A conveyor for textile machines such as open-end spinning frames, winding machines, two-for-one twisting machines, and the like, which comprises a static conveyor channel, supply levers that cooperate momentarily with the conveyor channel and are provided with a to-and-fro movement, actuators for causing the supply leaves to cooperate momentarily with the conveyor channel, and positioners for the tubes. The conveyor may be installed parallel to the working side of the machine, and apparatus to gear-up and increase the to-and-fro travel distance of some of the supply leavers may be advantageously included.

Step-by-step conveyor of tubes for textile machines

Apparatus for conveying cops from bulk storage to a usage station through intermediate storage points which includes a first conveyor belt which is sloped substantially upwardly carrying lateral limiting dividers to define single cop compartments, a second substantially horizontal or downwardly sloped conveyor belt, carrying pivotal limiting dividers to define single cop compartments whereby the limiting dividers for forming the single cop compartments pivot downwardly; an intermediate storage point substantially parallel and above the second belt carrying lateral guides for the cops and a frontal stop at the end of the intermediate storage point. At least one compartment of the first conveyor belt substantially coincides with one compartment of the second conveyor belt at a temporary position where they are both halted at the same time. The first belt moves step by step out of phase with the second belt which moves step to step.
