Abstract

A needling loom comprising needles actuated in reciprocating motion between a retracted position and a maximum penetration position through a stripping plate, a textile web to be consolidated, and a needling loom table. The stripping plate and the needling loom table bear rails and elements for rapid assembling and disassembling for either pressing the rails against fixed crosspieces for the needling loom to operate, or for releasing the pressure and cause the rails to rest on rollers for extracting and inserting the stripping plate and the table by simple transverse sliding in the passage direction of the web. The invention is useful for reducing the time for assembling and disassembling machine components such as the stripping plate and a needling loom table for maintenance operations, in particular cleaning operations.
