Improved vibrator tube for eliminating waste (linter), for a knitting machine

摘要

An accessory for a knitting machine which utilises a flow of pressurised air through, and discharging from, multiple vibrator tubes for controlling the accumulation of waste. Each separate tube construction consists of an inner circular hole and a surrounding elliptical wall which produces the vibrating or pivoting movement in a specified path or plane, specifically in favour of the thinnest or finest walls of the tubes. This minimises the quantity of pressurised air discharge which may directed against specific positions where it is probable that waste will accumulate. <IMAGE>
