Detailed Implementation

[0016] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model discloses an adjustable guide rail for a computerized flat knitting machine, including a guide rail 1, a slide block 4 slidably connected to the middle of the guide rail 1, an adjusting seat 2 sleeved and connected to both ends of the guide rail 1, a threaded fixing rod 3 threadedly connected to both ends of the adjusting seat 2, two telescopic connecting rods 5 provided on both sides of the slide block 4, and an mounting plate 6 fixedly installed at the ends of the two connecting rods 5 on the same side, with a mounting hole 16 opened in the middle of the mounting plate 6.

[0018] Specifically, the adjusting seats 2 are fitted on both sides of the guide rail 1 and are fixedly connected to the guide rail 1 by the threaded fixing rod 3. The sliding distance of the slide 4 can be adjusted according to the knitting size requirements. At the same time, the mounting plates 6 on both sides of the slide 4 are connected by the telescopic connecting rod 5. During assembly, the position of the mounting plates 6 can be adjusted as needed. The position of the yarn guide frame of the knitting machine can be adjusted by the mounting plates 6, so that the yarn guide position of the yarn guide frame and the knitting position can be separated by a maintenance distance, which improves the convenience of maintenance.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model discloses an adjustable guide rail for a computerized flat knitting machine. The slide 4 has a cavity 8 inside, and two connecting blocks 12 are nested inside the cavity 8. The other ends of two connecting rods 5 located on the same side extend into the cavity 8 and are fixedly connected to the side of the connecting blocks 12.

[0020] Limiting rods 13 are fixedly installed on the bottom of both sides of the inner wall of cavity 8. The limiting rods 13 are inserted and connected to the bottom of the two connecting blocks 12. Positive and negative trapezoidal screws 11 are rotatably connected to the top of both sides of the inner wall of cavity 8. The two ends of the positive and negative trapezoidal screws 11 are threadedly connected to the top of the corresponding connecting blocks 12.

[0021] A second bevel gear 10 is fixedly installed in the middle of the positive and negative trapezoidal lead screw 11. A drive shaft is rotatably connected to the top of the cavity 8. A first bevel gear 9 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drive shaft. The first bevel gear 9 meshes with the second bevel gear 10. A rotating disk 7 is fixedly installed at the top of the drive shaft.

[0022] Specifically, the rotation of the positive and negative trapezoidal lead screws 11 is driven by the cooperation of the first bevel gear 9 and the second bevel gear 10. The rotation of the positive and negative trapezoidal lead screws 11 drives the two connecting blocks 12 to move towards the center or to the sides. The movement of the connecting blocks 12 drives the mounting plate 6 to move synchronously, thereby adjusting the position of the mounting plate 6.

[0023] An oil storage box 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cavity 8, and an oil seepage channel 15 communicating with the guide rail 1 is opened at the bottom of the oil storage box 14.

[0024] An oil injection pipe that communicates with the inside of the oil reservoir 14 is fixedly provided at the corner of the top of the adjusting seat 2, and a sealing plug is nested at the top of the oil injection pipe.

[0025] Specifically, the oil injection pipe facilitates the injection of lubricating oil into the oil reservoir 14.

[0026] In specific implementation, when using the adjustable guide rail, the guide rail 1 is first fixedly installed on the top of the computer knitting machine. When it is necessary to adjust the sliding distance of the slide 4, the distance between the two adjusting seats 2 is first manually adjusted, and then fixed by the threaded fixing rod 3. Next, the position of the mounting plate 6 is adjusted according to the installation requirements, and the rotating disk 7 is manually rotated. The rotating disk 7 drives the first bevel gear 9 to rotate. The first bevel gear 9 meshes with the second bevel gear 10, thereby driving the rotation of the positive and negative trapezoidal screws 11. The rotation of the positive and negative trapezoidal screws 11 drives the two connecting blocks 12 to move towards the center or both sides. The movement of the connecting blocks 12 drives the movement of the connecting rod 5. The movement of the connecting rod 5 drives the movement of the mounting plate 6. By adjusting the distance of the mounting plate 6, the position of the yarn guide frame of the knitting machine is adjusted, which improves practicality.
