Cam apparatus for knitting fabric

摘要

On each of carriages are disposed a group of transfer cams and a group of receiving cams. A leftward movement of the carriages makes it possible to transfer a knitted loop from a front needle bed provided with one carnage to a rear needle bed provided with another carriage. A rightward movement of the carriages makes it possible to transfer the knitted loop from the rear needle bed provided with the other carriage to the front needle bed provided with one carriage. The transferring can be freely carried out between the needle beds, and it is possible to temporarily place a knitted loop from one needle bed to another needle bed and keep a holding, and further retain the knitted loop separately from a fabric being knitted on the other needle bed and when needed, return the knitted loop from the other needle bed to the one needle bed.
