Abstract
An apparatus and method effect cleaning of a grooved applicator cylinder which applies molten size to textile strands, such as spun yarns. A plurality of holding blocks have quadrate-shaped channels formed in one end thereof, and a circular cross-section elongated elastomeric material cord (e.g., silicone rubber having a Durometer of about 50-75) is frictionally received within the channel. The position of the holding blocks with respect to a housing may be individually adjusted utilizing a cam slide having a slanted surface which engages an adjustment screw, tightening of the adjustment screw sliding the holding block toward the cylinder. The elastomeric material of the cord deforms to essentially completely fill the grooves and to wipe unused size, lint and the like from the grooves and adjacent lands, including the bottoms of the grooves, to effect cleaning. The housing is beveled to facilitate flow of removed size thereover.
