Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 143 words
A device for high speed manipulation of yarn, comprising a movable yarn-clamping jaw that is movably mounted for movement between an inoperative position and an operative position, wherein the improvement comprises an electric coil mounted adjacent to the inoperative position of said jaw, and a body of conducting, nonmagnetic material mounted on said jaw which approaches most closely to said coil when said jaw is in its inoperative positive, and in which eddy currents are induced by a pulse of current passed through said coil, to repel said jaw away from said coil toward its operative position, said yarn-clamping jaw also carrying an armature of magnetic material, and an electromagnet coil being mounted in a position which is most closely approached by said armature when said jaw is in its operative position, and which when energized maintains said jaw in its operative position.
