  • the warp threads 14 and the woven cloth 15 are shown only on the right-hand side of the figure.
  • the warp threads 14 and the cloth 15 can extend to the 'dash-and-dot line 11.
  • the conchoidal i.e.
  • shuttles 18 are each charged with a length of weft thread on the right-hand side of the loom (not illustrated), and are pushed by means of reed dents 13 through the changing sheds formed by the warp threads 14. Movement of the shuttles 18 is effected by the reed dents 13 executing movements in the direction of the double-headed arrow 16, these movements as a whole having an undulating character. The upwardly moving reed dents 13 thereby encounter the inclined rear edge 17 of each of the shuttles 18, so that the shuttles are moved to the left. During this movement a weft thread 12 is continuously drawn from each of the shuttles l8 and is inserted into the sheds.
  • the emerging shuttles pass to the left into the discharge mechanism 19.
  • This mechanism incorporates a slide 20 to which is imported an upwards and downwards movement by a crank drive (not illustrated), which actuates the thrust rod 22.
  • the slide 20 contains a recess or slot 24 for accommodating one of the shuttles 18.
  • the reference numeral 27 designates a roller chain, which is driven and reversed by the chain wheel 28.
  • the roller chain 27 is positively guided in the rail 25 as its rollers run inthe grooves 21.
  • Drive pins 23 are fitted at equal distances apart on the chain 27.
  • the shuttles 18 are guided in the return channel 26 for the purpose of moving them back to the right side of the loom to the loading mechanism.
  • the slide 20 is in its bottom dead center position so that the shuttle 18 can be pushed into the recess 24 in the slide 20.
  • the slide 20 moves upwards. In this upper position, one of the drive pins 23 engages the tip of the shuttle 18 and pushes it to the right.
  • the slide moves downwards to collect the next shuttle 18.
  • the construction of the shuttles 18 will be further explained by reference to FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the shuttle 18, as illustrated, has a slot 30 in each of the sidewalls 38, 38 of an elongated shell-shaped body.
  • a plate 31 of complementary form to that of the slot is inserted into each of the slots.
  • a carrier 32 is secured to each of the plates 31.
  • Each of the carriers 32 has a plush lining 33 secured thereto.
  • the carriers 32 have inclined resilient portions 34, whereby both the ends 35 and the ends 36 of the two carriers are resiliently compressed within the interior of the shuttle.
  • the ends 36 together form a brake means for the weft thread 12 running out of the shuttle 18 while the shuttle is moving to the left across the loom (see FIG. 1).
  • the piece of weft thread of predetermined length which is placed within the interior of the shuttle or weft-inserting element 18 for the'purpose of inserting the thread into this associated shed, is held between the plush or bristle linings 33 which together with the carriers 32 form a retaining means for the thread.
  • the two sidewalls 38, 38' of the conchoidal shuttle 18 are held or connected together by the spine or closed edge portion 39 and the reinforcements 60, which are located a both ends of the ,closed edge portion 39.
  • the two sidewalls 38, 38' are not connected over the remaining open portion of the periphery of the shuttle body.
  • An advantageous way of inserting pieces of thread of predetermined length into the shuttles 18 of the described kind consists in pushing into the interior of each of the shuttles 18 a piece of thread in the form of a coil comprised of several turns, which coil is wound, for example, about a blade-shaped member.
  • each shuttle 18, in the horizontal position shown in FIG. 1 or 2 is pushed downwards, at the zone where a coil is located over the horizontally disposed blade-shaped member; its sidewalls being in vertical positions. If the shuttle 18 is then drawn horizontally away from the blade-shaped member in the longitudinal direction of the member, then the plush linings or inserts 33 retain the coil of thread in the interior of the shuttle 18 in an orderly position.
  • each of the shuttles 18 contains a slot 61 located near the closed edge portion 39.
  • the slot 61 is located in the front sidewall 38' as shown in FIG. 2, and extends through the sidewall into the interior of the shuttle 18.
  • a wiping device 40 is secured by means of an angle-type support 41 to the rail 25.
  • the support 41 (a portion which is shown in'section) supports s resilient blade or arm 42. Fitted on the arm is a control cam 43 and a double-tipped wiper 44. The spring action of the arm 42 biases the cam 43 and the wiper 44 towards the return path of the shuttles 18.
  • the wiper 44 is located a the level of the slot 61 and the cam 43 somewhat lower, e.g. roughly at the center point between the slots 30 and 61.
  • a suction nozzle 45 shown in FIG. 1.
  • the suction noule extends upwards and serves to remove fibers or other particles that remain hanging from the wiper 44.
  • the suction pipe 45 has not been shown in FIG. 4.
  • the shuttles 18 being returned to the loading mechanism are moved in succession to the right along the rail 25 by the drive pins 23 on the chain 27. During this movement the shuttles pass the point where the wiping device 40 is located. During this movement, each shuttle 18 first strikes the cam 43 with its front sidewall 38 so that the wiper 44 is moved away out of the path of the inserting elements. Upon further movement of the shuttle 18, the control cam 43 slides away again from the front wall 38 of the shuttle. By spacing the elements 43 and 44 at a suitable distance from each other, this sliding movement occurs when the wiper 44 is located at the righthand end of the slot 61. The wiper 44 thus drops into the slot 61 and due to the movement of the shuttle 18 the slot 61 is wiped and is thereby periodically cleaned.
  • the wiper is so positioned above the slide 20 (shown in FIG. 1), that the wiper moves into the right-hand end of the slot 61 at the moment at which the shuttle 18 is pushed by the slide 20 into its topmost position. If a pin 23 then strikes this shuttle and the shuttle is moved to the right, the slot 61 in the shuttle 18 is then wiped clean by the wiper.
  • FIG. 5 A further form of construction for the cleaning means is described in reference to FIG. 5.
  • a support 41 secured to the rail 25 (FIG. 1) again carries a resilient blade or arm 42 biased to contact a shuttle.
  • the shuttle 18 again has a slot 61 which constitutes the zone to be cleaned.
  • a wiper 46 Secured to the free end of the arm 42 is a wiper 46.
  • This embodiment of the wiper has a control cam 47 and the two prongs 48.
  • the control cam 47 and the two prongs 48 are positioned at the level of the slot 61.
  • the cam 47 may have a rounded free end, and each of the prongs 48 can be provided with two curved tips, the vertical distance between which corresponds roughly with the width of the slot 61.
  • FIG. 6 shows this arrangement of the tips in a side view of this embodiment.
  • the level of the wiper may be accurately fixed by a guide means 49 also secured to the rail 25.
  • FIG. 7 shows yet another embodiment for cleaning the shuttles of a wave-type loom, in which construction the surfaces of the plush linings are subjected to periodic cleaning.
  • FIG. 7 again shows a shuttle 18 which moves to the right in the rail 25.
  • Shuttle 18 is identical to shuttle 18 with the exception that the slot 61 has been omitted.
  • the drive pin 23, shown in FIG. 1, is replaced by a drive plate 50in this embodiment.
  • a cleaning finger 52 is mounted to rotate about the pin 51 and the pin 51 is firmly connected to the return rail 25.
  • the cleaning finger 52 is thin so that it can move between the two carriers 32 and linings 33 (shown in FIG. 3) of the shuttles 18' (in the upward direction).
  • a return spring 53 permanently urges the cleaning finger in the anticlockwise direction about the pin 51.
  • the drive plate 50 which is moved by the roller chain 27 shown in FIG. 1, engages the tip of each of the shuttles 18.
  • the pin 54 firmly connected to the cleaning finger 52, projects on both sides beyond the thickness of the cleaning finger 52, so that it comes into contact with the underside of each of the shuttles 18 during their movement past it. TIn this way pin 54 holds the finger 52 in the position illustrated and prevents it from turning in the clockwise direction.
  • the height of the drive plate 50 is so selected that, by pressing the control edge 55, 56, this plate causes the hook-shaped end of the cleaning finger 52 to bear against the inner surface of the closed edge portion or spine 39. In this way the finger 52 can be positioned in precisely predetermined positions.
  • the return spring 53 urges the cleaning finger 52 upwards, so that it is constantly held in the correct arrest position and the finger 52 is caused to move into the shuttle 18 in a proper manner.
  • the cleaning finger 52 must slide along the entire length of the inner surface of the closed end portion 39.
  • the hook of the cleaning finger has a rounded or curved shape.
  • the closed edge portion 39 of each of the shuttles 18, i.e. the zone at which the two sides of the shuttles are interconnected, extends only along the upper edge of the shuttle.
  • the finger 52 can swing in the clockwise direction before leaving the shuttle 18' again.
  • the hook can be curved to a lesser extent. This results in improved cleaning of the interior of the shuttles.
  • the cleaning means shown in FIG. 7 can be advantageously combined with those illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 4 or 5 and 6.
  • the shuttles 18' are also provided with a slot 61.
  • the shuttles first pass a wiper or cleaning finger 52, as illustrated in FIG. 7, and then a wiper 44, as shown in FIG. 4, or a wiper 46, as in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • the arm 52 shown in FIG. 7, shifts the debris dislodged in the cleaning operation at least into the vicinity of the inner surface of the closed edge portion 39, or as far as the upper, horizontal, portion thereof.
  • the debris is then moved along the slot 61 by means of the wiper 44 shown in FIG 4 or the wiper 46 illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6. In such an arrangement it is not necessary to provide a hook at the end of the finger 52.
  • a suction or blower pipe can be used instead of the wipers or cleaning elements 44 and 46.
  • the slot 61 in each of the shuttles 18 is moved along the suction or blast orifice of this pipe, the threads or particles of dust are sucked up or blown away therefrom.
  • FIGS. 8 and 9 Still another embodiment of the present invention will be explained by reference to FIGS. 8 and 9.
  • the grip-type shuttle 70 which is shot to-and-fro on the sley 76, is used for inserting the weft threads. In the drawing it is located in the at rest position at the right hand end of the path over which it travels for inserting the weft threads.
  • the shuttle or weft-inserting element 70 has two grips or gripping means 71 and 72 for holding the weft threads to be inserted. When the shuttle 70 moves from left to right, it retains the weft thread by means of the grip 72.
  • the grip 72 is opened to release the thread.
  • the grip 72 comprises the two small plates 73 and 74. To retain the weft thread, the plate 74 is pressed against the plate 73 by being swung about the pin 7
  • the cleaning means for cleaning the grip 72 comprises an arm 77, carrying .a wiper 78 at this free end.
