Device for cleaning Morel cylinders of a wool card, comprising a tool carrier (1) displaceable along the Morel cylinder (2). The tool carrier (1) is mounted on a carriage (3) displaceable on a tube (4), extending parallel to the axis of the Morel cylinder (2), and comprises at one end a cleaner (5) in the form of a semi-rigid self-cleaning covering and/or rigid steel blades and at its other end a counter-weight (6). The tool carrier (1) is mounted pivotally on the carriage (3) by a shaft (7) fixed on the carriage (3), and the cleaner is flexibly urged against the Morel cylinder (2) by the counter-weight (6). The upper surface of the cleaner (5) is turned toward the Morel cylinder (2) and coacts with the spiral winding of the covering of the Morel cylinder (2) such that the rotation of this latter gives rise to an axial displacement of the tool carrier (1) and of the cleaner (5).
Device for cleaning Morel cylinders of a wool card, comprising a plurality of tool carriers, each tool carrier carrying a cleaning tool for the Morel cylinder, said tool carriers being disposed below the Morel cylinder, and means mounting the tool carrier for movement along the Morel cylinder in a direction parallel to an axis of rotation of the Morel cylinder.
Device for cleaning Morel cylinders of a wool card, comprising a tool carrier carrying a cleaning tool for the Morel cylinder, means for moving the tool carrier along the Morel cylinder in a direction parallel to an axis of rotation of the Morel cylinder, said moving means comprising a carriage displaceable on a tube extending parallel to the axis of the Morel cylinder, said carriage including motorized means for acting on the tube, and pivoting means for acting on the tool carrier in a direction of disengagement of the cleaner out of contact with the Morel cylinder, said tool carrier having a cleaner at one end and a counterweight at another end.
