. Stoppers 35 project from the level of the outer surface of a rotating shaft 23. Sloping surface of each stopper 35 is pressed by a bobbin 10, so that the stopper is moved to an inner position P2. The bobbin 10 is attached so as to position on a positioning member 25. When the bobbin 10 is brought into contact with the positioning member 25, each support 34B upwardly moves together with a release button 32 biased by a spring 33, so that one end of each arm 34A on the associated support 34B moves upward and the other end thereof close to the associated stopper 35 moves downward. Thus, each stopper 35 outwardly moves and projects until a restricting face 35C of the stopper 35 is brought into contact with the bobbin 10.

Abstract: Service trolley for open-end spinning machines having on-board members dedicated to the intervention cycles comprising a device for determining the position of the thread with respect to such members of the trolley that comprises a worm screw, with a horizontal axis parallel to the spinning machine, which engages the thread with its threading, said device being able to be lifted and actuated in commanded clockwise/anti-clockwise rotation to determine both the level of the thread and its axial coordinate.

Abstract: Tailstock device to be applied to the cone-holding arm (26) of collection units (3) of spinning stations (1) of open-end spinning machines wherein the quill is engaged by a toothed tailstock provided with a skew pyramidal toothing on the face presented to the base of the quill.

Abstract: A service unit for the automatic servicing of work stations of a textile machine for manufacturing cheeses, in particular for an open-end rotor spinning machine. The service unit comprises a pneumatic auxiliary yarn supply and removal device with a pivotably supported yarn supply tube and a yarn cutting device.

Abstract: A machine for tucking, labelling and palletizing spools at the outlet of winders or other machines producing spools of threads and the process practiced by this machine. The machine includes a station for positioning spools at the outlet of a winder or other machine producing spools and cutting the tag end of the thread, a robot or the like for grasping the spool, for supplying a turning plate and for unmounting the spools from the turning plate and palletizing them, a device for grasping, positioning, holding and cutting the length of the tag end of thread, a portion for needle tucking, or the like, and a labelling station, all of these stations an devices being computer controlled.

Abstract: A cheese-producing textile machine (1), having a central control unit (37), a plurality of work stations (2), and a service unit (23), which automatically supplies the work stations (2). The work stations (2) each have a winding device with a winding drum (17), which is individually driven by a motor, and a work station computer (39). The central control unit (37) is connected via a machine bus (40) with the work station computers (39) and with a control device (39) of the service unit (23). Specific winding drum data (x, y), in particular the number of traverses (g) of the winding drum (17) of the work stations (2), are stored in a memory, e.g., integrated in the central control unit (37). During the yarn pickup by means of the yarn lifter (41) of the service unit (23) in the course of a cheese change, the individual electric motor drive (50) of the winding drum (17) is controlled to match the number of revolutions of the winding drum (17) to the number of traverses (g) thereof.
