Method for manufacturing a tubular hosiery item with a closed end, with a single-cylinder circular knitting machine having a pivoting semicircular plate having radially sliding hooks, including alternately rotating the needle cylinder for moving the needles of a first half of the needle cylinder and the hooks of the overlying semicircular plate to pass in front of a feed of the machine; the extracted hooks forming a support for a thread dispensed at the feed, actuated needles being actuated so as to take up the thread and be alternated with inactive needles, subsequently swapping the actuated needles with the inactive needle when the motion of the needle cylinder is reversed; a first needle of the needles of a second half of the needle cylinder is also made to pass in front of the feed to take up the thread, in order to allow both end hooks of the hooks of the semicircular plate to engage the thread; retracting the hooks of the semicircular plate so as to retain the engaged thread; forming heel knitting with the needles of the first half of the needle cylinder that have taken up the thread; folding over the semicircular plate so that the hooks which have retained the thread face the needles of the second half of the needle cylinder; extracting the hooks from the semicircular plate and actuating the needles of the second half of the needle cylinder while the cylinder is rotated continuously about its own axis so as to form loops of knitting by the needles of the second half of the needle cylinder, the loops meshing with the thread carried by the hooks of the semicircular plate, which are then retracted into the semicircular plate in order to release the previously held and transferred thread; and actuating the machine in order to complete the item.

A flat knitting machine with a transferring mechanism comprising a pair of needle beds arranged facing each other to form an inverted V-shaped form in a side view and to form an aperture between adjoining end portions of the needle beds, knitting needles arranged in needle grooves formed on the needle beds, a yarn feeder arranged above the aperture between the needle beds, each carriage being reciprocally movable on each of the needle beds and having cam surface on a lower surface of the carriage for moving the knitting needles forward and backward, each transferring jack bed is supported by a supporting member above each of the needle beds, a transferring jack having a transfer jack selected member and arranged swingably and movably forward and backward in a jack groove formed on each transferring bed, and a transfer jack selecting unit acting on the transfer jack selected member and arranged at an edge portion of the carriage, which is adjoining to the aperture. The needle bed and the transferring jack bed are relatively movable.

Forming a mock cable pattern in a knitted fabric includes preforming tuck stitches in the fabric, subsequently transferring and placing the tuck stitches on respective preselected needles in an array within which the mock cable pattern is being formed, and knitting the tuck stitches into the fabric. For a mock double cable pattern, two tuck stitches are preformed in the material by outer ones of the needles in the array, so as to subsequently be essentially below these needles. When a fabric row in which the pattern is to begin is reached, knitting then is interrupted, and single eyelet tools are inserted diagonally through openings in the tuck stitches in an upward direction left-to-right and right-to-left, respectively. The tuck stitches then are transferred inwardly and diagonally upward, and placed upon respective ones of the preselected needles, which are rearward for identification purposes, and which then are pulled forward into "hold" knitting positions. Knitting is then resumed, with the tuck stitches being knitted into the fabric to produce a mock cable pattern portion. The process is repeated until the desired length of the mock cable pattern has been formed. A mock single cable pattern is formed in a similar manner using only one tuck stitch and one transfer operation.
摘要:
A circular knitting and stocking making machine for the manufacture of perforated stockings with transfer stitch patterns having a dial plate eccentric with respect to the needle cylinder and defining therewith an enlarged loop transfer zone. On this plate there is provided a plurality of punches slidable in a radial direction and devices for the advancement and withdrawal of said punches so as to permit the taking up of the loop from determined needles and its discharge on to others substantially adjacent. The needles slidable along the cylinder are provided below their point with means adapted to retain the loop and shaped in such a manner as to facilitate the taking up by said punches. The needle cylinder is provided with cams for raising this means on the needles substantially to the level of the punches.

A knitted border is guided from the needles of a flat knitting machine to the points of a transfer bar releasably secured on the machine below the needle beds by gravity along guide wires passing through stitches in the last-knitted course. The stitches are transferred from the needles to the wires by the action of a cam on the knitting carriage.
摘要:
A device for actuating the narrowing points of two needle bed knitting machines, having first means for imparting, to the points, a movement in a direction parallel to the plane of the associated needle bed, second means for varying the distance of said points relative to the said plane and third means for imparting, to the said points an angular shifting about an axis passing through the tip of the latter.

A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR KNITTING LADDER-PROOF TUBULAR PRODUCTS IN WHICH THE LOOPS ARE TRANSFERRED LATERALLY FROM CERTAIN COURSES TO ADJACENT WALES. THE LOOPS IN THE COURSES FROM WHICH THE LOOPS ARE TRANSFERRED ARE MADE LARGER THAN THE LOOPS IN THE OTHER COURSES SUCH THAT, AFTER TRANSFER, ALL OF THE COURSES OF HAVE LOOPS OF APPROXIMATELY THE SAME SIZE.
