Abstract
A device for dispensing at least one thread at a feed or drop of a circular machine for knitting hosiery or the like, particularly for single-cylinder circular machines. The device comprises at least one thread guide which is arranged at a feed or drop of a circular machine for knitting hosiery or the like and has an end for dispensing a thread which laterally faces the needle cylinder proximate to its upper end, in the needle work area of the machine. The thread guide can controllably move with respect to the needle cylinder for shifting its thread dispensing end along a path which has a component which is substantially parallel to the tangent, located in a plane which is substantially perpendicular to the axis of the needle cylinder, to the needle cylinder in a region at which it is arranged.
