ABSTRACT:
A travelling-wave loom relates to the machine-building branch of the textile industry. This loom comprises a cloth-forming mechanism composed of a rotary reed and a separating grate with plates, and weft thread carriers propelled through the shed of the warp threads and partially accommodated in a tunnel of the separating grate. Each carrier has a groove on the side facing the plates of the separating grate, whereas each plate of this grate has a projection engaging the groove of the carrier. The ends of the projections of the plates are positioned as close as possible to the mechanical trajectory of the crests of the teeth of the reed disks so that with the disks rotating, the teeth thereof are clear of the tops of these projections. This makes it possible to dispose the weft thread carriers, during their travel through the shed, within the zone of action of the teeth of the reed disks and the weft thread emerging from the carrier, closer to the fell of the cloth and thereby to ensure reliable engagement of this thread by the teeth of the disks and beating-up thereof to the fell of the cloth.
