ABSTRACT:
An improved spindle assembly construction for a textile yarn processing machine, such as a two-for-one twister and the like, which normally includes a rotatably driven rotor mechanism having a horizontally-extending reserve yarn storage disc and a generally vertically-extending hollow axle defining therewithin a yarn passageway extending therethrough and radially out of the storage disc, a stationary yarn supply package carrier mechanism rotatably mounted on the rotor mechanism so that the rotor mechanism rotates relative thereto, a yarn guide eyelet positioned above and in axial alignment with the hollow axle, and a driven yarn take-up winding mechanism, so that the yarn may be withdrawn from the supply package by the winding mechanism and pass through the passageway and through the eyelet to form a rotating balloon of yarn between the eyelet and the storage disc and around the carrier mechanism and the supply package as a result of the rotation of the rotor mechanism. The improvement includes a freely-rotatable, generally horizontally-extending plate means unattached to the storage disc and positioned between the storage disc and the eyelet within the balloon of yarn formed therebetween and being of a greater diameter than the carrier mechanism and the yarn supply package to substantially prevent contact therewith by the yarn in the rotating balloon and for allowing free rotation of the plate means with the rotating balloon at a speed less than the speed of rotation of the storage disc to reduce windage loss by and power consumption for driving the rotor mechanism which occurs when the plate means is attached to the storage disc.
