Abstract
A loom includes a plurality of reciprocatably displaceable heald devices each generally disposed in a respective one of a plurality of parallel planes, and a plurality of levers each coupled through an intermediate element to a respective one of the heald devices. The respective pivot axis of each of at least two levers is differently spaced from the respective intermediate element to cause a respectively different displacement stroke for each of the at least two heald devices connected thereto. The respective pivot axis of each of the at least two levers is differently spaced from a plane which extends centrally of each heald device, parallel to the line of displacement thereof and perpendicularly to the planes of the heald devices.
