TEXTILE FABRIC.

Specication of Letters Patent. Patent-.ml Doc. 21, 1909.

Application tiled April 6, 190.7. Serial No. 366,749.

To all whom it lmay concern."

Be it known that I', JoHN C. Baooits, a citizen of the United States, residing at Paterson, in the county of Passaic and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful improvements in the Manufacture of T extile. Fabrics, of which the following is a specification. .A

My invention relates to the manufacture of multiple textile fabrics in which it is desired to form several plies, to produce a good body in the fabrics, or to cut apart, to

i produce several fabrics having pile surfaces on one or both facesl And the object of my invention is to use such a. method, or process in the-weaving of such fabrics', so as to vproduce them in an economical manner.

The method `in vogue, to weave )ile fab rics, has hitherto beenl limited to the insertion of two separate picks, simultaneously, in two separate warp sheds, and has been accomplished by throwing two shuttles, one traveling `upon the lay, the other traveling upon the bottom warp threads of the top fabric.l The use of a needle, to insert weft, being confined to one warp shed'formation only. ln so' called fabric blanks, the warp" sheds have been opened in succession, requir ing as many separate picks of weft as there are plies. In other abrics the pile being .formed by tufting needles, separately br nnitedly actuated.`

ln my improved method, or process, I form all warp sheds simultaneously, and simultaneously insert picksl of weft 1n each shed by using a plurality of weft needles.

therefor, acts :is stnifers for the desired principal fabric.

In the drawing, Figure' .l represents.y in an exaggerated form, a 3- pl y fabric, which when ciit apart, forms two, single pile faced fabrios, and one double faced pile faliric, woven by my method. Fig'. 2, sentation, but showing the additional fea ture of using four warp sheds :ind carrying a .supply of selectable warp threads within is a similar repro' ing of the three warp sheds for the last picks of weft shown in Fig. l. Fig. 4,' illus trates the formation of the war sheds for the last picks of weftsliown in Fig. 2. Fig. 5, is a front View of warp sheds, and weft. inserting needles, shown in Fig. A3. Fi". 6, is a similar view' of warp sheds, and needles, shown in Fig. s.

Referring to Fig. 1, the fabric, and Fig. 3, its process of formation, (i, .5, c. d, f', and g, are binding warp threads, and are passed through heddle eyes, a, b', o', d,ff, and g respectively, and are raised, and lowered, to form sheds; and the pile forming, or figuring, warp threads l, 2, 3, and 4f, passl through heddleeyes, l', 2, 3 and 4', and are moved as to be lifted, half! way to be boundy with center ply, or full height to be bound in the top ply.

Referring to Fig. 2, fabric, and Fig. 4, process of its formation, the binding warp threads a, b, c, d, f and g, pass through heddies, a', b, c, df and g, heddles, c and fl', moving double the distance of heddles 0,, b', f and g', so as to allow for the inserting of separate picks of weft above and below the pile forming, or figuring warp threads carried in the middle ply, the said threads pass through their respective heddies, thus, threads 1, 2, and 3 pass through heddles l', 2', and 3', and are raised, to be bound, or show, in the upper ply; the l tlireadgy 5, and G, pass through lieddles 4',

o and d, and fare lowered to be bound, or

the middle ply. Fig. 3, illustrates the form-y show, in the bottoni ply. Theweft inserting y needles, 20', are arranged one above the other, and simultaneously inserted within their respeetive warp sheds.

Having' described my invention, l', claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent.;-
