Abstract

The combing machine has a row of combing heads which are allocated with a drive shaft extending parallel to the longitudinal direction of the row. The combing heads are provided downstream with a drafting arrangement whose cylinders are arranged horizontally and at a right angle to the drive shaft. A funnel wheel and a can plate are rotatable about vertical axes. The transmission for driving the cylinders of the drafting arrangement, the funnel wheel and the can plate has two V-drives with a crossed toothed belt each. The first V-drive connects the drive shaft to a drafting arrangement drive shaft which is parallel to the cylinders of the drafting arrangement. The second V-drive connects a shaft which is parallel to the drafting arrangement drive shaft to a vertical drive shaft for the funnel wheel and the can plate.
