A method of supplying fibrous material to the feed mechanism of an opening and cleaning machine and a device for carrying out the method

摘要

The invention relates to a method of supplying fibrous material to the feed mechanism of an opening and cleaning machine. The fibrous material is supplied in a fibre layer consisting of at least one longitudinal formation unreeled from the circumference of the winding of said longitudinal formation. The invention also relates to a device for supplying fibrous material to the feed mechanism of the opening and cleaning machine. In front of the feed mechanism of the opening and cleaning machine there is situated a feeder (1) of the longitudinal formation connected with the feed mechanism of the opening and cleaning machine by means of a conveyor (2) of flat material. The feeder (1) of the longitudinal formation comprises two unreeling rollers (10) at least one of which is driven. <IMAGE>
