Abstract

The present invention relates to a cleaning device for cleaning the back cloth of a printing machine and more precisely a textile printing machine, wherein said cleaning device comprises at least one rotor provided with tines for cleaning the back cloth. The tines of the rotor are traditionally made in the shape of flexible strips. During the operation, said strips abut the back cloth and sweep it on a portion of their length due to the centrifugal force.
