Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0113819A2] Fibre tufts are introduced with a first airstream into a collecting shaft (12) and removed therefrom at an exit point (27). On the one hand, the discharged fibre material (16) is formed into tufts of a suitable shape. On the other hand, the air of the first airstream is passed through a bypass (21) and used for forming a second airstream which is used for the continued transportation of the tufts formed. This results in a saving of energy for moving the airstreams. In particular, the amount of transportation air flowing outward is significantly reduced and consequently relatively high costs for cleaning such air are also appreciably reduced. <IMAGE>
