Abstract
A weaving machine of the type in which a main shaft is braked by an electromagnetic brake has, in addition to the brake, a lock for locking the main shaft against rotation. The lock includes a locking element which meshes into gear teeth of a wheel coupled to the main shaft. The lock is automatically activated when power to the weaving machine fails, and may be deactivated by turning a hand wheel.
