Abstract: The support arrangement according to the present invention has an inner strap which surrounds the ball-bearing outer race or a bush receiving the ball bearing, and an outer strap intended for installation in a casing. These two straps are connected to one another by bending spring bars uniformly distributed over the periphery of the straps, in such a way that a coaxial gap is present between them.

Abstract: The end portions to be connected are arranged opposite one another, after at least some of the web weft threads have been removed therefrom to form a tying strip interconnecting the ends of the web warp threads in their original order. The web warp threads are gradually released from the tying strip, spatially separated, on an individual basis and in their original order, from the following web warp threads and delivered to the entrance of the then open seam loom shed formed in seam warp threads positioned intermediate the points of emergence of the web warp threads out of the original web. Thereafter, the separated threads are caused to traverse, as seam weft threads, the respectively associated seam shed produced by a Jacquard seam loom, this traversing movement being accomplished by a clamping arrangement arranged at the free end of a floating arm.
