Abstract (en)

The number of rows of stocker pegs 26 provided by a stocker 20 is one greater than the number of rows of cart pegs 13 provided by a traveling creel cart 10. In a state in which one row of the stocker pegs 26 is bobbin-less and empty bobbins 6 are hung on all remaining rows of the stocker pegs 26, a first process and a second process are alternately performed under the control of a transfer control computer 40 to exchange empty bobbins 6 in the stocker 20 with full bobbins 5 in the traveling creel cart 10. In the first process, full bobbins 5 hung on one row of cart pegs 13 are moved to one row of stocker pegs 26, which are bobbin-less. In the second process, empty bobbins 6 hung on one row of stocker pegs 26 are moved to one row of cart pegs 13 where the full bobbins 5 has been removed in the first process. The traveling creel cart 10 conveys full bobbins 5 to the stocker 20 and replaces them with empty bobbins 6 in the stocker 20, and then conveys the empty bobbins 6.
