ABSTRACT:
An apparatus mounted on a weaving loom for moving a weft thread carrying mechanism from one end of a loom lay to the other through the shed of the warp threads. The apparatus includes a linkage having a drive mechanism which is rotated continuously and which maintains the weft thread carrying mechanism in a fixed position for an extended dwell period and then propels the weft thread carrying mechanism across the lay after the lay has beat up a prior weft thread and has been retracted to an inoperative position. The apparatus provides a substantial reduction in the noise level and power requirement over conventional looms and permits the speed of operation to be increased to improve production.
