Abstract
An apparatus for winding a textile yarn into a cross-wound package is disclosed, in which the yarn is wound about the package at a substantially constant rate while the yarn is guided onto the package by a traversing guide. The apparatus includes a yarn guide means which is reciprocated along a linear stroke path, and means are provided for recovering the kinetic energy of the yarn guide means during its reversal of movement at each end of the stroke path. Several specific embodiments of the yarn traversing guide are disclosed, and in one embodiment the traversing guide includes gripper means mounted on a slide which is positioned between parallel runs of a drive belt, and control means for moving the gripper means to alternately engage the two runs of the belt and thus reciprocate the slide.
