Abstract
In a weft presenting device for weaving looms with continuous weft feed, the levers controlling the presenting needles are subjected, on one side, to the constant action of return springs towards the inoperative position of said needles and, on the other side, to the cyclic action of cam-controlled control rods towards the operative position of said needles, the levers being kept in this position by electromagnets energized by the selection devices forming the pattern of the fabric being woven, up to operating said needles.
Claims3
Weft presenting device for a weaving loom with continuous weft feed, comprising a presenting needle oscillatable between an inoperative and operative position, a pivotal rocking lever, a connecting rod pivotally attaching said needle and one end of said rocking lever, a spring on said end of said rocking lever to bias said rocking lever toward an inoperative position corresponding to the inoperative position of said needle, a pivotal control lever having a hook on one end to engage the other end of said rocking lever, a first rotatable cam having a cam surface, a control rod having one end in contact with the surface of said first cam, the other end of said control rod contactible with the other end of said pivotal control lever to push said control lever into an engageable position with said rocking lever under the action of said first cam, a spring connected to said control lever to bias it in an unengageable direction and electromagnetic means to be energized to hold said control lever in an engageable position with the other end of said rocking lever.
