Abstract
A heald frame comprises two lateral supports which each have a projecting portion (2) which is received in a recess (3) at the end of a frame stave (4). A wedge (9) is mounted in the frame stave (4) within the recess (3) so that it is closer to the heald-carrying rod. A surface (11) of the wedge (9) is inclined towards the end of the frame stave (4) and cooperates with a correspondingly inclined surface (6) at the lower side of the projecting portion (2). The surfaces are pressed together by means of a clamping screw (8) which presses on the opposite surface of the projecting portion (2). The lateral support (1) is pulled against the frame stave (4) as a result of the engagement of the inclined surfaces of the wedge and projecting portion.
