Abstract
A fork-like clamp element is provided for a weft yarn clamp for use in a rapier loom. The fork-like clamp element includes a clamping tongue, a securing part for securement in a rapier giver or rapier taker and a presser opposite the securing part. The securing part includes a resiliently flexible zone so that upon movement of the presser towards the securing part, the zone is able to yield resiliently and, thus, allow the tongue to move away from an opposite clamp element for release of a weft yarn therebetween.
