Abstract
A fiber opening and cleaning machine includes an opening roll provided with inclined beater elements. Such beater elements have a wave shaped design and are considerably less in diameter than the relatively larger diameter beater rods customarily used in such machines. The advantage of the wave shaped beater elements lies in the grasping and spiral conveying of the fiber flocks fed into the machine.
