Abstract
The invention relates to a device to condense and guide a fiber sliver, in particular in a spinning plant preparation machine having a sliver funnel. The funnel is followed by draw-off rollers which are surrounded on both sides by guide surfaces. The lateral distances between the guide surfaces and the draw-off rollers can be adjusted independently of each other. A process is also provided according to which the distance between the guide surfaces is selected to be greater for puffed fiber material than for non-puffed fiber material. Furthermore, the distance between the guide surfaces is selected to be greater with synthetic fiber material than with natural fibers.
Claims10
A fiber sliver compression and guiding device for use with a textile plant sliver preparation machine, the sliver preparation machine having a sliver funnel and draw-off rollers downstream of the funnel, said device comprising guide surfaces on both sides of the draw-off rollers and disposed at predetermined lateral distances from the respective surfaces of said draw-off rollers;
- and means for independently varying the lateral distances between each guide surface and the draw off rollers.
A device for compressing and guiding fiber sliver comprising:
- a sliver funnel;
- draw-off rollers operatively disposed downstream from said sliver funnel;
- guiding brackets on each side of said draw-off rollers generally covering the nip of said draw-off rollers;
- at least one adjusting washer between at least one of said guiding bracket and said sliver funnel for varying the lateral distance between said guiding brackets and said draw-off rollers;
- and
- a bolt member disposed at a right angle to the running direction of the sliver fiber, said bolt member securing said guiding brackets, said adjusting washers, and said sliver funnel relative each other.
A process for compressing and guiding fiber sliver said process comprising the steps of drawing the fiber through a sliver funnel by draw-off rollers covered by guiding surfaces, and independently varying the lateral distance between each guiding surface and the draw-off rollers.
A fiber sliver compression and guiding device for use with a textile plant sliver preparation machine, the sliver preparation machine having a sliver funnel and draw-off rollers downstream of the funnel, said device comprising guide surfaces on both sides of the draw-off rollers and disposed at predetermined lateral distances from the perspective surfaces of the draw-off rollers;
- and means for independently varying the lateral distance between each guide surface and the draw-off rollers, said guide surfaces comprising guide brackets mounted on a holder for the sliver funnel and secured against rotation relative thereto, said varying means comprising at least one adjusting washer disposed between at least one said guide bracket and said sliver funnel.
