Abstract
The invention relates to a card wheel for a knitting machine for manufacturing knit goods with combed-in fibers. The card wheel consists of a wheel body with a cylindrical circumferential surface and a card clothing situated and fixed on the latter, which contains a cloth band of appropriate width lying on the circumferential surface and hooks incorporated into the band. In accordance with the invention the cloth band has at least one lateral end a holding section free of hooks which runs along the entire circumferential surface. To fix the card clothing in place, a clamping means acting on the holding section is provided in accordance with the invention, which clamps the holding section with a pressure per unit area on the circumferential surface which prevents the cloth band from slipping.
