Abstract
The spool carrier of a double twist textile twister is held in space by connecting it to two rotatable assemblies which rotate respectively about a centered axis and an oblique axis. The obliquely oriented assembly is connected to the spool carrier by means of bearings in a bearing housing, the exterior surface of which has two oppositely facing, transversely oriented convex cylindrical surfaces. A base on the spool carrier has depending portions with planar interior faces which engage the convex cylindrical surfaces with a minimum of play.
