A device for varying stitch tightness for hosiery knitting machines, particularly for circular knitting machines, which comprises a movement adjuster connected to a slider that can slide in the cam box of the machine and supports a knockover cam of the machine. The movement adjuster comprises an actuator, connected to an adjustment cam and actuatable so as to turn the adjustment cam about its own axis through preset angles. The adjustment cam has a single external active profile, two cam followers being arranged on the slider to make contact with the active profile of the adjustment cam in two spaced points and cooperate in determining a bilateral coupling with the adjustment cam.

Device for varying stitch tightness for knitting machine for hosiery or the like, particularly for circular knitting machines

A thread gripping device, for gripping elastic thin thread, in a circular knitting machines, having a supporting element that supports thread guides proximate to a drop or feed, above the needle cylinder and proximate to the needle work area, and bearing at least one elastic lamina element and a thread locking lever pivoted to the supporting element and to rotate scissor-like to catch the thread with a grip portion between the locking lever and the elastic lamina element. The thread gripping region of the locking lever is made of a material with higher friction coefficient, than the remaining part of the locking lever.
