Abstract
An apparatus for processing an advancing warp sheet of yarns is disclosed, and which includes at least one yarn guide reed which serves to maintain a predetermined lateral separation between the individual yarns of the warp sheet. The reed includes a transverse row of pins which define yarn receiving slots therebetween. To facilitate the thread-up of the warp sheet onto the reed, there is provided an elongate support rail which is positioned parallel to and above the row of pins. During the threading procedure, a first portion of the yarns is withdrawn from their packages and transported along the path of travel of the warp sheet through the apparatus. At each reed, the portion of yarns is laid across the upper surface of the support rail, and the yarns are subsequently transferred from the upper surface of the support rail into individual ones of the yarn receiving slots defined between the pins. A next portion of the yarns is then threaded in the above described manner, and the procedure is repeated until all of the yarns have been threaded onto the apparatus.
