A YARN-PIECING AND CLEANING DEVICE FOR A SPINNING MACHINE

摘要

The yarn-piecing and cleaning system comprises an auxiliary carriage which is separate and distinct from the robot carriage but travels on the same track as this latter, is connected thereto by means of at least one compressed-air duct and contains a compressed-air generating set. Thus the design function of the auxiliary carriage is to supply air directly at the necessary pressure and also serves as a spinning waste reservoir while the robot carriage performs yarn-piecing and cleaning operations as a transfer and control unit.
