Abstract
A device for the selectively controllable mutual displacement of yarn guides of flat-bed knitting machines has a plurality of electromagnets fixed against motion on a carriage unit, to each one of which a mutual displacement device is controllably assigned, the mutual displacement finger of which can be brought into and out of contact with at least one associated yarn guide box of a yarn guide, movable parallel to a needle bed unit along yarn guide rails. In order to make the transfer of motion from the electromagnet to the mutual displacement finger more rapid and independent of the direction of motion of the carriage unit in such a device for the selectively controllable mutual displacement of yarn guides of flat-bed knitting machines, it has been provided that the electromagnet be surrounded by a frame element, from the center of one end of which the mutual displacement finger protrudes in the direction of movement and the other end of which can be acted upon by an armature rod of the associated electromagnet, and that the frame element is supported in a longitudinally movable manner on its two side legs.
