Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an adjustment device, a winding device, and a method for setting the guide wire assembly of the winding device. Background Technology

[0002] A winding apparatus for automatically generating and winding synthetic yarn is known from WO 2022 033 919 A1. This winding apparatus comprises a guide disc support for receiving at least two guide discs with driven guide disc sleeves, a frame for receiving a plurality of winding stations distributed along a driveable winding spindle, and a yarn feeding unit. For each winding station, the yarn feeding unit has a displaceable guide, particularly a top-mounted guide, which reciprocates between a generating position or a standby position and a working position in each case to distribute the yarn to the winding station. To enable yarn generation on the guide discs without operator intervention, the yarn feeding unit has a displaceable generating roller in the guide disc area, which moves between the generating or standby position and the working position to generate the yarn on the circumference of the guide disc. When the generating roller moves from the generating or standby position to the working position, the yarn can be inserted into the processing channel of the winding unit.

[0003] However, problems may arise when the displaceable yarn guide moves from its starting or standby position to its working position. Specifically, during this process, the yarn may not be received by the associated yarn guide, or the yarn guide may move past the yarn to be received. A similar series of problems may also occur during the displacement of the starting roller, specifically, the yarn may not be inserted into the processing channels provided by the winding unit.

[0004] DE 10 2011 121 224 A1 describes a method and apparatus for setting up spatially adjustable processing equipment in a melt spinning machine or textile machine. This type of machine has a large number of processing devices distributed across multiple processing stations. To enable the processing devices at a processing station to be set to predetermined positions within that station at the start of the process, a preset position of the processing device in a first processing station is first detected by a scanning device guided in a coordinate wall. Subsequently, the coordinate wall with the scanning device is provided to adjacent processing stations to facilitate the repositioning of the processing devices. In this way, the same machine setup for spatially adjustable processing devices can be performed across a large number of processing stations.

[0005] However, the setup of the processing equipment in the first processing station is not described here. Furthermore, automatic thread generation on the processing equipment is not possible. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This invention aims to provide an adjustment device, a winding device, and a method for setting the guide wire assembly of the winding device, which reduces or eliminates the problems of the prior art. Its particular objective is to improve the automatic yarn start-up on the guide wire assembly and enable it to operate with a lower probability of failure.

[0007] This objective is achieved through an adjustment device.

[0008] More specifically, this objective is achieved by an adjustment device for setting the guide assembly of a winding device for automatic yarn generation and winding of synthetic yarn, wherein the adjustment device has a plurality of steering rollers for adjusting predetermined positions that can be assembled on the winding device, and a calibration thread for simulating the synthetic yarn path, wherein the simulated yarn path can be formed on the plurality of steering rollers and the guide assembly of the winding device by means of the plurality of steering rollers and the calibration thread, so as to set at least one guide assembly in the simulated yarn path.

[0009] In this configuration, the guide wire assembly can be positioned relative to the simulated wire path, for example, at a predetermined spacing and / or angle relative to the calibration wire. Due to the guide rollers, a high degree of consistency between the simulated wire path and the actual wire path of the synthetic wire during subsequent automatic yarn generation and / or winding can be achieved. Therefore, the position and / or alignment of the guide wire assembly is adjustable, which is optimal for the yarn generation and / or winding of the synthetic wire. In this way, after adjusting the guide wire assembly via the adjustment device, the automatic yarn generation on the guide wire assembly is improved and can be performed with a lower probability of failure. Specifically, a closed simulated wire path can be formed by the guide rollers, which can be generated by connecting the two ends of the calibration wire. This closed simulated wire path is advantageous because, in this case, no further auxiliary devices such as suction guns are required, and the calibration wire can be held in place or within the simulated wire path.

[0010] According to one embodiment of the adjustment device, at least one guide wire assembly has a guide wire disk, wherein the calibration wire can be moved along a simulated wire path via the guide wire disk.

[0011] By moving the calibrated yarn along the simulated yarn path, the consistency between the simulated yarn path and the actual yarn path synthesized during subsequent automatic yarn generation and / or winding can be improved. The position of the yarn in the longitudinal direction of the guide spool is determined specifically by the rotation of the guide spool itself and the resulting frictional conditions between the yarn and the guide spool. This further reduces the probability of failure during automatic yarn generation on the guide assembly after the guide assembly has been set by the adjustment device.

[0012] According to one embodiment of the adjustment device, at least one guide assembly has a top guide. The top guide can be moved from a standby position to a working position in the guide rail during the startup of the winding device for automatically generating yarn. The guide rail defines a yarn-generating motion path for moving the top guide from the standby position to the working position. At least one guide assembly can be configured such that the yarn-generating motion path intersects with the simulated yarn path.

[0013] This pre-adjustment avoids the need to manually change the yarn path during yarn generation on the associated top guide. In other words, automatic yarn generation on the top guide can only be achieved by setting the components that define the yarn path with sufficient precision, which can be easily and quickly accomplished thanks to the described adjustment device.

[0014] The object of the present invention is also achieved by a winding device.

[0015] More specifically, this objective is subsequently achieved by a winding device for automatically generating and winding synthetic yarn, the winding device having the aforementioned adjustment device, wherein the winding device has at least one guide assembly whose position relative to the calibration yarn of the adjustment device is settable.

[0016] The aforementioned advantages of the adjusting device also apply in a similar manner to the winding device having the adjusting device. The adjusting device is preferably arranged or assembled on the winding device for setting the guide assembly. After setting the guide assembly, the adjusting device is preferably removed again. In particular, at least one guide assembly can be connected to the frame of the winding device in multiple different positions and / or aligned, for example, by means of fastening devices such as screws. To set the position of a respective guide assembly, the assembly is then first able to be displaced and / or rotated relative to the frame, and can be fixed relative to the frame in the desired position, for example using the fastening device. Furthermore, sockets and / or markings are preferably arranged on the frame, by which predetermined positions of the guide rollers are defined.

[0017] According to one embodiment of the winding apparatus, at least one guide assembly has a guide with a sliding edge and / or a wire-collecting area. The position and / or alignment of the sliding edge and / or the wire-collecting area can be set relative to a wire path simulated by calibrating the wire.

[0018] In this way, the probability of failure during automatic yarn generation on the yarn guide assembly is further reduced after the yarn guide assembly is set by the adjustment device. The yarn gathering area is preferably designed to gather multiple synthetic yarns to form a common yarn path at a specific location. A sliding edge allows one or more yarns to be moved along the sliding edge in a defined manner, especially during automatic yarn generation. The yarn guide is specifically designed as an auxiliary yarn guide, which only contacts the yarn, at least temporarily, during automatic yarn generation, but not during winding.

[0019] According to one embodiment of the winding apparatus, at least one guide assembly has a thread processing unit for oiling and / or winding the synthetic yarn through at least one thread processing channel. The thread processing channel can be set relative to a yarn path simulated by calibrating the yarn. In this case, for the automatic generation of the synthetic yarn, it is ensured that the corresponding yarn is inserted into the associated thread processing channel.

[0020] This further ensures that the corresponding yarn passes through the yarn handling channel as expected during the operation of the winding device. In particular, it is possible to set specific entry and exit angles for the calibrated yarn as it enters or exits the yarn handling channel, and these angles are subsequently established during the operation of the winding device using the synthetic yarn.

[0021] According to one embodiment of the winding apparatus, multiple synthetic yarns can be guided in a parallel and spaced-apart manner by means of a yarn guide assembly. By setting the yarn guide assembly using an adjustment device, the automatic start-up of each yarn on the yarn guide assembly is subsequently improved and can be performed with a low probability of failure. The yarn guide assembly can be set with sufficiently high accuracy using only one simulated yarn path. The yarn guide assembly can also be set with particularly high accuracy using two or more simulated yarn paths, such as simulated yarn paths corresponding to all synthetic yarn paths. Two or more simulated yarn paths can be formed simultaneously and / or sequentially.

[0022] The object of the present invention is also achieved by a method for setting the guidewire assembly.

[0023] More specifically, this objective is achieved in this case by a method of setting the guide assembly of the aforementioned winding device using the aforementioned adjustment device, wherein a calibration thread for simulating the synthetic yarn path is guided on a plurality of steering rollers of the guide assembly and the adjustment device to form a closed yarn path, wherein at least one guide assembly is set using the simulated yarn path.

[0024] The aforementioned advantages of the adjusting and winding devices also apply to this method in a similar manner. After the guide rollers have been positioned on the winding device, the calibration wire begins to grow on the guide rollers and a selected guide assembly of the winding device. The two ends of the calibration wire are connected to each other, specifically knotted, to form a closed wire path. The connection points are implemented with such a small type that their effect on the simulated wire path is negligible, and in particular, to ensure that the calibration wire does not get stuck anywhere.

[0025] According to one embodiment of the method, during the setup of the guide wire assembly in the simulated wire path, the calibration wire is moved along the closed wire path by at least one guide wire disc.

[0026] By moving the calibration wire along the simulated wire path, the consistency between the simulated wire path and the actual wire path of the synthesized wire during subsequent automatic threading and / or winding can be improved. This further reduces the probability of failure during automatic threading on the wire guide assembly after the guide assembly has been set by the adjustment device. The wire guide disc preferably rotates at a lower speed than during subsequent automatic threading and / or winding, but at a speed that ensures sufficiently high consistency between the simulated wire path and the subsequent actual wire path during threading and / or winding. Specifically, during the rotation of the wire guide disc, the distance between the calibration wire and the end face of the wire guide disc is the same as the distance between the associated synthesized wire and the end face during its threading and / or winding.

[0027] According to one embodiment of the method, at least one guidewire assembly is first set with a static calibration wire, and then set with a calibration wire that moves along a closed wire path.

[0028] Specific settings are better executed when the calibration wire is moving. Other specific settings are better executed when the calibration wire is stationary, i.e., when the calibration wire is not moving. In particular, settings independent of the calibration wire's position relative to the guide wire disk (e.g., independent of the distance between the calibration wire and the guide wire disk end face) are executed with a static calibration wire. Settings dependent on the calibration wire's position relative to the guide wire disk (e.g., dependent on the distance between the calibration wire and the guide wire disk end face) are executed when the calibration wire is moving.

[0029] Pre-oriented or fully oriented synthetic yarns for textile or technical applications are particularly capable of being wound using the winding device. Orientation here is also performed, at least in part, using the winding device. Attached Figure Description

[0065] according to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4a and Figure 4b Used to set according to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4a and Figure 4b The adjusting device 1 of the guide assembly 2 of the winding device 3 for automatic yarn generation and winding of synthetic yarn has multiple guide rollers 4, which are adjusted to predetermined positions that can be assembled on the winding device 3. The adjusting device 1 also has a calibration thread 5 for simulating the synthetic yarn path. Through the multiple guide rollers 4 and the calibration thread 5, a simulated yarn path can be formed on the multiple guide rollers 4 and the guide assembly 2 of the winding device 3, so that at least one guide assembly 2 is positioned within the simulated yarn path.

[0066] according to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The diagram shows that the adjusting device 1 has four guide rollers 4. However, it is conceivable to provide fewer or more than four guide rollers, for example, two to six guide rollers. The number and predetermined position of the guide rollers 4 are selected such that the simulated yarn path, particularly in the area of ​​the guide assembly 2 of the winding device 3, corresponds to the yarn path of the synthesized yarn during automatic yarn generation and / or winding. Furthermore, the number and predetermined position of the guide rollers 4 are selected such that the calibration yarn 5 does not interfere with the setting process. Additionally, the number and predetermined position of the guide rollers 4 are selected such that a closed yarn path of the calibration yarn 5 can be generated. In other words, a circulating yarn path of the calibration yarn 5 can be formed using the guide rollers 4 and the guide assembly 2. The calibration yarn 5 has no ends, which is achieved specifically by knotting two previously existing ends.

[0067] At least one guide wire assembly 2 has a guide wire disk 6. The calibration wire 5 is movable along a simulated wire path via the guide wire disk 6. Two guide wire disks 6 are shown, specifically a first guide wire disk 6.1 and a second guide wire disk 6.2. In this case, the calibration wire 5 is particularly capable of moving along a simulated wire path via the first guide wire disk 6.1 and the second guide wire disk 6.2. For this purpose, the guide wire disks 6, 6.1, 6.2 can be rotated about their axes, for example, by an electric motor.

[0068] At least one guide wire assembly 2 has a top guide wire 7, wherein the top guide wire 7 for automatically forming synthetic yarn can move from a standby position WS to a working position BS in the guide wire guide rail 8 during the start-up of the winding device 3. The guide wire guide rail 8 defines a yarn-forming motion path for moving the top guide wire 7 from the standby position WS to the working position BS. At least one guide wire assembly 2 can be configured such that the yarn-forming motion path intersects with the simulated yarn path. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The diagram shows the top wire guide 7 positioned in its standby position WS, indicated by a solid line. The working position BS is... Figure 1 The middle is symbolized by a dotted line.

[0069] During operation of the winding device 3, the top guide 7, located in its working position BS, forms a so-called traverse triangle. During operation of the winding device 3, the synthetic yarn is traversed by the traverse guide between the top guide 7 in its working position BS and the winding spindle of the winding device 3, specifically through reciprocating motion, to form a package. By moving the top guide 7 from its standby position WS to its working position BS during the startup of the winding device 3, the synthetic yarn can be started on and held by the top guide 7. First, the top guide 7 can be guided without contacting the yarn; subsequently, contact between the yarn and the top guide 7 can be generated in an area provided for this purpose, in which the yarn is guided with contact until reaching the working position BS and during operation of the winding device 3. By setting at least one guide assembly 2 on the simulated yarn path, contact between the yarn and the associated top guide 7 during startup of the winding device 3 is ensured to occur in the area provided for this purpose.

[0070] Five top guides 7.1 to 7.5 are symbolically shown here as an example, thus enabling the winding device 3 to wind five synthetic filaments in parallel to form a package. However, it is also conceivable that the winding device 3 can wind more than five synthetic filaments in parallel, such as 6 to 24, preferably 8 to 20, and particularly 12, 14, 16, or 18, to form a package. The winding device 3 has a separate top guide 7 for each filament to be wound.

[0071] The position of at least one wire guide assembly 2 of the winding device 3 can be set relative to the calibration wire 5 of the adjusting device 1. For this purpose, the assembly 2 can be connected to the frame 9 of the winding device 3 in multiple different positions and / or alignments, for example, by fastening with a fastening device such as screws. The wire guide assembly 2 can be positioned by connecting to the frame 9 in a specific position and / or a specific alignment among multiple possible different positions and / or alignments. To set its position, at least one wire guide assembly 2 can first be displaced relative to the frame 9, particularly as indicated by a straight double arrow. To set its position, at least one wire guide assembly 2 can first be rotated about an axis relative to the frame 9, particularly as indicated by a curved double arrow. After displacement and / or rotation, the assembly 2 can then be fixed to the frame 9, thereby setting the former position.

[0072] At least one guide wire assembly 2 has a guide wire 10 with a sliding edge 10.1 and / or a wire gathering region 10.2. The position and / or alignment of the sliding edge 10.1 and / or the wire gathering region 10.2 can be set relative to a wire path simulated by the calibration wire 5. The setting of the guide wire 10 with the wire gathering region 10.2 shown here is specifically designed to make the head movement path of one of the top guide wires 7, 7.1 to 7.5 intersect with the simulated wire path, as described above. Due to the corresponding groove, the guide wire 10 is particularly capable of moving relative to the frame 9 in two directions, and in a certain position, on the one hand, it is connected to a support element arranged between the frame 9 and the guide wire 10 by a fastening device (e.g., screw) passing through the groove, and on the other hand, it is connected to the frame 9 by the support element. The support element can be displaced relative to the frame 9 in a first direction. The guide wire 10 can be displaced relative to the support element in a second direction, which in particular has an angle of 90° relative to the first direction.

[0073] At least one guide wire assembly 2 has a wire processing unit 11 for oiling and / or winding synthetic filaments through at least one wire processing channel 12. The wire processing channel 12 can be set relative to a simulated wire path by calibrating the wire 5. A first wire processing unit 11.1 for winding synthetic filaments is shown here, arranged in a simulated wire path between a first guide wire disk 6.1 and a second guide wire disk 6.2. A second wire processing unit 11.2 for winding synthetic filaments is also provided, arranged in a simulated wire path upstream of the first guide wire disk 6.1. For setting, the wire processing units 11, 11.1, 11.2 can be rotated about at least one wire processing unit axis, as indicated by the curved double arrow, and can be displaced along the axis of that wire processing unit, as indicated by the straight double arrow. The axis of this wire processing unit is particularly parallel to the axis of the guide wire disks 6, 6.1, 6.2 and particularly perpendicular to the wire processing channel 12. It is conceivable that the thread processing units 11, 11.1, and 11.2 used for setting can also be displaced perpendicular to their respective thread processing unit axes. It is also conceivable that only one of the two thread processing units 11, 11.1, and 11.2 shown here exists, specifically the first thread processing unit 11.1 shown here. Furthermore, the thread processing unit implemented as an oiling unit can be arranged in the simulated thread path downstream of the second guide disc.

[0074] Multiple synthetic filaments can be guided in a parallel, spaced-apart manner by means of the guide assembly 2. As illustrated symbolically here by example, five synthetic filaments can be guided in a parallel and spaced-apart manner. This number is correspondingly adapted to the number of filaments that can be wound by the winding device 3. The filament processing units 11, 11.1, and 11.2 have one filament processing channel 12 for each filament, wherein the filament processing channels 12 are arranged parallel to each other.

[0075] In addition, a yarn collecting unit 13 and a greening roller 14 are shown here as yarn guide assembly 2. The yarn collecting unit 13 has a suction unit and a yarn collector. The yarn collector has one guide for each yarn, specifically a U-shaped guide, arranged adjacent to each other. During operation of the winding device 3, the relative spacing between the yarns running on the guide discs 6, 6.1, 6.2, on the greening roller 14, and / or through the yarn handling units 11, 11.1, 11.2 is defined by the guides of the yarn collector. By moving the yarn collector toward the suction unit, in the event of a yarn breakage during operation of the winding device 3, the yarn can be collected and fed to the suction unit.

[0076] The starting roller 14 is rotatable and can be guided between the starting or standby position and the working position for automatic starting of yarn on the circumference of the guide discs 6, 6.1, 6.2. According to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The diagram shows the starting roller 14 positioned in its working position. The starting roller 14 is guided along a movement path on the frame 9 via a sliding guide rail 15, which intersects a common tangent on the guide roller sleeves of the guide rollers 6, 6.1, and 6.2. In this way, the yarn can initially be guided in a straight path laterally beside the guide rollers 6, 6.1, and 6.2, allowing the starting roller to automatically pick up the yarn as it is guided along the movement path from the starting position to the working position. By moving the starting roller 14 from the starting position to the working position, the yarn can be started on the guide rollers 6, 6.1, and 6.2 and threaded into the first yarn processing unit 11.1. No additional auxiliary equipment is required for the automatic starting of the yarn on the guide rollers 6, 6.1, and 6.2 and the first yarn processing unit 11.1. Threading into the first yarn processing unit 11.1 is understood to mean that each yarn is placed into its associated yarn processing channel 12. For the insertion to work, the first thread processing unit 11.1 must be set correctly, which is achieved in a simple and high-precision manner by adjusting the device 1.

[0077] The method for setting the guide assembly 2 of the winding device 3, and particularly the first yarn processing unit 11.1, will now be described below. In the method for setting the guide assembly 2 of the winding device 3 having the adjustment device 1, a calibration yarn 5 for simulating the yarn path of the synthetic yarn is guided on the guide assembly 2 and a plurality of guide rollers 4 of the adjustment device 1 to form a closed yarn path. At least one guide assembly 2 is set using the simulated yarn path.

[0078] First, the second thread processing unit 11.2 translates along its thread processing unit axis until the calibration thread 5 travels from one of the guides of the thread collector along the direction of gravity to the associated thread processing channel 12 of the second thread processing unit 11.2. For this purpose, a calibration thread suspended vertically from the guide of the thread collector can also be used, which at this point is not yet wound on the guide roller 4. Then, the second thread processing unit 11.2 rotates about its thread processing unit axis until the entry angle of the calibration thread 5 into the second thread processing unit 11.2 and the exit angle of the calibration thread 5 from the second thread processing unit 11.2 to the first guide disk 6.1 have the same value. During this period, the calibration thread 5 contacts the first guide disk 6.1.

[0079] While the guide wire assembly 2 is being set, the calibration wire 5 is moved at least temporarily along a closed wire path by at least one guide wire disc 6 within the simulated wire path. According to the embodiment shown here, the calibration wire 5 is preferably moved by two, specifically all available guide wire discs 6, 6.1, 6.2. In this way, excessive relative movement between the calibration wire 5 and the guide wire discs 6, 6.1, 6.2 can be avoided, thus successfully preventing damage to the calibration wire 5.

[0080] At least one guide wire assembly 2 is first set with a static calibration wire 5, and then with a calibration wire 5 moving along a closed wire path. Specifically, the first wire processing unit 11.1 is first set with a static calibration wire 5, and then with a calibration wire 5 moving along a closed wire path. The first wire processing unit 11.1 rotates about its wire processing unit axis until the entry angle of the calibration wire 5 into the first wire processing unit 11.1 (particularly originating from the green head roller 14 in its working position) and the exit angle of the calibration wire 5 from the first wire processing unit 11.1 (particularly towards the second guide wire disk 6.2) have the same value. During this period, the calibration wire 5 preferably contacts the green head roller 14 and the first guide wire disk 6.1. This rotation of the first wire processing unit 11.1 occurs with a static calibration wire 5. The term static calibration wire 5 means that the calibration wire 5 is not in motion. Then, as the guide discs 6, 6.1, and 6.2 rotate, the first wire processing unit 11.1 translates along its wire processing unit axis until the calibration wire 5 occupies a predetermined wire path, particularly a straight wire path, through the associated wire processing channel 12 of the first wire processing unit 11.1. During this process, due to the rotation of the guide discs 6, 6.1, and 6.2, the calibration wire 5 occupies the same position on the guide discs 6, 6.1, and 6.2, particularly at the same distance from the corresponding end faces of the respective guide discs 6, 6.1, and 6.2, as if the wire were on the winding device 3 or during automatic head forming and / or winding using the winding device 3.

[0081] The guide wire 10 is then positioned using the moving calibration wire 5. When the top guide wires 7, 7.1 to 7.5 are positioned in their standby position WS, the calibration wire 5 is arranged in the simulated wire path between the second guide disc 6.2 and the subsequent guide roller 4. The guide wire 10 is configured such that the starting movement path of the top guide wires 7, 7.1 to 7.5 intersects the simulated wire path. For this purpose, the top guide wires 7, 7.1 to 7.5 are preferably moved from the standby position WS to almost reach the calibration wire 5 or to such that the top guide wires 7, 7.1 to 7.5 slightly contact the calibration wire 5 with a small wrap angle.

[0082] In the case of multiple top wire guides 7, 7.1 to 7.5, this procedure is first performed for the central top wire guide 7, 7.3, as follows: Figure 4a Symbolically shown. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4aA first simulated wire path with a calibration wire 5 shown by solid lines is illustrated. The wire guide 10 initially translates parallel to the axes of the wire guide disks 6, 6.1, 6.2 until the calibration wire 5 runs perpendicular to the axes of the wire guide disks 6, 6.1, 6.2, specifically along the direction of gravity. In the case of an even number of top wire guides, there are two central top wire guides. In this case, the above process is performed for one of the two central top wire guides, and then the wire guide 10 subsequently translates parallel to the axes of the wire guide disks 6, 6.1, 6.2 by half the distance between the two central top wire guides, reaching the other of the two central top wire guides.

[0083] Subsequently, when the calibration wire 5 is in motion, the wire guide 10 is translated perpendicularly to the axis of the wire guide discs 6, 6.1, and 6.2, causing the starting motion path of the outermost top wire guides 7, 7.1 to 7.5 to intersect with the simulated, particularly the second wire path, as shown below. Figure 4b Symbolically shown. Figure 4b A second simulated yarn path with calibration yarn 5 shown by dashed lines is illustrated. In the second simulated yarn path, calibration yarn 5 is guided in the outer region of the outer yarn handling channel 12 (associated with the outermost top yarn guide 7.1 or 7.5), the outer yarn guide of the yarn collecting unit 13, and / or the guide discs 6, 6.1, 6.2. This ensures that when a group of multiple yarns is automatically headed on the top yarn guides 7, 7.1 to 7.5, all yarns are held by their respective associated top yarn guides 7, 7.1 to 7.5 as they move from their standby position WS to their working position BS, which applies to both odd and even numbers of yarns. During this process, while the top yarn guides 7, 7.1 to 7.5 are still positioned in their standby position WS, the yarns of the yarn group fan out from the yarn guide 10 against the yarn path running direction toward the second guide discs 6, 6.6.
