ABSTRACT:
A heddle frame for supporting a plurality of heddles includes a top rail and a bottom rail extending longitudinally relative to the frame. End members connect the top rail and bottom rail so as to form a generally rectangular frame structure. A center brace extends between the top rail and the bottom rail at a position between the end members. A locking clamp block is attached to the bottom rail. The clamp block defines a first section and a second section which is movable towards the bottom rail relative to the first section. The clamp block defines a threaded hole through the first and second sections. The portion of the threaded hole through the second section becomes misaligned when the second section is tightened or drawn in the direction of the bottom rail while the first section of the clamp block remains stationary. This misalignment of the threaded hole portions securely locks the center brace within the clamp block.
