ABSTRACT:
An improved creel assembly for use with strand winding devices such as warpers or the like. The creel has modules supporting yarn packages on both an active side and an inactive side, and also has yarn tensioning devices separately associated with both sides of the modules. The modules and yarn tensioning devices rotate as an entire assembly. Fresh yarn packages thus can be preloaded on the inactive side of the creel, and prethreaded through the tensioning devices associated with the inactive side, before the creel modules are rotated to the active side of the creel. Also disclosed is an improved balloon guard having a yarn opening sufficiently large to accommodate a person's hand for threading yarn through the opening, yet which accomplishes the anti-ballooning function of the balloon guard.
