Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention has the following features: in the gap between the front edge of the receiving plate at the front of the needle bed and each sinker needle that stands obliquely forward and upward in front of the front edge of the receiving plate;
This invention relates to a hand knitting machine equipped with adjustment rods for adjusting knitted stitches.

Conventionally, in this type of hand knitting machine, as shown in Utility Model Application Publication No. 2115 of 1978, the lower edge of the adjustment plate was mounted on the inside of the V-shaped bent part of the sinker needle, and the Some models have been seen in which the upper edge is placed in the gap between the front edge of the receiving plate and each sinker needle, but in this case, the gap is slightly wide due to assembly errors of the sinker needles and the receiving plate. or when the thickness of the adjustment plate is slightly thinner than the gap, the upper edge of the adjustment plate becomes movable in the front-rear direction centering on the lower edge, and therefore,
When a stitch is pulled behind the sinker needle by the hook of the knitting needle as the stitches are knitted, the upper edge of the adjustment plate moves backwards due to the stitches being drawn in, and this causes the The old stitch is not completely knocked over,
Furthermore, it has been pointed out that even when two or more old stitches or old knitting yarns are knocked over at the same time, such as in tuck knitting, a serious drawback occurs in knitting in that they are not completely knocked over.

However, in the present invention, in particular, the front edge of the receiving plate has a surface facing the rear side of each sinker needle so as to create an upwardly facing V-shaped space between the front edge of the receiving plate and the rear side of each sinker needle. The V-shaped space has a front joint surface that joins to the rear surface of each of the sinker needles and a rear joint surface that joins to the front surface of the hanging piece. A long adjustment rod with a substantially triangular cross section is arranged so that the side surface is placed at approximately the same height as the upper surface of the receiving plate, so that the adjustment rod is not influenced by slight width errors of the V-shaped space. The present invention is designed to ensure stable arrangement at all times, thereby reliably eliminating the drawbacks of the prior art.

A first embodiment embodying the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a needle bed that is long in the left-right direction, and a receiving plate 3 for receiving the front portions of a large number of knitting needles 2 is provided on the front side of the needle bed. A sinker needle support plate 5 is provided to support the sinker needles 4 to be placed.

A hanging piece 3A is provided on the front edge of the receiving plate 3 and has a surface facing the rear side of each sinker needle 4 and is bent downward.

Further, in the front part of the sinker needle 4, there is a V-shaped bent part 4A bent in a substantially ■-shape, and in front of the hanging piece 3A of the receiving plate 3, there is a roughly An inclined protrusion 4B is formed that protrudes obliquely forward and upward so as to form a shaped space.

6 in the figure is a thin sheet piece interposed between the upper surface of the receiver plate and the lower surface of each knitting needle, and needle position display symbols (not shown in the figure) are printed on the upper surface of the thin sheet piece to prevent wear on the upper surface of the receiver plate. do.

This sheet piece 6 may not be provided.

7 in the figure is an adjusting rod having approximately the same length as the needle bed 1;
The cross section of the receiving plate 3 is formed into a scalene triangular shape.
a flat upper surface 7A disposed at approximately the same height as the upper surface of the
A rear joint surface 7B joined to the front surface of the hanging piece 3A and a front joint surface 7C joined to the rear slope of the inclined protrusion 4B of each sinker needle 4 are formed.

The adjustment rod 7 is operated from above the sinker needle 4 or from the left and right sides of the needle bed to set it in the state shown in FIG. 1, as necessary. The adjustment rod 7 is always supported in a stable state, and therefore, the adjustment rod 7 promotes the knockover effect of the old stitch when knitting the stitch 8, especially when knitting a small stitch or tuck stitch. It works effectively in knitting in which two or more old stitches or knitting yarns are knocked over at the same time.

A second embodiment embodying the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

Note that the same names and symbols as in the first embodiment are used for parts common to the first embodiment.

A hanging piece 3B is bent at the front edge of the receiving plate 3 and has a surface facing the rear side of each sinker needle 4 and projects obliquely forward and downward.

Reference numeral 9 in the figure is an adjustment rod having approximately the same length as the needle bed 1, and has an isosceles triangular cross section, and has an upper surface 9A, a rear joint surface 9B that joins to the front surface of the hanging piece 3B, and a front joint. A surface 9C is formed, and the lengths of the sides of the front and rear joint surfaces 9C and 9B are made equal.

The adjusting rod 9 of this embodiment is also set in the needle bed part and used in the same way as in the first embodiment, but when setting, the front joint surface 9C is set on the hanging piece. To 3B,
It can be used in the same way even if the rear joint surfaces 9B are respectively joined to the rear slopes of the inclined protrusions of each sinker needle 4, that is, the front and rear directions are reversed.

Note that the cross-sectional shape of the adjusting rod 9 may be an equilateral triangle. In this case, the setting direction can be set freely, and the setting process can be made easier.

In summary, according to the present invention, the hanging piece 3 has a surface facing the rear side of each sinker needle 4 on the front edge of the receiving plate 3.
A and 3B are provided, and a long adjustment rod 7.9 with a substantially triangular cross section is arranged in a substantially ■-shaped space between the front surface of the hanging pieces 3A and 3B and the rear surface of each sinker needle 4, Its front joint surface 7C.

9C is joined to the rear slope of each sinker needle 4, and the rear joint surfaces 7B and 9B are connected to the hanging piece 3A.

Since it is connected to the front of 3B, its adjustment rod 7,
9 is arranged so as to wedge into the V-shaped space, so that the rear side surface of each sinker needle and the hanging pieces 3A, 3
The adjustment rods 7 and 9 are completely independent of the distance error between the front edge of the V-shaped space and the width error of the V-shaped space.
can be arranged stably at all times.

That is, even if the V-shaped space becomes somewhat wider, the front joint surfaces 7C, 9C and the rear joint surfaces 7B, 9B are arranged to form a wedge shape, and the rear surface of each sinker needle 4 and Since the hanging pieces 3A and 3B are joined so as to bite into the front surfaces of the hanging pieces 3A and 3B in a wedge-like manner, the stable arrangement of the adjustment rods 7 and 9 can be maintained as is, and the adjustment rods can be prevented from falling into the lower interior of the sinker needle 4. , there is no lifting or movement in the front-to-back direction unlike the conventional one, and the knockover effect of the stitches can be reduced by increasing the size of the stitches.
No matter how small or small, it can always be achieved.
