(54) | Yarn winding machine |
(57) An automatic winder includes a bobbin set section, a cradle (23), a contact roller
(29), a traverse guide (28), and a yarn leading plate (75, 76). The bobbin set section
supplies a yarn of a yarn supplying bobbin. The cradle (23) rotatably holds a package
(30), around which the yarn (20) supplied from the bobbin set section is wound. The
contact roller (29) makes contact with and rotates the package (30). The traverse
guide (28) is provided independently from the contact roller (29). The traverse guide
(28) is engaged with the yarn (20) to be wound into the package (30) to traverse the
yarn (20). The yarn leading plate (75, 76) makes contact with the yarn (20) applied
with tension to lead the yarn (20) towards a center in a winding width direction of
the package (30) before the traverse guide (28) engages with the yarn (20).
