This shuttle is used to fabricate cylindrical textiles by a circular loom. The shuttle (30) comprises a plurality of guide wheels (31a, 32a, 31b and 32b) running on annular guide members (25a, 25b), and a wheel (33) for guiding a weft. The axis (Z) of the guide wheels is inclined to stably drive the shuttle against the centrifugal force and gravity. Since the wheel can be made to approach the bobbin (46) from the position for guiding the weft, the shuttle can be readily attached to and removed from the loom. |
