Abstract

A weaving machine for the manufacture of leno cloths includes a leno apparatus with leno elements (5, 5′, 7, 7′, 8, 8′) for the forming of a shed (6) as well as additionally a cleaning apparatus with a plurality of nozzles (10.1, 10.2, 11, 13) for the removal of contaminations in the region of the leno apparatus and of the shed (6). Two of the nozzles (10.1, 10.2) are arranged above the shed, by means of which a compressed air flow (16.1-16.4) which is directed downwardly through the shed (6) from above is produced, and one of the nozzles (11) is arranged in the lower region of the leno elements, by means of which a compressed air flow (17) which is directed substantially horizontally towards the leno elements (5, 5′, 7, 7′, 8, 8′) is produced. In addition, a suction nozzle (13) by means of which a downwardly directed suction air flow (19) is produced is arranged beneath the shed.
