Abstract
In an apparatus on a spinning preparation machine, at least one machine element lies opposite and spaced apart from the clothing of a roller, and bearing surfaces of the end portions of the machine element are in engagement with respective bearing surfaces of stationary bearings. An adjustment means is arranged in the region of each of the end portions for altering the radial spacing between the clothing of the roller and the machine element. To enable the carding nip to be adapted or kept constant in the event of thermally induced changes in dimensions, the machine element and the bearings each have inclined bearing surfaces, and the machine element, in the event of undergoing thermally induced expansion in its longitudinal direction, is so displaceable along the sloping surfaces that the radial spacing remains the same.
