Spindle pot bearing for a twisting machine, in particular a two-for-one twisting machine or cabling machine, having a bearing bush for connecting a spindle pot base to a spindle in an interlocking manner in an axial direction. In order to provide a spindle pot bearing for a twisting machine that ensures that the position of the spindle pot on the spindle is reliably secured, it is provided that: a first bearing portion of the bearing bush for connecting, in an interlocking manner in the axial direction, to a first bearing member arranged on the spindle has, at a distance with respect to the direction of the longitudinal axis from a shoulder limiting the first bearing portion, latching protrusions which protrude from an inside of the bearing bush and are movable between a blocking position and an unblocking position; a second bearing portion of the bearing bush, said second bearing portion adjoining the first bearing portion in the direction of the longitudinal axis, is designed for interlockingly connecting to the spindle pot base in such a way that locking in the axial direction is possible; and a blocking is arranged on the spindle pot base, which blocking fixes the latching protrusions in the blocking position when the spindle pot base is in an operating position.

A textile machine component and to a method for providing component information at the textile machine component, in particular at a spindle arrangement for spinning or twisting machines. In order to ensure permanent and reliable provision of component information at a plastic-coated textile machine component, provision is made for the textile machine component to be enclosed at least in sections by a heat-shrinkable plastic enclosure that provides the component information, the enclosure being shrunk onto the textile machine component. In order to provide a plastic-coated textile machine component, in particular a spindle arrangement, with component information that can be acquired reliably, provision is made for a plastic enclosure that provides component information to be shrunk onto at least a section of the textile machine component.

A method of producing at least one yarn formed by spinning at least two individual fibers, comprising the following steps: providing at least two individual fibers, to be spun to form the at least one yarn to be produced, feeding the at least two provided fibers to a spinning device comprising at least one spindle element or bobbin element via a guide device comprising a plurality of, in particular cylinder-like or cylindrical, guide elements, spinning the fed fibers in the spinning device, forming the at least one yarn to be produced, wherein the at least two individual fibers are fed to the spinning device via at least two separate, in particular cylinder-like or cylindrical, guide elements that are arranged such that they are spatially separated from one another in at least one spatial direction.

A gripper for electrical or optical lines (24, 24) such as wires, cables, line bundles, optical fibers has two gripper jaws (22, 22) movable relative to a counterbearing as well as relative to one another. Twisting heads (4) for twisting apparatuses for the lines (24, 24) are equipped with such grippers. The gripper and the twisting head (4) and the twisting apparatus are provided with a drive arrangement including at least one adjustable-force drive (17) that acts via a link chain (15, 19, 19, 20, 20) on gripper jaw (22, 22). The link chain (15, 19, 19, 20, 20) in this case has a section (19, 19) movable parallel to the drive (17), but in the opposite direction of movement.
