The present invention relates to an all-steel card clothing for rollers and/or cylinders of carding machines. Carding machines comprise rollers which are configured to actively take over raw fiber materials from rollers arranged upstream in work direction. Therefore, such card clothings have a relatively large front angle. The problem is that the stability of the card clothings suffers. According to the invention, the teeth have a head angle of &#x3e;85&#xb0; in order to solve this problem. The length of the head surface extending at said angle from the tooth tip to the tooth back corresponds to at least &#xbc; of the length of the tooth pitch. This achieves a considerably more stable card clothing while maintaining the high carding quality.

All-steel card clothing for rollers and/or drums of carders of carding machines

The present invention relates to a device, such as a carding machine, for processing fibers, said device comprising a cylinder, which is provided with a lining, and at least two carding segments which are arranged one after the other in the direction of rotation at least over an area of the circumference of said cylinder, each of said carding segments being provided with a toothed lining. The present invention aims at improving the efficiency of such a device especially in terms of fiber parallelization. In order to achieve this, the toothed linings of the carding segments are designed differently; when the fibers are engaged by the toothed lining of the carding segment constituting the upstream carding segment in the direction of rotation, the resultant influence on an individual fiber entrained by the circumference of the cylinder will be equal to or more intensive than the influence exerted when the fibers are engaged by the toothed lining of a carding segment constituting a downstream carding segment in the direction of rotation.

Device such as a carding machine for processing fibres

A hopper feeder for blending and feeding textile fibers is disclosed which includes a chute (3) having a bottom conveyor belt (5) and an upwardly inclined spiked lattice (6) for reducing and opening the fibers, and inclined surface (4) is disposed in the chute and extends at least half the length of bottom conveyor belt (5), and receives textile fiber from an overhead reciprocating feeder. A freely rotatable roller (11) maintains a column of fibers in working relation with spiked lattice (6). A door (15) is provided below inclined surface (4) through which textile fiber may be fed directly.

Hopper feeder for producing a mixture of fiber, material, in particular

Apparatus for cleaning textile fibers such as cotton, etc. is disclosed wherein the fibers are conveyed by an air current to an opening roller cooperating with a grate, and the transport air is separated at a feed box. The separated air (17) serves for discharging contaminants accumulating in a space (9, 11) beneath the cleaning grate (8). The opening roller (7) may be provided with a toothed wire (20) whose teeth have a relatively acute top rake (22).

Apparatus for cleaning textile fiber material

A textile fiber preparation feed system and method are disclosed in which processed textile fibers from a blender (A) are delivered to a flow-through textile cleaner (B) and then directed to a vertical chute feed (C). An air stream conveys the fibers from blender (A) to chute feed (C) across cleaning rollers (34, 36) of cleaner (B) without a nip feed providing increased cleaning efficiency. Control system (60) continues operation of top feed roll (52) after termination of carding machine (14) and discharge of fiber batt (12) from the chute feed to purge excess fibers in the air stream. In this manner, accumulation of the excess fibers in a fiber column (F) above top feed roll is prevented which would block air exit (50) and choke down top feed roll (52) upon resumption of the carding machine or fiber batt discharge.

Flow-through fiber preparation feed system and method

An apparatus for cleaning and opening fiber materials is disclosed having an intake roller (3) and an opening roller (5) wherein there is arranged between the intake roller and the opening roller (5) at least one intermediate roller (4) having a relatively small diameter and rotating at a high speed.
