ABSTRACT:
A strand accumulator apparatus for the transitory accumulation of moving strand material is disclosed which includes a strand accumulator drum and first and second sets of rolls carried by the accumulator drum and arranged in a generally circular pattern about the central axis of the drum with a plurality of grooves formed in the peripheral surface of each roll. First and second guide means cooperate with first and second sets of rolls to guide the incoming and outgoing strands of material to and from the rolls of the accumulator drum. The accumulator drum is rotated about its central axis in one direction to accumulate strand and in the opposite direction to pay out the accumulated strand.
