    In the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, the vibration means 24 vibrates the metal blade 8 of the metal blade unit BU by the vibration supporting shaft driving system 5 of each of the blade mechanisms BM1 and BM2. According to the example shown in the drawing, one driving motor for vibration M2, a driving gear 21, an intermediate gear 22, a driven gear 23, a rotating shaft 25 of the driven gear 23, an eccentric connecting mechanism 26 provided in the free edge 25a side of the rotating shaft 25, a vibration supporting shaft 7 of which one of the tips is connected freely swinging to the eccentric connecting mechanism 26, and a metal blade 8 attached to the free edge 7a side of the vibration supporting shaft 7, are included.
    The metal blade unit BU of the composition described above comprises a casing member 28 which supports the metal blade 8 rotatable via the rotatable shaft 27, and the casing member 28 is supported fixed to the upper side member 18A of the rotating disk member 18. The bearing mechanism 29 is provided between the rotating shaft 25 and the casing member 28.
    As shown in Fig. 3, the cleaning device for the metal frame of the spinning nozzle 1 which is to be the present invention is constructed to clean separately the first cleaning area CZ1 along the first revolving locus diameter R1 by the first blade mechanism BM1, and the second cleaning area CZ2 along the second revolving locus diameter R2 by the second blade mechanism BM2.
    On the other hand, the lubricant injecting means OM includes a nozzle supporting member 31 providing a silicon oil discharging nozzle 30 in the upper end. The nozzle supporting member 31 is fixed to the rotating disk member 18, and the silicon oil discharging nozzle 30 is connected to the lubricant supplying source via the silicon oil supplying line 17.
    The lubricant injecting means OM injects silicon oil to the metal frame surface of the nozzle 3a via the silicon oil discharging nozzle 30 during the cleaning by the revolving-vibrating typed blade means BM, and for example, is formed by the silicon spray.
    The cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle provided with the revolving-vibrating typed blade means BM and the lubricant injecting means OM which are to be the composition described above, is automatically traveled and controlled along the spinning machine SM by the automatic travel control means 32 as shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, for example. In this case, the cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle 1 is constructed in a cart 34 capable of running on the rail 33 extending along the spinning machine SM.
    The cart 34 loading the cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle 1 starts the running after the control device specifies the spindle to be cleaned, and is stopped at the appointed position when reaching the position corresponding to the specified spindle by the automatic travel control means 32. After the cart 34 stopping at the position opposing to the specified spindle to be cleaned, the cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle 1 loaded on the cart 34 transfers along the arrow X direction shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, and the position is appointed directly below the metal frame of the spinning nozzle of the specified spindle by the advancing-receding drive means 35. Then, the revolving-vibrating typed blade means BM and the lubricant injecting means OM of the cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle 1 are pressed against the metal frame surface of the nozzle 3a of the metal frame of the spinning nozzle 3 by the elevating-descending drive means 36, and the cleaning operation is carried out to the metal frame surface of the nozzle 3a by injecting silicon oil to the metal frame surface of the nozzle 3a.
    As shown in Fig. 8, in the present invention, a spinning yarn suction means SM for sucking the spinning yarn during the spinning nozzle cleaning operation by the metal blade 8, is provided to be located in the downstream side of the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle. The spinning yarn suction means SM includes a shedding member 41 shedding in a relatively large area in the position facing against the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle 3a, a suction pipe member 43 connected to the shedding member and forms the spinning yarn suction path 42, and a flexible hose 44 for connecting the suction pipe member 43 to the suction source (not shown in the drawings).
    The suction pipe member 43 is made of metal since it is located near the spinning nozzle 3 which is to reach high temperature. Furthermore, the inner surface of the suction pipe member 43 is formed as a rough internal surface 45 in accordance with the object to allow the passage of the spinning yarn to be smooth. The rough internal surface 45 can be formed of a plurality of grooves in the circumference direction, or can be formed of a spiral groove.
    [Industrial Applicability]
    According to the cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle of the present invention constructed as described above, when carrying out the cleaning operation without stopping the spinning and with the spinning continued, by making the metal blade to be revolving-vibrating typed, in other words, by vibrating the metal blade in the place of rotation without rotating, the entangling of the yarn to the metal blade can be instantly prevented, thus the cleaning operation can be carried out extremely effective to this point.
    Furthermore, according to the cleaning device for the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle which is to be the present invention, by providing a lubricant injecting means for injecting lubricant to the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle in beforehand to the metal blade, on the revolving orbit of the metal blade, the cleaning of the metal frame surface of the nozzle can be carried out by the metal blade by forming oil film on the metal frame surface of the nozzle, the generating of the scratch to the metal frame surface of the spinning nozzle can be suppressed, and it works extremely effective in that a reliable cleaning can be carried out.
    Furthermore, for the object in which to improve the draining of the silicon oil of which the viscosity is extremely high, the surface of the rough internal surface 45 of the suction pipe member 43 is provided with coating processing layer 46 by the heat resisting resin such as polytetrafluoro-ethylene, so-called Teflon (trademark).
    According to the cleaning device for the metal frame of the spinning nozzle of the present invention constructed as described above, when carrying out the cleaning operation without stopping the spinning and with the spinning continued, since the spinning nozzle suction means is provided in the downstream side of the spinning nozzle, the spinning yarn discharging from the spinning nozzle by the spinning yarn suction means can be sucked and discharged, the yarn entangling to the blade can be prevented and a smooth cleaning operation can be carried out.
    Furthermore, the cleaning device for the spinning nozzle which is to be the present invention, combines the suction pipe member for the spinning yarn suction means, and since the internal surface of the suction pipe member is formed in a rough surface, the contact surface of the spinning yarn inside the pipe is made in a point contacting state, thus the passing of the spinning yarn can be carried out smoothly. Furthermore, since the surface of the rough internal surface of the suction pipe member is coated with heat resisting resin, the drainage of the silicon oil of extremely high viscosity can be improved, and it can be acted extremely effective to these points.
