Abstract

In order to detect and remove interfering particles, particularly trash particles, husk naps, seed remnants and the like, from textile fiber goods, a device on a carding machine, a cleaner or the like is provided across the width of the carding machine, cleaner or the like with at least one detection device, for example, a camera with an electronic evaluation device for the detection, and a downstream-connected separating device for removing the particles. A plurality of guide elements are provided across the width, which can selectively deflect the fiber goods regions containing the interfering particles to improve the effect of the separating device in a simple manner.
