Abstract
A spinning or twisting ring assembly and method of utilization thereof provide for unexpectedly reduced noise. The ring assembly includes a metal ring for mounting a traveler, a rigid holder support, and an annular ring holder of resilient material operatively connecting the ring and support. The support has two openings formed therein radially outward of the ring, and spaced about 180.degree. apart. Each opening receives a fastener, the fastener extending through the opening and connecting the support to a ring rail. Between the support and the ring rail is a bushing of resilient material which isolates the support from the ring rail so that no portion of the support touches the ring rail and no metal portion of the fastener touches the ring rail. The assembly allows slight movement of the ring with the traveler.
