摘要:
A covering band separating the weft inserters from their driving mechanism, for example, a driving chain in multiple-shed weaving machines wherein the band forcibly resiliently engages the inserters. The covering band possesses its highest elasticity in the direction of the driving force of the chain, and in the direction perpendicular to said driving force. In the directions lying intermediate, the direction of the driving force and the direction perpendicular thereto, the elasticity of the covering band is at its lowest. The covering band is firmly clamped along the two sides thereof on a guide for the chain.
