Abstract (en)
A weft detecting device for an air-jet loom includes a main nozzle, an auxiliary nozzle, a reed including a plurality of dents, a reflective photoelectric sensor, and a determination unit. The dents each include a guide recess, and the guide recesses define a reed passage. The main nozzle and the auxiliary nozzle eject air to insert a weft through the reed passage. The reflective photoelectric sensor is located at a position that allows for detection of the weft . The reflective photoelectric sensor includes a light projector and a light receiver. The light projector emits light. The light receiver receives reflected light that has been reflected by the weft. The determination unit is configured to determine a position of the weft relative to the reed passage in a depthwise direction based on a light amount level of the reflected light.
