Open-end spinning process and device for its implementation

In an open-end spinning device with two friction rollers driven in the same direction, located next to each other and forming a spinning nip, at least one of such friction rollers has a perforated casing which is over-mounted at one end. Such roller further contains a suction insert with a suction orifice connected to a negative pressure (i.e. vacuum) source. The perforated casing is supported on a shaft, one end of which is received and supported in a portion of the suction insert. The suction insert is located within the casing, directly behind it, and has a constant cross-section up to its connection with a suction line. In such manner, a maximum suction cross-section is provided with minimum support requirements.

Open-end spinning device

A mechanism for eliminating impurities from fibrous material, in particular cotton, having at least two card-clothed rolls (22, 23) arranged after a feed mechanism and a screening drum (3) to which said fibrous material is fed by means of an airstream. A housing closely encloses the two card-clothed rolls. Interposed in the housing are separating openings including separating edges. One of said two card-clothing rolls (23) cooperating with the other of the two card-clothed rolls has a take-off and loosener roll for the fibrous material and the centrifugal forces at the circumference of the second card-clothed roll (23) being greater than at the first card-clothed roll (22). A third card-clothed roll is positioned in carding relation with the first card-clothed roll. Another take-off and loosener roll (52) is positioned for removing fibers from the third card-clothed roll (5). A pair of fiber feed channels (24, 53) extend from the take-off rolls (23, 52) for conveying the fibers therefrom to the screening drum (3). The widths of the mouth of the channels (24, 53) are one-half of the width of the screen drum (3) so that each of the fiber conveying channels (24, 53) feed fiber material to one-half of the screening drum (3).

Mechanism for eliminating impurities from fibrous material, in

A method and apparatus for individually piecing up yarn on an open-end spinning machine which has a spinning rotor and a rotor brake. A rotor cleaning apparatus is carried on a pivotal cover and is used for cleaning the rotor responsive to being activated. A pivotal lever which when moved relative to the cover simultaneously activates the rotor cleaning apparatus and the rotor brake causing the rotor to be cleaned as the rotor is being stopped. The yarn is pieced up when the rotor is being brought back up to running speed.

Process and apparatus for individual piecing up of single open end

An apparatus for removing impurities from fibrous material such as cotton comprising a first and second clothed driven roller with said second clothed driven roller being in fiber transfer relation with said first clothed roller. A rotating cylindrical cage is provided for receiving said fibrous material from said second clothed roller by means of an air stream flowing through a passage which tapers towards said cylindrical cage. A suction is applied to the interior of the cylindrical cage for drawing air through the periphery of the cage for removing impurities from the fibrous material passing therethrough. Passages are associated with said first and second clothed rollers and have separating edges provided therein for aiding in removing impurities from said fibrous material as it passes over said rollers. In one embodiment, a plurality of calendar rollers and stripping and conveying rollers are distributed in sequence about the periphery of the cylindrical cage for increasing the cleaning action as the fibrous material is transported on the cylindrical cage.
