dobby looms (looms (textile tools), <textile fabricating tools and equipment>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |

Note: Devices, both mechanized and manual, used to weave geometric and regular pattern sequences at a rapid rate by utilizing a dobby mechanism to control the warp threads. Similar to, but distinct from, Jacquard looms, these floor looms comprise a series of lattices into which pegs are inserted to facilitate the lifting of heald shafts in accordance with pre-established patterns. While Jacquard looms lift individual warp threads, dobby looms incorporate dobby mechanisms to simultaneously lift shafts or sets of shafts.
