Abstract

The shuttleless weaving machine contains a weft inserter of a weft yarn having a receiving slot oriented towards the direction of inserting of a weft yarn. The inserter is provided with a clamp for receiving and holding the weft yarn to be inserted. The weft yarn inserter is provided with at least one cutting device. In order to render the weaving machine more simple, safer in operation and also faster, a portion of the receiving slot and the clamp are arranged in a replaceable cartridge inserted into a tubular housing. The wall of the housing is provided with a further portion of the receiving slot, which is in alignment with the first mentioned portion. The so-formed receiving slot receives and grips the weft yarn supplied to the shed of the weaving machine from the yarn bobbin.
