Abstract

An open-end spinning device 1 with a bearing arrangement for supporting a spinning rotor 3, which is seated so it can rotate at high turning frequency and is electrically insulated in relation to the housing of the spinning device and of the bearing. The static charge being created on the spinning rotor 3 during the spinning process is diverted to a grounded component of the spinning device 1 by means of an electrical conducting mechanism. The electrical conducting mechanism 40 is arranged in the area of the axial bearing 18.
