Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of computerized flat knitting machines, and particularly to a high-efficiency flat knitting machine shank and knitting method. Background Technology
[0002] In current flat knitting machines, the return cam is used to reset the spring needle. During each row of knitting, the spring needle needs to be reset by the return cam. After resetting, the spring needle needs to be pushed to position A by the needle selector or the A-position cam to continue participating in needle turning and knitting. Therefore, the unnecessary reset of the spring needle increases the workload of the needle selector and the A-position cam, reducing the service life of the needle selector. Furthermore, the cam plate needs to move to the outside and then return each time to allow time for the A-position cam to move, which greatly increases the knitting time of each row and reduces work efficiency. Under long-term operation, the motor response of the A-position cam may decrease, resulting in a delay in the movement of the A-position cam, which can easily lead to misaligned needles, greatly reducing the quality and knitting effect of the fabric. At the same time, it accelerates the wear of the A-position cam and the spring needle, greatly increasing the failure rate and raising production and maintenance costs. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a high-efficiency knitting flat knitting machine shank and knitting method, which greatly shortens the stroke of the shank, reduces the frequency of use of the A-position starting triangle, reduces the occurrence of tangled needles, and not only has a low failure rate and less wear, but also high knitting efficiency.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention discloses a high-efficiency flat knitting machine shank, comprising a triangular base plate, an H-position knitting unit, a return needle triangle, and a gauge triangle. The return needle triangles are in pairs and disposed on the triangular base plate. The H-position knitting unit is disposed between the return needle triangles, and the gauge triangle is disposed between the return needle triangle and the H-position knitting unit.
[0005] The H-position knitting unit includes a first pressure plate, a second pressure plate, and a third pressure plate that are sequentially slidably disposed on the triangular base plate at the H-position. The first pressure plate, the second pressure plate, and the third pressure plate are driven by a pressure plate driving device to retract the first pressure plate, the second pressure plate, and the third pressure plate synchronously retracting into the triangular base plate so that the knitting needle can perform knitting action at the H-position.
[0006] A needle selector is provided at the lower part of the triangular base plate between the return needle triangle and the measuring needle triangle. The center line of the needle selector is the end point of the first needle path. A B-position reset triangle is provided at the lower edge of the return needle triangle. The center line of the B-position reset triangle is the end point of the second needle path. When the needle travels to the end point of the first needle path or the end point of the second needle path, the triangular base plate returns accordingly.
[0007] Furthermore, the tablet pressing drive device is fixedly installed on the rear side of the triangular base plate, and a tablet pressing push plate is slidably disposed on the tablet pressing drive device. The tablet pressing push plate is orthogonally slidingly engaged with the first tablet, the second tablet, and the third tablet, so that the tablet pressing drive device drives the tablet pressing push plate to move in conjunction with the first tablet, the second tablet, and the third tablet.
[0008] Furthermore, the tablet pusher plate is provided with a first push groove, a second push groove, and a third push groove corresponding to the first tablet, the second tablet, and the third tablet, respectively, and the first tablet, the second tablet, and the third tablet are respectively provided with sliding shafts that slide in cooperation with the first push groove, the second push groove, and the third push groove.
[0009] Furthermore, both the first push groove and the third push groove include a first straight groove portion, a second straight groove portion, and a first inclined groove portion disposed between the first straight groove portion and the second straight groove portion;
[0010] The second push groove includes a third straight groove portion and a first short groove portion and a second short groove portion respectively disposed at both ends of the third straight groove portion, and a second inclined groove portion is disposed between the first short groove portion and the second short groove portion and the third straight groove portion respectively.
[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the triangular base plate is provided with an A-position starting triangle that can be extended and retracted. A starting drive device for driving the A-position starting triangle to extend or retract into the triangular base plate is fixedly installed on the rear side of the triangular base plate. An A-position needle track is provided above the H-position knitting unit, and an H-position starting triangle is provided at the bottom of the triangular base plate below the needle selector.
[0012] This invention also provides a knitting method for the camber of a high-efficiency flat knitting machine, wherein the knitting of the same rows and columns includes the following steps:
[0013] S101. The first, second, and third tablets are driven to retract synchronously into the triangular base plate by the tablet pressing drive device, and the needle starting drive device drives the needle starting triangle at position A to retract into the triangular base plate at the same time.
[0014] S102, the machine head drives the triangular base plate to move to the right, and pushes the needle assembly to the H-position knitting unit through the H-position starting triangle, so that the needle assembly completes the knitting work along the knitting track;
[0015] S103. When the first needle path of the needle selector in the triangular base plate reaches the last needle assembly, the machine head drives the triangular base plate back, so that the needle assembly continues to complete the knitting action of the next row along the H-position knitting unit.
[0016] This invention also provides a knitting method for the camber of a high-efficiency flat knitting machine, wherein different knitting operations in the upper and lower rows include the following steps:
[0017] S104. The first, second, and third tablets are driven to retract synchronously into the triangular base plate by the tablet pressing drive device, and the needle starting drive device drives the needle starting triangle at position A to retract into the triangular base plate.
[0018] S105. The machine head drives the triangular base plate to move to the right, and pushes the needle assembly to the H-position knitting unit through the H-position starting triangle, so that the needle assembly completes the knitting work along the knitting track.
[0019] S106 When the second needle path of the B-position reset triangle in the triangular base plate reaches the last needle assembly, the machine head drives the triangular base plate to return, so that the needle assembly completes the needle turning, needle joining, knitting, hanging, or non-knitting actions along the needle path at position A, the knitting unit at position H, or the non-knitting pressure plate at position B.
[0020] Furthermore, in S103, the pressing device drives the turning cam to extend out of the cam base plate, and the starting cam drives the A-position starting cam to extend out of the cam base plate. The A-position starting cam pushes the knitting needle assembly to the A-position needle path, so that the knitting needle assembly completes the turning cam action along the turning cam trajectory.
[0021] Furthermore, in S103, the first and third pressure plates are driven by the pressure plate driving device to extend out of the triangular base plate, so that the needle assembly completes the needle receiving action along the needle receiving trajectory.
[0022] Furthermore, in S103, the second pressure plate is driven to extend out of the triangular base plate by the pressure plate driving device, so that the knitting needle assembly completes the hanging movement along the hanging track.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0024] In this invention, the mountain board selects different weaving modes according to different fabrics. It uses the H-position weaving unit and the A-position starting cam to enter the pure weaving mode. Furthermore, the travel of the mountain board is controlled according to whether the up and down rows are the same or different, which greatly saves working time. At the same time, it reduces the frequency of use of the A-position starting cam, reduces its failure rate and wear, avoids the occurrence of tangled needles, and effectively improves work efficiency.

[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a high-efficiency flat knitting machine shank includes a triangular base plate 1, an H-position knitting unit 2, a return cam 3, a gauge cam 4, and a disc shank 5. The return cam 3 are a pair and are disposed on the triangular base plate 1. The H-position knitting unit 2 is disposed between the return cam 3. The gauge cam 4 is disposed above the return cam 3 and the H-position knitting unit 2. The disc shank 5 is disposed between the gauge cam 4. A needle selector is disposed on the lower part of the triangular base plate 1 between the return cam 3 and the gauge cam 4. In this embodiment, the triangular base plate 1 is slidably disposed on the needle plate. The needle plate has several needle grooves along its length, and knitting needle assemblies are inserted into the needle grooves. The machine head drives the triangular base plate 1 to reciprocate along the needle plate, thereby using the triangular base plate 1 to drive the knitting needle assemblies in the needle plate to move.
[0039] The bottom of the triangular base plate 1 is provided with an H-position starting triangle below the needle selector, which is used to push the knitting needle assembly to the H-position knitting unit 2.
[0040] In this embodiment, the needle assembly and needle selector are existing structures. The needle assembly consists of needles, long needles, spring needles, and needle selectors, which will not be described again here.
[0041] Furthermore, a retractable turn-over triangle 51 is provided on the disc 5. An A-position needle path 8 is provided in the middle of the triangle base plate 1 above the H-position knitting unit 2. An A-position start-up triangle 10 is retractably provided at the bottom of the triangle base plate 1. A start-up drive device for driving the A-position start-up triangle 10 to extend out of the triangle base plate or retract is fixedly installed on the rear side of the triangle base plate 1. In this way, the A-position start-up triangle 10 pushes the spring needle foot to the A-position needle path, so that the knitting needle performs a turn-over action in coordination with the turn-over trajectory of the turn-over triangle 51.
[0042] A non-woven pressure plate 9 at position B is provided in the middle of the triangular base plate 1 below the H-position knitting unit 2. In this embodiment, a needle selector is fixedly installed at the lower part of the triangular base plate 1. The needle selector selects the needle foot of the knitting needle assembly, causing the spring needle foot to move to the position of the non-woven pressure plate 9 at position B. The non-woven pressure plate 9 at position B presses the spring needle foot into the needle groove, so that the knitting needle does not participate in the knitting work.
[0043] In this embodiment, the H-position knitting unit 2 is the H-position, the A-position needle path is the A-position, and the B-position non-woven pressing sheet 9 is the B-position. These will not be repeated here.
[0044] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, further, the H-position braiding unit 2 includes a first pressure plate 21, a second pressure plate 22, and a third pressure plate 23 that are sequentially slidably disposed on the triangular base plate 1 at the H position. A pressure plate driving device 6 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the triangular base plate 1. A sliding groove base plate 61 is fixedly installed on the pressure plate driving device 6. A sliding groove cover plate 62 is provided on the sliding groove base plate 61. A pressure plate push plate 7 is slidably disposed between the sliding groove base plate 61 and the sliding groove cover plate 62 in the length direction, and the sliding groove base plate 61 and the sliding groove cover plate 62 are equidistant from each other in the length direction. The first pressing plate 21, the second pressing plate 22, and the third pressing plate 23 are slidably disposed in the sliding grooves 63 and respectively orthogonally sliding with the pressing plate pusher plate 7. In this embodiment, the pressing plate drive device 6 preferably adopts a servo motor, and a gear is fixedly disposed on its output shaft. One side of the pressing plate pusher plate 7 is provided with teeth that mesh with the gear. The pressing plate drive device 6 drives the pressing plate pusher plate 7 to move horizontally, thereby linking the first pressing plate 21, the second pressing plate 22, and the third pressing plate 23 to extend or retract.
[0045] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the pressing plate 7 is provided with a first pushing groove 71A, a second pushing groove 72, and a third pushing groove 71B corresponding to the first pressing plate 21, the second pressing plate 22, and the third pressing plate 23, respectively. The first pressing plate 21, the second pressing plate 22, and the third pressing plate 23 are respectively provided with sliding shafts that slide in cooperation with the first pushing groove 71A, the second pushing groove 72, and the third pushing groove 71B.
[0046] The first push groove 71A and the third push groove 71B each include a first straight groove portion 711, a second straight groove portion 712, and a first inclined groove portion 713 disposed between the first straight groove portion 711 and the second straight groove portion 712.
[0047] The second push groove 72 includes a third straight groove portion 721 and a first short groove portion 722 and a second short groove portion 723 respectively disposed at both ends of the third straight groove portion 721, and a second inclined groove portion is disposed between the first short groove portion 722 and the second short groove portion 723 and the third straight groove portion 721 respectively.
[0048] Thus, through the above settings, the first pressing plate 21, the second pressing plate 22, and the third pressing plate 23 can extend and retract under the linkage of each push groove to complete the corresponding actions.
[0049] The specific working status is as follows:
[0050] Combination Figure 4 As shown, in the initial state, the pressure plate pusher 7 is at the far left. The first pressure plate 21 and the third pressure plate 23 retract into the triangular base plate 1 under the action of the second straight groove 712, while the second pressure plate 22 retracts into the triangular base plate 1 under the action of the second short groove 723, so that the first pressure plate 21, the second pressure plate 22, and the third pressure plate 23 avoid the knitting needle assembly, so that the knitting needle assembly completes the knitting action along the knitting trajectory C2.
[0051] Combination Figure 5 As shown, when the pressure plate pusher 7 moves halfway to the right, the second pressure plate 22 continues to extend under the action of the third straight groove 721, while the first pressure plate 21 and the third pressure plate 23 continue to retract under the action of the second straight groove 712, so that the knitting needle assembly cooperates with the second pressure plate 22 to complete the eyelet movement along the eyelet track C3.
[0052] Combination Figure 6 As shown, when the pressure plate pusher 7 moves to the right to its maximum limit stroke, the first pressure plate 21 and the third pressure plate 23 continue to be extended under the action of the first straight groove 711, while the second pressure plate 22 gradually retracts into the triangular base plate 1 under the action of the first short groove 722, so that the needle assembly cooperates with the first pressure plate 21 and the third pressure plate 23 to complete the needle receiving action along the needle receiving trajectory C1.
[0053] Additionally, if the needle assembly is pushed to the non-woven pressure plate at position B, the needle assembly will work with the non-woven pressure plate at position B to complete the non-woven action along the non-woven track C5. Alternatively, if the needle assembly is pushed to the needle path at position A, the needle assembly will complete the needle turning action along the needle turning track C4.
[0054] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the center line of the needle selector is the end point Z1 of the first needle path. A B-position reset triangle 31 is set at the lower edge of the return triangle 3. The center line of the B-position reset triangle 31 is the end point Z2 of the second needle path. When the needle assembly moves to the end point Z1 of the first needle path or the end point Z2 of the second needle path, the triangle base plate 1 returns accordingly.
[0055] Combination Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, whenever the previous row and the next row use the same knitting operation, the pressure plate driving device drives the first pressure plate 21, the second pressure plate 22, and the third pressure plate 23 to retract the triangular base plate 1 synchronously. At the same time, the needle-starting driving device drives the needle-starting triangle 10 at position A to retract the triangular base plate 1, thereby avoiding the needle assembly. This allows the needle assembly to knit along the knitting trajectory C2 of the disc mountain 5. Since the next row also uses the same knitting operation, there is no need to use the return triangle 3 to reset each needle assembly. When the first needle path endpoint Z1 of the triangular base plate reaches the last needle assembly, the machine head can drive the triangular base plate 1 to return, allowing the needle assembly to continue knitting along the knitting trajectory C2 of the disc mountain 5.
[0056] Combination Figure 9 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 As shown, or when the previous row and the next row use different knitting operations, the first pressure plate 21, the second pressure plate 22, and the third pressure plate 23 are driven by the pressure plate drive device to retract the cam plate 1 synchronously. At the same time, the needle-starting drive device drives the needle-starting cam 10 at position A to retract the cam plate 1, so that the needle assembly performs knitting action along the knitting trajectory C2 of the disc 5. Since the next row needs to perform needle turning and non-knitting work, the needle assembly needs to be reset using the return needle cam 3 to facilitate the subsequent needle selection work. When the end point Z2 of the second needle path of the cam plate 1 reaches the last needle assembly, the machine head drives the cam plate 1 to return. Then, according to the needle selector, the corresponding needle assembly is moved to the position of needle path A or non-knitting pressure plate B, so that the needle assembly completes the needle turning action or does not participate in knitting along the needle turning trajectory C4 or the non-knitting trajectory C5.
[0057] Or, if the next row requires stitch joining, knitting, or hanging loop work:
[0058] Combination Figure 10As shown, the pressing plate driving device drives the first pressing plate 21 and the third pressing plate 23 to extend out of the triangular base plate 1, while the needle starting driving device drives the needle starting triangle 10 at position A to retract into the triangular base plate 1, so that the needle assembly performs needle receiving action along the needle receiving trajectory C3 of the disc mountain 5.
[0059] Combination Figure 9 As shown, the pressing plate driving device drives the first pressing plate 21, the second pressing plate 22, and the third pressing plate 23 to retract the triangular base plate 1 synchronously. At the same time, the needle starting driving device drives the needle starting triangle 10 at position A to retract the triangular base plate 1, so that the needle assembly performs knitting action along the knitting trajectory C2 of the disc mountain 5.
[0060] Combination Figure 8 As shown, the pressing device drives the second pressing plate 22 to extend out of the triangular base plate 1, while the needle-starting device drives the needle-starting triangle 10 at position A to retract into the triangular base plate 1, so that the needle assembly performs a needle-starting action along the needle-starting trajectory C1 of the disc mountain 5.
[0061] By implementing the above settings, the need to move the entire triangular base plate to the outside of the needle groove and then return is reduced, thereby shortening the stroke of the triangular base plate for each operation, greatly saving working time, and reducing the frequency of use of the A-position starting triangle, reducing its failure rate and wear, and effectively improving work efficiency.
[0062] The present invention also provides a knitting method based on the above-mentioned high-efficiency flat knitting machine shank. In this embodiment, the knitting method includes knitting with the same direction of movement in both directions and knitting with different direction of movement in both directions.
[0063] Reference Figure 7 As shown, the same weaving in both directions includes the following steps:
[0064] S101. The first, second, and third tablets are driven to retract synchronously into the triangular base plate by the tablet pressing drive device, and the needle starting drive device drives the needle starting triangle at position A to retract into the triangular base plate at the same time.
[0065] S102, the machine head drives the triangular base plate to move to the right, and pushes the needle assembly to the H-position knitting unit through the H-position starting triangle, so that the needle assembly completes the knitting work along the knitting track;
[0066] S103. When the first needle path of the needle selector in the triangular base plate reaches the last needle assembly, the machine head drives the triangular base plate to return, so that the needle assembly continues to complete the next row of knitting work along the knitting track C2 under the action of the H-position knitting unit.
[0067] By adopting the above knitting method, the stroke of the cam plate is significantly shortened each time. Compared with the knitting action of traditional flat knitting machines, the needle assembly does not need to be reset through the return cam in this method, nor does it need to push the spring needle foot of the needle assembly to position A to participate in the knitting action. The knitting action can be completed at position H, thereby reducing the frequency of use of the position A starting cam and avoiding the delay caused by the position A starting cam in frequent action over a long period of time, which may lead to tangled needles. This not only reduces the failure rate of the position A starting cam, but also reduces the wear of the position A starting cam by the needle assembly, and greatly improves the knitting efficiency.
[0068] Reference Figures 8-12 As shown, the different weaving methods for the upper and lower rows include the following steps:
[0069] S104. The first, second, and third tablets are driven to retract synchronously into the triangular base plate by the tablet pressing drive device, and the needle starting drive device drives the needle starting triangle at position A to retract into the triangular base plate.
[0070] S105. The machine head drives the triangular base plate to move to the right, and pushes the needle assembly to the H-position knitting unit through the H-position starting triangle, so that the needle assembly completes the knitting work along the knitting track.
[0071] S106, the second needle path of the B position reset triangle in the triangular base plate reaches the last needle assembly, resets the needle assembly, and the machine head then drives the triangular base plate back, so that the needle assembly completes the needle turning, needle joining, knitting, hanging, or non-knitting work along the needle path at position A, the knitting unit at position H, or the non-knitting pressure plate at position B.
[0072] In S106, when the next row needs to perform a needle flipping operation, the needle flipping cam is driven to extend out of the cam base plate by the pressure plate drive device, and the needle starting drive device is driven to extend out of the cam base plate by the needle starting cam at position A. At this time, the needle selector does not select the spring needle foot of the needle assembly, so the needle assembly is pushed to needle track 8 at position A by the needle starting cam at position A, so that the needle assembly completes the needle flipping operation along the needle flipping trajectory C4.
[0073] Alternatively, in S106, when the next row needs to perform non-knitting work, the needle selector selects the spring needle foot of the knitting needle assembly, causing the knitting needle assembly to be pushed to the position of the non-knitting pressure plate at position B. The non-knitting pressure plate at position B presses the knitting needle assembly into the needle groove of the needle plate, so that the knitting needle assembly does not participate in the knitting work.
[0074] Alternatively, in S106, when the next row needs to be needle-attached, the first pressure plate 21 and the third pressure plate 23 are driven out of the triangular base plate 1 by the pressure plate driving device. The needle selector does not select the spring needle foot of the needle assembly, so that the spring needle foot of the needle assembly is pushed to the position of the H-position knitting unit 2, so that the needle assembly cooperates with the first pressure plate 21 and the third pressure plate 23 to complete the needle-attaching work along the needle-attaching trajectory.
[0075] Alternatively, in S106, when the next row needs to be lifted, the second pressure plate 22 is driven out of the triangular base plate 1 by the pressure plate driving device, and at the same time the needle selector does not select the spring needle foot of the knitting needle assembly, so that the spring needle foot of the knitting needle assembly is pushed to the position of the H-position knitting unit 2, so that the knitting needle assembly cooperates with the second pressure plate 22 to complete the lifting work along the lifting track.
[0076] By adopting the above knitting method, the stroke of the triangle base plate 1 is also shortened each time. Compared with the knitting action of the traditional flat knitting machine, this method can also reduce the frequency of use of the starting triangle at position A, reduce its failure rate, reduce wear, avoid the occurrence of tangled needles, and greatly improve knitting efficiency.
[0077] Of course, the above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly. They cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. All modifications made according to the spirit of the main technical solution of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
