  • the seed yarn Y pulled from the seed yarn bobbin 71 is held by the clamp cutter for seed yarn 73 after passing through the slit of the seed yarn transferring lever 72 and the notch of the guide for seed yarn 77.

  • Step S204 After the seed yarn Y is cut, the seed yarn Y held by the clamp cutter for seed yarn 73 is released, and the yarn trap 74 is operated to suck yarn waste held by the clamp cutter for seed yarn 73 with the yarn trap 74. Then, the doffing controlling section 3a drives the chucker driving section 58 to set an empty winding tube Q on the cradle 41 (Step S204). Note that, it is allowable to appropriately change the contents of Steps S203 and S204. For example, it is allowable to perform a part of the processing of Step S203 and a part of the processing of Step S204 simultaneously.
  • the doffing controlling section 3a drives the yarn shifting motor 63 to rotate the yarn shifting lever 62 horizontally to, as shown in FIG. 10D , hook the seed yarn Y present between the clamp cutter 51 and the tip end part of the seed yarn transferring lever 72 with the tip end part of the yarn shifting lever 62 and move the hooked seed yarn Y to the right side of the winding tube Q.
  • the state shown in FIG. 7A is achieved.
  • the seed yarn transferring lever 72 is returned to the standby position inside the openable-closable member 50a.
  • the bunch winding is formed after fixing the seed yarn Y to the winding tube Q (Step S205). Because the operation performed at Step S205 is the same as that performed at Step S104 in the doffing process, a detained explanation of the operation performed at Step S205 will be omitted.
  • the doffing controlling section 3a causes the traversing drum 42 to perform the normal rotation while slowly returning the yarn shifting lever 62 toward the standby position. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 10E , a starter package SP in which the seed yarn Y has been wound on the winding tube Q is formed (Step S206). Then, the seed yarn Y present between the starter package SP and the seed yarn transferring lever 72 is moved by a transferring mechanism 9 arranged in the doffing device 3 near to the suction port 55a of the suction mouth 55 that is in the standby position.
  • the transferring mechanism 9 is constituted by the yarn shifting lever 62, the fixed guide 64, and the yarn transferring lever 65. The normal rotation of the traversing drum 42 is stopped before the seed yarn Y is cut at Step S210.
  • Step S207 When the yarn shifting lever 62 is rotated further toward the standby position, as shown in FIGS. 10F and 11A , the seed yarn Y is hooked with the retaining member 64a of the fixed guide 64 and retained (Step S207). In this state, the rotation of the yarn shifting lever 62 is once stopped, and then an operation to move the seed yarn Y near to the suction port 55a of the suction mouth 55 that is in the standby position is performed by using the yarn transferring lever 65. Such an operation is explained by referring to FIGS. 11A to 12C .
  • the seed yarn Y present between the yarn shifting lever 62 and the fixed guide 64 spans over the yarn transferring lever 65 in the front-back direction, and a yarn path that passes on the left side of the yarn transferring lever 65 is formed.
  • the doffing controlling section 3a drives the yarn transferring motor 66 to rotate the yarn transferring lever 65 clockwise when seen from the back direction.
  • the seed yarn Y is pushed to the left lower side while the seed yarn Y has entered into the concave part 65c of the yarn transferring lever 65, and the seed yarn Y retained by the retaining member 64a is released (Step S208).
  • the seed yarn Y that slips from the retaining member 64a of the fixed guide 64 and the concave part 65c of the yarn transferring lever 65 goes over a left end of the fixed guide 64 from the back direction to the front direction, and, as shown in FIG. 11C , passes through the notch of the guide for seed yarn 77 and the clamp cutter for seed yarn 73 and is put on a left hand side of the protruding member 64b of the fixed guide 64.
  • the yarn transferring lever 65 is further rotated counterclockwise and makes approximately one rotation, as shown in FIG.
  • the seed yarn Y contacts the convex part 65d of the yarn transferring lever 65, and as the yarn transferring lever 65 rotates further, the seed yarn Y moves above along an edge of the convex part 65d and finally goes into the hooking member 65b.
  • the yarn transferring lever 65 is further rotated counterclockwise in the state in which the seed yarn Y has been hooked by the hooking member 65b, as shown in FIG. 12B , the seed yarn Y passes just in front of a central part of the suction port 55a of the suction mouth 55. At this point, the rotation of the yarn transferring lever 65 is once stopped. Because the seed yarn Y hooked by the hooking member 65b is pulled by the yarn transferring lever 65, just before attending the state shown in FIG. 12B , the seed yarn Y slips from the yarn shifting lever 62, and, with this, the yarn shifting lever 62 is returned to the standby position.
  • Step S210 When the seed yarn Y is just in front of the suction port 55a, if the seed yarn Y is cut by the clamp cutter for seed yarn 73, as shown in FIG. 12C , the yarn end of the seed yarn Y from the starter package SP is sucked by the suction port 55a of the suction mouth 55, and this yarn end can be sucked and held with the suction mouth 55 (Step S210).
  • the yarn transferring lever 65 is rotated clockwise when seen from the back direction only a little almost simultaneously with cutting the seed yarn Y with the clamp cutter for seed yarn 73.
  • the doffing controlling section 3a drives the yarn flying motor 68 to rotate the yarn flying lever 67 in the back direction.
  • the yarn picking member 67b of the yarn flying lever 67 picks the seed yarn Y that was moved downward by the yarn transferring lever 65, and, as shown in FIG. 13C , moves the seed yarn Y near to the suction port of the yarn passing nozzle 34 of the yarn accumulating device 30 (Step S213).
  • the yarn transferring mechanism 8 which guides the yarn Y from the package P to the suction port of the yarn passing nozzle 34, is constituted by the yarn transferring lever 65 and the yarn flying lever 67.
  • Steps S212 and S213 are equivalent to a "yarn transferring step" of the present invention.
  • the yarn Y from the yarn supplying bobbin B subjected to the yarn joining by the yarn joining device 22 is all monitored with the yarn monitoring device 25 arranged downstream of the yarn joining device 22 so that the yarn Y can be removed when a yarn defect is found. Therefore, if the seed yarn Y wound on the seed yarn bobbin 71 is an inspected and non-defective product, the package P formed after the yarn-type changing process will have superior quality with no yarn Y having a yarn defect.
  • Step S305 When the suction mouth 55 is returned to the standby position, the state shown in FIG. 13A is achieved. Then the yarn Y present between the package P and the suction mouth 55 is moved downward with the yarn transferring lever 65 (Step S305), and the yarn Y is guided with the yarn flying lever 67 near to the suction port of the yarn passing nozzle 34 (Step S306) . Steps S305 and S306 are equivalent to the "yarn transferring step" of the present invention.
  • the yarn transferring mechanism 8 and the guiding mechanism 7 collaborate with each other whereby the process of guiding the yarn Y from the package P to the yarn joining device 22 after passing the yarn Y through the yarn accumulating device 30 can be automated. Accordingly, the time required to perform the yarn joining, therefore, the time to start (restart) the winding, can be shortened and the production efficiency of the package P can be improved.
  • the doffing device 3 includes the seed yarn supplying section 70 for supplying a new type of the yarn Y in the yarn-type changing process
  • the winding unit 2 forms the starter package SP by winding on the winding tube Q the seed yarn Y that is supplied from the seed yarn supplying section 70 in the yarn-type changing process
  • the yarn Y from the starter package SP is guided to the yarn joining device 22 by the yarn transferring mechanism 8 and the guiding mechanism 7.
  • the starter package SP is formed by using the seed yarn Y supplied from the seed yarn supplying section 70.
  • the starter package SP can be prepared beforehand and set on the cradle 41, and thereafter the yarn-type changing process can be started.
