Connecting part for electrical warp stop motion on weaving machines

Abstract

The connecting part for electrical warp stop motions on weaving machines has two rectangular housing shells (2,3) pressed against each other at their open sides by means of a threaded pin (10) screwed into the first housing shell (2). The screw-head of the threaded pin is in the shape of a knob (11) and presses against the second housing shell (3). In the longitudinal sides (4,6) of both housing shells (2,3) are supporting slots (9) at equal distances to take up the contact bars. On the interior base (12,15) of each housing shell (2,3) is a strip (13,16) of elastic material and on each strip a contact foil (14,17) for conducting electricity to all the contact bars, the narrow edges of which have perfect contact with the contact foils, even at varying height resulting from deviations in manufacture, due to the elastic material under them. A plug pin (18), in the second housing shell (3) is in direct electrical contact to the contact foil (17) in this housing shell and a further plug pin (19) is electrically connected to the contact foil (14) in the first housing shell (2) by means of a rod (23) on the exterior of the longitudinal side of the second housing shell and by means of the screw-head (11) and the threaded pin (10).
