To provide a drawing frame with an apron band especially having elongated useful life by evading defects of a conventional technique, and especially not giving negative effects to yarn quality by uniform traveling.
The drawing frame especially for a ring spinning frame has at least two sets of drawing frame cylinders and the apron band for guiding a fiber. A guide means (4, 41) acts so as to guide and slide the apron band (2, 21, 22, 23). Simultaneously, a combination of materials having little friction with the apron band (2, 21, 22, 23) is aimed at. In an advantageous practical embodiment, the apron band (2, 21, 22, 23) can have an additional part engaging with a notch of a shaft (3), and the apron band (2, 21, 22, 23) can be pressed to the driven shaft (3) by a pressing roll.
