German Reich patent no. 342088 for a hand loom by William Lane of Eastbourne, England, issued in 1921 on an application of 25 August 1920 with English priority from 1919. The loom is designed so that war-disabled people, including those with only one hand or no use of the feet, can weave. The beater is pulled back to its rear position by weights or springs, and the shafts are paired on rocker levers and moved by hand-operated cords with handles instead of treadles. The text describes the design and states one claim, and a line drawing of the loom appears on the last page.
