ABSTRACT:
An improved method and apparatus for plucking fiber tufts from a fiber bale held by a supporting frame which is reciprocally displaced along a carrying passage over a plucking roller. A pair of conveyer means are disposed with an intervened space therebetween and the plucking roller is disposed in the abovementioned intervened space. An auxiliary conveyer means is disposed at a position adjacently outside one of the conveyer means. These three conveyer means are arranged in an alignment. The supporting frame is capable of being reciprocally displaced by the conveyer means between displacing terminals on said conveyer means and is capable of being displaced to a waiting position on one of the conveyer means which is outside of the displacing terminal on that conveyer means and at a side of the auxiliary conveyer means.
A door means of the supporting frame is opened during the displacing motion of the supporting frame to the waiting position, and then a fresh fiber bale reserved on the auxiliary conveyer means is supplied into the supporting frame, thereafter the supporting frame is displaced to the normal operational position thereof. A loading plate is mounted on the supporting frame so as to uniformly press the fiber bale during the bale plucking operation. All of the above-mentioned operations are carried out automatically.
