Abstract
A clamping apparatus provides a releasable connection of a harness cord to a lifting heddle of a leno weave apparatus, wherein the releasable connection is configured as a clamping connection. The clamping apparatus has a clamping wedge and a wedge receiver device arranged at the end of the lifting heddle. The wedge receiver device displaceably receives the clamping wedge in the longitudinal direction of the lifting heddle. The harness cord is clampingly grippable between the wedge receiver device and the clamping wedge structure is provided for fixing the clamping wedge in the clamping receiver device.
Claims15
A clamping apparatus for a releasable connection of a harness cord to a lifting heddle of a leno weave apparatus and arranged at an end of the lifting heddle, comprising:
- a tapered clamping wedge having a tapering first contact surface angled with respect to a longitudinal direction of the lifting heddle;
- a wedge receiver device displaceably receiving the clamping wedge in the longitudinal direction of the lifting heddle, the wedge receiver device having a tapered internal second contact surface facing and receiving the first contact surface of the clamping wedge, a cord-receiving spacing being defined between the first contact surface and the second contact surface for receiving the harness cord, the clamping wedge being retained in the wedge receiver device;
- and
- the harness cord running between and being in contact with the first and second contact surfaces such that the harness cord is clampingly grippable between the first contact surface of the clamping wedge and the second contact surface of the wedge receiver device.
