ABSTRACT:
Bolts (10, 13) of material such as fabric, supported in open-topped bearing elements (6, 14) are exchanged by apparatus comprising a carrier (24). The carrier (24) has closable openings for engagement with spindle ends (8) projecting from the bolts (10, 13). When the carrier (24) has engaged the bolts (10, 13), it is raised (arrow 28), rotated about 180.degree. (arrow 26) and lowered (arrow 28), so changing over the positions of the bolts (10, 13). For example, operations performed on a table (1) on material taken from one bolt (10) may be completed, so that bolt (10) is replaced by a further bolt (13) taken from a magazine (12), the first bolt (10) simultaneously taking the place of the second bolt (13) in the magazine.
