[Problem to be Solved] To provide a knitting yarn holding device for a flatbed knitting machine that can hold a knitting yarn securely and with care to prevent it from dropping out. [Solution] A knitting yarn holding device 1, captures a knitting yarn 4 fed from a yarn feeder port 3 at an edge of a needle bed by moving a hook 5a forward and backward relative to a needle bed gap 2, and can clip and hold the knitting yarn 4, between side surfaces of a latching stop part 5b and of a supporting accept part 7a on the needle bed side, when the hook 5a is pulled in from the needle bed gap 2. To a cam groove 5c, a follower part 6c in the vicinity of a depressing part 6b installed at the head end of an elastic leg 6a being extended from a spacer 6 installed as a upper retainer of a hook bar 5 is fitted in, and the elastic leg 6a energizes the follower part 6c in the direction coming into contact with a cam face 5d. Pressing plates 7 are mounted on both sides of the spacer 6. On the needle bed gap 2 side of the pressing plate 7, a supporting accept part 7a is formed, which presses the hook 5a by pressing parts 7b from both sides of the portion holding the knitting yarn 4 to prevent the hook 5a from opening, and thereby holds the knitting yarn securely. |
