A short dictionary entry defining the shuttle-box, the tray or compartment at the end of a shuttle-race that receives the shuttle. It also describes the multiple-box form holding shuttles of differently colored threads, which are raised or lowered to the picker according to a pattern-chain. An illustrated example (Fig. 5057) shows the mechanism of levers, cams, ratchet and pawl in a figure-weaving loom.
