Abstract
A method of, and apparatus for, loading transporting trolleys with full cans and supplying full cans to spinning machines fed with fiber sliver, wherein the empty cans are placed upon transporting trolleys interconnected to form a transporting trolley train and transported from a spinning machine fed with fiber sliver to a can loading device. The cans are transported from their transporting trolley first to a can take-up station, then are engaged by a revolving can transporting device which transports each of the cans to a spinning preparatory machine delivering a fiber sliver and where each of the cans are filled with the fiber sliver. After filling the cans are transported via a can output station back onto a transporting trolley of the same train and such transporting trolley train is then brought back to the spinning machine fed with fiber sliver.
