Abstract:
A device for aspirating a yarn end from a textile package, comprising:(a) a vacuum source,(b) a yarn-end receiving member for directly aspirating the yarn from the textile package,(c) a housing having an interior open area to which the vacuum source is connected, and(d) a suction line connected between the yarn-end receiving member and the housing creating an airflow from the yarn-end receiving member, through the interior open area of the housing, and toward the vacuum source,(d) wherein the housing includes a wall defining a boundary of the interior open area, and an end of the suction line extends through the wall of the housing to protrude therefrom within the interior open area such that airflow exiting from the protruding end of the suction line into the interior open area creates air turbulence in an area laterally extending about the protruding end of the suction line adjacent the wall of the housing.
