Abstract
In the case of a spinning machine for the spinning of yarns from slivers which are fed in cans, the slivers are guided from the cans to the spinning stations by guiding devices which comprise several clamping devices arranged behind one another which transport the respective sliver. In some preferred embodiments, the clamping devices are constructed as drivable roller pairs. In other preferred embodiments, the clamping devices are clamping jaws carried on movable belts.
Claims18
A spinning machine comprising:
- a plurality of spinning stations for spinning yarn from sliver,
- and transport devices for transporting sliver to the spinning stations from sliver supply cans without drafting the sliver during the transport thereof;
- wherein the transport devices define a sliver transport path between the sliver cans and the spinning stations, which transport path includes a first section starting above the sliver cans and a second essentially vertical section,
- and wherein the transport devices, include a plurality of clamping devices arranged behind one another in the second section, each of said plurality of clamping devices in the second section being driven to carry out transport of the sliver while clamping same.
