<p>The device is associated to a flat knitting machine that includes a carriage (3) movable in a horizontal direction over a pair of needle beds (4) featuring a series of grooves wherein there are respective needles set so that they can slide. The carriage is also equipped with a small anchor (5) that is made movable in vertical directions, and that has the task of trailing a slide (7) in both movement directions (A,R) of the carriage. The slide (7) holds a yarn carrier (2), and is mounted slidingly on a bar (6) that overlies, and is parallel to, the needle beds. The slide (7) is equipped with locking means respectively mounted at both opposed extremities, which are designed for blocking the slide (7) to the bar (6). Furthermore the slide (7) is equipped with means (16) for controlling the motion of the yarn carrier between a vertical working position and a sloping position each time opposite to the current respective movement direction (A,R) so as to make the working zone accessible from outside. <IMAGE></p> |
