Abstract

The projectile weaving machine is provided with a retractor apparatus at the braking device in which an elastically yielding and damping body is disposed to absorb impact forces and damp vibrations. The elastically yielding and damping body is located between the stop surface of the retractor and a fulcrum between the retractor and a lever for moving the retractor within the apparatus. In some embodiments, the body is positioned between two parts of the retractor while in other embodiments, the body may be disposed between the retractor and the moving means or may be incorporated in the retractor itself.
