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.

A shed forming device for a weaving machine comprising motion systems consisting of hooks that are moveable up and down, transmission elements to transmit the hook motion to a carrier for warp threads, a first force element to exert a downward-directed force on the carrier, and an energy buffer and a second force element to exert a force on an element of the motion system that results in an upward-directed force on the carrier so that the element is so deformed or displaced that the elements of the motion system are kept under tension.
