ABSTRACT:
A textile yarn carrier adapted to receive a yarn tail at the base thereof without breaking the yarn tail. The yarn carrier includes a body having an outer face about which yarn may be wrapped, an inner face, and an annular face at its bottom end. A plurality of adjacent, circumferentially oriented, semielliptical depressions are formed in the bottom face of the yarn carrier. Each depression extends from the outer face, radially across the bottom face, and upwardly along and into the inner face. In the preferred embodiment, the depressions are uniform in size and are spaced generally evenly around the periphery of the body, so that the bottom and inner faces of the yarn carrier are adapted to guide and receive a yarn tail in at least one yarn protecting depression on each side of the body. An end holder cap for mating with the bottom end of the textile yarn carrier is also provided. The end holder cap has an annular flange for contacting the bottom face of the yarn carrier at a plurality of points intermediate each semielliptical depression, and a resilient circumferential face for engaging the inner face of the carrier at a plurality of points intermediate each depression. Thus, when the yarn carrier is mounted on the end holder cap, each yarn protecting depression cooperates with an associated area of the end holder cap to define a passage for receiving a yarn tail.
