Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of flat knitting machines, and particularly relates to a knitting needle. BACKGROUND

[0002] The flat knitting machine is a machine for knitting by using a transverse needle bed, and a plurality of knitting needles are clamped in the needle slots of the needle plates on both sides of the flat knitting machine. The knitting needles are used to knit yarn into loops and connect the loops into a knitted fabric in a nested manner. The structure and shape of the knitting needles affect the knitting process, the productivity of the knitting machine, and the quality of the product, and are important basis for the design of the knitting machine. The knitting loop process is to transfer a needle to another needle to change the fabric structure in various styles, such as tucking, twisting, lifting, and picking. The needle turning spring plays a crucial role in these processes. The needle turning spring is composed of a fixed section and a needle turning section. Currently, the needle turning section mostly adopts an arch-shaped structure. This structure makes the needle turning section higher than the knitting needle, which occupies a larger space in the needle slot. It cannot adapt to the knitting of complex loops, and the needle turning section of this structure is prone to missing needles during loop transfer, thereby causing defects in the fabric.

[0003] At present, there are studies on the arch-shaped structure of the needle turning section, which leads to a large space occupied by the knitting needle in the needle slot and the phenomenon of missing needles during loop transfer, such as CN111793885A, a knitting needle. It expands the loop by rotating the protrusion outward through the elastic deformation of the deformation surface, solving the problem of the arch-shaped structure of the needle turning section, which leads to a large space occupied by the knitting needle in the needle slot and the phenomenon of "single silk" during loop transfer. However, the existing needle turning section structure can only ensure that the knitting needle does not occupy the space in the needle slot, but it is difficult to effectively control the supporting force of the needle turning section, which is prone to collapse of the needle turning piece, thereby seriously affecting the efficiency of loop knitting. Therefore, a new technical solution is needed to solve the above technical problems. SUMMARY

The purpose is to solve the problem of lack of support due to the gap between the needle plate and the needle bar 1 of the flat knitting machine when the needle is turned over, and effectively avoid the problem of needle bar 1 shaking and unstable when the needle is turned over, which causes the needle to miss.

[0064] One end of the fixed section G27 is fixed with a rivet 6 and is fixed in a fixed groove 7 at the back of the needle bar 1, and the other end of the fixed section G27 is integrally formed with the head of the horizontal section 281;

[0065] The needle bar 1 is provided with a needle turning table 8 at the needle turning position, which is located in the front of the fixed groove 7 and is used for needle turning, and the side edge of the needle turning table 8 is provided with a bevel structure, and the front of the needle turning table 8 is provided with a limiting groove 9 for preventing the tail of the needle turning section from moving, and the lowest end of the limiting groove 9 is in contact with the tail of the curved section 282.

[0066] The working principle and use process of the embodiment are as follows: Figure 7 After the knitting needle is assembled, the operator installs the knitting needle on the flat knitting machine (the functions and structures of the flat knitting machine and other conventional equipment are well known in the art, and the connection setting is also well known, so no further description is given here, and the flat knitting machine is not shown in the drawings), which aims to improve the support force of the needle turning section and solve the problem of sagging due to insufficient support force of the needle turning spring. Not only can the knitting needle be more stable and reliable when knitting loops, but also the needle turning section can have flexible deformation outward, improving the applicability of the knitting needle, so that the yarn can be more stably looped and transferred under the knitting of the knitting needle, ensuring the effect and efficiency of loop knitting.

[0067] When the knitting needle needs to knit a loop, the operator needs to select the appropriate needle plate according to the stitch density required for knitting, then place several knitting needles in the selected needle plate needle groove, and then adjust the required knitting needles according to the length of the knitting, then use the knitter on the flat knitting machine to knit the yarn through the knitting needles adjusted out of the side needle plate of the flat knitting machine, then place the looped yarn at the needle turning position of the needle bar 1 through the knitter, then use the needle turning head on the knitter to insert the needle head of the knitting needle on the other side needle plate of the flat knitting machine into the curved section 282 of the knitting needle adjusted out of the side needle plate from the bevel structure and extend into the looped yarn placed at the needle turning position of the needle bar 1, then use the knitter to move the needle head of the knitting needle on the other side needle plate of the flat knitting machine from the head of the curved section 282 to the tail of the curved section 28, and then from the tail of the curved section 28 to the needle hook of the knitting needle on the side needle plate, until the loop is transferred to the needle hook of the needle head on the other side needle plate, that is, the loop transfer operation is completed.
