ABSTRACT:
A releasable thread clamping device having a hollow knotter mandrel rotatable about its longitudinal axis and a knotter needle made of resilient material mounted within the knotter mandrel and supported for axial displacement relative to the knotter mandrel. The knotter needle has a free end which engages under tension the inner wall of the knotter mandrel. A lifting needle is provided and is supported for movement parallel to the longitudinal axis thereof and has adjacent its free end a first inclined surface extending at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis thereof. The knotter needle has a second inclined surface which is axially aligned with the first inclined surface on the lifting needle. A control mechanism is provided for effecting an axial shifting of the lifting needle to effect a movement of the first inclined surface into and out of engagement with the second inclined surface so that following an engagement of the first and second inclined surfaces, a continued movement of the lifting needle will effect an urging of the free end of the knotter needle away from the inner wall.
