Title: Traveler brakes for ring-twining and ring-spinning machines

Abstract: A brake for the travelers of a twining ring or a spinning ring machine. Such machines have a series of rings each with an associated traveler and a common brake rod which can be operated to move braking units into the paths of the travelers. The braking units are made in ring form so that, when operated by the brake rod, they occupy substantially the whole of the paths of their associated traveler and can therefore engage the traveler and brake their motion wherever the traveler happen to be when the brake is applied.
