Braider

摘要

A braider having a mandrel support member which is pivotable around a braiding point and linearly movable toward and away from the braiding point. Since control of the position of the mandrel is performed by pivotal motion around the braiding point and linear movement in a direction toward the braiding point, the mandrel can be moved to an arbitrary position without depending upon movement of the mandrel by a great distance in one direction.
