The invention mainly relates to a horizontal knitting
machine. The horizontal knitting
machine comprises a main rack, a needle
selection system, a sliding rail
assembly, a
machine head part, a shuttlepart, a
yarn cutting device and a finger splitting
system, wherein the needle
selection system comprises a roller mechanism, two rollers of the roller mechanism are driven by an independent driving device, the sliding rail
assembly is arranged above the needle
selection system, the machine head part is arranged on the sliding rail
assembly, the machine head part comprises a front machine head assembly and a rear machine head assembly, the driving device is in linkage connection with the front machine head assembly and the rear machine head assembly through a transmission assembly, so that thefront machine head assembly and the rear machine head assembly achieve horizontal
reciprocating motion on the sliding rail assembly, the upper end of the machine head part is provided with a shuttleassembly, the shuttle assembly is intermittently driven by the machine head part, the
yarn cutting device is connected with the independent driving device for driving, and the finger splitting systemcomprises a fork knife part and a scissors part. The horizontal knitting machine has the advantages that the structure is simple, the horizontal knitting machine is portable and flexible, the operating load is low, the
energy consumption is low, the transmission and weaving efficiency is improved, and the maintenance and debugging are convenient, and
economic benefits of enterprises is increased.
