Abstract

In an apparatus for making textile pile fabric, with a transport device (6, 7) driveable in steps for at least one tensioned carrier-fabric web (3 or 4), with at least one tufting-needle bar (10) which extends transversely relative to the web transport direction and carries a plurality of tufting needles (12) arranged at a distance from one another and which is movable transversely to the web transport plane, the tufting needles (12) which take up a respective tufting thread (13) pricking through each carrier fabric web (3 or 4) and forming a loop (15), and with a loop-holder device movable to and fro, which is arranged opposite the tufting-needle bar (10) and engages into the loops (15) and which preferably inserts a binding thread (18) into these, a high pile density and nevertheless a sturdy design and clearly understandable arrangement of the engagement members (17) of the loop-holding device can be achieved in that each tufting-needle bar (10) has at least one tufting-needle row (11) extending obliquely relative to the web transport direction and having a plurality of tufting needles (12) arranged obliquely in succession, and in that each tufting-needle row (11) of this kind is assigned a common engagement member (17), of which the stroke travelling in the longitudinal direction of the row corresponds at least to the length of the associated tufting-needle row (11). <IMAGE>
