Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An intermediate receiving mechanism includes a base member capable of supporting both shaft end portions, a lever member for clamping both shaft end portions, and two beam support sets arranged side by side, corresponding to respective warp beams. Each beam support sets is constituted by two or more supporting rollers on the base member side and a contact part including one or more contact rollers on the lever member side. The lever member includes a swing member swings about a swing shaft and supports both the contact parts. Support positions on the swing member for both the contact parts are positions where a line segment connecting the support position for one contact part and a shaft center of the swing shaft forms an angle with respect to a line segment connecting the support position for the other contact part and the shaft center.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An intermediate receiving mechanism for warp beams in a loom configured to rotatably support shaft end portions of a pair of warp beams between adjacent flanges of the pair of warp beams arranged side by side in a weaving width direction, the intermediate receiving mechanism comprising: a base member configured to be able to support both the shaft end portions; a single lever member provided to be rotatable with respect to the base member, and configured to clamp both the shaft end portions in a state of being supported on the base member, in cooperation with the base member; and two beam support sets arranged side by side adjacent to each other in the weaving width direction, corresponding to the respective warp beams, wherein each of the beam support sets includes two or more supporting rollers provided for the base member and configured to support the shaft end portion, and a contact part including one or more contact rollers provided for the lever member and configured to be brought into contact with the shaft end portion, wherein the lever member includes a swing member provided to be able to swing about a swing shaft provided in parallel to the weaving width direction, and configured to support both the contact parts, and wherein support positions on the swing member for both the contact parts are positions where a line segment connecting the support position for one contact part and a shaft center of the swing shaft forms an angle with respect to a line segment connecting the support position for the other contact part and the shaft center.
