Description
- This invention relates to a control device for adjusting the stitch density on a knitting machine.
- As is known for example from GB-
A-1 149 361, the above adjustment is effected by shifting the stitch cams relatively to the other cams which control the needle movements, generally referred to as cam assemblies, so as to obtain longer or shorter stitches. - In some circular knitting machines, for example, both of the fixed and rotary needle cylinder types, the displacement of the stitch cams is accomplished by turning a small, specially provided drum which carries adjustable plates adapted for engagement with a slide supporting the stitch cams to thereby shift them by a desired amount.
- Other machines provide control of the stitch density by means of a step motor, which is controlled electronically and shifts the stitch cams in conformity with a knitting programme.
- Such prior devices, while providing electronic control of the stitch density, are not devoid of shortcomings.
- With the adjustable plate drum approach, the number of the adjustments afforded depends on the number of the plates carried on each drum, and this number cannot be a high one owing to the space limitations imposed on the device.
- When stitch densities are sought which cannot be provided by plates carried on the drum, some screws effective to shift the plate positions must be manually manipulated prior to starting the knitting process.
- Usually, there is provided one drum for each yarn feed, and in the instance of multiple feed machines, such manual adjustments grow to a large number because in the best of cases at least one plate per drum must be shifted.
- This, additionally to being time consuming, limits the range of electronic control applicable to the machine since, without manual intervention, only a limited number of densities can be achieved equal to the number of the plates present on the drum.
- With the form where adjustment is accomplished through a step motor, the problem is instead that the device becomes very expensive with respect to other conventional methods.
- It is a primary aim of this invention to provide a device for adjusting the stitch density on knitting machines, which affords electronic control of the density adjustment, thus providing a much wider range of density adjustment than prior devices, without requiring any manual intervention.
- Within the above aim, it is an object of the invention to provide a device which can replace the devices used heretofore without involving any major alterations of the other component parts of a knitting machine, and has a limited cost.
- The above aim, as well as this and other objects to be made clear herein below, are achieved by a control device for adjusting the stitch density on a knitting machine as defined in

- Figures 21 to 23 illustrate some operational steps of the third embodiment of this device.
- With reference to Figures 1 to 11 of the drawings, a first embodiment of this device comprises a set of foils, generally indicated at 1, which are arranged along a substantially perpendicular axis to the faces of the foils and form a variable working thickness element according to the invention.
- Each of the foils has a
rest face 2 lying on a substantially perpendicular plane to the axis of the foil set 1, and a workingface 3, opposing therest face 2, which has two inoperative zones 4 and twooperative zones 5; the inoperative zones 4 lie on a parallel plane to therest face 2, and theoperative zones 5 lie on another plane, parallel to therest face 2. - The difference between the thickness dimensions of the foil measured at an operative zone and that measured at an inoperative zone, represents the thickness increase of the foil set as the foil moves from an inoperative position to an operative position. The transferrment from the inoperative to the operative position occurs by moving the foil along a substantially perpendicular flow direction to the axis of the
foil set 1. - Each foil is arranged in the set to have one working
face 3 thereof confronting the workingface 3 of an adjacent foil, and itsrest face 2 confronting therest face 2 of the other adjacent foil. - The
foil set 1 is supported on a box-type body generally designated with thereference numeral 6, which has on its inner surface two groove pairs 7a and 7b, respectively, which face each other in the proximity of the flanks of the foil set 1 and extend along a substantially parallel direction to the axis of the set. - This first embodiment of the device further comprises a plurality of
rolls 8 which engage with the workingfaces 3 of the foils, and have a substantially perpendicular axis to the foil flow direction. Each of therolls 8 is mounted slidably within the groove pairs 7a and 7b, and engages respectively with an inoperative zone 4 of one foil with the latter in the inoperative position, and with anoperative zone 5 with the foil in the operative position. Two working faces 3, confronting each other, would engage with thesame roll 8. - Each foil, moreover, has one end associated with the end of a
bias spring 9 connected with the other end to the box-type body 6. Thebias spring 9 has a substantially parallel axis to the foil flow direction and is stretched by actuating the foil associated therewith. - Each foil is also formed, on one side, with two
notches 10a and 10b of V-like configuration, which are set apart and all aligned together when the foils are either all actuated or not actuated. Thenotches 10a and 10b engage with aratchet mechanism 11 which can pivot, against the bias of aspring 12, about a substantially parallel axis to the axis of thefoil set 1. Depending on whether the hooked foil is operated or not, theratchet mechanism 11 will engage with either thenotch 10a or 10b. Since theratchet mechanism 11 is the only one for the whole foil set 1, the actuation of one foil results in the previously actuated foils being released because the ratchet mechanism would be pivoted by the foil being driven. Theratchet mechanism 11 may also be pivoted by actuating thelever 24, thereby all the foils are released simultaneously. - The
foil set 1 is arranged in the box-type body such that one end of the set is blocked by a wall of the box-type body 6, which forms the fixed detent, and the other end contacts arod 13 protruding out of the box-type body 6 and slidable parallel to the axis of the foil set. - In the first embodiment, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the device is associated through the box-
type body 6 with the structure 14 carrying the cam assemblies and therod 13 is laid onto anadjustable bracket 18 to take up any play and associated with aslide 19; also associated with theslide 19, movable relatively to thecam assemblies 20, are a supportingelement 21 and thestitch cams 22 engaging with theneedles 15. - The foil set 1, partially protruding out of the box-
type body 6, may be driven through a set ofknives 23, which may be controlled from a conventional electronic unit. - Assuming that the stitch begins to be adjusted with all of the foils in an inoperative position, to which there corresponds a first stitch density, interference with one or
more knives 23, actuated as required by the knitting process through a conventional device, causes one or more foils to translate along the flow direction as shown in Figures 6 to 10. - Thus, the
ratchet mechanism 11 is disengaged from the notch 10b which it occupied and theoperative zones 5 engage with therolls 8 to shift all of the foils intervening between the actuated foil androd 13 to push therod 13 to displace, by an amount which corresponds to the thickness increase assumed immediately by thefoil set 1, the stitch cams in a parallel direction to the working direction of theneedles 15, thus adjusting the stitch density as required. As actuation is discontinued, the actuated foil is withheld in its position by theratchet mechanism 11 engaging with theother notch 10a. On actuating another foil, theratchet mechanism 11 is disengaged and the previously driven foils are disengaged by the action of thebias springs 9. Of course, it would be possible to simultaneously actuate several foils in different mutual combinations to produce displacement of the stitch cams which is the sum of the displacements produced by each driven foil. If return to the initial position is desired, it will be sufficient that one of knives be brought to interfere with thelever 24. - In practice, it has been found that by using a limited number of foils, e.g. six foils having different thicknesses, it becomes possible to obtain up to sixty-four different densities by driving the foils either individually or in various combinations thereof so as to shift the stitch cam from 0 mm to 6.3 mm moving progressively through positions which differ from each other by 0.1 mm, which is the least density variation normally required for knitting machines.
- With reference to Figures 12 to 17, showing the second embodiment of this device, as indicated at 101, the variable working thickness element according to the invention comprises at least one adjustment wedge, represented herein by two adjustment wedges, respectively a
first wedge 105 and asecond wedge 106. Each of the two adjustment wedges is movable along an actuation direction and is supported slidably on a frame, generally designated with thereference numeral 107, associable with a machine portion close to thecam assemblies 20. Each adjustment wedge has a working surface, respectively at 108 and 109, with at least oneportion 110, respectively 111, thereof inclined with respect to the cited actuation direction and operatively connected to theslide 19 which, as mentioned, is rigid with thestitch cam 22. The first and second wedges engage slidably with each other through contactingsurfaces 112, 113, respectively, presented by each wedge remotely from the working surface and parallel to the actuation direction. The two wedges rest slidably onto thebottom wall 114 of theframe 107 and theinclined portion 110 of the first wedge engages with afixed detent 115 which extends from thebottom wall 114 of theframe 107, while the inclined portion of the second wedge engages through a transmission, in this case alever 116 pivotally mounted on theframe 107, with thebracket 18 associated with theslide 19. - The two wedges are movable within two
guide projections first wedge 105 against the fixeddetent 115 brings about a displacement movement of thesecond wedge 106 which will be transferred to theslide 19 through thelever 116 and thebracket 18. - Thus, by moving the two wedges along the actuation direction, a displacement of the slide is achieved which is related to the sum of the displacements produced by the individual inclined portions of the two wedges.
- The inclined portions of the two wedges may define gradients designed such that one gradient is a multiple integer of the other, e.g. it may be arranged for a displacement of one of the two wedges to result in a stitch density variation in the order of a few millimetres, and a displacement of the other wedge to result in a variation on the order of the tenths of a millimetre.
- Advantageously, the
inclined portion 111 of the second wedge, which has the steeper gradient, is configured step-like such that for each step there would correspond one preset stitch density. - Further, the
lever 116 is held in constant contact with the inclined portion of the second wedge by acontact spring 119 acting on theslide 19, through thebracket 18. - In order to shift the wedges in the actuation direction, there is provided an actuation means which, in this second embodiment of the device, comprises a pair of
ratchet mechanisms 120a and 120b, which are individually reciprocable in a parallel direction to the actuation direction of the adjustment wedges, and each engageable in succession at one end 121a, 121b, respectively, into grooves defined by a plurality of serrations 122a, 122b carried on the working face of each of the two adjustment wedges. - The plurality of
serrations 122a and 122b extend parallel to the actuation direction, and each tooth has its flanks configured such that the ratchet mechanisms will engage into the grooves during their forward feed phase and slide over the flank of a tooth during the return phase. - The ends 123a and 123b of the ratchet mechanisms, opposite to the ends engageable with the serration valleys, are in turn engageable, through an
actuating rod 124, with acontrol cam 125 carried on the machine to move the ratchet mechanisms forward. The ratchet mechanisms can complete their return phase by means of bias springs 126a and 126b which are attached to thecover 127 of theframe 107. - The ends 123a and 123b of the ratchet mechanisms are slidable loosely inside a
block 128, rigidly associated with thebottom wall 114 of theframe 107 such that the ratchet mechanisms can swing and disengage from the grooves on the adjustment wedges during their return movements. Provided close to the ends 123a and 123b of the ratchet mechanisms is acutout 129a, respectively 129b, which defines astop shoulder 130a, respectively 130b, thereby a stop means can be inserted between the frame and ratchet mechanisms to inhibit return of the ratchet mechanism. This stop means may comprise a pair ofpins 131a and 131b, respectively, which are driven electromagnetically by a programming member of the machine, such as amicroprocessor 170. To prevent the adjustment wedges from moving back on the ratchet mechanisms being returned, there is provided a locking means comprising essentially a pair ofspring clips 132a and 132b associated with theframe 107, which engages successively inside the adjustment wedge grooves located upstream of the ratchet mechanism in the direction of advancement of the wedge. - The actuating means also comprises a clearing means for cancelling the displacements assumed by the adjustment wedges, essentially comprising a shaped plate 133 reciprocatingly movable parallel to the actuation direction of the adjustment wedge and engageable at one end, through a deflector 134, with a zero
setting cam 135 carried on the machine and at the other end with theclips 132a and 132b and with the ratchet mechanisms to disengage them simultaneously from the grooves. - Since each wedge is forwardly movable against the force of bias springs 136a and 136b, attached to the frame cover, on disengaging the clips and ratchet mechanisms from the grooves, the wedges are immediately returned, thereby the density adjustment is reset.
- For completeness of illustration, it should be added that the shaped plate 133 has an
elevation 137 engaged in a slot 138 formed in the frame cover to guide its movement. - With reference to Figures 18 to 23, the device according to the invention, in a third embodiment thereof generally designated with the
reference numeral 201, comprises two adjustment wedges 105a and 106a which, similarly to the second embodiment, are carried slidably on a frame 107a. Each adjustment wedge has a working surface 108a, 109a, respectively, with at least one portion 110a, 111a, respectively, which is inclined with respect to the actuation direction of each wedge. The two wedges engage slidably together through contacting surfaces 112a, 113a, respectively, as presented by each wedge at the opposed side from the working surface, in parallel with the actuation direction. The two wedges bear slidably on the bottom wall 114a of the frame 107a, and can perform small oscillations crosswise to the working surface for the same reason already set forth in discussing the second embodiment. - As for the
items 115a, 116a, 117a, 118a, reference may be had to what has been specified in connection with the items 115,116,117,118 of the second embodiment. - In order to shift the wedges along the actuation direction, there is provided a drive means which comprises a plurality of small control plates, generally designated with the
reference numeral 140, which are laid side-by-side with mutually different working lengths and movable longitudinally in a substantially parallel direction to the actuation direction mentioned above, and selectively engageable with the adjustment wedges. - More specifically, the plurality of control plates may be supported on an
oscillable element 141 which is oscillably movable about a substantially prependicular axis to the actuation direction of the adjustment wedges and is laid on a parallel plane thereto. Each control plate, moreover, can be oscillated in a substantially perpendicular plane to the oscillation axis of the oscillable element in moving from an inoperative position to one or more operative positions to engage with the adjustment wedges. In actual practice, the oscillable element would be located with the plurality of control plates on a plane overlying the two wedges, and the oscillation of each drive plate bring the latter closer to the bottom wall 114a of the frame 107a to interfere with one end of an adjustment wedge, and the successive forward oscillation of the rocking element would take the drive plate to urge the adjustment wedge along the actuation direction. Each of the control plates has oneend portion 142 hinged to the oscillable element and theother end 143 arranged to face one of the two adjustment wedges. Thisend 143 facing the adjustment wedges is configured with one or more steps which are engageable in succession, through a controlled oscillation of the control plate, with the respective adjustment wedge and which provide for the displacement of the adjustment wedge itself. For controlling this oscillation, there have been provided two sets of control plates, with a first set 140a being supported on a first supportingplate 144 as well as on the oscillable element and on a second supportingplate 145, each carrying apivot pin pins holes plate 150 is provided which holds a second set of drive plates 140b through a pin 51 which fits loosely through ahole 152 in the drive plates of the second set. In this case, the supportingplate 150 may act in turn as a control plate. Each of the control plates and supporting plates may be individually held in the inoperative position, that is confronting the respective adjustment wedge fully above the adjustment wedge itself, by selector means, such aselectromagnets 153 controlled by a programming member of the machine. Withholding or releasing the supporting plates results in a restriction or increase of the oscillation toward the bottom wall of the frame, by the control plates carried thereon upon the latter being released by the electromagnet, thus deciding with which step the released control plate will interfere with its respective adjustment wedge. - In order to facilitate the oscillation of the control plates and supporting plates toward the bottom wall of the frame, there are provided elastic means such as
springs 154 which engage with theend 142 of the plates and with a portion of the oscillable element, whilst to facilitate the electromagnetic contact with each plate, there is provided, at theend 142, acutout 155 which engages with adog 156, rigid with the frame 107a, upon the oscillable element effecting its return movement. - The oscillable element is driven in its forward movement by a
link rod 157 which has one end in contact with said oscillable element and the other end engageable with acontrol cam 125a carried on the machine. For the return movement of the element, there are provided elastic bias means which engage the oscillable element with the frame 107a, not shown in the drawings for clarity. - Similarly to the second embodiment, there is provided, in this third embodiment of the device, a stop means, such as a
pin 158 insertable into the frame 107a behind the oscillatingarms 159 of the oscillable element after the latter has completed its forward stroke, to lock the stitch density adjustment on the value sought. - For completeness of illustration, it should be added that there provided elastic bias means 180 applied to the two adjustment wedges to hold them close against the plate actuating them and to reset their positions, there being provided a
stop ledge 181 on the bottom wall 114a of the frame 107a. - Further explained herein below is the operation of the second and third embodiments of the device according to this invention, the operation of the first embodiment of the device being apparent from the foregoing discussion. It will be assumed, for clarity, that the step-like inclined portion of the second adjustment wedge produces a displacement of the
stitch cam 22 equal to 1 mm per step, and that the inclined portion of the first wedge produces a displacement in the 0 to 0.9 millimetres range. - When an adjustment of the stitch density is sought, for example, corresponding to 5.3 mm, with the second embodiment of the device one would proceed as follows. The
rod 124 cyclically contacts thecontrol cam 125 defining an identical movement and simultaneously acting on the two ratchet mechanisms 121a and 121b which actuate the two wedges causing each time a displacement of one millimetre and one tenth of a millimetre. On reaching a displacement distance of 3.3 mm, from the machine programming member there is issued a command to insert the pin 131b which inhibits the return movement of the ratchet mechanism 120b and prevents it from completing its return stroke and engaging then with the successive groove, as shown in Figure 14. Theratchet mechanism 120a continues instead to be driven by the control cam until a displacement of 5.3 mm is achieved, then thepin 131a is also inserted to lock theratchet mechanism 120a such that the contact with the following elevations on the cam does not affect the forward movement of the adjustment wedges, as apparent in Figure 15. - When the density adjustment is to be changed, for example, to a density of 0.8 mm, the adjustment is first reset by having the deflector 134 interfere with the
reset cam 135, after disengaging thepins 131a a and 131b. The shaped plate 133 will pull out thesprings 131a and 132b of the grooves and hold the ratchet mechanisms disengaged from the grooves such that the two adjustment wedges can be returned to their original positions, as clearly illustrated in Figure 16. Successively, after the second adjustment wedge has been pushed for a first time to establish its set position, the pin 131b is inserted and the ratchet mechanism 121a continues to be operated until a displacement of 0.8 mm is achieved, as shown in Figure 17. Thereupon, thepin 131a is inserted to lock the adjustment on 0.8 mm. - In the third embodiment, the displacement of the two wedges is produced by the
oscillable element 141 being oscillated, by the drive plates being at their operative positions, and by the extent of their oscillatory movements at this operative position. - After the rocking element is returned, the
dog 156 by engaging with thecutouts 155 will move the plates back toward theelectromagnets 153, thereby, depending on the stitch density sought, the programming member will selectively lower some plates. In order to provide several operative positions for the drive plates which have their ends facing their respective step-like adjustment wedges, the programming member will withhold or release the supporting plates. Taking into consideration the first control plate set 140a, if one wishes to engage the uppermost step in a control plate, one proceeds by withholding the two supporting plates and releasing the corresponding control plate; if one wishes to engage a step at a successive level, one disengages the supportingplate 145; for the second next step, one withholds the supportingplate 145 and releases the supportingplate 144; for the lowermost step, one releases both supportingplates - The controlled oscillation of the plates is made feasible by the dimensioning and positioning of the
holes - After selecting and positioning the plates, the
link rod 157 will contact thedrive cam 125a thereby the oscillable element performs a forward oscillation and the selected control plates push on the adjustment wedges. At the end of the oscillation the oscillable element, is locked by the programming member of the machine by means of thepin 158 which will inhibit the return oscillation thereof. - The control cam comprises, in this case, two
elevations first elevation 160, or setting elevation, operates with the rocking element still locked and facilitates disengaging thepin 158, whilst theelevation 161 controls the oscillation of the rocking element in the forward direction. Thiselevation 161 has at the start a slight step which disengages the plates from thedog 156 and thus permits their oscillation toward the bottom wall of the frame 107a. - It has been found in practice that the device of this invention fully achieves its objects by providing a high number of stitch density variations without manual intervention; furthermore, in the second and third embodiments, by providing numerical indicia on the inclined portions of the adjustment wedges, it becomes possible to immediately control the density of the stitch set, and optionally, during the trial runs to tune the machine, quickly manual emergency intervention is made possible to shift the adjustment wedges manually and avoid breakage should the stitch be too dense in relation to the yarn being used.
- The device herein is susceptible to many modifications and changes without departing from the purview of the invention as defined by the claims; one of these is shown in Figure 11 and is a foil set having on the working faces 3 a single inoperative zone 4 and a
single operative zone 5. The flow direction is no longer strictly perpendicular to the axis of the foil set, thereby the displacement of therod 13 is not strictly equal to the thickness which caused it, but the largest error is negligible as regards the feasible knitting processes. - In practicing the invention, the materials used and the dimensions may be any ones contingent on requirements and the state of the art.
