  • Patent number: 5784922
    Abstract: A motor includes a rotatable cylindrical rotor housed in a stator and has a female threaded nut formed inside the rotor. The motor has a male threaded screw shaft engaging with the nut. The rotation of the rotor is transformed to linear movement of the screw shaft by restricting the rotation of the screw shaft. A plurality of engaging sections project from the screw shaft. A contact section is provided with the rotor to contact with the engaging sections. The contact section contacts the engaging sections in accordance with the rotation of the rotor to restrict the rotation of the rotor and to prevent the screw shaft from releasing from the rotor.

  • Patent number: 5433253
    Abstract: A cloth inspecting device on a loom for detecting abnormality in the cloth being produced has a light emitting and receiving assembly mounted within a sealed container with a transparent window facing the cloth. Drive means for the assembly is within the container and the assembly is mounted on a rail for movement along the length of the container across the width of the fabric. One or more filters are provided. A mirror is disposed opposite the container window with the cloth path therebetween. By placing the light emitting and receiving assembly in a sealed container the assembly as well as its driving mechanism is positively protected against interference by fly or dust during loom operation.
