Abstract
Disclosed is an invention relating to a method and an apparatus for closing the toe end of a hose material, wherein the toe portion of the hose material is united in such a way that the toe portion can be closed with a straight line stitching after the material is spread out laterally and caused to travel in a lateral direction. A photocell-type detecting device is also disposed near one end of the suction tubes of the holding units so as to detect the presence or absence of the end of a hose material within the tube. This detecting device serves to shut off the winding-on means which pulls the hose material onto the holding unit from within the suction tube.
