| 20100037759 | BRAIDING BOBBIN, BRAIDING MACHINE AND METHOD FOR DRAWING OFF A FIBER FROM THE SPOOL OF A BRAIDING BOBBIN - A braiding bobbin includes a shaft and a spool from which a fiber thread can be drawn off through a thread guide mounted to rotate on the shaft. At least one torsion spring joins the shaft and the spool to each other. The spool is rotatable in a draw-off direction against the spring force and in an opposite, backwinding direction by the spring force of the torsion spring. A brake having an adjustable braking torque brakes rotation of the shaft in the draw-off direction. | 02-18-2010 |
