Abstract

A canister-yarn tensioning assembly is adapted for controlling tension in a running yarn drawn from a yarn supply package located within an open-top canister. A cylindrical adapter configured to reside at a mouth of the open-top canister. A yarn tensioner is attached by a hinge assembly at a peripheral flange of the adapter, and is configured for multiplanar movement between an operative position within the package transfer space and a package-replacement position outside of the package transfer space. Upon depleting the yarn supply package, the yarn tensioner is pivoted in a first plane at the hinge assembly to lift away from the package transfer space and then swivelled in a second plane at the hinge assembly to locate adjacent an outside wall of the canister.
