Abstract: A full width power loom which produces flat woven paper machine webs and other articles with warp and weft threads and which has a width more than 6 meters has a sley reciprocable in a direction of warp threads, a thread introducing element formed as a projectile, a shooting end catching mechanism for the projectile, and guiding elements for guiding the projectile. The guiding elements exclusively guide the projectile and are movable synchronously with the sley.

Abstract: A power loom, particularly for weaving of sieves or screen fabrics, has a fabric batton, a fabric batton drive, a shaft drive, and a shuttle drive. The fabric batton drive includes a program-controlled servo motor, and a transmission located between the servo motor and the fabric batton.

Abstract: A tubular cop exchange arrangement comprises a cop magazine, a cop pressing device for pressing a cop from the magazine into a trough chamber of a shuttle, a cutting device for separating a weft thread from the ejected remaining portion of the cop and a control device. The shuttle has a clamping device provided near one end of a trough chamber for fixing the holding pin of a tubular cop, the shuttle having a thread brake and a thread inserting slot extending from another end of the trough chamber substantially rectilinearly. The cop ejecting device has a cop ejecting plunger which is upwardly extendable in a shuttle cop exchange position in a direction toward the holding pin clamped in the clamping device. The cop pressing device has a cop pressing plunger which is extendable in the cop exchange position downwardly against a cop located in the cop outlet opening of the cop magazine.
