Abstract

A thread storage and delivery device for textile machines, including a housing having a thread supply device rotatably supported thereon and defining a thread channel, a rotatably supported drum axle, a storage drum, and a gearing arrangement with at least one driven wheel which can be driven by means of a carrier pin carried by the thread supply device so that the drum rolls along on a housing-fixed rolling path. The gearing arrangement couples the storage drum to the thread supply device in such a manner that the storage drum stands still with respect to the housing as the thread supply device is rotatably driven. This gearing arrangement engages the drum axle which is fixedly connected to the storage drum and is supported rotatably on the thread supply device, and the thread channel is arranged at a radial distance from the drum axis and extends substantially rectilinearly.
