Controlled jet injection apparatus for a papermaking machine headbox
 In a papermaking machine, a method and mechanism for delivering stock to a dewatering web including a pressure headbox with a narrowing slice opening, a receiving throat either with a single traveling forming wire or a pair of traveling forming wires, bridging the space between the headbox opening and the wire so that the stock jet is contained without a free surface, and applying a trailing flexible element opposite the stock in a single wire machine or against one wire in a twin wire machine with the force and location of the trailing element controlled by a series of push rods arranged parallel in a cross machine direction.
