Abstract

A support system for a temple arranged to hold and stretch the edge of woven fabric in a weaving machine wherein the temple includes a plurality of guide rings and an end guide ring located approximately at the edge area of the woven fabric. The support system includes an end support for rotatably holding the temple above the edge area of the woven fabric and which is integrated with an intersects the end guide ring of the temple from above the temple. A second support for supporting the temple from above is located spaced away from the end guide ring and includes a clamp for restraining the temple against rotation relative to the end support. The location of the end support relative to end guide ring leaves the fabric edge free from mechanical interference with the temple support. The temple support also includes position adjusting systems for adjusting the position of the temple relative to the weaving machine in a direction towards and away from the plane of the woven fabric, along the weaving width of the machine and in directions parallel to the woven fabric.
