  • Apparatus for laying balls of stranded material into cups of a conveyor
    Patent number: 4176802
    Abstract: At each winding station of a winding machine a ball of stranded material, for example yarn, is lifted from a winding mandrel to a position above a conveyor which has cups for receiving the balls. Pointed ends of curved take-off members engage horizontally into each ball from each side, and when the ball is released it pivots downwardly into a conveyor cup about those pointed ends thereby ensuring alignment of the balls on the conveyor.
