Claims
- 1. A system for supplying at least one work position of at least one machine for producing a two-dimensional fabric with warp threads comprising means for holding a predetermined supply of a textile material comprised of said warp threads and loosely woven withdrawable weft loops, said withdrawable weft loops being held in place by having a portion of the end forming said weft loops being formed into stitches extending in a row along one side of the textile material, means for removing said textile material from said supply means and for separately removing said withdrawable weft loops so that only parallel warp threads remain, and means for feeding the parallel warp yarns in that condition directly to said at least one work position, said feeding means including control means adjacent the position where weft loops are withdrawn for controlling the feed rate of the textile material at that position.
- 2. A system according to claim 1 further including take up means for taking up the thread of the withdrawn weft loops.
- 3. A system according to claim 2 wherein the feed rate control means comprises a braking device.
- 4. A system as in claim 3, wherein said braking device comprises first and second brake rollers positioned adjacent one another and a third roller mounted so as to be pressable against, said first and second brake rollers so that said third roller can press material wrapped therearound against said first and second brake rollers to develop the desired warp thread tensioning.
