Abstract
A cover is located over the noisiest part of the weaving machine, i.e. the shafts of the shedding mechanism and the reed and extends, at most, to the breast beam at the cloth and of the weaving machine. The cover is made of hinged members or of a flexible sheet so as to be folded out of the way when access to the shafts or reed is required.
