The flyers pass through these holes, and the legs serve as guides to the is to take up the slack of the yarn. The spindles have each a groove in their lower parts, adaptedto elide into the recesses of the tables when the recesses coincide. The platform E E has circularcavities for the lower ends of the spindles. FF, Fig. 2252, are fast and loose pulleys to drive the HEDDLES. 15 shaft G. A bevel-wheel H, on G, gives motion to the revolving spool-tables by toothed wheels, as seenat Fig.

A bevel-wheel H, on G, gives motion to the revolving spool-tables by toothed wheels, as seenat Fig. 2255. The bevel-wheel I, Fig. 2252, gives motion to the heddle-beams by geering into J, onthe shaft K. This shaft carries a worm-wheel, which geers into M to drive A. N is an eccentric on K 2353. rjEirix. to vibrate g, a shipper, which shifts the spindles from one table to another; the opposite ends of goperate on two pairs of tables. A connecting-rod with N vibrates the shippers. N is connected with K,and turns with it by clutch-pins, and when these are not engaged the shafts turn without N. i i, , is a pin that passes through N, projecting out above and below, nearly in contact with K.
