PERFECCIONAMIENTOS EN MAQUINAS TRICOTOSAS.

摘要

For reading or memorizing a pattern perforated in rows in a card, pattern-reading members having pointed ends in a row are successively fed from a first to an arbitrarily selectable last row of the irregular perforations making up the pattern. The thus memorized pattern is conveyed to needle-selecting members including pattern plates which have projections formed at constant spacings thereon. Some of the pattern plates associated with those of the pattern-reading members which correspond to the perforations in each row are operated to select needles that are required for the knitting operation in accordance with the pattern, the selected needles being urged to their operative positions by the projections on the pattern plates.
