Abstract
A sliver feeding and opening device includes an outlet opening for passage of separated fibers to the rotor and an intake opening for the intaking of sliver to be separated into fibers. An intermediate opening is disposed in the chamber of the housing of the device at a location downstream of the outlet opening and upstream of the intake opening. An air stream reduction conduit extends from the intermediate opening to the outlet passage. The intermediate opening and the air stream reduction conduit conduct air from a revolving stream of air which revolves in the space between the opening roller and the cylindrical wall of the housing of the sliver feeding and opening device to prevent the revolving stream of air from detrimentally interfering with the orderly feeding of sliver at the intake opening to the opening roller.
