Abstract
In a combing machine, in particular for combing of cotton, having a combing roller with at least one combing segment, conveying devices for the fiber tuft to be combed, and an upper and lower nipper for fixing the fiber tuft during the engagement of the combing segment, where the upper and/or lower nippers are seated pivotable in a forward and backward direction on an axis located above the comb cylinder, it has been provided, in order to attain a high operating speed while reducing the transfer paths and the mass to be moved, to derive the drive for the pivot movement of the upper and/or lower nippers directly from the drive for the combing roller by means of a cam drive.
