Abstract
In a textile machine, a device for controlling the transverse movement of a thread, such as a warp thread in a weaving machine, comprises a dragging element (2) for dragging a thread (4) moving in a transverse direction, whereby said dragging element (2) is attached on both sides to a frame (10) by means of springs (6,8). The device forms a system that oscillates freely at its natural frequency. Arresting devices (12,14) can adjustably and temporarily hold the dragging element in the extreme positions.
