Abstract

A weaving rotor of a series shed weaving machine provides a cover which forms a ring channel with the weaving rotor from a laying-in station up to the cloth edge in the direction of rotation. The ring channel is closed off by further covers, in the direction of rotation and at the side face where the weft arrives. Suction nozzles are mounted along the cloth edge which are dimensioned in such a manner that in spite of the air entering from the insertion and relay nozzles they produce a depression and a flow from the laying-in station to the cloth edge which prevents the deposition of fly. An additional suction nozzle at the arrival of the weft, which is placed in the direction of the weft insertion, additionally stabilizes the flow conditions in the ring channel.
