After a yarn interruption and a subsequent restoration of the yarn connection at the winding station of a textile machine, the yarn has to be transferred into its normal yarn running position on the yarn guide of the winding station. But the transfer of the yarn usually does not take place in synchronism with the movement of the yarn guide, and therefore the yarn may be deposited at one and the sa...
