Apparatus for processing residual yarn |
(57) An apparatus for processing residual yarn having a gripper member (G) in a fixed
state, a bobbin gripping member (C) that grips a bobbin (b) and a movement means for
moving the bobbin gripping member between an upper position which positions the bottom
of the bobbin in the vicinity of the gripper member and a lower position which loads
the bobbin on a tray (t), and after gripping the bobbin by the bobbin gripping member
and lifting it up from the tray, strips the residual yarn on the bobbin by the gripper
member before loading it on the tray.
The apparatus for processing residual yarn can be simplified and made more compact
and no matter where yarn remains on the bobbin, residual yarn can be reliably removed.
