Abstract
A latch needle for a textile machine. The latch needle has a latch which is displaceable in a longitudinal slot of a needle shank and is pivotally mounted by means of a continuous bearing bore on a one-piece, cylindrical shaft bolt which is inserted into corresponding coaxial bores of needle shank cheeks on either side of the longitudinal slot and is fixed therein so as to be secure against displacement. The length of the shaft bolt is less than the thickness of the needle shank along the pivot axis. The outwardly oriented, free frontal faces of the shaft bolt lie in the depth of the bores of the needle shank cheeks. Fixing elements for the shaft bolt are shaped of the material of the needle shank cheeks in the vicinity of the free frontal faces of the shaft bolt.
