Circular knitting machine for e.g. glove, has device making racking of mesh on individually selected needle on needle beds, and cylinders displaced for making to and fro and shifting movements and distributed on work zones

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The machine has two mobile cylinders (2, 3) each carrying a needle bed, where each bed supports a needle assembly (6, 7). A device makes a racking of mesh on an individually selected needle on two needle beds at each portion. The cylinders are displaced together, in an angular manner for making to and fro and shifting movements opposite to fixed cuts (12, 13). An individual selection mechanism individually selects all the needles. The cylinders are distributed in independent work zones with cutting, gripping and wire supply mechanisms, for delivering wires according to active needles. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Used in textile industry, for knitting multitubular articles e.g. glove, according to weft stitch technique. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The machine permits to fabricate gloves without stitching in a rapid manner, thus ensuring high productivity. The device permits to change the size of the glove to be produced without mechanical intervention. The racking of the mesh ensures good resistance to the glove. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a simplified general perspective view of a circular knitting machine. 2, 3 : Mobile cylinders 6, 7 : Needle assembly 12, 13 : Fixed cuts 16 : Modules 17 : Immovable peripheral rails.
