Abstract: A looper module for tufting machines in which loop pile tufts of yarns are formed in a backing material in a chained stitch formation includes a module body in which a series of looper assemblies are received. The module body generally includes a series of slotted openings in which the looper assemblies are received, and further can include a looper support section that projects upwardly from the module body and includes a series of slotted openings formed in spaced series therealong. The looper assembly generally includes a primary looper, having a loop pile looper portion and a pattern looper portion. First and second transfer loopers are attached to the body of the primary looper. Each of the transfer loopers generally includes a throat portion that generally extends along and inwardly toward a throat of the loop pile looper portion of the primary looper.
