Abstract

Process for cleaning used bulk material textile containers (2) comprises passing air through the containers via an air supply (7) arranged on an inlet opening (3) and an air removal unit (9) located on the outlet opening. The air supply conveys a higher air volume than the air removal unit so that the textile containers swell. <??>Preferred Features: An Independent claim is also included for a device for carrying out the process. Preferred Features: The textile containers are located in hollow bodies and are vibrated using piston vibrators. The vibrators are connected to the containers using contact elements.
