Abstract
The sliver guide is comprised of a cylindrical sleeve rotatably mounted on an inner element fixed to the guide table. The sleeve carries a radial outwardly projecting flange above the table in order to support the combed sliver such that the moving sliver rotates the sleeve so that sliding friction does not occur between the guide and the combed sliver. The inner element is adjustably mounted by an eccentrically disposed screw to permit lateral adjustments relative to the table.
