VANE ORIENTER WITH WIPERS

摘要

A strand orienter (10) formed by a plurality of substantially planar parallel partition walls (30) further includes a plurality of shafts extending substantially perpendicular to the partition walls (30), each mounting wipers (18) in the passages in position to wipe strands that may tend to plug the orienter (10) from the passages and off the upper edges of the partition walls (30) over substantially the full length of these upper edges and thereby prevent plugging of the orienter (10).
