A single- or double-knit circular knitting machine having a cylinder () equipped with cylinder needles and/or a dial equipped with dial needles for the production of single- or double-jersey knitted webs, which machine has at least one thread-selection device, threads being able to be supplied to any cylinder- and/or dial needle by the thread-selection device.

Circular knitting machine

In a method and a knitting machine for the production of knitting goods with horizontal stripe a comparatively wide thread changing device having a plurality of thread fingers can be associated with two knitting points in such a manner that a first portion of the threads guided by the thread changing device can be fed to one knitting point and another portion of the threads can be fed to the other knitting point or to the knitting tools respectively moved there into a thread pick-up position.

Method and knitting machine for the production of knitted goods with horizontal stripe patterns

A circular knitting machine for the production of an opened fabric tube comprises a needle cylinder (), a frame (), which is coupled to the needle cylinder () and in which at least a draw-off roller () and/or a take-up roller (), drive means (to) to drive said roller, and a blade () intended for opening the fabric tube are each rotatably mounted, and a flexible shaft (), which is rigidly connected to the blade () and a drive wheel (), for setting the blade () in rotation at a rotational speed dependent on the knitting speed. According to the invention, the drive wheel () of the flexible shaft () is functionally connected (FIG.) to the drive means (to) for the draw-off and/or take-up roller ().

Circular knitting machine with a rotatable blade for cutting a fabric tube

The invention relates to a circular knitting machine with a replaceable needle cylinder (). According to the invention, two or more eccentrics () are disposed to be rotatable in a support ring () for the needle cylinder () or in the needle cylinder itself, and serve the purpose of lifting the needle cylinder () out of a normal operating position into a mounting position enabling it to be pulled out laterally, in which an underside of said needle cylinder () is arranged at least to be flush with an upper edge of attachments () attached to the support ring () or elsewhere (FIG.).

Circular knitting machine with a replaceable needle cylinder

A knitting machine is described, which includes at least one carrier provided with knitting tools (), a cam mechanism with at least one knitting point () for moving selected knitting tools () into a yarn pick-up position and a striping attachment for feeding selected yarns to the knitting tools () brought into the yarn pick-up position. According to the invention, the striping attachment has at least one first and one second yarn changing device () such that yarns () fed optionally by the first or the second yarn changing device () may be laid into the knitting tools () brought into the yarn pick-up position at the knitting point () (FIG.).

Knitting machine with at least one striping attachment

A circular knitting machine is described which has a needle cylinder (), at least one cylinder cam segment (), a dial arrangement () having a dial () and at least one dial cam segment (), an axis of rotation (), which is coaxial with the needle cylinder () and the dial arrangement (), and at least one thread guide element () intended to guide a thread (). The cylinder cam segment () together with the thread guide element (), and the dial cam segment () are rotatable about the rotational axis () relative to one another. The needle cylinder (), and the dial arrangement () together with the thread guide () are moreover disposed displaceable relative to one another and parallel to the rotational axis (). According to the invention, the thread guide element () is mounted moveable on the cylinder cam segment () (FIG.).

Circular knitting machine having at least one moveable thread guide

The invention relates to a circular knitting machine with a protective cover () at least partially surrounding a take down and/or winding up device () on the outside. The cover () which includes a guide fixed on the machine frame and segments (to) movably mounted on this. In accordance with the invention the segments (to) are so arranged at different radial distances from a machine axis () that they are movable relative to one another at least partially with mutual overlapping.

Circular knitting machine and protective device therefor

A circular knitting machine with a frame ( ) having a plurality of feet ( ), a needle carrier ( ), a cam box ring and a take-down and/or winding-up device ( ) mounted in the frame ( ), wherein at least one of the feet ( ) is adjustable for altering the machine width.

A sinker ( ) for a knitting machine operating according to the relative technique is described. The sinker ( ) contains a front ( ), a back ( ), a head ( ) arranged on one end and having a sinker throat ( ) and a knock-over edge ( ), a control butt ( ) intended to make possible movements in a longitudinal direction (v) and protruding from the front ( ), and at least one rocking element ( ) designed to make possible pivot movements transverse to the longitudinal direction (v) and provided on the front ( ). According to the invention, the sinker ( ) also has a spring element ( ) intended to compensate for manufacturing inaccuracies, acting transverse to the longitudinal direction (v) (FIG. ). A knitting machine equipped with such a sinker ( ) is also described.

A circular knitting machine with support disk ( ) and a needle cylinder ( ) fixed onto it with screws is described. According to the invention, an intermediate ring ( ), elastically deformable in the radial direction, is arranged between support disk ( ) and needle cylinder ( ), through which the stresses that develop from different heat expansions are avoided between these two components.

A roller (,) for guiding knitwear produced on a knitting machine, with at least one stub shaft (,) of reduced cross-section projecting to the side of a middle part (,) and at least one first adjusting ring (,) which can be fixed on the stub shaft (,) to form an annular gap is described. The adjusting ring (,) has a first axial end (,) with an outer diameter corresponding to the outer diameter of the middle part (,) and a second axial end (,) associated with the annular gap (,). In accordance with the invention the adjusting ring (,) is assembled from at least two shells (,) adjoining one another along butt joints (FIG.,).
