Abstract
Filamentary tow is puddled into a container from an air jet through an air dissipator apparatus, which slows the air-propelled tow by the tow impinging upon the dog-legged surfaces along the flow path within the apparatus and ricocheting therefrom while the propelling air is dissipated from the tow as the tow moves along the flow path and out of the apparatus for subsequent disposition into a container or the like that may be positioned below the air jet and the air dissipator apparatus connected to the end of the air jet.
