Definitions
- the present invention relates to straight knitting machines for the manufacture of stockings and more particularly refers to a device used in such machines for knocking over the heel loops during the time the loops of the instep portion are placed in suspense.
- this operation of the loops placed in suspense and the desired proper formation of the heel loops respectively is obtained by the fact, that knocking over is discontinued at the loops placed in suspense, for instance by disconnecting portions of the knockover bar or by imparting additional movements in between wide ranges to these parts.
- knockover bits are used which are provided with a second knockover point upon which in the range of theheel loops knocking over is effected during the manufacture of the heel portions by a special movement of the knockover bar.
- the object of the invention is to provide adevice by means of which a perfectly faultless formation of the heel loops is produced without drawing or pulling off and simultaneously also the highest possible protection of the row of loops is obtained which hangs on the frame needles of the instep portion from the beginning of the manufacture of the heel portions to the end of this operation.
- the object aimed at is obtained in the most simple manner by the fact, that theknockover bits cooperating with the needles used to produce the heel loops are provided with a second knockover point arranged with regard to the firstknockover point in front of same and in an elevated position. -With this arrangement during the formation of the rows of loops of theheel portions knockover on the second knockover point is automatically efiected on the wales in consideration by the already altered amplitude of the oscillation of the frame needles due to the use of auxiliary presser combs.
- Fig. 1 is an elevation of the frame needle and the knockover bit in the normal knockover position
- Fig. 2 shows an elevation similar to that of Fig. 1 but illustrating the frame needle and the knockover bit in the knockover position during the manufacture of the heel portions
- Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic view illustrating the mode of operation carried out with the individual parts of the machine occupying the position shown in Fig. 2,
- Fig. 4 shows the front portion of a knockover bit on an enlarged scale and illustrates the different knockover points
- Fig. 5 is a view on an enlarged scale of the position of the thread and the knockover position during the manufacture of the heel portions.
- the knockover bits I have the form shownin full lines in Fig. 4 and are provided with the second knockover point 2.
- the knockover bits I used in the production of the heel loops are, as indicated in broken lines in Fig. 4, provided with an elevation by which the second knockover point 3 lying in a higher level-is obtained.
- the loops in the range of the instep portion are not influenced by the knockover bits I as in this range the knockover bits are not provided with the elevated second knockover point (left hand bit Fig. 5).
- the roller I may, of course, be shifted by hand or automatically.
- an auxiliary knockover cam would then have to be provided havingan additional curve corresponding to the additional curve I. If the roller I0 would be shifted into the path of the auxiliary knockover i camrthe elevated knockover points 3 of the knockover bits would be brought below the loops of the needles moved in the normal manner.
