    Abstract: A system for automatically handling bobbins during processing of the bobbins. Various type of bobbins to be processed are stored in a supply area such as a spinning room where each type is separated into units of predetermined quantity. The units are automatically delivered by means of loading hoppers to suspended containers of a conveyor system for transport to bobbin processing apparatus. Following processing, the bobbins pass to another hopper and are returned to the containers and removed from the processing area to the supply area for additional processing such as stripping off residual yarn, sorting and refilling with yarn. A control system operates the handling system by discriminating between the conveyor containers each of which is designated for handling but one type of bobbin, and determining the condition of each container, whether it is empty or carrying bobbins and if it is carrying bobbins whether the bobbins are processed or are to be processed, and whether or not the hoppers are prepared to deliver the bobbins and the processing apparatus ready to receive a unit of bobbins.
