Abstract
In a multi-feed small-diameter circular knitting machine provided with needles, jacks and selectors, the selector raising cams have a smaller height than the jack cams, so that the selectors return to their selection position while the jacks are still descending. The selectors and jacks therefore move independently after an initial raising by the selectors acting on the jacks. The selectors move within a cylinder trick portion which lies at a greater distance from the cylinder axis than the trick portion within which the needle and jacks move, and comprise an appendix extending towards the cylinder for engaging the jacks. The machine can have a larger number of selection positions than known machines for the same needle circle diameter and fineness.
