Drawing frame

摘要

Each drawing frame of a double drawing frame is provided with a diverting surface so that the transport direction of the infeed slivers removed from the cans to be emptied is arranged substantially at a right angle to the feed direction of these slivers on the sliver infeed of the drawing assembly. The first drawing passage is so close to and parallel to a second drawing passage that the emptied sliver cans are transported on the shortest path into the readiness position of the empty cans of the adjacent drawing passage. The cans filled by the drawing frames can be brought along the shortest path into a reserve row which is located immediately in front and parallel to the row with the cans to be emptied in the next drawing passage.
