The weaving machine has a device which is movable in the weft direction and comprises a loosening element adapted to be moved transverse to the weft direction and a catching element movable perpendicular to the cloth plane. Thereby also weft portions may be removed which have already been cut off from the yarn supply as well as broken weft portions.
