An improvement in a traveling pneumatic cleaner for vacuum collection of fiber waste from a textile mill room in the form of a filter disposed in a receptacle for separating fiber waste from an air current passing through the receptacle. The filter defines a surface of revolution, preferably taking the form of a substantially conical foraminous surface about a central axis of the receptacle, and so arranged relative to the receptacle that the air current will be directed around the filter and then through the same with the velocity of the air current being diminished and lowered as it passes through the filter. Optionally, the filtering may be augmented by a foam filter medium cooperating with the foraminous surface.

An apparatus for tending an elongate textile machine such as a spinning frame wherein a yarn piecing apparatus is traveled along first one side of the elongate textile machine and then the other side of the textile machine while a flow of air cleans the machine. Flows of air for blowing and vacuum cleaning pass through a housing which is traveled back and forth above and along the elongate textile machine, and through tubes depending from the housing into aisle space at one side of the machine. As the tending unit completes a traverse of one side of the machine, the housing approaches an end portion of the machine and is rotated about a substantially vertical axis while the tubes and yarn piecing apparatus pass around an end of the machine into a position in aisle space to the opposite side thereof. Continuing a movement of the housing and other components of the tend apparatus services both sides of the machine.
摘要:
A spinning frame is disclosed of the kind having two confrontingly mounted spindle rows and three movable bars for each of said rows, which are adapted, respectively, to support the slider-carrying rings, the antiballooning containers and the thread guides, the improvement consisting in that the three movable bars enumerated above, relative to one of said rows, are made mechanically independent of the three bars relative to the other row. Thus the space comprised between the two fronts of the machine becomes freely available and is permitted to house ancilliary apparatus such as cleaning devices.
