Abstract:
A method for winding a body of a spun yarn from an inner wall of a rotating spinning centrifuge of a pot spinning machine onto a winding tube having a slot at a foot thereof, wherein the winding tube surrounds a yarn guide tube having a leading end extending into the spinning centrifuge with a mouth at the leading end from which mouth the spun yarn travels to the inner wall of the spinning centrifuge, the method comprising:a) inserting the foot of the winding tube into the spinning centrifuge beyond the mouth of the yarn guide tube,b) catching a rotating extent of the spun yarn between the mouth of the yarn guide tube and the inner wall of the spinning centrifuge, by the slot at the foot of the winding tube to initiate winding of the body of the spun yarn onto the winding tube as the spinning centrifuge rotates and to separate from the body of the spun yarn on the winding tube near the slot at the foot of the winding tube a remnant extent of the spun yarn trailing the rotating extent thereof; andc) removing the separated trailing remnant extent of the spun yarn.
