<p>The knitting machine with needle selection device has a plurality of needles or sub-needles (5) each having a body with at least one magnetized portion. A selection element (10) faces the magnetized portion and is constituted by a plate which is physically separate from the body of the needle or sub-needle (5) and is made of a material which can be magnetized. The selection device has a magnetizing device (14) which acts controllably upon the selection element (10) of the various needles or sub-needles (5) in order to induce a magnetic interaction between the magnetized portion of the body of the needle or sub-needle (5) and the selection element (10) itself. Actuation cams (17,18) act on the body of the needle or sub-needle (5), after the action of the magnetizing device, and cause a diversified actuation of the needle or sub-needle (5) depending on the magnetic interaction induced between the portion of the body of the needle or sub-needle (5) and the selection element (10). <IMAGE></p> |
