Abstract
The rapier loom employs a runner on the underside of a picking tape at the rapier head in order to space the picking tape from the guide teeth used to form a slideway for the rapier within a shed of warp yarns. The runner may have a convex shape while the guide teeth have a curvilinear shape to slidingly support the runner. Alternatively, the runner may have a longitudinal groove to receive the guide teeth. A guide bar may also be disposed outside the shed to form a slideway for the runner while also being spaced from the picking tape.
