Abstract
A warp beam bearing for a loom which includes a projecting arm carried on each side of the loom frame. A guide surface is provided on each of said arms for receiving a shoe which has an arcuate surface provided thereon. A cylindrical sleeve is detachably secured to each end of the warp or loom beam for supporting said loom beam in said arcuate surfaces of said shoe. A stop surface engages one side of the cylindrical sleeve for properly positioning the beam on the loom. A pivotal spring biased clamp engages the other side of the cylindrical sleeves for pressing the sleeves against the stop surface when said beam is in a running position. A low frictional surface is provided on the clamp where the clamp engages the cylindrical sleeve. In removing the beam from the loom the clamp is pivoted out of engagement with the cylindrical sleeve and the shoe is shifted along the guide surface to a remote position wherein a truck can lift the beam.
