摘要:
A method and an apparatus for simultaneously feeding at least two yarns in double-cylinder circular knitting machines. The method comprises a step for feeding the needles (20) of the machine, by way of a yarn finger unit (1) having at least two dispensing points (10,15) for at least two yarns (4,5), with at least two yarns, with yarn dispensing points (10,15) located at substantially mutually identical vertical elevations; and a step for taking up the excess portion of the two yarns (4,5) at the end of the engagement of the yarns by the needles (20) of the machine. At the end of the feeding step and before the beginning of the take-up step, the yarn dispensing point (10) of one (5) of the two yarns is vertically staggered with respect to the dispensing point (15) of the other yarn (4) in order to vertically space one of the yarns (5) with respect to the other (4).
摘要:
A single-cylinder circular hosiery-making or knitting machine particularly for manufacturing tubular items closed at one of their axial ends, the machine comprising a needle cylinder (2) and a circular plate (8) which coaxially faces the needle cylinder (2) in an upward region. The circular plate (8) is composed of two halves (13, 16), a first half (13) of the circular plate (8) being pivoted to a first supporting structure (15) about a diametrical axis (14) which is substantially parallel to the diametrical connecting plane of the two halves (13, 16) of the circular plate (8), the first half (13) of the circular plate (8) being provided with radial grooves (50) which accommodate pairs of hooks (51a, 51b) which can be actuated along the corresponding groove so as to engage or release loops or portions of loops of knitting formed by the needles (4) of the needle cylinder (2). Elements (23, 24, 25, 27) are provided for overturning the first half (13) of the circular plate about the diametrical axis (14) to transfer it from a first position, which is co-planar with respect to a second half (16) of the circular plate (8), to a second position, which is overturned below the second half (16) of the circular plate (8), and viceversa. The first half (13) of the circular plate (8) is rotatable, in the second position, rigidly with the needle cylinder (2) about the axis of the needle cylinder with respect to the second half (16) of the circular plate (8).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a circular knitting machine with improved knitting forming cam set. The knitting forming cam set comprises, proximate to a feed (5) of the machine, a knitting forming cam (6) with a lower profile (7) forming a descending portion (7) immediately after the feed (5), which can engage the heel (3a) of the needles (3) which are raised to take up the thread so as to lower them and cause the forming of the loops of knitting. A countercam (8) is provided proximate to the end of the descending portion (7) of the knitting forming cam (6) and faces the knitting forming cam (6) in a downward region; the countercam (8) delimits the lowering of the needles (3) after taking up the thread. The countercam (8) is slidably supported with respect to the knitting forming cam (6) along a sliding direction in which a component is parallel to the needle cylinder axis. The machine is provided with a pneumatic cylinder for controllably actuating the countercam (8) to move the countercam (8) along the sliding direction toward or away from the knitting forming cam (6).
摘要:
The process consists in producing a body of knitting having a substantially tubular extension, knitting portions (3) of the body, which are to be removed, with a number of machine feeds which is smaller than the number of feeds used to knit the remaining part (2,4) of the product (1). The threads arriving from the feeds which are not used to knit the portions (3) to be removed are cut in each instance proximate to the edges where the knitting of the portions to be removed begins and are again fed proximate to the edges where the knitting of the portions to be removed (3) ends.
摘要:
A circular knitting machine with a casting-off sinker actuation device, which includes a sinker ring (8) which is arranged coaxially to the needle cylinder (2) proximate to its upper end and which supports at least one cam (11) and at least one countercam (12) which is arranged outside the cam (11) with respect to the needle cylinder axis (2a). The cam (11) and the countercam (12) define at least one portion of a path (13) which extends around the needle cylinder axis (2a) and is followed by a heel (7a) of casting-off sinkers (7), which are supported by the needle cylinder (2), when the needle cylinder (2) is actuated with a rotary motion about its own axis (2a) with respect to the sinker ring (8). The sinker actuation device includes positioning means (14) which are associated with the sinker ring (8) and which can be controllably actuated to adjust the position of the countercam (12) along a direction with a radial component with respect to the needle cylinder (2a).
摘要:
The device comprises a box-like supporting structure (2) which slidably accommodates at least one slider (5) arranged laterally facing the needle cylinder (6) of the machine and is movable, by virtue of the action of a linear motor (11), along a direction which is radial to the needle cylinder (6). The slider (5) is rigidly associated, with its end which protrudes out of the box-like structure (2), with a knitting cam (7) which is selectively engageable with needle actuation elements (8) by moving the slider (5). The slider (5) is constituted by a shaft (10) which is slidably supported, along its axis, by the box-like structure (2) by means of a first bearing (17) which is arranged inside the box-like structure (2) and has balls (18) partially accommodated in longitudinal seats (19) defined on the outer surface of the shaft (5) and in seats (20) correspondingly defined on the inner surface of a bush (21) which extends around the shaft (5) and is prevented from rotating about its axis.
