ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for removing underwound yarn wraps from the spindle of a spinning frame, including a carrier member mounted for driven movement along the spinning frame, and a pair of rotating brushes which are independently driven and independently arranged for movement toward and away from the spindles. A non-rotatable brush may also be associated with the carrier member, behind the rotatable brushes, to remove any wraps not removed by the rotatable brushes. A suction source is provided for collecting removed yarn wraps. The carrier member includes floor engaging wheels, and means for engaging rails extending along the spinning frame, and the carrier member permits vertical adjustment of the rail engaging means to facilitate mounting the carrier member on the rails. The apparatus is designed so as not to interfere with the movement of the traverse ring of the spinning frame, or with the fixed structure of the spinning frame during operation of the apparatus or during mounting of the apparatus on the rails. A cut-off switch is provided to engage the end of the spinning frame at the completion of the movement of the apparatus therealong and to stop further movement of the apparatus.
