Abstract: During the weaving action to weave a drying cloth, the wefts (1) or picks are gathered progressively together with the warps (2,3). On one part, the weft picks are gathered by a series of paired warps and, on the other part, the lifting of the leno yarns is controlled so that, along each pick, they are given alternating left and right movements. The planes (P) of the warp pinching action, defined by the shed and locking the same pick, have a secant to compress the sections (A) of the picks into a curved shape. The cloth is washed at least once, to optimize its absorption capacity. An Independent claim is included for a loom where the lift of the leno yarns is controlled to alternate to the right and left along each pick, where the pinching planes are at the same point on the same pick, to keep them parallel. Their secants are set to compress the sections into a curvature where the curve direction changes each time. Preferred Features: The warps are lifted by eccentrics. The warps are gathered in pairs with a fixed warp (2) and a second leno warp (3), which is manipulated to the left and right alternately, to be formed into a curvature along the section length through the pinching planes (P).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting and evaluating small capacitance variations for converting into a switching signal, using an electric amplifier (1), whose positive or negative supply terminal is connected to a positive or negative direct current voltage source and whose other supply terminal is connected to a reference potential. An electrode (2), which is positioned so that it can be displaced in relation to an object (3) that is to be sensed, is connected to the input of the amplifier. An alternating voltage signal consisting of positive and negative half-waves, such as a common-mode signal or a square-wave signal is applied to the supply terminals of the amplifier (1), in such a way that the supply voltage of the amplifier remains constant but that the amplifier (1) and electrode (2) pass through a voltage swing in the common-mode of the positive and negative half-waves of the alternating voltage signal. During the sensing of an object (3), a signal (electrode signal) which emanates from the electrode (2) is amplified in the amplifier (1) and this amplified alternating voltage signal which appears at the output of the amplifier (1) is subsequently rectified in a rectifier circuit, decoupled from the alternating voltage, earthed and used as direct current or continuous current for evaluation. The rectified, amplified alternating voltage signal to earth is directly dependent on the magnitude of the reactance between the electrode (2) and the object (3).
