--NEW--
HIGH-SPEED POWER LOOM FOR INGRAIN CARPETS.
Built by THE M. A. FURBUSH & SON MACHINE CO., Philadelphia, Pa., U. S. A.
-->ONE HUNDRED PICKS PER MINUTE.<-- FIFTEEN SHUTTLES PICK AND PICK.
This Loom combines the best features of the Duckworth and Murkland
Looms; while possessing the shading capacity of the latter, it is
easier in its operation, and of a considerably higher speed than either.
The following points as to the construction and operation of this Loom
will prove to any manufacturer, superintendent, fixer or weaver the
superiority of the same over any other style:
=Runs light.= THERE IS NO HEAVY LAY TO OPERATE, AS IN OTHER LOOMS. The
lay (raceway and boxes) are stationary, and the filling is beaten up
by means of a comb, which is the only part that swings; being light,
it can easily accomplish the movements necessary for the _one hundred
picks per minute_, which could never be attained by operating the lay
as in any other loom.
=No tearing of cloth= BY THE SHUTTLE CATCHING IN THE WARP AND BEING
DRAWN UP BY THE REED, as the comb for beating up the filling passes in
front of the shuttle.
=Easy on filling.= The peculiar shape of the filling fork allows the
shuttle to pass under it, at the same time merely opening wide enough
to admit the filling. The motion is easy and delicate, and will not
break the poorest filling--a great point of superiority over all other
high-speed looms, in which there is always more or less tendency to
chop the filling.
=Shuttle boxes.= The box mechanism is the same as in the Murkland Loom,
there being a revolver of seven boxes and three upright boxes, thus
giving ten boxes on each side, or twenty in all.
=The Jacquard machine= is constructed principally as in the Duckworth
Loom, although the cylinder gauge, boards and journals are like those
of the Murkland. The cylinder is worked with the rock shaft of the
Duckworth Loom, instead of a cam shaft.
=The change gears= FOR TAKE-UP, instead of being worm gears, are
ratchet; but the number of teeth to number of picks is the same as in
the Murkland.
=Power back-off.= The Loom has a power back-off, as in the Duckworth, a
pressure of the foot being sufficient to reverse the Loom.
=Separate cams= are provided for each arrangement of boxes, instead of
segment cams as in the Murkland Loom.
=The Loom is pick and pick. Journals are operated from below by cams
and treadles.=
The new Loom covers all the features demanded in a perfect Ingrain
Carpet Loom, including =ability to make all the new weaves=.
