Abstract
An apparatus for manufacturing a woven slide fastener comprises means for weaving a slide fastener stringer tape, a mandrel around which a monofilament is coiled as it is woven into the stringer tape, and a coiling rotor assembly having a pair of wheels rotatably mounted in a pair of housings and on a floating axle to which the mandrel is fixed, and having guide means rotatable for revolving the monofilament in an orbital path around the axle. A pair of plungers jointly or individually act between the floating axle and one of the housings along a path diametrically across said orbital path by which the axle is held immovably with respect to said one of the housings. The plungers are retractable one at a time out of the orbital path so as to allow the monofilament and the guide means to cross the path of movement of the plungers.
