Abstract
A structure for weaving without outer leno yarns on an air jet loom eliminates the auxiliary selvage from both sides of the fabric being woven. A mechanical filling yarn clamp is disposed between the filling detector and suction source on the right-hand side of the loom for holding the ends of the picks during weaving. A suction source nozzle is mounted adjacent and exterior of a fringe cutter downstream of the temples on the right-hand side for removing pick trimmings cut by the fringe cutter. A combined clamp and cutter is mounted on the left-hand side of the loom adjacent the fabric edge to provide acceptable fringe length without subsequent trimming.
