| (54) | Lever driving device for weft cutters in weaving machines |
| (57) The purpose of the device consists in making possible disengagement of the weft cutter
drive out of operation, in the course of the weaving machine operation with the possibility
of performing a cut beyond the firm coupling synchronizing with the weaving machine
speed or in the course of its stoppage. This is achieved by that the lever driving
device is constituted by a pair of mutually resiliently mounted levers (4, 5) by means
of a resilient spacing member (6), the driving lever (5) being coupled in its drive
with driving cam (11) and the driven lever (4) with the tie rod (9) of the cutting
jaw, the force moment of lifting the driven lever (4) being smaller than the force
moment of the spacing of levers (4, 5). |
