Abstract (en)

To draw a cut weft end Y2 into a weft guide nozzle 16 and then to introduce the same weft end Y2 into a weft inserting main nozzle 13 with certainty, thereby stabilizing the operation of feeding the weft properly through the guide nozzle 16 and the main nozzle 13. [STRUCTURE] The weft end Y2 formed by cutting a weft with a weft cutter 22 at a predetermined position is drawn into the weft guide nozzle 16 under the influence of suction force created by high-pressure air flow supplied from the valve Vll and thereafter the weft end Y2 is introduced into the main nozzle 13 by a low-pressure air flow supplied from the valve V4 whose pressure is set at an optimum level for insertion of the weft end into the main nozzle 13. <IMAGE>
