<p>A weft thread-storage apparatus for a loom, especially a gripper loom, comprises a storage for the temporary loop-shaped storage of a filling or weft thread to be inserted into the weaving shed. The substantially box-shaped storage is provided at its one end face or side with an opening of substantially slot-shaped configuration. This opening extends over practically the entire width of the storage. Internally of the storage, in the neighborhood of the slot-shaped opening, there is arranged at least one loop divider in the form of a motor-driven roll. The rotational axis of such roll extends perpendicular to the floor or base surface of the storage and its direction of rotation corresponds to the infeed direction of the weft thread. By regulating the peripheral speed at the roll it is possible to store loops of different length.</p> |
