BALANCING RING FOR COMPENSATING IMBALANCES OF A SPINNING MACHINE ROTOR

The invention relates to a balancing ring (1) for compensating imbalances of a spinning machine rotor (2) with balance weight elements (4) guided by a circular guidance body (3) and a supporting element (5) for arranging the circular guidance body (3) coaxially to an axis of rotation of a spinning machine rotor (2). Additionally, the invention relates to a spinning machine rotor unit comprising at least one balancing ring as well as a method for compensation imbalances of a spinning machine rotor unit utilizing at least one balancing ring. To propose a balancing ring for compensating imbalances of a spinning machine rotor which can be easily and cost-efficiently produced and which is self-balancing without any external control, the balance weight elements (4) are movable along the full circumference of the circular guidance body (3).
