Weaving loom with tiltable reed and weaving method

A Jacquard type loom intended to produce a fibrous structure by three-dimensional weaving between a plurality of warp yarns and a plurality of weft yarns extending in a horizontal direction, the loom comprising a plurality of control yarns able to move the warp yarns in a vertical direction, at least one rapier present downstream of the control yarns able to pull a weft yarn and a reed movable between a rest position upstream of the rapier and a beat-up position of a fell of the fibrous structure in a beat-up direction parallel to the horizontal direction,

• wherein the reed comprises at least two stationary portions forming an angle therebetween and in that the reed is mounted on the loom by means of a positioning mechanism able to at least orient the reed about an axis of rotation so as to adjust an angular position of said at least two stationary portions of the reed relative to a horizontal reference plane, the loom further comprising vertical translation means able to move the reed or the fell of the fibrous structure in the vertical direction so as to move said reed or said fell upwards or downwards relative to the horizontal reference plane.
