Abstract

Buffer storage device for transfering textile coils from an irregularly operating coil feeding device to a uniformly advancing coil delivery device having a given coil delivery velocity includes a multiplicity of identical transport elements for at least one textile coil, respectively, the transport elements being shiftable towards one another, a conveyor section extending from the coil feeding device to the coil delivery device, the transport elements being movable on the conveyor section from the coil feeding device to the coil delivery device with varying and at least two-stage travel velocity so that the travel velocity thereof at least immediately before reaching the coil delivery device, in travel direction of the transport elements, corresponds to the given coil delivery velocity and otherwise is greater than the coil delivery velocity.
