Abstract: The invention relates to fastening means (in particular to so called clothing clips) for the fastening of clothing strips on flat rods, made of light metal or light metal alloys. Thereby the fastening means are laid-out in such a manner that, when the flat rods assume their operating temperature, these are not deformed.

Abstract: A flat end head with a mounting section for the flat rod and at least one sliding surface for progressive movement on a sliding guide of a card is made of a polymer material. The polymer material may be fiber-reinforced. Further, the polymer material may include a solid lubricant. The sliding guide may also be made of a polymer material. An apparatus for replacing a flat end head on a flat rod is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method or device for removing dust, waste and short fibres in the removal zone of a carder or carding machine, having a stripper roller or doffer, a doffing cylinder, an upper and a lower press roller, and a transverse conveyor belt. A solution according to the present invention provides at least one of the following means: means, for example a compressed air device, for generating a preset air flow in the region between the stripper roller, the doffing cylinders and the press rollers; an exhaust device for the area of the lower stripper and the lower press roller; an exhaust device for the area above the upper mote knife.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of threading in a thread into a texturing nozzle known as such, and an apparatus for implementing the method. The texturing nozzle is brought from a working position into a threading-in position for threading-in, in which position a treatment chamber provided with slots and located upstream from the outlet opening of the texturing nozzle is subject to a vacuum for sucking in a thread brought to a position in front of the inlet opening of the texturing nozzle.

Abstract: A process for introducing one or more threads into a texturizing nozzle, in which the texturizing nozzle, together with the inlet member, is first brought into a position in which the thread is led transversely past and in the immediate vicinity of the texturizing nozzle, the thread is sucked against the nozzle with the orifice of the inlet member enlarged, immediately after being sucked against the texturizing nozzle the thread is cut beyond the nozzle so that the cut end is sucked back into the nozzle, the suction supply required for the sucking-in is replaced by pressurized fluid texturizing medium, and the cross-section of the inlet orifice of the texturizing device is reduced to a value advantageous for steady state operation.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of threading in a thread (1) into a texturing nozzle (2) known as such, and an apparatus for implementing the method. The texturing nozzle is brought from a working position (A) into a threading-in position (B) for threading-in, in which position a treatment chamber (13) provided with slots (12) and located upstream from the outlet opening (14) of the texturing nozzle is subject to a vacuum for sucking in a thread brought to a position in front of the inlet opening (44) of the texturing nozzle.The apparatus for implementing the method comprises a duct (19, 32, 32a, 41, 41a), which can be tilted open, for taking up substantially sealingly against the surrounding atmosphere the treatment chamber (13) of the texturing nozzle (2) provided with slots (12), as well as for taking up a suction device (18, 40) sucking the thread (1) through the texturing nozzle (2).

Abstract: In a bobbin revolver, comprising bobbin-carrying chucks mounted on a carrier head which is rotatable to move them successively into a winding position where they receive synthetic filament, a lace-up arm is provided to hold filament in a suitable disposition during lacing up of the revolver so that the filament can be taken up automatically by a chuck moving into the winding position.
