Flat knitting machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a flat knitting machine. The flat knitting machine comprises a traction mechanism and a needle bed, wherein a plurality of inserting plates, spacer plates and sinkers are arranged on the needle bed; each sinker is arranged between the corresponding inserting plate and the corresponding spacer plate; butts are arranged at the rear ends of the sinkers; the traction mechanism drives the butts; each inserting plate is provided with an inserting plate protecting plate; each spacer plate is provided with a spacer plate protecting plate; and each inserting plate protecting plate and the corresponding spacer plate protecting plate are positioned on two sides of the corresponding butt to limit the corresponding butt from laterally moving and deviating from a movement plane of the butt. Deformation or damage of the butts due to pushing, traction and the like can be avoided.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of knitting machinery, in particular to a flat knitting machine. 【Background technique】 [0002] The flat knitting machine is a double-needle plate latch weft knitting machine. The cam device on the needle bed is like a set of flat cams. The stitches of the knitting needles can enter the grooves of the cams, and the moving cam forces the needles in the needle grooves of the needle bed. Regular up and down movements, the yarn can be woven into a knitted fabric through the action of the needle hook and the needle latch. When the knitting needle is rising, the coil gradually withdraws from the needle hook, opens the needle latch, and withdraws from the needle latch to hang on the needle bar. When the knitting needle is falling, the needle hook catches the newly placed yarn and pulls and bends it into a loop. At the same time, the original loop comes out of the needle hook, and the new loop passes through the...

Problems solved by technology

Since the heel of the sinker is slender and thin-walled, and all of it is suspended from the insert and spacer, when the heel is subjected to the action of the traction mechanism, the heel is easily bent and deformed, or even damaged and broken, resulting in The sinker mechanism is stuck, making it difficult or even impossible for the flat knitting machine to work
