Abstract:
Weaving machine for manufacturing a face-to-face pile fabric, comprising a weft device (1), (2) provided in order according to a top and a bottom insertion path, to insert a respective weft thread between warp threads (3-12), and shed-forming means (14), (15), (16), (17) working together with a lifting device (18, 19), of which first shed-forming means (14) are provided in order to bring warp threads (5), (6) above and between the insertion paths, second shed-forming means (15) are provided in order to bring warp threads (3), (4) between and below the insertion paths, and third shed-forming means (16), (17) are provided in order to bring warp threads (7-12) above, between and below the insertion paths, characterized in that the ratio (H/h) between on the one hand the intermediate distance (H1), (H2) between two warp thread positions and on the other hand the lifting height (h) applied by the lifting device, is greater for the third shed-forming means (16), (17) than for the first (14) and the second shed-forming means (15).
