Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for the treatment of continuously transported lengths of textile material comprising a housing within which is a rotatable drum filter, an extraction and cleaning nozzle extending approximately axially over the outer peripheral surface of said drum filter, and a blower and duct for establishing a circulating air stream through the textile material and the filter. Fibres extracted from the filter by the nozzle are conducted to and deposited on an air filter that also is located in the housing in a position to be readily accessible for maintenance.
