The foregoing will more.I easily beg-.understood drawings.- It willbe seenfroman examinationof this figure that, fort example, ,the eliminationof -t-,h'ev` portionof-.the thread gp. comprised between the..4 pile vwires -12-2 and- 'un canipresent Certainfdifiicultiesoni-account of the -vrfactathatfthe thread g1 whichhas Yleft the design, passesV beneath the weft-.d4 at the same time-.as theJthr-ead g2 which ofi-the threadtgz can occur beneath the" weft".y d4

The same objectionable effects may occur beneath the wefts ds, dio, die etc. (which follow respectively the passage of the pile wires 114, v5, Us etc. corresponding to the simultaneous lifting of two warp pile threads). On the contrary, the diiiiculty of eliminating the inactive pile thread and the formation of a bubble cannot occur beneath the wefts d2, de, du, d20 etc.
The object of the method of Weaving shown in Figures 7 and 8 is to remove the above described objections and, with this object in view, it relates to a mode of operation which is characterized by the feature that the warp pile thread which has terminated its design is separated from that which has just commenced the design, after the passage of each of the pile wires corresponding to the simultaneous lifting of two warp pile threads.
From an examination of Figures 7 and 8 it will be seen that, according to this mode of working, after the passage of the pile wires v2, v4, 'U7 etc. which correspond to the simultaneous lifting of two pile warps (g1 and g2), (g2 and g3), (g3 and g4) etc., the warps which have completed their design are separated from those which have just commenced the design. This separation is effected after the passage of the pile wire v2, for example,
, by making the warps g1 pass over the weft d4 while the warps g2 pass below.
In this way therefore the two kinds of warps, those which have completed their design and those which have just commenced their design, are enf tirely prevented from crossing beneaththe wefts d4, d8, e114 etc. Consequently, any difficulty in eliminating the inactive portionsof the pile warps is avoided and at the same time any bubbling of the pile warp loops on the back face is avoided on account of the fact that the back points are always formed by a single thread.
It will also be clearly seen that there is no disadvantage in making the warps which are about to commence their design pass beneath the wefts d2, de, du etc. together with those which are about to complete their design. l
This new mode of working, while permitting the harness board or the bottom board to be dispensed with, necessitates the presence of a backing card for lifting the warps which have completed their design above the wefts d4, da, du etc. after the passage of the pile wires 112, v4, v7 etc.
It goes without saying that the various modes of binding or weaving the stufng or wadding threads do not vary in any way the principle of the invention.
Finally it is also clearly understood that, Without going outside the scope of the invention, modifications and improvements of details may be imagined in practice, while equivalent means may be employed.
I claim:
1. A method for the production of back patterned warp pile fabrics, which consists in weaving into the weft of the fabric that part of the pile warp threads required for the pattern of the fabric, floating beneath the body of the fabric that part of the pile warp threads excluded from the pattern, leading the pile warpthreads to reenter the fabric one or more times according to the requirements of the pattern, first over a pile wire (top shed) and then around the foundation weft shot between said pile wire and the next following pile wire, then leading said threads over the next following pile wire, returning said threads to iioat below the foundation fabric, and finally removing from the under side of the body of the fabric the floating part of the pile Warp threads.
2. A method according to claim 1 for the manufacture of a double weft carpet characterized by the feature that the pile warps required in the formation of the pattern are led one or more times in succession rst above a pile Wire then 110 below Aa backing weft of the fabric foundation, then over a face weft of the foundation, then below a backing weft and finally over the next following pile wire and back to the floating position below the fabric foundation.
3. A method according to claim l, characterized by the feature that when two pile warps pass over a pile wire simultaneously the pile warp entering the pattern continues the weave by passing below and round the corresponding backing weft of the 12u fabric foundation While the pile warp leaving the design passes over this weft to return to the floating position below the fabric foundation.
