Claims
- 1. A textile machine configured for delivering a fiber silver to a flat can having an elongated cross-section elongated in a longitudinal direction, said machine comprising a traversing device for imparting a traversing back-and-forth movement to said flat can in said longitudinal direction beneath a stationary rotary plate, said traversing device comprising grasping arms configured with grasping plates for grasping said flat can and imparting said traversing movement thereto, said traversing device further comprising means for alternately tilting said flat can in opposite directions around a tilting axis for each back-and-forth movement of said flat can at a predetermined angle, said flat can defining a depositing plane which is delimited by a can bead at the top of said flat can, said tilting means configured to alternately tilt said flat can such that said depositing plane is shifted laterally at each change of direction of said flat can in its back-and-forth movement in a direction essentially perpendicular to said longitudinal direction in a defined manner and held in said laterally shifted position for the length of travel of said flat can in said longitudinal direction so that fiber silver deposited in the flat can is offset laterally in alternate directions with respect to said longitudinal direction within the flat can.

- 10. The textile machine as in claim 9, wherein said eccentricity hub comprises an oblong opening defined therein for adjusting the eccentricity of said eccentrically mounted roller.
- 11. The textile machine as in claim 8, further comprising an adjusting device for adjusting and fixing said eccentrically mounted roller about an axis.
- 12. The textile machine as in claim 1, wherein said graspers and grasper plates are disposed so that said flat can hangs in said traversing device, said tilting device tilting said flat can as it hangs.
- 13. The textile machine as in claim 1, wherein said traversing device further comprises a conveyor upon which said flat can is placed.
- 14. The textile machine as in claim 13, wherein said conveyor is configured to tilt with said flat can and said tilting device is configured to tilt said flat can and said conveyor.
- 15. The textile machine as in claim 13, wherein said conveyor comprises a concave contacting surface upon which said flat can is placed so that said flat can is tiltable on said conveyor.
- 16. The textile machine as in claim 15, further comprising oppositely facing rollers disposed relative a longitudinal apex line of said concave contacting surface so as to contact a lower can bead of said flat can.
- 17. The textile machine as in claim 16, wherein said rollers comprise an inclined axis of rotation.
- 18. The textile machine as in claim 1, wherein said grasping arms with said grasping plates are swivelable about a longitudinally extending axis.
- 19. The textile machine as in claim 1, wherein said tilting axis comprises a longitudinal axis which is essentially parallel to the traversing direction of said flat can.
- 20. The textile machine as in claim 19, wherein said longitudinally extending tilting axis lies within and parallel to longitudinally extending lateral walls of said flat can.
- 21. The textile machine as in claim 20, wherein said longitudinally extending tilting axis comprises a centrally symmetrical longitudinal axis of said flat can.
- 22. The textile machine as in claim 19, wherein said longitudinally extending tilting axis lies outside longitudinally extending lateral walls of said flat can.
- 23. The textile machine as in claim 22, wherein said tilting axis lies adjacent a said longitudinally extending lateral wall of said flat can.
- 24. The textile machine as in claim 19, wherein said longitudinally extending tilting axis lies within a supporting surface of said flat can.
- 25. The textile machine as in claim 19, wherein said longitudinally extending tilting axis lies below a supporting surface of said flat can.
- 26. The textile machine as in claim 1, wherein said tilting axis is essentially non-parallel to the traversing direction of said flat can.
- 27. The textile machine as in claim 26, wherein said tilting axis is essentially a diagonal longitudinal axis in a plane essentially level with said flat can.
- 28. The textile machine as in claim 27, wherein said tilting axis lies essentially between longitudinally extending side walls of said flat can.
- 29. The textile machine as in claim 27, wherein said tilting axis lies essentially outside longitudinally extending side walls of said flat can.
- 30. The textile machine as in claim 27, wherein said tilting axis lies diagonally within a supporting surface of said flat can.
- 31. The textile machine as in claim 26, wherein said tilting axis is essentially perpendicular to the traversing direction of said flat can.
- 32. The textile machine as in claim 31, wherein said perpendicular axis lies within said flat can.
- 33. The textile machine as in claim 31, wherein said perpendicular axis lies outside said flat can.
- 34. The textile machine as in claim 1, wherein said tilting means comprises a conveyor.
- 35. The textile machine as in claim 34, wherein said conveyor is concavely cambered with angled sides, said flat can being alternately set against said angled sides by said tilting means.
- 36. The textile machine as in claim 35, further comprising a rail system configured with said angles sides, said flat can traversing on alternate rails of said rail system in its back-and-forth traversing movement.
- 37. The textile machine as in claim 36, wherein said rail system further comprises a switching device disposed at positioning where said flat can changes direction in its traversing movement, said switching devices configured to switch said flat can to said alternate rails.
