Abstract
A method for guiding warp threads with a back reed in a loom is provided, according to which the back reed is driven in reciprocative motion in a direction parallel to the dents thereof so that the points at which the running warp threads are contacted with each dent are distributed over the substantially whole length of the dents and, as a result, the accumulation of fluffy flue in the form of pills on as well as the local wear of the individual dents can be prevented, while productivity in weaving is improved and the serviceable life of the back reed may be extended. Pill-like fluffy flue eventually formed on the dents can be effectively removed by means of rollers which are provided on the back reed.
Claims5
A loom having a back reed, with dents for spacing warp threads running therethrough and which is movable in reciprocative motion in a direction parallel to the dents and vertically transverse to the running direction of the warp threads, and a rotating tension drum to impart tension to the running warp threads wherein the reciprocative motion of the back reed is effected by a linkage in connection with the tension drum.
A loom having a back reed with dents for spacing at regular intervals warp threads running therethrough, said dents being parallel with one another and extending in a direction vertically transverse with the running direction of the warp threads, a rotating tension drum receiving the warp threads from said back reed for imparting tension to the running warp threads, and means for giving a reciprocative motion to said back reed in a direction parallel to said dents such that contact of warp threads with said dents is distributed substantially over the whole lengths of said dents.
