Abstract
A heald control system for a multi-phase or travelling wave shedding loom in which each heald is upperly connected elastically, by way of an elastic traction element, to a single support plate which is removably locked to the fixed part of the loom, and the healds of each section are lowerly locked to a single connection block which is connected by a spring catch connector to a flexible element, which is itself connected to the end of a cam-controlled operating lever.
Claims5
A heald control system for a multi-phase loom having at least two corresponding sets of healds which are moved vertically in mutual opposition, the healds of the two sets being divided into corresponding side-by-side successive sections which are each moved, mutually offset by a predetermined angle, by a cam-controlled operating lever, said heald control system comprises;
- a single support plate;
- a plurality of elastic traction elements connected between the upper portions of said healds and said support plate;
- a single connection block for each set of healds, the lower portions of said healds in a set being locked to each of said connection blocks;
- and a plurality of flexible elements for connecting each of said connection blocks to the end of a cam-controlled operating lever.
