Abstract
Abstract Device for recording weaving faults in fabric being manufactured on weaving machines in which a recording card is fixed to a drum means and has associated therewith writing means that are initiated through an electro-magnet and circuitry connected to at least one stop motion on the stop circuit of the weaving machine. The drum which supports the recording card is rotated at the same speed as the advancing fabric being manufactured on the weaving machine through a transmission coupling the drum to means on the weaving machine such as the withdrawal cylinder.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
209 words
Device for recording weaving faults in fabric being manufactured on weaving machines having a withdrawal cylinder by making a written record of said faults on a recording card with symbols indicating the reason for the particular weaving faults comprising drum means mounted on a threaded end of a stationary shaft, a recording card mounted circumferentially on said drum means, transmission means connected to said withdrawal cylinder and coupling said drum means thereto and which transmission means moves at the same speed as advancing fabric being manufactured on said weaving machine and comprises a cam having at least one projection and which is mounted on the shaft of the withdrawing cylinder of the weaving machine, a roller mounted on a swingable lever means and bearing against said cam and a resilient cable connected to said swingable lever at one end and to the drum means at the opposite end, said drum means being provided with a helical, circumferential groove of the same pitch as the threaded end of said stationary shaft, writing means being mounted opposite the helical groove of said drum means and electromagnetic means, including circuit means and switch means connecting said electromagnetic means to at least one stop motion on the stop circuit of said weaving machine.
