  • the length of the selected yarn is automatically converted to a number of pulses to be outputted to the pulse motor M1 or set as a number of pulses. Since the circumferential length of the storing drum unit 57 has been preliminarily known, the length of the yarn to be wound is set as a number of pulses based upon the number of pulses required for one rotation of the pulse motor M1 and the circumferential length. Therefore, the length of the yarn to be wound is set by a unit of mm.
  • the pulse motor M1 In a normal winding operation, when the selected yarn has been wound around the storing drum unit 57 by the length that has been determined, the pulse motor M1 is stopped by an instruction from the control unit 16, while the next predetermined type of yarn is selected, and joined to the leading yarn. During said yarn-joining operation, a motor M2 on the take-up unit 15 side continues to rotate so that the yarn stored in the storing drum unit 57 is wound up by a package P. Upon completion of the yarn-joining process, the pulse motor M1 is again driven, and rotates by the number of pulses corresponding to the set length of the newly stored yarn. In this manner, the yarns of the predetermined types and lengths are wound up on packages P.
  • the storing speed (rotation speed of the motor M1) is greater than the winding speed (rotation speed of the winding-use motor M2);however,whenthe yarn-joining operations are frequently carried out, the stored yarn reduces, sometimes causing the reduction position sensor 59 to detect the no-yarn state.
  • the winding-use motor M2 is temporarily stopped, and the yarn storing operation to the storing drum unit 57 is preferentially carried out.
  • the winding-use motor M2 is again driven to rotate.
  • the winding-use motor M2 may be driven to rotate at a reduced speed without stopping so that the storing process may be carried out while continuing the winding process.
  • the amount of wound yarn on the storing drum 57 increases so that upon detection of the yarn-storing state by the position sensor 60 for detecting the maximum position, the motor M1 is stopped, and the winding process is preferentially carried out by rotating only the winding-use motor M2.
  • the motor M1 is again driven to resume the storing process of yarn on the storing drum 57.
  • the speed of the winding-use motor M2 is increased without stopping the motor M1 to continue the rotation; thus, the amount of stored yarn on the storing drum 57 may be reduced by increasing the winding speed.
  • the detection signals indicating the yarn-storing state or the no-yarn state given by the first and second position sensors 59 and 60 are used to stop or drive the motors M1 and M2; however, since the types and lengths of yarns to be selected are preliminarily determined, the winding speed (rotation speed of the winding-use motor M2) may be set at a low speed in the case when one type of yarn the length of which is comparatively short is continuously fed, and the winding speed may be set at a high speed in the case when another type of yarn the length of which is comparatively long is continuously fed. Thus, it becomes possible to carry out an effective winding process without stopping/driving the motor.
