| (54) | Selvage binding method, particularly for textile looms, and selvage binding device, particularly for textile looms |
| (57) A selvage binding device (1), particularly for textile looms, which is associable
with a textile loom (2) on which the warp threads (3) are stretched and with which
a weft insertion rod (4) is associated which carries a weft thread (5) through the
warp threads (3) held in position by a comb element (6), the device (1) further comprising
a shuttle with spool (7) that is movable along a direction substantially parallel
to the warp threads (3) and carries a reinforcement thread (8) which can be inserted
in a loop (9) defined by the weft thread (5) supported by the weft insertion rod (4),
a weft holder needle (10) being comprised which is movable independently of the shuttle
with spool (7) along a direction substantially parallel to the warp threads (3) and
being adapted to keep in position the weft thread (5) during the retraction of the
shuttle with spool (7), in this way, the reinforcement thread (8) remains inserted
into the loop (9) once the shuttle with spool (7) is retracted.
