Abstract

A yarn storage and delivery arrangement, particularly for textile machines, has a storage drum (4) that has a number of elongated yarn support elements (12) arranged evenly around the circumference at equal radial distances from the drum axis; and having yarn storage contact sections (13) to store several loops or turns of a storage winding. To achieve a simple, low-inertia design of the storage drum, the yarn support elements (12) are formed by U or L-shaped narrow bails or wire elements fastened at least at one end to the drum body (5) and guided at the other end by the drum body or a part connected thereto.
