Abstract
An apparatus for infeeding textile band material to a consumer, especially for infeeding a sliver deposited in a can to a spinning machine, comprising a transport tube extending between a feed location and a consumer. There is provided means for generating, within the transport tube, an infeed flow or current which flows in the direction of the consumer. Also, holder means are operatively correlated with an inlet opening of the transport tube in order to hold a starting portion of the sliver or other band-like material, such holder means enabling seizing of the starting portion of the sliver with the aid of the infeed flow.
