Abstract
Cradle for a twisting machine with a brake for a reel spindle comprising a brake drum and first and second brake shoes operable in succession. The in succession operation is achieved with a brake release link which pivots about either of two relatively offset axes. A component of load is placed upon the release link initially in one direction to cause it to pivot around one of the axes and operate the first brake shoe. Pivoting then takes place around the other axis to operate the second brake shoe.
