ABSTRACT:
A ball type yarn tensioning device is disclosed which includes in side by side juxtaposition a ball chamber and a threading chamber. An elongated, vertical aperture is provided between the two chambers to permit the passing therethrough of a yarn threading instrument for threading purposes. After the yarn tensioning device is threaded, the yarn will follow an inclined path from the bottom of the ball chamber, through the aperture and out of the top of the threading chamber. The ball chamber terminates downwardly in a bottom insert which provides a seat for a ball within the ball chamber for yarn tensioning. The threading chamber terminates upwardly in a top insert to resist abrasion by a running yarn. Preferably, the threading chamber is downwardly open to permit lint and other debris to continuously drop from the device in an unobstructed manner.
