Abstract: A method for weaving fabrics with a two-sided rib structure, such as false boucl{acute over (e)} fabrics, comprises forming a fabric on a weaving machine from weft threads and warp threads of a series of warp thread systems, with sets of at least two weft threads running one above the other. Each warp thread system comprises at least three pattern warp threads of which two opposite each other, respectively along the upper side and the lower side of the fabric, form a number of ribs. The pattern warp threads are alternately rib-formingly passed around over one or several sets of weft threads and are interlaced in the fabric, while each additional pattern warp thread is inwoven in the fabric between weft threads of the sets over which other pattern warp threads are rib-formingly passed around.

Abstract: Rotating sleeves having a body for receiving a yarn sleeve. The body has a side extension forming a flank piece. The flank piece is deformable such that a transverse dimension, for example, the greatest radial transverse dimension, of the body is reduced. The flank piece is generally plate-shaped with opposite edges forming the side edge of the body. Since the flank piece with the yarn sleeve is deformable, it reduces the transverse dimension of the body and thereby allows for yarn sleeves with small diameters to be slipped on easily.

Abstract: Jacquard machine with lifter device has a first (1) and a second lifter element (2). The lifter elements are suspended from at least one hook (3, 4), (5, 6) respectively, which hook can be selected to be carried along by one of two knives (7'), (8') moving up and down in counterphase. A reversing roller (9') is provided. A lifter cord (10) is attached by one end (10') to a part of the device and is passed in succession over a roller (1') of the first lifter element (1), the reversing roller (9') and a roller (2') of the second lifter element (2). The other end of the cord is connected to one or more harness cords for lifting at least one warp thread on a weaving loom. First and second grates are provided on the machine. The reversing roller (9') is attached on a first grate (12). Each grate (12), (11) optionally can be disposed either in a fixed position or in a movable position such that it can be set in motion up and down in phase with one of the knives (7'), (8').

Abstract: A three-position open-shed jacquard machine has a system with two interacting hooks (1), (2) for lifting a warp thread on a weaving loom. First and second knives (10), (11) are movable up and down in counterphase and in their bottom dead-center position can carry along a respective hook (1), (2) from a selection height (S). A first control element (20) selects each hook (1), (2) so that it can be carried along by the first and second knives (10), (11). Third and fourth knives (12), (13) are movable up and down in counterphase and in their top dead center position carry along a respective hook (1), (2), from the selection height (S). A second control element (21) selects each hook (1), (2) so that it is retained at the selection height (S). A hook (1), (2) which has not been selected by either of the two control elements (20), (21) is carried along by the third and fourth second knives (12), (13).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a face-to-face pile fabric wherein first weft thread is provided in the top fabric and the bottom fabric adjacent to second and third weft threads located one above another. Three weft threads are inserted simultaneously. Each warp thread system, has binder warp threads, tension warp threads and pile-forming pile warp threads interlacing with a three-pick weave. In each case pile is formed on the first weft thread provided on the back of the second and the third weft thread. Binding of the dead pile warp thread is distributed over both the fabrics. Pile is formed on the third weft thread located on a back side. A pile thread that starts forming a pile or finishes forming a pile is first interlaced with a third weft thread before is starts forking the pile or before it is bound-in. Binder warp threads are provided to bind the first weft threads in a separate opening. Pile is formed on the first weft thread which is not provided on the back of the fabrics.
