Abstract

Apparatus for forming a leno weave from a leno thread and a ground thread. The apparatus includes a reed for guiding the leno thread and the ground thread, and a needle bar with ground thread needles for guiding the ground thread. The needle bar also includes a movably mounted leno thread displacing apparatus, with the needle bar and the leno thread displacing apparatus being arranged ahead of the reed. The leno thread displacing apparatus includes a laying element that is displaceably mounted in a displacement direction that extends substantially parallel to the direction of extent for the reed. The laying element includes guiding apparatus for guiding the leno thread. The leno thread displacing apparatus is movably mounted in a direction of movement that extends transversely to the direction of extent of the reed, in particular, in a substantially vertically extending direction, in order to move the leno thread both in the displacement direction and in the direction of movement.
