Patent ID: 7628005

Claim:
Air jet spinning machine in a spinning mill having a source of compressed air for producing spun threads from staple fiber strands, comprising: a plurality of spinning positions each equipped with an air jet aggregate for imparting a spinning twist to a fiber strand; a compressed air inlet of the spinning machine to which the air jet aggregates of the spinning positions are commonly connected, the compressed air inlet being coupled to the source of compressed air of the spinning mill; a compressed air regulator for adjusting to a set value a static pressure of the compressed air passing through the compressed air inlet upstream of the common connection with the air jet aggregates; wherein the set value is a reference pressure which is equal to or less than an unregulated static pressure prevailing at the compressed air inlet when all spinning positions are in operation, and further wherein the compressed air regulator re-adjusts to the set value in the case of a change in the static pressure.
