ABSTRACT:
A device for tensioning and aligning a fabric includes a support member to which a plurality of tensioning segments are connected such that each of the segments in automatically lifted when a longitudinal hem of the fabric passes thereunder. The support member is provided with a guide plate at each vertical end which guide plates face each other and project into associated slots provided at the vertical ends of the segments with a play so as to allow a limited vertical movement as well as a limited horizontal movement of the segments along the guide plates. Each of the segments has a main body which is provided with a finger-like step-shaped extension so as to define a projection facing the fabric and a space which embraces the respective edge of a nap zone with a certain clearance.
