ABSTRACT:
A transporting carriage for conveying a coiler can of curved outer circumferential surface in an upright orientation between a can stand of a sliver producing fiber processing machine and a can stand of a sliver comsuming fiber processing machine includes an apparatus for transferring the coiler can from the carriage to the can stand and from the can stand to the carriage in a linear transferring direction. The apparatus includes a gripper element having a jaw opening defined by an inner concave surface of the gripper element for engaging the coiler can along a portion of the curved outer circumferential surface; a turning mechanism for rotating the gripper element along a path generally parallel to the curvilinear length to alter an orientation of the jaw opening; and a linear shifting arrangement for linearly displacing the gripper element parallel to the linear transferring direction for placing the gripper element into a first position in which it is situated within an outline of the carriage and into a second position in which it is situated externally of the outline.
