<p>A shuttleless loom for weaving a fabric comprises a weft inserting device for inserting a pair of successive loops of weft yarns simultaneously through respective superimposed warp sheds from one side thereof, and a selvedge-forming device arranged along the other side of the warp sheds for forming a knitting selvedge at one edge of the fabric being woven. The weft inserting device reciprocates along a first arcuate path in a first plane extending substantially parallel to the fabric. The selvedge-forming device reciprocates along a second arcuate path in a second plane extending substantially perpendicularly to the first plane so as to pass through a single loop of one of the weft yarns and catch the other weft yarn projecting out of the warp sheds.</p> |
