The invention relates to the textile industry and, more particularly, to weaving machines. The device comprises: a support (1) to be fixed on the weaving machine; a first lever (2) oscillating on the said support and provided with at least one tongue (3) which has at its end an eye (27) for guiding an additional warp thread; a second lever (6) also oscillating on the support (1) and provided with two bars (7) which are mounted in sliding fashion against each other in a direction parallel with the fell and which each have at least one eye for guiding a crossing thread; means (15, 16, 34, 35) for actuating pivoting of the two oscillating levers (2, 6); and means (49, 55, 65) for actuating sliding of the bars (7) for guiding the crossing threads, arranged so that each crossing thread passes alternately on either side of the corresponding additional warp thread. The invention is applicable to shuttleless weaving machines.

Leno selvedge forming device

In a shuttleless loom in which the weft thread is inserted by an entry needle, the yarn is transferred at the center of the width of cloth to an exit needle which carries an exit clip. The stationary clip body has a wedge-shaped end which cooperates with a hook carried by a movable portion for clamping the weft thread. The yarn is held between two clamping facets carried by the wedge-shaped end of the clip body and by the hook, the facets being inclined with respect to the plane of displacement of the movable portion.
