A work station of a textile machine includes a plurality of fiber-guiding work elements that are divided into at least two groups. A first work station part is defined at the work station on which a first group of the fiber-guiding work elements is arranged. A second work station part is defined at the work station on which a second group of the fiber-guiding work elements is arranged. The second work station part is arranged in a movable manner relative to the first work station part at the work station or is arranged in a removable manner at the work station. A pneumatic thread storage element is also provided for a work station of a textile machine for the temporary receiving of a thread, and includes a multi-part structure with a first thread storage section and a second thread storage section connected to one another at a separation point.

A spinning apparatus with continuous adjustment of a yarn accumulation system includes at least one spinning head including a spinning device including a spinning chamber for yarn production, a reel on which yarn produced by the spinning device is wound, the reel being rotatably influenced by a yarn guide shaped to impart a rotation movement of the reel for winding the yarn and a traversing movement of the yarn winding on the reel, an accumulation device arranged between the spinning device and the reel and shaped to create a reservoir of yarn not wound on the reel, a joining device including joining means to join together a first yarn end associated with the spinning device and a second yarn end associated with the reel, and a processing and control unit programmed to control the yarn guide to adjust accordingly the amount of yarn accumulated in the accumulation device.

A method of producing at least one yarn formed by spinning at least two individual fibers, comprising the following steps: providing at least two individual fibers, to be spun to form the at least one yarn to be produced, feeding the at least two provided fibers to a spinning device comprising at least one spindle element or bobbin element via a guide device comprising a plurality of, in particular cylinder-like or cylindrical, guide elements, spinning the fed fibers in the spinning device, forming the at least one yarn to be produced, wherein the at least two fibers are fed to the spinning device via at least two separate, in particular cylinder-like or cylindrical, guide elements that are arranged such that they are spatially separated from one another in at least one spatial direction.

A spinning element of an air-jet spinning nozzle for an air-jet spinning machine for producing a yarn from a sliver using an airflow. The spinning element of the air-jet spinning nozzle for the air-jet spinning machine and a corresponding air-jet spinning nozzle allows a particularly inexpensive, low-maintenance, and simple operation of an air-jet spinning machine without compromising the quality and strength of the air-jet spun yarn and without requiring frequent cleaning. This is achieved in that the spinning element has at least one fibre- and/or thread-guiding surface, an anti-adhesive coating being located on at least some sections of the fibre- and/or thread-guiding surface.

A textile machine includes a protective exterior cover, a slotted yarn access formed in the protective cover, and a safety guard shielding at least a portion of the slotted yarn access. The safety guard includes a guard body mounted to the protective cover proximate the slotted yarn access. The guard body has a fastener edge residing adjacent a first side of the slotted yarn access, and a free edge residing adjacent a second side of the slotted yarn access. The free edge of the guard body extends above and across the slotted yarn access and forms an unobstructed space on the second side of the slotted yarn access allowing yarn to pass around the free edge, underneath the safety guard and through the protective cover.
