Abstract
A weaving loom of the present disclosure includes a base and a heddle. The base has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a heddle base and first fins extending from the heddle base. The heddle is detachably coupled with the heddle base and has an axis and a central part. The heddle further includes a plurality of shedding sections formed on the central part and around the axis. The shedding sections are arranged along the axis for the central part to have a plurality of longitudinal rows having different topographies across different longitudinal portions of the central part. The heddle is configured to move between a plurality of positions with one of the longitudinal rows facing vertically upward.
Claims20
A weaving loom comprising:
- a base including:
- a first base portion having:
- a heddle base;
- a plurality of first pins extending from the heddle base, wherein a first gap exists between the two adjacent first pins;
- a second base portion having a plurality of second pins, wherein a second gap exists between the two adjacent second pins;
- and
- a heddle detachably coupled with the heddle base, the heddle including
- a central part having an axis and including:
- a plurality of pin section formed on the central part and around the axis, wherein at least one half of the pin sections correspond to the first pins positionally;
- a plurality of shedding sections formed on the central part and around the axis, wherein each of the most shedding sections is located between the two pin sections, each of the shedding sections has a groove, the shedding sections are arranged along the axis for the central part to have a plurality of longitudinal rows having different topographies across different longitudinal portions of the central part,
- the heddle is configured to move between a plurality of positions with one of the longitudinal rows facing vertically upward.
A method for producing a fabric, said method comprising the following steps:
- providing a base including:
- a first base portion having:
- a heddle base;
- a plurality of first pins extending from the heddle base, wherein a first gap exists between the two adjacent first pins;
- and
- a second base portion having a plurality of second pins, wherein a second gap exists between the two adjacent first pins;
- detachably coupling a heddle with the base, wherein the heddle includes an axis and a central part having a plurality of shedding sections, the shedding sections are formed on the central parts and around the axis, the central part has a first row, a second row, and a third row having different sets of shedding sections distributed along different longitudinal sections of the central part;
- creating a warp by passing at least one warp thread around first pins and the second pins;
- creating a first shed between the warps by shedding a portion of the warp vertically upward with the shedding sections corresponding to the first row;
- creating a first weft by passing a weft thread through the first shed;
- creating a second shed between the warps by rotating the heddle and shedding a portion of the warp vertically upward with the shedding sections corresponding to the second row;
- and
- creating a second weft by passing the weft thread through the second shed;
- creating a third shed between the warps by shedding a portion of the warp vertically upward with the shedding sections corresponding to the third row;
- and
- creating a third weft by passing a weft thread through the third shed.
