[0023] This utility model discloses a flat knitting machine and its yarn plate support installation structure, which optimizes the yarn plate support structure of the flat knitting machine.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, Figure 1 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the yarn plate support mounting structure of the flat knitting machine provided in this application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the first yarn board support; Figure 3 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of the second yarn board support.

[0026] This application provides a yarn plate support mounting structure for a flat knitting machine, including a yarn plate support 3 arranged on a base-start transmission square tube 1. A transmission wheel 4 supporting a transmission belt 2 is arranged on the base-start transmission square tube 1. The yarn plate support 3 has a receiving window for accommodating the transmission wheel 4, and at least part of the transmission wheel 4 extends into the receiving window. By providing a receiving window on the yarn plate support 3 to accommodate part of the transmission wheel 4, the overall space occupied by the yarn plate support 3 and the transmission wheel 4 is shortened. When it is necessary to reduce the length dimension of the flat knitting machine, the yarn plate support can be moved inward to meet the knitting length of the machine head and obtain a smaller outer dimension. Alternatively, the transmission wheel can be moved outward to the side of the yarn plate support, thereby extending the travel distance of the machine head and obtaining a longer safe starting needle length, meeting the flat knitting machine layout requirements of different customers.

[0027] In a specific embodiment of this case, the yarn board support 3 includes a support frame 31 formed by a plate of predetermined width in the thickness direction. Multiple supporting ribs 32 arranged in a grid pattern are arranged inside the support frame 31, and the receiving window is enclosed by the supporting ribs 32. The yarn board support 3 has a frame structure. The main structure of the yarn board support 3 is formed by a plate of predetermined width enclosing the support frame 31. The support frame 31 is supported by the grid-like supporting ribs 32 inside. The yarn board support 3 has a structure that is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top. The bottom of the yarn board support 3 is connected to the bottom-feeding transmission square tube 1, and a protruding part 33 is provided at the front to support and limit the needle plate seat 5. The bottom of the yarn board support 3 is supported by horizontally and vertically intersecting supporting ribs 32, which enclose the receiving window. The upper part of the yarn board support 3 has a narrower spacing and can be supported by the horizontal supporting ribs.

[0028] The yarn plate bracket 3 is also used to install the outer shell of the flat knitting machine. Utilizing the predetermined width of the structure of the yarn plate bracket 3, a groove structure is formed inside the bracket frame, and the mounting base plate can be arranged between the supporting ribs.

[0029] Specifically, the interior of the support frame 31 is also equipped with multiple mounting base plates 34 arranged in sections, and threaded bases are provided on the mounting base plates 34. The mounting base plates 34 are set according to the installation position of the outer shell supported by the yarn board bracket 3, and the threaded bases are fixed on the mounting base plates 34 to support the installation of the outer shell and other external components.

[0030] Furthermore, threaded holes can be machined on the frame itself to form a support and installation structure for different positions on the flat knitting machine in the middle and outer periphery of the yarn plate support, which is used for the installation and support of components at different positions on the flat knitting machine.

[0031] In one specific embodiment of this case, the yarn board support 3 includes a first yarn board support 301 and a second yarn board support 302 disposed at both ends of the bottoming transmission square tube 1 along its length, and the transmission wheel 4 includes a driving wheel 401 and a driven wheel 402 disposed at both ends of the bottoming transmission square tube 1 along its length.

[0032] The first yarn board support 301 has a drive wheel receiving window 311 for receiving the drive wheel, and the second yarn board support 302 has a support receiving window 312 for receiving the driven wheel support for supporting the driven wheel.

[0033] Furthermore, a drive wheel support is provided on the bottom transmission square tube 1 to support the drive wheel, and a first safety anti-collision seat is provided on the drive wheel support to limit the first transmission position of the drive wheel.

[0034] A second safety anti-collision seat is provided on the driven wheel support to limit the second transmission position of the transmission wheel.

[0035] The yarn plate support 3 has two ends in the length direction of the bottom transmission square tube. The first yarn plate support 301 is matched with the drive wheel 401. The drive wheel has a larger outer diameter. The drive wheel receiving window 311 is used to receive the outer periphery of the drive wheel 401. The internal space of the first yarn plate support 301 is used to shorten the overall size of the first yarn plate support 301 and the drive wheel 401.

[0036] The second yarn board bracket 302 and the driven wheel 402 cooperate. The driven wheel 402 is relatively small in size. After being installed on the driven wheel support, the support receiving window 312 on the second yarn board bracket 302 is used to simultaneously receive the driven wheel and the driven wheel support part, thereby shortening the overall size of the driven wheel support and the second yarn board bracket.

[0037] Overall, by utilizing the yarn plate bracket 3 as a bracket structure formed by a plate of predetermined width, and opening an accommodating window on the side of the yarn plate bracket 3 near the driving wheel or the driven wheel, the two intersect each other in space, shortening the overall space occupied and improving the integration of components, thereby achieving a more compact structural size for the knitting flat knitting machine in the length direction and improving space utilization.

[0038] Based on the yarn plate support mounting structure of the flat knitting machine provided in the above embodiments, the present invention also provides a flat knitting machine, including a bottom-starting transmission square tube, and a first yarn plate support and a second yarn plate support arranged on the bottom-starting transmission square tube, wherein the first yarn plate support and the second yarn plate support have the yarn plate support mounting structure of the flat knitting machine provided in the above embodiments.

[0039] Since this flat knitting machine adopts the yarn plate bracket mounting structure of the flat knitting machine described in the above embodiment, please refer to the above embodiment for the beneficial effects brought by the yarn plate bracket mounting structure of the flat knitting machine.

[0040] In one specific embodiment of this case, two sets of first mounting positions for supporting the first yarn plate bracket and the drive wheel bracket are arranged at intervals on the bottom transmission square tube.

[0041] Two sets of second mounting positions are arranged at intervals on the bottom transmission square tube to support the second yarn plate bracket and the driven wheel bracket;

[0042] The first yarn board support and the driving wheel support are arranged away from or close to each other via the first mounting position and the second mounting position.

[0043] By designing the space occupied between the yarn plate support and the drive wheel, a more compact transmission arrangement can be achieved. When modifying the structure of a flat knitting machine, for existing flat knitting machines or flat knitting machine processing molds, a first mounting position and a second mounting position can be machined on the bottom drive square tube. When installing components, the positions of the yarn plate support and the drive wheel can be adjusted using the two sets of first and second mounting positions to obtain a smaller space occupied in the length direction or a larger machine head sliding distance, thereby improving the safety of starting stitches and meeting the different customers' requirements for space or knitting safety.

[0044] Of course, the yarn plate support and the drive wheel can also be moved close together at the same time, that is, the yarn plate support is moved inward and the drive wheel is moved outward. This reduces the space occupied by the flat knitting machine in the length direction and increases the end sliding distance of the machine head, thus improving the knitting safety.

[0045] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
