Abstract
An axial disc brake, particularly for a yarn feeding device, having braking surfaces which are axially pressed against each other with a predetermined yieldable contact pressure. One of said braking surfaces has a spherical convex shape, and the other braking surface is conical with a cone axis lying at least approximately along the axis of the disc brake. The axial disc brake can be provided at the front end of a storage drum of a yarn feeding device of a projectile or gripper weaving machine, such that the yarn withdrawn from the storage drum rotates like the pointer of a clock along a yarn guiding surface and directly enters into the contact zone of the braking surfaces without deflection, and is deflected after having passed the contact zone gently in the axial direction.
