  • the effective weight I becomes very small and, as a result, the dynamic frictional force F becomes so small that the sliver 8 cannot be pulled from the can 3.
  • the quantity of the reserved sliver 8 in a zig-zag or spiral form is decreased because of the continuous delivery of sliver 8 from thebottom aperture 5d of the conduit 5, and the effective weight I, is thereby increased so that the dynamic frictional force F is also elevated.
  • the sliver 8 When force F overcomes the effective weight of the free sliver, the sliver 8 is again introduced into the conduit 5 by the positive turning motion of the take up roller 7. As illustrated hereinbefore, the sliver supply motion is carried out intermittently. Therefore, the possible irregular draft of sliver due to excess weight of the sliver can be desirably prevented.
