Abstract

A yarn winding apparatus for winding a cross wound package, and comprising a cutting blade arranged below the traversing triangle and a yarn lifting member which is adapted for movement between positions below and above the traversing triangle. When the winding of a package is completed, the lifting member is lifted, which in turn lifts the advancing yarn from its traversing triangle, and in addition, the lifting member captures and retains the advancing yarn in a laterally fixed position. Upon the subsequent lowering of the lifting member, the captured yarn is brought into the engagement with the cutting blade and severed. In the lifted position of the lifting member, the advancing yarn also may be lifted from its reciprocating yarn guide so that a plurality of circumferential final winds are formed on the completed package.
