ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for preparing an end of a strand of textile material built into a package includes a conduit for supporting the strand end during unwinding and a device for engaging the unwound strand end to apply yieldable resistance thereto in opposition to rewinding of the strand end onto the textile package. Additionally, the strand preparing apparatus preferably includes a conduit operatively connected to a suction source and having an opening, the conduit being disposed for applying suction through the opening to the package. A rewinding guide member is selectively positionable along the conduit opening for adjusting the relative position at which the unwound strand end exits the conduit during rewinding onto the package to thereby vary the predetermined axial location on the package onto which the strand end is rewound. A device for reducing the effective transverse cross-sectional area of the conduit includes a plate member disposable adjacent the opening for controlling the suction to predetermined values along the conduit opening.
