Abstract
In a shuttleless loom in which the weft thread is inserted by an entry needle, the yarn is transferred at the center of the width of cloth to an exit needle which carries an exit clip. The stationary clip body has a wedge-shaped end which cooperates with a hook carried by a movable portion for clamping the weft thread. The yarn is held between two clamping facets carried by the wedge-shaped end of the clip body and by the hook, the facets being inclined with respect to the plane of displacement of the movable portion.
