(54) Warp tension detecting device for loom


(57) Warp T sent out from a warp beam 11 is guided by first and second rollers 13 and 14. The second roller 14 is positively swung through motion of a crank mechanism 39. The first roller 13 is supported by a back bracket 15 through the intermediation of a support lever 21 and a pivot 17. A load cell 25 included by a detection arm 35 connected to the support lever 21 detects a load applied to the first roller 13 by the tension of the warp T.
