Abstract

A spinning device for producing a yarn by a circulating air flow, comprising a hollow spinning cone arranged in a spinning housing and rotatably mounted about a central longitudinal axis and a nozzle block which can be loaded with compressed air to generate the circulating air flow. The spinning cone ( 19 ) is mounted via a bearing arrangement ( 30 ) in the rear housing part ( 15 ) such that the installation angle position of the spinning cone ( 19 ) can be adjusted selectively inside the air spinning device ( 5 ).

Claims (8)

1. A spinning device for producing a yarn by a circulating air flow, comprising a hollow spinning cone arranged in a spinning housing mounted about a central longitudinal axis, and a nozzle block which can be loaded with compressed air to generate the circulating air flow, wherein the spinning cone is mounted via a bearing arrangement ( 30 ) in a rear housing part ( 15 ) of the air spinning device ( 5 ) for selective adjusting of the angular position of the spinning cone ( 19 ) about the axis between angularly-spaced stationary spinning positions at each of which the spinning cone remains in a stationary non-rotating disposition during yarn spinning operation.

2. A spinning device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the bearing ( 30 ) arrangement has a clearance fit for rotatable mounting of the spinning cone ( 19 ) in the rear housing part ( 15 ) of the air spinning device and in that, during the spinning process, the spinning cone ( 19 ) can be fixed by at least one permanent magnet ( 33 ) in its installation angle position.

3. A spinning device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the installation position of the spinning cone ( 19 ) can be manually adjusted.

4. A spinning device according to claim 1 , characterized in that a marking ( 34 ) is arranged on the spinning cone ( 19 ), which indicates the respective installation position of the spinning cone ( 19 ).

5. A spinning device according to claim 4 , characterized in that the marking ( 32 ) is arranged on an adjusting ring ( 32 ), which is connected in a rotationally engaged manner to the spinning cone ( 19 ).

6. A spinning device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the spinning cone ( 19 ) has a mechanism ( 37 ) which allows adjustment of the installation angle position of the spinning cone ( 19 ) by an automatic operating unit ( 10 ).

7. A spinning device according to claim 6 , characterized in that the mechanism ( 37 ) comprises outer teeth on the spinning cone ( 19 ).

8. A spinning device according to claim 6 , characterized in that the operating unit is configured as an operating traveller ( 10 ), which can be moved along the workstations ( 2 ) of the textile machine ( 1 ).
