Abstract
A heddle frame () is driven via drive rods (), which pass through its lateral sampsons (). To that end, the lateral sampsons () each have a corresponding channel (). The play between the circumferential face () of the drive rods () and the channel wall face () of the respective channel () has an intermediate layer (), which extends over the full length, or portions, of the drive rod (). The intermediate layer () preferably comprises an impact-proof, permanent-elastic, damping material. A slight residual play allows the introduction of the drive rods () and the intermediate layer () into the channel () without force.
