ABSTRACT:
A movable-head cloth-cutter bristle block cleaner for cleaning a conveyor-type bristle bed trained between the rotatable end units of a cloth cutter. The cleaner has a movable head attached to a cable cylinder which is coupled to the frame of the cloth cutter. The head moves substantially the entire width of the bristle bed. In one embodiment, nozzles are placed in several rows on the head and are positioned so that they extend into the bristles of the bristle bed. The movable head is coupled to a supply of compressed air. When the bristle bed moves, high volume, high pressure air is delivered to the head and then shoots out of the nozzles. The jetting action of the gas leaving the nozzles effects removal of debris contained within the bed. Because the cleaning head moves across the entire width of the bristle bed, fewer nozzles are needed to clean the bristle bed. This allows the air pressure coming out of the nozzles to be delivered at a high level. Delivering high pressure jets of air permits cleaning a bristle bed that is already dirtied. Thus, there is no need for continuous operation of the cleaning head.
