[0002] In the running process of warp knitting machine, yarn breakage is a relatively common problem that can significantly affect production. Traditional warp knitting machine tension mechanism often focuses only on the adjustment of yarn tension to ensure that the yarn can maintain an appropriate degree of tension during the knitting process, thereby ensuring the quality of the fabric and the smooth progress of knitting. However, when yarn breaks at the tension mechanism, the existing equipment lacks effective measures to deal with it.

[0003] In actual production scenarios, warp knitting machines usually run at high speed continuously. Once the yarn breaks, if the ends of the broken yarn cannot be processed in time, the broken yarn will become disordered under the operation of the machine, which may entangle with other yarns or entangle on various parts of the warp knitting machine. This not only makes it extremely difficult and time-consuming to find the broken ends and rewire, seriously affecting production efficiency, but also may cause damage to the machine to some extent, increasing the maintenance cost and downtime of the equipment.
