Abstract

A handicraft weaving loom with improved usability is provided. The weaving loom includes a main body having a pair of edge portions that are spaced apart from each other in a predetermined first direction. Each edge portion extends elongated in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The weaving loom further includes a yarn catch member provided with a yarn catch portion for holding threads in parallel. The yarn catch member is detachably attached to one of the two edge portions.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A handicraft weaving loom, comprising:
a main body including a base part and an inclined part formed integral with the base part, the base part including an upper face and a lower face, the main body further including a first edge portion and a second edge portion that are spaced apart from each other in a first direction, each edge portion extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the first edge portion being formed by the inclined part; and
a first yarn catch member including a yarn catch portion for holding threads in parallel, the first yarn catch member being detachably attached to the first edge portion of the main body.

2. The weaving loom according to claim 1 , further comprising a second yearn catch member detachably attached to the second edge portion of the main body.

3. The weaving loom according to claim 1 , wherein the first yarn catch member is slidable along the first edge portion.

4. The weaving loom according to claim 3 , wherein the main body is provided with a slide stopper to come into contact with the first yarn catch member.

5. A handicraft weaving loom, comprising:
a main body including a base part and an inclined part formed integral with the base part, the base plate including an upper face and a lower face, the main body further including a first edge portion and a second edge portion that are spaced apart from each other in a first direction, each edge portion extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the first edge portion being formed by the inclined part; and
a first yarn catch member including a yarn catch portion for holding threads in parallel, the first yarn catch member being detachably attached to the first edge portion of the main body
wherein the first yarn catch member further comprises a first extension and a second extension that are disposed opposite to the yarn catch portion and flanked by the inclined plate in a thickness direction of the inclined plate.

6. The weaving loom according to claim 5 , wherein each of the first extension and the second extension comprises a plurality of extending pieces spaced apart from each other in the second direction, and
the plurality of extending pieces of the first extension do not overlap with the plurality of extending pieces of the second extension as viewed in the thickness direction of the inclined plate.

7. The weaving loom according to claim 5 , wherein the first yarn catch member and the inclined plate are formed with a first engagement portion and a second engagement portion, respectively, the first and the second engagement portions being configured to come into engagement with each other.

8. The weaving loom according to claim 7 , wherein the first engagement portion is provided at one of the first extension and the second extension.

9. The weaving loom according to claim 7 , wherein one of the first and the second engagement portions comprises a recess, and the other one of the first and the second engagement portions comprises a protrusion to be fitted into the recess.

10. The weaving loom according to claim 5 , wherein the lower face of the base plate is provided with a leg projecting in the thickness direction of the base plate.

11. The weaving loom according to claim 5 , wherein the lower face of the base plate is provided with a mark positioned at a middle of the base plate in the first direction.

12. The weaving loom according to claim 1 , wherein the main body is provided with a coupling portion for coupling with another weaving loom.

13. The weaving loom according to claim 12 , wherein the coupling portion comprises a separation preventing structure that prevents detachment of the another weaving loom.

14. The weaving loom according to claim 1 , wherein an angle of the inclined part relative to the base part is more than 90 degrees.

15. The weaving loom according to claim 5 , wherein an angle of the inclined plate relative to the base plate is more than 90 degrees.

16. A handicraft weaving loom, comprising:
a main body including a first edge portion and a second edge portion that are spaced apart from each other in a first direction, each edge portion extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and
a first yarn catch member including a yarn catch portion for holding threads in parallel, the first yarn catch member being detachably attached to the first edge portion of the main body,
wherein the first yarn catch member further includes a first part and a second part that are disposed opposite to the yarn catch portion and flanked by a part of the main body.

17. The handicraft weaving loom according to claim 16 , wherein the part of the main body is a portion extended from the main body and disposed between the first part and the second part of the first yarn catch member.

18. The handicraft weaving loom according to claim 17 , wherein the portion extended from the main body is inclined with respect to the main body.
