Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0947620A1] A Jacquard loom heddle is made by longitudinally slitting a wire (20), opening the slit (24) and permanently fixing a warp thread guide eyelet (22) in the slit. A process for making a heddle, for coupling between an elastic return mechanism and a harness cord of a Jacquard type weaving loom, comprises (a) forming a longitudinal slit (24) in a single strand wire-like element (20); (b) separating the slit edges (24a, b) by deformation; (c) positioning a warp thread guide eyelet (22) between the separated edges; and (d) permanently fixing the eyelet in the slit. Independent claims are also included for a heddle gathering device in a Jacquard loom, made by the above process, a Jacquard loom harness heddle comprising a rod (20) with an open slit (24) in which a warp thread guide eyelet (22) is permanently fixed, a Jacquard loom gathering device including a heddle as described above.
