  • Single-sided ring spinning frame with sliver accommodating cans, and method for supplying slivers to such frame
    Publication number: 20010022072
    Abstract: A single-sided ring spinning frame having spinning positions including draft parts and winding parts on a front side of the machine frame, and rows of cans arranged on a rear side of the machine frame. Each can has a plurality of sliver accommodating areas to accommodate a plurality of rows of sliver coils therein. Sliver guides are arranged above the cans. Therefore, the number of the cans is less than the number of spinning positions, and the height of the cans is selected so that an operator can easily handle the sliver in the can. Also, a method for supplying slivers to a single-sided ring spinning frame, and a sliver transfer device used in the method are also disclosed.
