Faulty weft removing device for a jet loom.

摘要

The present invention provides a yarn transfer device, in particualt a weft transfer device, having a simple construction capable of surely pulling out the leading end of the weft of a weft package (3) and of surely threading the leading end through a weft measuring/storing device (12) of a storage drum type when a weft being fed is broken between the weft package 3 and the weft measuring/storing device 12. A friction belt 11 with a fuzzy working surface for separating the leading end of the weft (Y) of the weft package (3) and for transferring the leading end to the inlet opening (12a) of the weft measuring/storing device is shifted between a standby position and an operating position. A motor (5) is driven for rotation in the normal direction and in the reverse direction to shift the friction belt (11) between the standby position and the operating position. The friction belt (11) is turned by a motor (8). <IMAGE>
