AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing needle plate structure of flat knitting machines, the asymmetrical setting of the sinker plate leads to uneven coil arc length, which affects the knitting effect, especially when knitting garment pieces and gloves with high density requirements in fully formed fabrics.

Method used

The first and second toothed plates are set on the needle plate of the flat knitting machine. The two have the same shape and the toothed plate step surface is added on the side. The toothed plates are set on both sides of the sinker plate to ensure that the sinker plate is evenly assisted when pressing the yarn. The yarn sliding is optimized by the yarn dropping arc surface and the toothed plate step. The problem of low-position arrangement of moving scissors is solved by using the small needle plate structure.

Benefits of technology

This achieves consistency in coil arc length, improves weaving effect, allows for shorter thread cuts with scissors, and enhances weaving stability and density uniformity.
