Abstract
A pneumatic cleaning device (10) for the spinning stations of an open-end spinning machine (1) is disposed on the sliver draw-in arm (22) of a traveling service unit (16) for unitary movement with the draw-in arm between a resting position (I) and an operating position (II). In the operating position (II), two suction nozzles of the cleaning device are positioned in the area of the sliver opening device of a spinning station at which the service unit is positioned. One suction nozzle is pivotable by an electric motor drive acting through a lever linkage arrangement to cover the area below the dirt outlet opening of the sliver opening device.
