Weft gripper for weaving machine

摘要

An improved weft carrying/feeding gripper for weaving machines, consisting of two components which are biased together by a spring device, and wherein one of the contact areas of at least one of the components comprises a resilient component (6), and wherein the setting of the pretension of the resilient component (6) is adjustable. The weft is thus held firmly in a direction along its length between the contact areas, and loosely in a weft feeding direction.
