The invention discloses air filtering equipment for textile production, which comprises a shell, an air inlet pipe, an air outlet pipe, an exhaust fan, an air filtering box and an ash discharging vehicle; wherein an annular movable section is arranged between an air purifying chamber and an ash hopper, a first corrugated pipe is arranged between an extension section and the movable section, and a second corrugated pipe is arranged between the movable section and the ash hopper; the outer wall of the extension section is connected with a first outer ring cover, the inner wall of the extension section is connected with a first inner ring cover, the outer wall of the dust hopper is connected with a second outer ring cover, and the inner wall of the dust hopper is connected with a second inner ring cover. The air filtering equipment has the beneficial effects that after the filter cartridge cleaning device works for a period of time, the dust on the surface of the filter cartridge can be removed, dust attached to the outer wall of the filter cartridge is brushed off by a brush arranged on the filter cartridge cleaning ring in a sleeving mode in the ascending process of the filter cartridge, and the cleaning capacity is higher and more thorough; therefore, a good air filtering effect can be achieved on air which is generated in textile production and contains fine silk threads, slivers, fibers, fluff and other impurities with obvious adhesive force.
