(54) Friction-based supply set for textile thread


(57) In a supply set for drawing textile threads by means of friction, whereby said set is composed of two like formally meshing gearwheels, said n teeth, which are shaped with a profile that ensures that the pairs of meshing teeth form a V-shaped groove that is open toward the circumferences of said wheels, have projections such that the groove is able to hold within itself, tangentially to said projections, a textile thread, drawing it by friction under the action of the rotation of the wheels, characterized in that on said teeth (3) of each wheel are mounted or made projections (3c, 3d) that extend axially at different predetermined heights (h1, h2) and are able to mate with an equal number of recesses (4) made in the opposing wheel; said recesses have depths (p1, p2) of 0 ≧ and are complementary to said heights, such that, by completing a relative rotation between wheels (1, 1'), one or more axial distances are obtained between the different wheels.
