Loom take-up motion

摘要

A loom take-up motion (20) comprises a pressing member (pressure roller) (11) with its axis extended in parallel to that of a take-up roller (14) and pressed against a fabric roll (15) of a fabric (8) wound on the take-up roller (14), a variable-speed driving device (16) for driving the pressing member (11) for rotation about the axis thereof in a fabric winding direction, and a take-up controller(17) capable of controlling the driving device (16) by giving a speed signal produced on the basis of take-up speed at which the fabric (8) is wound round the take-up roller (14) to the driving device (16) to control the surface speed of the pressing member (11) properly according to weaving conditions including the type of the fabric (8) and the diameter of the fabric roll (15). The pressing member (11) is rotated positively while the fabric (8) is being wound round the take-up roller (14) to prevent forming folds and creases in the fabric(8) in the fabric roll (15).
