Abstract
A device is described for laying-out a convolute web of material, in particular a web of textile material, coming from a bale of cloth, said device comprising a frame structure which is adapted to be moved longitudinally along a stationary support structure and on which, via suspension means, the bale of cloth is supported such that it is caused to rotate about its winding shaft in response to the longitudinal movement of said frame structure. The drive means of the bale of cloth is constructed such that slippage between said drive means and said bale of cloth--which would prevent rotation of said bale of cloth--is avoided and that, with the aid of very simple structural means, a wide range of use of the device equipped with said drive means is achieved. For this purpose, the drive means comprises a tight rope, which, via guide rolls adapted to be displaced together with the frame structure, is guided over part of the surface of the bale of cloth in a position of frictional engagement.
