Embodiment Construction

[0050]Refer initially to FIGS. 1, 1A, and 1B which illustrate a loom 20, embodying the invention, for producing a woven fabric 22 diagrammatically illustrated in FIG. 1. Although the present invention will be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be embodied in many alternate forms or embodiments. In addition, any suitable size, shape or type of elements or materials could be used.

[0051]The loom 20 is size-non-adjustable and includes a first elongated beam 24 having upper and lower surfaces 26, 28 and a second elongated beam 30 having upper and lower surfaces 32, 34 parallel to and spaced from the first beam 24. A first transverse roller 36 has a first longitudinal axis 38 and is rotatably mounted on and extends between the first and second beams 24, 30. In similar fashion, a second transverse roller 40 has a second longitudinal axis 42 and is parallel to and spaced from the first transverse roller 3...

Abstract

A loom that includes a first elongated beam having upper and lower surfaces; a second elongated beam having upper and lower surfaces parallel to and spaced from the first beam; a first transverse roller having a first longitudinal axis rotatably mounted on and extending between the first and second beams; a second transverse roller having a second longitudinal axis parallel to and spaced from the first transverse roller rotatably mounted on and extending between the first and second beams; each transverse roller having a peripheral surface formed with a plurality of equally sized and spaced annular grooves, each groove lying in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of its associated roller; and a disk-shaped thumb wheel having a textured peripheral edge surface fixed to each roller with a center aligned with the longitudinal axis of the roller.

Description

RELATED CASES[0001]Priority for this application is hereby claimed under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to commonly owned and co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 881,003 which was filed on Jan. 18, 2007 which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates in general to a loom of simplified design which can be operated by a user in a small setting, for example, on a table or on the user's lap.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]The prior art shows a number of loom constructions. Examples are found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,166,415 to Lervad; 4,103,715 to Harris and 6,453,951 to Kuwabara. Many of the past looms are rather complicated in construction and are thus difficult to operate. Other looms are limited in the size of the fabric that can be woven. Still others require a constant re-positioning of the user in order to continue with the weaving process. Still further looms do not provide an easy way to manipulate the loom action, ...
