US Patent 3,999,578 (granted 28 December 1976 to Karol Kulczycki, assigned to Barber-Colman Company) describes a triaxial fabric weaving machine. Elongate heddles guide the warp strands and move longitudinally in passageways to form sheds. Between sheds, movable heddle-shifting bars move the heddles weftwise from one passageway to another, so the warp strands run obliquely to the wefts. The document has the USPTO web database printout (abstract, claims, description) and the original patent print with three sheets of drawings showing racks, cams, linkages and drive shafts.
