Abstract
In a double-cylinder circular stocking knitting machine, an actuation element, composed of a slider and a sub-slider, is arranged, at least in the lower needle cylinder, below each needle, inside the same axial slot of the curved surface of the lower needle cylinder. The sub-slider has an actuation element provided with two heels which oscillates to assume a first, a second, or a third position, in which the heels assume different positions. A cam box is arranged around the curved surface of the needle cylinders and comprises a plurality of cams, which define paths for actuation of the sub-slider and of the overlying slider.
