AI Technical Summary
Existing yarn unwinders suffer from poor or jerky unwinding behavior, leading to knots and tangles, especially when used in manual crafts where both hands are occupied, due to rotational forces causing tilting and jamming under angled loads.
A device with a support element centrally connected to an axle, rotatably connected to a retaining element via a ball bearing swivel, ensuring symmetrical load distribution and smooth unwinding, even under transverse loads, using detachable connecting elements for easy assembly and disassembly.
Enables continuous, tension-free, and smooth unwinding of yarn, allowing uninterrupted manual work with both hands free, and is portable and reliable under various loads.
