Abstract
A flat can for receiving textile fiber slivers deposited therein while a jigging motion is imparted thereto comprises can sides defining an upper can bead at the top thereof. A can plate is configured to be vertically movable within the can sides between an empty position and a full position. In the empty position the can plate is at a height lower than the upper can bead. The can plate may comprise a rim around the circumference thereof which has a top generally adjacent to the upper can bead when the can plate is at the empty position. The rim may include oppositely facing incline surfaces at the ends thereof. The can sides may also include stops defined on the inner surface thereof. The stops serve to define the upper limit of travel of the can plate within the can.
