Abstract
A transfer device comprises a transfer lever arranged to execute an oscillatory movement and carries a thread clamp at its free end. This thread clamp comprises a leaf spring constituting a movable, controllable clamping element. The leaf spring can be raised by an actuating lever pivotally mounted on the transfer lever and which is movable relative thereto. At least one thread pick-up or entrainment element and preferably two thread pick-ups or entrainment elements, are arranged on the batten of the loom to position the weft or filling thread in the thread clamp in a predetermined position. This arrangement constitutes a relatively very simple, operationally reliable and self-cleaning transfer device.
