Abstract

A standby weft yarn cutting preventing device is provided for a multicolor fluid jet loom, such as a multicolor air jet loom. In cutting a picked weft yarn among a plurality of weft yarns with the cutter of the loom, the standby weft yarn cutting preventing device drives away the free ends of the rest of the weft yarns from the operating zone of the cutter to prevent the free ends of the weft yarns on standby from being cut together with the picked weft yarn.
