ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a yarn cutting and gripping device of the type including a plurality of strip-like elements lengthwise movable adjacent a fixed blade and having a hooked end for cutting the yarn in cooperation with the fixed blade. The strip-like elements are resiliently urged against the fixed blade by a block arranged at the side of the strip-like elements opposite to the fixed blade. Each element has a lug extending below the hooked end substantially parallel thereto and recessed with respect to the cutting plane so as to seize the yarn and cause it to form a loop about this lug before and after being cut by the hooked end, thus increasing the retaining force of the cut yarn. The strip-like elements may be formed by two parallel parts, the one having the hooked end and the other the projecting lug.
