Abstract

A leno device for tying weft threads in the selvage of a fabric is constructed as an electric motor in which the stator is connected to a mounting bracket and the rotor forms the leno rotor disk or ring. A very compact structure results that can be mounted in the free space between the longitudinal struts and heddles of the first heald shafts in the loom.
