Abstract

A heald loom comprises a weaving machine (1) and a dobby (2) which can be coupled to one another via a mechanical transmission apparatus (3) and have a common drive train in the coupled state which can be driven by a main drive (5) It further comprises an auxiliary drive (6) which is arranged to act at least on the part of the drive train driving the dobby. The heald loom further comprises at least one sensor (7, 8) which measures the torque actually present at the drive train and which is arranged along the drive train in the region between the weaving machine (1) and the dobby (2) or in the end region of the weaving machine (1) or the dobby (2) respectively bordering on this region. This sensor (7, 8) is connected to a control system (9) which actuates the auxiliary drive (6) in such a manner that the torque and/or fluctuations in the speed of rotation present between the weaving machine (1) and the dobby (2) are reduced.
