APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING A WOVEN SLIDE FASTENER STRINGER

摘要

An apparatus for manufacturing a woven slide fastener stringer includes a first reed for beating a filling yarn through a shed of warp threads against the fell of a tape being woven and a second reed for beating a monofilamentary fastener element having successively interconnected convolutions in place along a longitudinal edge of the tape. The first and second reeds are actuated to alternate in their respective beating-up movements. The second reed is positioned to beat the element convolutions substantially centrally thereof away from their coupling head portions.
