Jacquard (English spelling)

Japanese: ジャカード(英語表記)jacquard
Jacquard (English spelling)
A machine used in patterned weaving, and the fabric produced using it. They are also called jacquard machines and jacquard weaving, respectively. A jacquard machine can raise each heald (a machine that divides the warp threads into upper and lower threads to make it easier to insert the weft threads) one by one, and uses pattern paper to freely raise the warp threads and create a shuttle. This allows any weave or pattern to be woven. It was invented by the Frenchman Jacquard and exhibited at the 1801 Industrial Exhibition in Paris. Since then, it has become possible to automatically weave patterned weaving, which was previously extremely labor-intensive, and produce patterned fabrics cheaply. Examples of fabrics made using this machine include patterned crepe, patterned habutae, patterned satin, and donsu.
