A drawing frame for a textile machine includes at least two drawing frame modules, with module having a roller and an opposite counter-roller supported on an individual carrier, wherein the roller is movable back and forth independently of the rollers of the other drawing frame modules between a load position and a release position. For each drawing frame module, the roller bodies of the roller and of the counter-roller are out of contact in the release position and are pressed together in the load position in order to guide the fiber assembly in a clamping manner. Each carrier includes a first carrier section and a separate second carrier section, wherein the roller is supported on the first carrier section and the counter-roller is supported on the second carrier section. A guide is configured between the first carrier section and the second carrier section so that the first carrier section and the second carrier section are displaceable relative to each other.

A tensioning device for a spinning unit and/or stretching device. The tensioning device includes at least one roller, at least one belt, and at least one tension rod. The tensioning device can be transferred from a functional state into a non-functional state. The functional state is designed for positioning position the at least one roller in that the belt is designed and arranged for exerting a tension on the roller, in that the belt is further designed and arranged for running around a section of the roller and a section of the tension rod such that a tension is transferred from the tension rod onto the roller via the belt. In the non-functional state, the tensioning device is designed and configured such as to move the tension rod via tension on the belt, for removing the belt from the tension rod.

A drafting device of a textile machine includes a roller and an opposed counter roller, each including a roller body and an axis of rotation, wherein the axis of rotation of one or both of the roller and the counter roller is mounted only at one end thereof. The roller is movably mounted between a resting position in which the roller body of the roller and of the counter roller are not in contact, and a load position in which the roller body of the roller and of the counter roller are pressed against one another along a contact region. The roller is movable from the resting position into a load position by moving into an intermediate position wherein the axes of rotation of the roller and of counter roller are aligned such that the contact region between the roller and the counter roller is smaller than in the load position of the roller.

A mounting carrier (3) for an opening roller (1) of an open-end spinning device features at least one part of a screw cap (8) comprising multiple positions, by means of which the mounting carrier (3) can be detachably fastened to a base body (2) of the opening roller (1) firmly connected to a drive shaft (6). Furthermore, the mounting carrier (3) features at least one part of a securing device (7). The securing device (7) includes a cover element (15) connected to the mounting carrier (3), by means of which at least one of the positions of the screw cap (8) can be indicated, and/or by means of which the mounting carrier (3) can be secured against unintentional detachment from the base body (2). An opening roller (1) features a base body (2) firmly connected to a drive shaft (6) and a mounting carrier (3) detachably connected to the base body (2) by means of a screw cap (8), whereas the screw cap (8) features multiple positions and, by rotating the mounting carrier (3) relative to the base body (2) around a common axis of rotation (A), can be transferred from a disengaged position (I) through a connecting position (II) into a locking position (III), and back. The screw cap (8) comprises at least one securing device (7), which includes one cover element (15) connected to the mounting carrier (3), which, at least in the connecting position (II), indicates the position of the screw cap (8), and/or which, at least in the connecting position (II), secures the mounting carrier (3) against unintentional detachment from the base body (2).

An air jet spinning machine and a drafting system unit for a spinning unit produce a thread or roving from a supplied fiber strip, with a front roller pair including a front top roller on a load carrier and a driven front bottom roller on a bottom roller carrier, and a bearing element arranged on the bottom roller carrier for movably bearing an air jet spinning nozzle. A reliable pivotable air jet spinning nozzle which can be released from the bottom roller carrier is implemented by the bottom roller carrier including a bearing element having a free end, for receiving the air jet spinning nozzle, wherein the bearing element forms a pivot axis for pivoting the air jet spinning nozzle between an operating position and a second position, wherein the bearing element is connected to a portion spaced apart from the free end on the bottom roller carrier.
