Title:
FLAT KNITTING MACHINE EQUIPPED WITH MOVABLE SINKER, AND MOVABLE SINKER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/075449
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A flat knitting machine equipped with a movable sinker and a movable sinker are provided that make it possible to prevent limitation of a portion that acts on stitches and knitted fabric even if a movement stroke along a trajectory of movement of the portion toward and away from the needle bed gap is limited. An acting region 4 of a movable sinker 1, which is indicated by a solid line, is in a state of being withdrawn from the needle bed gap 11 due to a pressure applied by a sinker cam 19 to a passive arm 2a. When the pressure applied by the sinker cam 19 to the passive arm 2a is decreased, the acting region 4 of the movable sinker 1 is moved to the position indicated by the dashed line due to the biasing by a wire spring 1a. In the process of this movement, the pressing wire 16a presses a pressure-receiving portion 7 of the movable sinker 1, thereby causing the position and shape of an acting portion 6, a pressure-receiving portion 7, a spring portion 8, and a regulating portion 9 to be changed as indicated by the dashed line. Accordingly, even when the trajectory of a movable arm 5 is limited, the trajectory of the acting portion 6 acting on the stitches and knitted fabric is prevented from being limited.
