Abstract

A weaving machine (1) equipped with a level adjustment device (8) for a plurality of oscillating levers (26), the oscillating levers being provided with cam followers (42) and mounted on a shaft (28) of the levers, the shaft of the levers being movable between a weaving configuration, where the cam followers of the oscillating levers bear against cams (18) of the shedding mechanism, and a level adjustment configuration, where the cam followers of the oscillating levers are separated from the cams of the shedding mechanism. The level adjustment device comprises a level adjustment picking cam member secured to the shaft of the levers. The shedding mechanism further comprises a pad translatable along a fixed axis (X66) between a first position corresponding to the weaving configuration of the shaft (28) of the levers (26) and a second position corresponding to the level adjustment configuration of the shaft of the levers, and at least one level adjustment connecting rod (60) including a first end (84) mounted pivoting on the level adjustment picking cam member around an axis (X84) of the connecting rod parallel to the central axis (X28) of the shaft of the levers and a second end (86) mounted pivoting on the pad around an articulation axis (X86) of the pad parallel to the axis of the shaft of the levers.
