A yarn traversing device (11) for a spooling device (4) of a textile machine producing cross-wound bobbins (1) comprises a yarn guide (25), which is connected by an endless tensioning means designed as a toothed belt (30) to a single drive (34), wherein the toothed belt (30) rotates in a largely closed housing (23) of the yarn traversing device (11) and is guided by guide wheels (31 or 32) arranged laterally next to a traversing area (B) and a drive wheel (41) connected to the electric motor single drive (34). The guide wheels (31 or 32) each have a smooth running surface (33), which is largely resistant to dirt, over which the toothed belt (30) runs with its toothing (38).

A method for winding can include positioning a multi-sided object on a winding component in a first position. The method can include dereeling a wire from a dereeler and winding onto the multi-sided object in the first position. The method can include rotating the winding component to position the multi-sided object in a second position without removing the multi-sided object from the winding component. The method can include dereeling the wire from the dereeler and winding onto the multi-sided object in the second position.

A thread guide device for the winding apparatus of a workstation of a textile machine producing cross-wound bobbins, wherein the winding apparatus has a bobbin drive roller for rotating a cross-wound bobbin, and also a thread traversing device for traversing a thread running onto the surface of the cross-wound bobbin. In order, when winding a cross-wound bobbin during which a thread running onto the surface of a cross-wound bobbin is traversed and a thread traversing triangle thus results, to prevent thread length changes occurring which would have a negative effect on the winding result, there is provision according to the invention that the thread guide device has a spherically formed thread slide surface.

A thread-splicing device for a workstation of a textile machine that produces cross-wound bobbins and has a splicing prism with a splicing channel to which pneumatic pressure can be applied, as well as thread-guiding plates arranged on both sides of the splicing channel, and which is equipped with thread-locking means. At least one interfering element is positioned on both sides of the splicing prism in a region between the thread-guiding plates and a thread-locking means in such a way that the thread ends to be spliced contact the interfering element during the splicing process.

Thread-guiding device for a workstation of a textile machine which produces cross-wound bobbins. The workstation has an unwinding aid device for feed bobbins, a winding device for producing a cross-wound bobbin and a thread-guiding channel which surrounds the thread path and which can be subjected to negative pressure. The thread-guiding device is installed at the end face of the thread-guiding channel in the region of a suction head above the regular thread path in the workstation and is designed such that during a thread cutting process initiated during the winding operation, the thread end of the newly created upper thread, said thread end shooting upwards as a result of the thread tension in the running thread, enters the thread-guiding device and is guided in a controlled manner by the thread-guiding device in the direction of the center of the cross-wound bobbin.

Addressed is the object of improving an unwinding performance of a glass direct roving at an end surface. A method of manufacturing a glass direct roving includes winding a glass strand into a cylindrical shape while traversing the glass strand. In the winding, the glass strand is wound traversing the glass strand under the conditions that a wind order of the crosswinding is or greater, and an interval parameter, which is the smaller value among b and Ab, is from (A/2)*(A/4)* to (A/2)*1, where A is the wind order, (A/2)* is a maximum integer no greater than the wind order, (A/4)* is a maximum integer no greater than the wind order, and a mixed fraction a+(b/A) is used to express a cyclewind of the crosswinding.
