Abstract

A linear motor for controlling motions of thread being woven on a weaving machine is disclosed. The linear motor contains a stator (1) which produces a magnetic field, an armature (2) which is arranged in the magnetic field, and two flexible mounting parts (3) which are arranged parallel to one another in such a manner that the armature which is connected to the mounting parts is movable relative to the stator. The linear motor drives a member that can contact the thread and thereby influence its motion.
