ABSTRACT:
A filling thread feeding device (2) comprises a thread guide (4) for placing at least one filling thread (S.sub.1) into the entrainment region of a gripper (6) which can be extended into and retracted out of a shed (8). A pair of scissors (22) open against a weaving reed (14) is incorporated at the insertion side externally of the fabric edge (20) in the region of a looping edge (16). The scissors serve for cutting off a previously inserted filling thread (S.sub.1, S.sub.2, S.sub.3, S.sub.4) during renewed insertion into the shed (8). The scissors (22) are designed and arranged in order to improve the operational security and achieve a simpler construction of the gripper loom. The scissors are, on the one hand, closed during the looping motion of the weaving reed and, on the other hand, an inserted filling thread (S.sub.1) can be conducted above and past the upper scissor blade (24) into a catching hook (32) lying in front (FIG. 2 ).
