Abstract

A device for cleaning protective pots and, if need be, balloon limiters of two-for-one twisting spindles of a two-for-one twister, which comprises cleaning elements, preferably in the form of brush bars, which are arranged on a motor-driven, vertical shaft and preferably adjustable in radial direction, and which can be lowered into a protective pot and, if necessary, into a balloon limiter of a two-for-one twisting spindle, with a suction device for the removal of air laden with dust and dirt particles being associated to each cleaning device. This cleaning device can be a part of an automatic maintenance device.
