摘要： Both the leading and trailing ends of the respective yarns introduced to and removed from active knitting position are of uniform length on the inside of the sock when forming solid color patterned areas in the sock. The cutting of all yarn ends inside of the sock, enables the operator to easily evert and inspect the inside of the socks as they are removed from the knitting machine and eliminates the usual time consuming operation of cutting the yarn ends after the sock is knit. The cutting and clamping apparatus is illustrated in association with a four-feed solid color patterned knitting machine of the type normally employed in knitting argyle patterns in socks, and includes a vertically disposed suction tube with the lower end disposed within the upper end of the needle circle. A yarn clamping member is associated with the lower end of the suction tube and a hot wire cutter is positioned between the needle circle and the clamping member. A yarn lifting member is supported for vertical movement adjacent to clamping member and lifts a yarn moved to inactive position into engagement with the hot wire cutter.

摘要翻译： 当在袜子中形成固体彩色图案区域时，引入和移出主动编织位置的相应纱线的前端和后端在袜子的内侧上具有均匀的长度。 袜子内的所有纱线端部的切割使得操作者能够容易地将袜子内部从针织机上移出来，并且消除了在袜子被编织之后切割纱线端部的通常耗时的操作。 该切割和夹紧装置与通常用于袜子中编织菱纹图案的四进给纯色图案编织机相关联地示出，并且包括垂直设置的吸管，其下端设置在针的上端内 圈。 纱线夹紧构件与吸管的下端相关联，并且热线切割器位于针圆与夹紧构件之间。 纱线提升构件被支撑成与夹紧构件相邻的垂直运动，并且将移动到非活动位置的纱线提升到与热线切割器接合。
