DE3262255D1 - Travelling cleaning arrangement for drawing frames of spinning and twisting machines - Google Patents

Abstract

EP--59473 A Jet slits range above and below the drawing section of the spinning or twisting machine, on the mobile unit, to create a horizontal air curtain. A blowing jet delivers a flat air stream approximately at right angles to the horizontal air curtain from the jet slits at about their centre. A row of suction jets lies on each side of the flat air stream. The layout of the mobile cleaning assembly ensures that dust, debris, and other fibre matter is removed directly in a concentrated action by the mobile cleaning unit. - The blowing jet to generate the flat air stream is mounted in an adjustable ball head. The slit jets for the air curtain range from a blowing tube suspended from the cleaning unit travelling over the machine, which also supports a shorter blowing tube for the blowing jet.

(13pp) - EP--59473 B Mobile cleaning device for drawing frames in spinning and twisting machines, in particular preparatory spinning and ring frames, wherein in the working region of the drawing frame blowing nozzles and at least one suction opening for the fibre fly are provided, characterised in that above and below the working region of the drawing frame slot nozzles are disposed which in each case produce a horizontal air curtain, that a blowing nozzle produces a flat air stream which extends substantially perpendicularly to the horizontal air curtains of the slot nozzles and substantially into the centre therebetween, and that on either side of the flat air stream of the blowing nozzle a row of suction mouthpieces is provided. (7pp) USAB- US4484434 A Travelling cleaner for collecting accummulations of fly fibres from working zones of drafting appts. of spinning and twisting frames, comprises first air jets above and below the working zones and operating to generate respective horizontal air curtains. - A second jet generates between the air curtains a flat air stream at right angles to them, the flat air stream passing between two vertical rows of suction mouthpieces. Pref. the jets are fed by a blow tube on the travelling cleaner the latter operating above the frame.
