ABSTRACT:
In a shuttleless loom for weaving repeating patterned fabrics including rapier mechanisms for inserting picks of selected ones of a plurality of filling yarns, a filling yarn pattern control mechanism for selectively presenting desired filling yarns at predetermined intervals to the rapier mechanism, cutter mechanisms for cutting the selected filling yarn when received by the rapier mechanism, and selvage trimming mechanisms for trimming the loose filling yarns extending outwardly from the woven fabric; the improvement is provided of mechanisms for positioning and holding the loose cut and uncut ends of filling yarns for trimming by the selvage trimming mechanisms and for continuing to hold under tension the cut ends of those filling yarns for which a repeat pick has not yet been called for in the repeating pattern of the fabric after cutting thereof by the selvage trimming mechanisms and, thereby, eliminating the prior necessity and cost of weaving false selvages which performed such positioning and holding actions and which were cut off by the selvage trimming mechanisms as waste.
