Abstract

A device for affixing a shaft drive element to a loom warp beam shaft includes a clamping element having teeth, teeth at one end of the drive shaft and teeth on the drive element, and a displacement mechanism for sliding the clamping element and drive element on the drive shaft such that the clamping element teeth and the drive element teeth engage the drive shaft teeth. Upon sliding the drive and clamping elements over the drive shaft, the clamping and drive element teeth and the shaft teeth are mutually rotated to cause oppositely facing flanks on the drive and clamping element teeth to be pressed against corresponding flanks on the drive shaft teeth and thereby prevent relative rotation.
