Abstract
A spinning apparatus having a nozzle n1 that applies a rotating air current to fibers f and a hollow spindle s1, wherein a fiber introduction member E with a fiber guide surface e8 having a torsion angle of 100.degree. or more is disposed, without a needle shaped guide member e2, near the tip s1' of the fiber introduction side of the hollow spindle. Since the torsion angle of a fiber guide surface of the fiber introduction member is 100.degree. or more, fibers can be bundled easily without the needle shaped guide member and leaves and other foreign matter contained in a sliver are prevented from accumulating between the fiber introduction member and the hollow spindle, thereby reducing the frequency of yarn breakage and improving the spinning capability.
