FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing an example of the playing state of the toy loom 1 shown in FIG.
When fabric is produced using the toy loom 1, first, the first circular material 61 is stretched over the first rod member 21 and the second rod member 22, as shown in FIG. A weaving operation is performed on the stretched first material 61 so as to alternately pass the second material 62 vertically. The weaving operation of the second material 62 is performed, for example, by using a shuttle 43 (40) passing through the second material 62 as shown in the drawing to form the upper portion (annularly stretched) of the first material 61 arranged in parallel. The second material 62 is passed through the passed upper part) so as to be alternately positioned vertically. The shuttle 43 (40) can also be used in the state shown in FIG. 5 in which a part of the second material 62 is hooked on a part of the shuttle. Alternatively, the second material 62 may be wound, and the second material 62 may be alternately passed vertically through the first material 61 while the second material 62 is unwound.

After weaving to some extent, the comb blades of the comb-like member 51 are inserted between the first materials 61, and the second material 62 is pushed toward the first bar member 21 to reduce the interlacing interval. When the weaving has progressed to some extent, for example, the protrusion 29 is operated to rotate the first rod member 21 and the second rod member 22 (rotate counterclockwise in the figure). By this rotating operation, the woven portion can be moved to the lower portion (back side) of the first material 61, and the weaving operation can proceed while securing a working area.

After weaving the second material 62 around the entire circumference of the annular first material 61 in this manner, for example, the second rod member 22 and the first rod member 21 are removed. After that, the ends of the second material 62 are appropriately processed to obtain a circular fabric. In addition, if necessary, the resulting circular woven fabric can be subjected to an appropriate treatment such as closing one end side, etc., so as to be finished into something other than a circular woven fabric.

Here, in the case shown in FIG. 5, the second rod member 22 is held in the position of the second locking groove 32, but for example, using the same first material 61, The second bar member 22 can be held at the position of the locking groove 33 of No. 3 and the same weaving operation can be performed to proceed with the work. In this case, the space between the first rod member 21 and the second rod member 22 is larger than in the case shown in FIG. 5, and more of the second material 62 is used. Moreover, since the first material 61 is stretched to a greater extent, the finished fabric can be a fabric in which the first material 61 has shrunk.

In addition, when the second rod member 22 is held at the position of the third locking groove 33, the communicating groove 35 is used to remove the second rod member 22 from the attachment/detachment opening 32a. As a result, the first material 61 can be removed in the same state as shown in FIG.

6A is a cross-sectional view showing a modification of the bar member 20, and FIG. 6B is a cross-sectional view showing another modification of the bar member 20. FIG.
Unlike the bar member 20 shown in FIG. 3, the bar member 20 shown in FIG. 6A has a configuration in which the first groove portions 25a and the second groove portions 25b are alternately formed in the axial direction.
In the case of this configuration, similarly to the case shown in FIG. It is possible to produce textiles using at the same time.

In the rod member 20 shown in FIG. 6(b), the material holding groove 25 is a groove having two groove widths due to the stepped structure in the same manner as the material holding groove 25 shown in FIG. , and grooves corresponding to the narrow first material 61b are alternately arranged in the axial direction.
In this case, the arrangement pitch P1 of the grooves of the narrow first material 61b is configured to be smaller than the arrangement pitch P2 of the grooves of the wide first material 61a. Therefore, it is possible to manufacture a woven fabric in which the arrangement form of the first material 61 is further diversified.

FIG. 7(a) is a side view of the inner structure of the rod holding frame showing a modification of the structure for holding the rod members 20 (21, 22) in the loom main body 10, and FIG. FIG. 11 is a side view of the inner structure of the rod holding frame 11 showing another modification of the structure;
