Cleaning device for an auto-winder |
(57) A cleaning device for an auto-winder arranged with a cleaning air blowing hole and
a cleaning air suction hole on each winding unit of the auto-winder and where fly
waste is not dispersed out of the auto-winder due to the production of a flow of cleaning
air that circulates inside the auto-winder of each winding unit. Furthermore, cleaning
air is blown from the blowing hole towards the winding unit. Then the cleaning air
blown from the blowing hole is sucked into the suction hole and returned once again
to the blowing hole.
