  • Reeds for air jet looms
    Patent number: 4655262
    Abstract: Reeds for an air jet loom. Each reed has a weft insertion channel. The reed teeth are formed in such a way that they have a first region for the guide channel and a straight section for seating-up of the weft thread. The profiling of the teeth allows secondary air streams towards the base of the weft insertion channels. This improves the stability of the thread by keeping the weft closer to the base of the channel.
