Abstract

The invention relates to a material store for the through transport of a length of textile material. It contains a storage vessel with an upright delivery shaft, an upright extraction shaft and a turn-round section which connects the lower ends of the shafts, and transport arrangements for the delivery and removal of the length of material are provided above the two shafts. In the turn-round section of the storage vessel the length of material is turned round with the aid of a rotating turn-round device and a break roller can be pivoted from the inner face of each of the shafts into the cross-section of the shaft. By these means the length of material is transported through the storage vessel satisfactorily and extremely gently with an extremely high degree of stabilization.
