Campman, Los Angeles, Calif., assignors, by mesne assignments, to Raymond Development Industries Inc., a corporation of Delaware Original application Nov. 26, 1956, Ser.

6 Unitas. (Cl. 132tl) This invention relates to improved methods of weaving a fabric, and particularly the weaving of a wide fabric on a flat loom.
The invention has useful application in the weaving of a simple flat fabric, when the latter is too wide to be conveniently accommodated as a single layer on the loom. It also has useful application in the weaving of a curvilinear fabric as described in application Serial No. 623,366 filed November 20, 1956 and now US. Patent No. 2,998,030, from which the present specification has been divided.
The object of the invention is to provide a method by which the fabric can be woven on a loom of less transverse dimension than the Width of the fabric, by arranging the fabric in superposed la ers, or in folded form as it will be subsequently referred to.
This object is accomplished by arranging the banks of Warp elements in a stack as a series of superposed layers. There must be at least four layers; and there must be an even number of layers. One or more guide wires are then positioned between each separate pair of adjacent inner layers. Thus, when four layers are used (two outer and two inner), just one guide wire is required. If the stack consists of six layers (two outer and four inner), then two guide wires are needed, the first guide wire being between the first and second inner layers, and the second guide Wire being between the third and fourth inner layers. There are always two inner layers between each adjacent pair of guide wires (in the example just given, the second and third inner layers). Since, in the general case, there are N layers, there will always be N 2 inner layers (the 2 being the two outer layers), there will necessarily be half that number of guide wires, since each guide wire shares the pair of inner layers on each side of it, and since the pairs are separate and exclusive of each other. Let the number of guide wires 2 be referred to as M.
These guide wires are positioned to extend along the loom between the layers, as just explained, in the warp direction of the loom and, of course, inwardly of the lateral edges of the layers so as to lie truly between the layers. With the arrangement set up in this way, the Warp elements are so shed and the fill elements are so passed through the sheds that each fill element (a) extends from a first side of the loom through a first outer layer to the second side of the loom,
(12) then extends part way through a first inner layer adjacent said first outer layer to pass around a said guide wire and return through the next inner layer adjacent said first inner layer to the second side of the loom,
(c) then repeats M 1 times the last steps of extending part way through an inner layer and around a guide wire to return to the second side of the loom through a further inner layer,
3,l39,l l7. Patented June 30, 1964 (d) then extends from the second side of the loom through the second outer layer to the first side of the loom, (e) then extends part way through the inner layer adjacent said second outer layer to pass around a said guide wire and return through the next inner layer adjacent said last-mentioned inner layer to the first side of the loorn,
(f)and then repeats M -1 times the last steps of extending part way through an inner layer and around a guide wire to return to the first side of the loom through a further inner layer.
This procedure is then repeated as weaving proceeds with each fill element being beaten up in the usual way. Actually one continuous fill element may be used (in the manner described in the parent application above referred to) when a curvilinear fabric is being made with a crosssection of circular or like closed-figure shape. in this case, the above sequence (a) to (f) is simply repeated, so that step (a) follows directly on step (f), using the same fill element.
When making flat fabric the same procedure can be adopted, with subsequent severing of the fabric along one edge, or separate fill elements can be used during successive sequences (a) to (3). Obviously, this is the type of sequence that can be begun and ended at any place in the cycle, and step (a) has only been designated as the first step for reasons of convenience and ease of understanding.
Apart from permitting wide fabric to be made on a not so wide loom, the present invention has the advantage that it facilitates the tapering of the fabric, especially sharp tapering without loss of fabric strength.
In weaving tapered portions of shaped fabrics accord ing to the methods described in said parent application, warp ends are dropped from the weave only along a drop line in order to preserve uniformity of fabric density. In certain cases, however, where the surface is sharply tapered, or falls away substantially perpendicularly to the direction of weaving, a relatively large number of ends must be dropped either simultaneously or within a very few picks. The effect of dropping a large number of warp ends at one pick in the fabric along a single drop line is generally undesirable since yarn tension effects and longitudinal stretching of the fabric tends to withdraw the dropped ends slightly into the fabric, creating small gaps which may Weaken the fabric.
In order to minimize this effect, the fabric may be woven in folded form as illustrated in F165. 1 and 2 herein, which are respectively diagrammatic views of two embodiments of the present invention, each representing a cross-section of the folded fabric, with the wefts (or fill elements) indicated at 420 and the warps at 442.
The warp ends may be dropped along four or more longitudinally extending lines 42% spaced around the periphery of the fabric. Relatively stiff selvage, or guide wires 522. are disposed along the center line of the warp to keep the inner, concealed edges of the folds straight and properly aligned. The guide wires 4-22 are secured to the loom at their ends adjacent to the creel or warp beam, their free ends extending through the reed toward the take-up roll. If more than one wh'e is used, as shown for examplelin FIG. 2, they are preferably threaded through heddle eyes and controlled by the Jacquard mechanism.
In weaving folded fabrics, the sequence of the shedding and shuttle operations 'is determined according to the number of folds to be woven, and whether the fabric is to be woven in open or tubular form. For example, to Weave the tubular fabric illustrated in FIG. 1 the sequence may be as follows:
(1) The Jacquard head forms the shed for the upper or first outer layer 43% of the fabric;
(2) The shuttle traverses left to right;
(3) The Jacquard head forms the shed for the upper half 432 of the right-hand fold (or looked at another way the right-hand part of the first inner layer);
(4) The shuttle traverses right to left;
(5) The Jacquard head forms the shed for the lower half 434 of the right-hand fold (the right-hand part of the second inner layer);
' (6) The shuttle traverses left to right;
(7) The Jacquard head forms the shed for the lower or second outer layer 436 of the fabric;
(8) The shuttle traverses right to left;
(9) The shed for the lower half 438 of the left-hand fold is formed (the left-hand part of the second inner layer);
(10) The shuttle traverses left to right;
11) The shed for the upper half 440 of the left-hand fold is formed (the left-hand part of the first inner layer);
(12) The shuttle traverses right to left; and
(13) The reed sweeps forward to complete the pick.
On the second shuttle throw along each folded layer of the fabric the fill thread is caught and tensioned by the guide wire 422. This wire is provided to insure proper tensioning of the fill threads since the folded portions of the fabric are out of View of the weaver, and stretching or distortion of the warp ends might go unnoticed if no wire were provided and the warp ends themselves relied upon to tension the filling.
When two guide wires 422 are used (FIG. 2), basically the same sequence is employed, except that there are now four inner layers and the steps of passing the fill thread through parts of a pair of adjacent inner layers and around a guide Wire are repeated on each side of the loom, once of each guide wire after the the first.
A considerable degree of shaping of fabrics may be accomplished simply by weaving in folds according to the invention and without any other added correction. Preferably, however, one of the shaping methods hereinabove described is used in conjunction with weaving in folds to achieve optimum correction. The degree of correction required, however, decreases in proportion to the square of the number of lines along which warp ends are dropped. For example, when weaving in the fiat without any folds, the warp ends are dropped along two drop lines spaced 180 apart around the circumference of the fabric (represented by the line 74 of FIG. 7 of the parent application now US. Patent No. 2,998,030). When weaving in a double fold as shown in FIG. 1, four drop lines 420 are established along which the warp ends may be dropped. The correction factors required to achieve full curvature correction for fabric woven in the form illustrated in FIG. 28 of the parent application now US. Patent No. 2,998,030 are only one quarter as large as the correction factors hereinabove described. Similarly, the correction factors to achieve full curvature correction for fabric woven with two double folds and having six drop lines 420 are only one ninth as great as the correction factors required in the case of unfolded fabrics.
The folded form method is of substantial advantage for weaving fabrics of relatively great width such as, for example, fabrics to be used for large balloons, which fabrics may be to large to be woven without folds upon available looms. The capacity of a loom with respect to its Width may be readily increased by a factor of two or more by weaving in folds. It will be appreciated that this benefit is not limited to the weaving of curvilinear fabrics, but is equally applicable in the weaving of flat fabrics.
