Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3118360A1] Upstream-side and downstream-side V-groove guide rollers (24, 25) having substantially V-shaped grooves (241, 251) are rotatably supported in a feeding path in which yarns are formed into a folded yarn by a yarn combining device and is supplied to a yarn carrier. Shafts (242, 252) of the V-groove guide rollers (24, 25) are inclined relative to a direction perpendicular to the feeding path so that the folded yarn is twisted while being rolled from one inclined surfaces (243A, 253A) of the inclined surfaces (243A, 243B, 253A, 253B) of the grooves (241, 251) to valleys. Further, lines (X, Y) tracing the valleys of the grooves (241, 251) of the V-groove guide rollers (24, 25) in a circumferential direction forms one cycle of a sine curve for one turn of the V-groove guide rollers (24, 25) in an expanded state.
