(54) Warp tension device with a gradual-action suspension for weaving looms


(57) A warp tension device is disclosed, of the type comprising a compensating cylinder (1) supported on at least two stations arranged along the width of the loom and on at least two support elements (2,3) for each station, movable by the action of a force expressed by the tension of the warp yarns passing over it and an opposing action of a resilient element (7), wherein the displacements of the two support elements (2,3) of each station are in a respective relationship established by a predefined kinematic mechanism, said resilient element (7) reacting to the displacement of at least one of said support elements (2,3).
