Establishment of two controls aehrayateaiger Rundatriokmaschinen for the production of patterned geatricks «.

logic circuits, buffers and amplifiers to control the excitation of the electromagnets the actuators serve in concert with the needle cylinder rotary motion. Each multi-system Circular knitting machine has its own - movable or fixed - program carrier on »for example the In the form of a perforated tape, a magnetic or clear signal carrier or a switch panel

The invention was based on the object to create a device su which a more efficient control of the Knitting machines of a company for knitting patterned goods and - above all - a faster changeover to other patterns allowed.

The task set is according to the invention by a Cough device solved, in which a storage device serves as a sample program carrier, which consists of a Computer can be supplied with mueteraignaldata * The redirection thus points in the opposite to so far known · * cough devices a central computer on which "a variety of Kuster programs go" «Is peiohert.

Various types of storage devices can be used use of memories known from computer technology, the information content of which is stored for any length of time remains or is saved in rotation after each reading and which can be added at any time Have pattern information deleted · For example, memories made up of groups of semiconductors, such as OR circuits with feedback systems or plip-flops or magnetic memory «· such as magnet core or magnet wire arrangements - are provided« »

The computer from which preferably several of these Storage devices can be fed as often as required, has a storage part in which a large number of sample information is stored and as required can be called up »The sample information can be found in Shape a variety of different finished pattern » repeats or also in the form of basic types of pattern repeats for different thread colors and / or Types of yarn and / or types of stitches can be written in the memory part, with arbitrary types from this multitude of basic types in a downstream programming part any pattern repeats can be combined, their

A device according to the invention has the advantage that in larger companies several © machine-won a common program carrier can be roster according controlled from "wherein a rapid changeover of the machine to other memory devices or by a Neuein" read into the storage device from the central computer reaches can be. The advantage of the device is also evident in the production of smaller knitted fabrics «quantities with different patterns» which often arise when reorders are placed. Continuous operation of the knitting machines is practically guaranteed here, since no long periods of standstill are required, and no sample program carriers have to be exchanged

The basic principle of a control device according to the invention for the production of patterned knitted fabrics on! Circular knitting machines is shown in the accompanying drawing. visibly «She shows a computer 10 in a cough · management center which, for example, has a first memory 11 for a large number of basic types of pattern · = has reports, from which 12 different sample reports are combined with the help of a programming device «The computer is also with a second

Storage part 13 is provided in which a plurality of predetermined cough reports can be saved in finished form, both directly and with the programming part 12 can be passed on in any combination «For this purpose, the computer 10 is via a multi-core Connection line 14 connected to a plurality of storage devices 15, either by the computer at the same time with information for a specific sample report or be supplied with information for different cough reports at different times = »This Information is obtained from the storage devices 15 Given via connecting lines 16 to the pattern devices 17 of, for example, three circular knitting machines 18. Of course, only the sample device 17 of a single one can be attached to each storage device 15 Circular knitting machine attached to his
