Abstract
A fiber-bale mill comprises a cutting device which is movable over a row of fiber bales. A collector passage is open on top below the cutting device which travels to and fro. An air passage in a cutting device through which the cut fibers are drawn from the vicinity of the cutting mechanism communicates with the passage. A cover strip at least partially covers the top of the collector passage to maintain a reduced pressure therein. Guide rollers for the cover strip are provided on the cutting device, to lift the cover strip from the collector passage at the location, at which the air passage opens into the collector passage and guide the cover strip over the portion of the air passage opening into the collector passage.
