A motor includes a stationary portion that includes a shaft extending vertically along a central axis, a rotating portion that rotates around the central axis as a center, and a bearing that rotatably supports the rotating portion with respect to the shaft. The rotating portion includes on an outer side of the stationary portion in a radial direction a cylindrical motor casing that extends in an axial direction around the shaft as a center and a magnet that is disposed on an inner peripheral surface of the motor casing. The stationary portion includes a circuit board that is perpendicularly disposed with respect to the shaft, and a stator that is positioned below the circuit board in the axial direction and above the bearing in the axial direction. The stator includes a stator core that includes a ring-shaped core back having the central axis as the center and a plurality of teeth extending outward from the core back in the radial direction, and a coil that includes a conductor wire wound around the teeth. A first conductor wire that is led out from the coil is connected to the circuit board. A second conductor wire is connected to an upper surface of the circuit board in the axial direction.

A method for ring-spinning with pneumatic guiding and capturing includes steps of: respectively fixing a pneumatic guiding and capturing apparatus in front of each drawing system of a ring frame; twisting the ribbon-like strand outputted through a front roller nip to form a spinning strand, moving the spinning strand into a holder groove of a capturing holder; guiding ribbon-like strand edge fibers to closely contact with a spinning strand main body by negative pressure airflow in the holder groove; before the ribbon-like strand edge fibers enter an in-take opening, cohering the edge fibers with the spinning strand for being partly captured by the spinning strand stem; other un-captured edge fibers become spinning strand hairiness, which is then stretched and tightly wrapped onto the spinning strand stem by a negative pressure; the spinning strand is outputted from the holder groove outlet to get a high qualified spun yarn.

A driven ring assembly for a ring-spinning or ring-twisting machine includes a ring and an electric drive having a stator and a rotor with a magnet. A ring crown is on the ring and a ring traveler is on the ring crown. A connecting portion is between the ring and the rotor. The electric drive includes coil winding strands in the stator that generate a torque and radial forces. An axial degree of freedom and tilting degrees of freedom of the rotor are passively stabilized by reluctance forces and radial degrees of freedom of the rotor are actively stabilized by a control loop controlling current through the coil winding strands.

A yarn ring spinning and/or twisting machine with multiple balls, comprising means to move the relative position of the yarn guide (8) with respect to the yarn exit point (Y1) from the yarn feed means (1) with a trajectory (T) not aligned with the axis of rotation (V) during a spinning cycle, such that the trajectory of the yarn along a lower area (LB) between the yarn guide (8) and the cursor-ring assembly (5), where at least 2 balls are formed, does not foul the yarn collection means (4) in order for the spinning process to be stable. Preferably, the trajectory (T) of the yarn guide (8) has a first section which moves the yarn guide (8) on the axis of rotation (V) of the yarn collection means (4), and a second section which moves the yarn guide (8) away from the axis of rotation (V) of the yarn collection means (4).

A yarn spinning and/or twisting machine with multiple balls, comprising a yarn-feeding means (1), a yarn collection means for the yarn (4) with a rotation axis (V), a yarn guide (8) located between the yarn-feeding means (1) and the yarn collection means (4), means for the generation of the diameter of the ball (DB), motorised means linked to the yarn collection means (4), where the internal diameter of the yarn guide (8) is greater than the diameter of standard yarn guides (8) for each type of yarn, and smaller than 1.1 times the diameter of the ball generator (DB). Preferably, the internal diameter of the yarn guide (8) is between 0.01 and 0.9 times the diameter of the ball generator (DB).
