ABSTRACT:
In a weft straightener having a machine frame (10); a pair of wheels (18) for holding each selvedge of a cloth (1) on the outer periphery (19) of each wheel (18); wheel supporting means (11 to 14, 16, 20) for keeping each wheel (18) rotatably, inclinably and widthwise-movably on each side of the machine frame (10); wheel inclination adjusting means (15, 31 to 36) for adjusting each wheel (18) to a desired inclination angle; and wheel position adjusting means (51 to 55) for adjusting each wheel (18) to a desired position in the widthwise direction; whereby the difference of rotation speed of both wheels (18) is made while the cloth (1) is travelling with its each selvedge held on the outer periphery (19) of each wheel (18) so that the skewed or bowed weft of the cloth (1) may be straightened, the improvement comprises a drum means (66, 67) mounted inclinably and projectingly on the inside of each wheel (18); drum supporting means (61, 65) for keeping each drum means (66, 67) rotatably and substantially in the widthwise direction on each side of the machine frame (10); and drum rotating means (63) for enabling each drum means (66, 67) to rotate interlocking with each wheel (18).
