The invention relates to a drum intermediate storage of yarn for a textile machine having a driven rotary drum with a working surface and a movable radial rotary arm. The driven rotary drum is coupled with a first drive and the arm is coupled with a second drive, whereby both drives are composed of motors and both motors are connected to a control system of the textile machine. The radial rotary arm is provided with a yarn guide, whose working portion upholds the yarn radially relative to the axis of rotation of the drum.

A yarn winding assembly installed on a support includes a motorized spool and an oblique spacer pin, between which a yarn is wound. The spacer pin is supported rotatably by a rotating supporting component so that it is entrained in two directions by the yarn wound between the spool and the spacer pin. The rotation of the spacer pin is delimited by an element of arrest at least in a direction of unwinding the yarn.

A method for laying multiple conductors in a container may be provided. The method may comprise receiving the multiple conductors at a monitoring station; receiving the multiple conductors at a drive; and receiving the multiple conductors at the container.

Disclosed is a tensioner for the controlled clamping and forward movement of an elongate element, in particular for winding/unwinding a cable, a hose, a pipeline or an umbilical on a reception member. The tensioner includes at least one frame that carries three guide boxes arranged around a passage axis. This tensioner includes a unit for maneuvering these guide boxes, in particular second maneuvering unit for the maneuvering in rectilinear, or at least substantially rectilinear, translation of lateral guide boxes, respectively in a direction defining an angle of between 115° and 125°, and preferably between 118° and 122°, with respect to the central plane. These second maneuvering unit includes at least one rocker element including a proximal end mounted so as to pivot on the frame and a distal end mounted so as to pivot on the lateral guide box, respectively about rotation axes extending parallel to the passage axis.
