Abstract
A device for gathering a running fiber web delivered by a pair of cooperating rolls (forming part of a web delivering assembly arranged downstream of a carding machine) includes at least one operationally substantially stationary guide element having a hollow guiding face. The guide element is supported downstream of and immediately adjacent to the rolls of the web delivering assembly. The hollow guiding face extends transversely to the direction of advance of the web as the latter leaves the rolls and shrouds at least one part of both rolls.
Claims21
In a carding machine including a cylinder;
- a web delivering assembly arranged downstream of the cylinder and including a pair of cooperating rolls for delivering a running fiber web;
- a device arranged downstream of the web delivering assembly for gathering the running fiber web;
- the device including at least one operationally substantially stationary guide element having a hollow guiding face, the improvement wherein said guide element is supported downstream of and immediately adjacent to said rolls;
- said hollow guiding face extending transversely to the direction of web discharge by said rolls and shrouding at least one part of both said rolls;
- and said hollow guiding face having upper and lower longitudinal bounding edges extending immediately adjacent and parallel to the one and the other of said rolls, whereby air is substantially prevented from impinging on the running web from the outside.
