Abstract
A shaft connecting device (18) having a thrust rod (8) and a lateral support (4) that fit into each other with minimal transverse play. In addition, the shaft connecting device (18) has a clamping device (16) with a stop arrangement (60, 60′, 66) and a fixation arrangement (30, 30′), the latter connecting the lateral support (4) and the thrust rod (8) exclusively on their respective upper ends to each other. Any opening, closing and adjusting of the connections between the thrust rod (8) and the lateral support (4) is possible in a particularly simple and convenient manner. The lateral support (4) and the thrust rod (8) support each other, thus resulting in a high dynamic load-bearing capacity. The overall design is simple, clear and cost-effective.
Claims22
Shaft connecting device for a heald shaft of a weaving machine, comprising:
- a lateral support which is vertically arranged during operation and which connects an upper shaft rod and a lower shaft rod to each other;
- a thrust rod, which has an upper free end with an end face, is arranged abutting against the lateral support and is connected with its lower end, during operation, to a drive moving back and forth, and;
- an adjustment means, which is associated with and arranged on the lateral support, for defining the height of the heald shaft with respect to the end face of the thrust rod, with said end face, when adjusting the height of the heald shaft, interacting with and being in contact with the adjustment means.
