Abstract

The present invention concerns a textile machine, particularly a stretch machine with a can agitation apparatus (7) and/or a can exchange apparatus (4) which is situated in a first chamber (3), which chamber (3) communicates with the space surrounding the textile machine (1). The drive mechanism (72 or 43) of the can agitation apparatus (7) and/or the can exchange apparatus is located in an additional chamber (8 or 5) which is separated from the first chamber (3) by an aerodynamic separative element (6 or 60). Through the separation elements (6 or 60), connection elements (71 or 42) extend from the drive mechanism (72 or 43) to the can agitation apparatus (7) and/or the can exchange apparatus (4). A cleaning element (9) is made available to the first chamber (3) which cleaning element (9) (not shown) is able to be brought into action at specified times.
