Abstract

Improvements in the construction of circular machines for the rapid manufacture of knitted undergarments, with draft pattern, characterized by the fact of having a cylinder of significantly higher than normal, being composed of two parts; the superior and the inferior. In the upper part, the tongue needles and the transfer plates are accommodated, while in the lower part, in which only one of every three slots is milled, the drawing "jacks" are located; under each pair of transfer plates a drawing "jack" is placed, putting the plates in a suitable form to carry out the transfer of the picking nets of the needles of the plate that for this purpose work in pairs; the needles of the cylinder and the plate are distributed in a formation of 2, in work and 1 out of action, to make a grooved (2/2) while for the obtaining of the grooved point, the feeders are distributed in groups of four. Three of them are only for the work of the normal grooved point, at the same time the plate of said feeders are kept at a predetermined height, so that it protrudes from the upper cylinder sufficiently in order to collect the intermeshes that when they reach the room game transfer them to the plate needle. As the "jacks" approach the first feeder of each group, while the needle cylinder rotates in the counterclockwise direction, its lower end comes out, and they are allowed to remain in this position, until upon reaching an ascension cam, they are driven by this making the transfer plates that have received the entremallas in the second and third feeders, transfer these entremallas to the opposite needles of the plate, (which also work in pairs ) before reaching the fourth feeder. In this way, the groove of normal draft is obtained. As an alternative, it is also possible, using all the feeders, to obtain larger draft holes based on drawings in which the intermeshes are collected in three consecutive feeders, before being transferred to the needles of the plate, provided that the thread is able to withstand the extra effort that it represents. The twelve feeders are divided into three groups, and when all the transfer plates, working in pairs, in a single slot, are in work, they collect and transfer the mesh three times to each revolution of the needle cylinder, during which they make twelve passes.
