Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the case of introduction during the production of knitwear, the production loom must be permanently monitored by a person, since the loom is paused when inserting additional elements, i.e. the manufacture of the knitwear is interrupted
The result is an increase in manpower

Embodiment Construction

[0034] figure 1 Shown is a schematic illustration of a detail of a flat knitting machine 100 known per se, with front and rear needle beds not shown here. Front and rear carriages 20 , 20 ′ move along these needle beds, on which carriages knitting cams 30 , 30 ′ are fastened.

[0035] The flat knitting machine 100 has a function for inserting the insert 70 ( Figure 4b ) device 10 inserted into a knitted fabric produced on a flat knitting machine, consisting of a storage box 40 for an insert 70 and a gripping mechanism 50 for an insert 70, the storage box is rigidly arranged here without Shown next to the left side of the needle bed.

[0036] The magazine 40 is designed for storage and delivery of inserts 70 , which can be stored in a magazine container 41 for this purpose and, if necessary, delivered by means of a conveying mechanism not shown in detail here. In this case, the delivery device can be used to reach a defined delivery position of the insert 70 . This defined...

Abstract

The invention relates to a flat knitting machine with a device for inserting an insert into a knitted fabric. The flat knitting machine comprises at least two needle beds and at least one carriage (20, 20') which can be moved along the needle beds, and a device (10) for inserting an insert (70) into a knitted fabric, wherein the device has a tank (40) for the insert (70) and a gripping device (50), by means of the grabbing mechanism, the insert (70) from the storage box (40) can be moved to comb tooth gaps (80) between the needle beds and can be inserted into knitted fabric manufactured on theflat knitting machine (100). At least the gripping mechanism (50) is arranged on the carriage (20, 20') or on a guide part of the carriage (20, 20'), and can be moved along the needle bed by means ofthe carriage (20, 20') or by means of a separate drive.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a flat knitting machine with a device for inserting an insert into a knitted fabric. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, ever-increasing demands are placed on knitted fabrics produced on flat knitting machines. In particular, more and more complex patterns and designs are required. Furthermore, the number of subsequent processes required after the knitting process is reduced. This is especially relevant for so-called smart textiles, which perform additional functions by integrating elements such as sensors, chips, batteries or LEDs. These inserts are currently mostly introduced manually into the knitwear during or after the production of the knitwear. [0003] In the case of introduction during the production of knitwear, however, the production loom must be permanently monitored by a person, since the weaving machine is paused when inserting additional elements, ie the production of the knitwear is interrupted. The res...
