US Patent No. 3,047, granted April 15, 1843 to Clinton Gray Gilroy of New York, for a loom for weaving figured fabrics. It consists of eight sheets of patent drawings (Figs. 1-10) followed by the written specification and five claims. The loom combines a jacquard mounted above the frame with a front harness of eight leaves for twill or satin grounds. It also has sliding double cams that let the shuttle miss one pick while the jacquard card changes, a cylinder with adjustable rollers acting on the harness marches, a friction-strap warp tension device, and a weft/warp-break stop motion.
