An apparatus for inserting a weft into a shed by jetting fluids in a jet loom comprises a plurality of thin plate-like members arranged in alignment in the direction of weft insertion on a sley, each of the thin plate-like members being provided with an opening in the same position of each of said thin plate-like members to form a guiding channel, and nozzle means for jetting fluids through the guiding channel. Each of the thin plate-like members is provided with at least one cavity which is formed adjacent the circumference of each of the openings of the thin plate-like members on a downstream sidewall, in the direction of weft insertion, of the mutually facing sidewalls thereof. Due to the formation of the aforesaid cavity, the amount of the fluid flow escaping through the space between each two adjacent thin plate-like members outside of the guiding channel without narrowing the width of the space therebetween. As a result, the flight of the weft is remarkably stabilized and the flying speed of the weft is increased with reducing the consumption of fluids jetted from nozzle means.

Apparatus for inserting a weft into a shed by jetting fluids in a jet

An improved method and apparatus for jetting auxiliary fluid to a fluid and filling guide passage formed on a sley in a jet loom wherein a plurality auxiliary nozzles are vertically disposed at predetermined intervals to confront the opening of the guide passage, the entire region in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the opening of the guide passage is covered by the auxiliary fluid jetted from the opening of the respective nozzles.

Method and apparatus for jetting auxiliary fluid in jet loom

Method and apparatus for carrying out the filling operation in a jet loom, wherein a main nozzle is provided for flying a weft through a guide passage formed on a sley at the time of each filling operation. When the supply of a compressed fluid into the main nozzle is stopped immediately after the completion of a filling operation, the compressed fluid present between a transfer valve connected to a fluid supply source and the main nozzle is positively discharged into the atmosphere simultaneously with the stopping of the supply of the compressed fluid, so as to promptly reduce the fluid pressure in the main nozzle, by utilizing the transfer valve designed for the present invention.

Method and apparatus for carrying out the filling operation in a jet loom

A device for inserting a weft yarn in a shed of the jet operated weaving machine provided with a control means for controlling the carrying action of the weft yarn, which is carried by a plurality of pressure fluid flows through a guiding channel formed in a comb arranged in parallel condition to a reed. The comb comprises a plurality of guiding plates and an air escaping passage formed between every two adjacent guide plates in such a condition that the quantity of the escaping air which flows through each escaping passage is maximum at a predetermined portion of each escaping passage. The above-mentioned control means comprises the above-mentioned escaping passages.
