Cleaning device for cleaning a rotor plate of a spinning rotor, comprising a cleaning head

Abstract

A cleaning device (1) for cleaning a rotor plate (2) of a spinning rotor (3) comprises a receptacle (6), a cleaning head (4) mounted on the receptacle (6), which can be advanced toward the spinning rotor (3) for cleaning and which includes at least one cleaning element (5, 5a, 5b), and comprising a brake device (11) for decelerating and/or holding the spinning rotor (3) once the cleaning head (4) has been advanced. The cleaning head (4) comprises an at least partially cylindrical receiving area (7) for the spinning rotor (3), which defines an axial direction (AR) and a radial direction (RR) of the cleaning head (4). The brake device (11) contains multiple, in particular two, brake elements (12), which are mounted on the cleaning head (4) in such a way that they are movable from a neutral position into a braking position, and each of the multiple brake elements (12) is movable with the aid of its own drive (13).
