Process for operating an air-jet spinning device, yarn guide channel and air-jet spinning machine comprising such a yarn guide channel

A yarn guide channel for arrangement between a spinning device and a winding device of a spinning machine producing a take-up package in which a yarn guide channel forms a passage channel for a yarn running between the spinning device and the winding device. The yarn guide channel has a plurality of pneumatically engageable channel sections coupled to each other, having at least a first channel section, a second channel section and a channel connection section disposed between the first and second channel sections, in which the channel connection section has a mouth for supplying compressed air into the yarn guide channel for generating a pneumatic overpressure in the first channel section associated with a pneumatic suction effect in the second channel section.
