Abstract
An apparatus for inserting weft wires in flat weaving power looms wherein a shuttle is moved by carriages which are disposed above and below the shed defined by the warp wires and which are guided by magnetic means and wherein the shuttle is a gripper shuttle, the shuttle and the carriages include permanent magnets, and the drive means for the carriages is one of a stepping motor, a speed-controlled three-phase current motor and a disk rotor motor which effects positioning of the carriages and thus of the gripper shuttle at the weft transfer points by a holding force.
Claims18
An apparatus for inserting weft wires in flat weaving power looms comprising:
- a gripper shuttle adapted to pass through the shed defined by warp wires;
- carriages adapted to be guided above and below said shed for dragging said gripper shuttle by permanent magnets disposed in said shuttle and in said carriages, respectively;
- and a stepping motor and means connecting said stepping motor to said carriages for reciprocally driving said carriages, the holding force of said stepping motor positioning said carriages and thereby said gripper shuttle during weft transfer;
- and said gripper shuttle and said carriages being of lightweight construction.
