The invention discloses a special infrared reflection type yarn guide device for yarn breakage monitoring. The special infrared reflection type yarn guide device is characterized in that the upper lateral side, the lower lateral side and the periphery of a spinning frame yarn guide plate are provided with an infrared reflection type monitoring device respectively; the continuity of yarn production in the process of spun yarn spinning is sensed by every monitoring device, the intensity of a reflected light analog signal is converted into a digital signal, and the analysis is performed on the output digital signal so as to determine whether spun yarns of a ring spinning frame are broke yarns or not; the judgment on the yarn breakage of the spinning frame is based on whether the digital signal is produced or not within a certain period of time, the spun yarns are not broken if yes, and the spun yarns are broken otherwise. The special infrared reflection type yarn guide device for the yarn breakage monitoring is simple in structure, free of special requirement for raw materials and the yarn variety and applicable to the yarn breakage monitoring of the ring spinning of cotton spinning, wool spinning and color spinning and the like.
