Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0347535A1] The end of a yarn on a cop is grasped by means of an air flow which sweeps over the cop surface from the bottom upwards in a swirling and/or helical fashion, and is then drawn vertically upwards from the cop (4). During the flowing of the air, the cop (4) is caused to roll with a wobble on a guiding face (6') which surrounds the cop (4). The end of the yarn is seized above the cop core and/or transferred automatically to a stand-by position, thread-joining means, spooling device or a similar device. The stand-by position used can also be the core interior. The air can be blown tangentially and obliquely upwards into a tube (6) surrounding the cop (4) through air nozzles (7, 8, 9). For the purpose of limiting the blowing time, switchable valves (V1, V2) can be present. <IMAGE>
