Abstract
Free flight magnetizable selector elements are transferable from a selector element store disc to a selector element support disc for selecting particular ones of a series of textile processing implements in response to a program. The discs are disposed with an arcuate portion of one disc closely adjacent to an arcuate portion of the other disc, and the selector elements are transferred from store disc sockets to support disc sockets and vice versa by a transfer magnet. The discs include magnets with opposite polarity to maintain transferred selector elements in the sockets of the selected disc until the transfer magnet effects another transfer. The sockets of the store means and support means have the same pitch as the textile implements; however, the sockets of the entire support means may be distributed among a set of identical superjacent discs each having a socket pitch an integer multiple of the textile processing implement pitch. The store means has a corresponding set of superjacent discs. The cooperating store means and support means disc pairs may be disposed in a common plane or in intersecting planes.
