Patent

CA 2342032

A re-usable yarn carrier having an annular recess containing markings for yarn identification is disclosed. The carrier comprises a tube having a pair of spaced apart ends and an outer peripheral surface located between the ends. An annular recess is formed in the outer peripheral surface adjacent one end of the tube. The annular recess defines a marking surface located radially inward from the outer peripheral surface. The marking surface includes markings, for example, colored bands, bar code or the like, for identifying at least one characteristic of the yarn wound onto the carrier. Placing the markings in the recess prevents them from being worn off through frictional contact with the drive mechanism that rotates the carrier during the winding operation, winding of the first layer of yarn onto the carrier, handling of the carrier while empty or the like. The marking surface may further include a yarn catching means, for example a knurled surface, slip-resistant coating, hooks or the like, for catching the yarn at the start of the winding operation.
