[0002] In the computer flat knitting machine industry, the needle bed as a core component, its structure design and function optimization are directly related to the production efficiency and quality of knitted fabric. The traditional needle bed structure is mainly composed of a needle plate and knitting needles, and a series of needle slots are pre-set on the needle plate for fixing and guiding the reciprocating movement of the knitting needles. The precise movement of the knitting needles in the needle slots, combined with the coordinated action of the needle hook and the needle tongue, realizes the orderly knitting of the yarn, and finally forms various patterns and structures of knitted fabric.

[0003] However, with the continuous progress of knitting technology and the increasing demand for personalization, higher requirements are put forward for the design flexibility and production efficiency of knitted fabric. In the existing needle bed structure, the needle slots are usually processed directly on the needle plate by a milling machine. This fixed design method has significant limitations: once the arrangement of the knitting needles needs to be adjusted to adapt to different patterns or structures, tedious operations must be performed - first, all the knitting needles are disassembled, then the needle plate with different needle slot layout is replaced, and finally the knitting needles are reassembled. This process not only consumes time and effort, but also increases production cost and reduces production flexibility.

[0004] In view of the above background, the utility model aims to provide a needle bed structure which is convenient to adjust the position of the knitting needles. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0008] The utility model is further provided with a trapezoidal structure of the limiting groove, and the end of the limiting groove close to the mounting seat is wider than the end of the limiting groove away from the mounting seat.

[0009] The utility model further sets up, the mounting seat bottom has the limit protruding portion, has the limit recess portion with limit protruding portion cooperation in the sliding slot.

[0010] The utility model further sets up, the limit groove has the guide bevel angle near one end of mounting seat, is used for guiding mounting seat, is convenient for mounting seat and limit groove cooperation.

[0011] The utility model further sets up, the limit seat has the plug -in block, and the needle plate has the insertion slot for the plug -in block insertion.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a kind of flat knitting machine needle bed structure with adjustable needle position, with following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1, when needing to replace needle position, limit seat is detached from needle plate, and according to demand, select the limit seat of the adjacent two limit slot interval same with required needle spacing, install it on needle plate, and in installation process, several mounting seats are matched with limit slot respectively, i.e.

[0014] 2, limit slot is trapezoidal structure, and one end near mounting seat is wider than the other end, it is convenient for limit seat and mounting seat cooperation, and with constantly push in, mounting seat and limit slot are more and more close, and limit seat is fixed to mounting seat.
