Abstract
The draw-off mechanism for a flat bar knitting machine having needle beds includes a pair of driven feed rollers arranged axially parallel to each other and located adjacent to the needle beds under a gap between the needle beds; a pair of pivoting levers, each pivoting lever being two-armed and having a feed roller mounted at one end thereof and an adjustable stop device for setting a minimum spacing between the feed rollers located at another end of each pivoting lever remote from the feed rollers; and a device for adjusting an initial tension on at least one of the pivoting levers to urge the pivoting levers closer together, so that the driven feed rollers can cooperate with each other and act on a workpiece running between them.
