Abstract
The supply chute of the present invention operates to supply empty bobbins to a bobbin reserve unit provided above a conveyor for transporting empty bobbins to a spinning frame, while maintaining the empty bobbins in substantially horizontal position as they fall down the chute. The chute presents a zigzag-shaped route in the direction of movement of the empty bobbins, which route is comprised of a plurality of subtantially vertically extending sections each having a length smaller than the length of the empty bobbin, each section being offset laterally with respect to the adjoining section or sections.
