The invention discloses a tying mechanism for a hosiery circular knitting machine. The tying mechanism comprises an air valve seat, a suction port, an upper scissors mechanism, a thread guard mechanism, a thread pressing mechanism, a suction port thread guard mechanism and a thread clamping mechanism, wherein the above mechanisms are all mounted on a huff disc seat; disc scissors are arranged below the huff disc seat; and a huff disc is arranged below the disc scissors. the upper scissors mechanism mainly cooperate with the disc scissors for combined action; with the center point of the disc scissors as the circle point, under program control, the disc scissors rotate, and the upper scissors mechanism is fixed on the air valve seat and does not move; through mobile and static combination, a shearing force is generated to shear floating threads and redundant threads generated in the knitting process. By adopting the tying mechanism, the waste yarns and redundant threads shearing efficiency can be effectively improved, the machine fault rate is reduced, the maintenance cost is directly saved for users, and the production efficiency is greatly improved. The tying mechanism is simple in structure, and tidy and beautiful in appearance, can effectively improve the knitting efficiency of textiles, and ensures the appearance quality of the textiles.
