Embodiment Construction

[0020] FIG. 1 schematically shows a schematic configuration of a flat knitting machine 11 as an embodiment of the present invention. In the flat knitting machine 11 , the carriage 13 can reciprocate along the longitudinal direction of the needle bed 12 to knit the knitted fabric 14 . One or more sets of cam mechanisms 15 are mounted on the cam carriage 13 , and needle selection drivers 16 are respectively arranged at the front and rear of the cam mechanism 15 in the moving direction. On the cam carriage 13, there is also a reset cam 17 that returns each knitting needle to the initial state before the needle selection driver 16 selects the needle. The unevenness of the needle selector 11a installed in parallel with the needle bed 12 on the flat knitting machine 11 is detected by the position sensor 18 as a carriage position detection unit mounted on the carriage 13, and the obtained signal is processed to obtain The position of the carriage 13 is calculated. FIG. 2 of Patent ...

Abstract

The present invention provides a needle selecting device and a flat knitting machine, which can select needles in shiftable flat knitting machine in shift, such that knitting efficiency is improved. A position sensor (18) mounted on a carriage (13) detects concave and convex of a needle selecting meter (11a) arranged in parallel with a needle bed (12), detected signal is processed to calculate out position of the carriage (13). The needle bed (12) can move left and right as indicated by the arrowhead in the attached drawing by a transmission mechanism (19). A controller can detects out changed position of the needle bed (12) caused by moving relative with the flat knitting machine (11) when controlling the transmission mechanism (19). The position of the moved needle bed (12) caused by moving relative with the carriage (13) can be calculated by combining the position of the carriage (13) relative with the flat knitting machine (11) and changed position of the needle bed (12) caused by moving relative with the flat knitting machine (11), such that the needle selecting driver can be controlled to select needles.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a flat knitting machine for selecting knitting needles when knitting knitted fabrics by using a cam mechanism mounted on a cam carriage to drive knitting needles. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in a flat knitting machine, a plurality of knitting needles are arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction of the needle bed, and the cam carriage is reciprocated in the longitudinal direction, and the knitting needles are driven by a cam mechanism mounted on the cam carriage to knit. knitted fabric. The knitting action of the knitting needle driven by the cam mechanism includes three basic actions of knitting, tucking and floating. When the knitting needles perform the knitting action, the front and rear needle beds are facing each other, and the transfer between the knitting needles of the front and rear needle beds, and the relative lateral movement of the front and rear needle beds, that is, transfer,...
