Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention consists of arranging rubber knitting machines facing each other in front of this machine equipped with a carriage for transfer knitting so that their knitting needles are perpendicular to each other, and connecting the rubber knitting machines to this machine. This invention relates to a double-plate hand knitting machine that can be lowered to a non-use position where the knitting relationship is severed.

Conventionally, when performing transfer knitting on the double-plate hand knitting machine, as shown in FIG.
is lowered to a non-use position, the transfer knitting carriage 3 is mounted on the machine 2, the knitted fabric 4 is hung between the machine 2 and the rubber knitting machine 1, and the required weight 5 is hung. ing.

By the way, the knitting needles 6 are placed in a state where the knitted fabric 4 is substantially vertical.
In contrast, the machine 2 is attached to the knitting stand 7 with the front side facing upward, and the knitting needles 6 move forward and backward in the same tilted state, so these knitting needles Stitch 8 hanging from 6
tends to be displaced to the rear of the knitting needle 6, as shown in FIG.

In other words, when performing stitch transfer knitting, when the transfer knitting needle that suspends the stitch to be transferred and the succession knitting needle that inherits the stitch of the transfer knitting needle are selected in two positions, front and rear, by the needle selection device of the carriage 3. , the stitch 8 on the open collar 9 of the transfer knitting needle 6 may be inadvertently displaced backwards due to the forward movement of the transfer knitting needle 6 due to the needle selection, and the stitch 8 may fall out of the flap, or the stitch 8 on the open collar 9 of the transfer knitting needle 6 may be accidentally displaced backwards and the stitch 8 may fall out of the flap 9, or the stitch 8 on the open collar 9 of the transfer knitting needle 6 may be inadvertently displaced backward and may fall off the collar 9, or the stitch 8 on the open collar 9 of the transfer knitting needle 6 may be inadvertently displaced backwards and may fall off the collar due to the forward movement of the transfer knitting needle 6 due to the needle selection. When the transfer knitting needle 6 is further advanced after the needle selection described above in order to act on the front needle raising cam 11, or due to vibration, the stitch 8 which is also on the bellows 9 is inadvertently displaced backwards and the stitch 8 falls off. (Fig. 6), there was a drawback that the stitches were not transferred and the stitches fell off.

Therefore, in order to avoid the above-mentioned drawback, the knitted fabric 4' is hung down to the needle bed 12 side of the rubber knitting machine 1 (dashed line in FIG. 5), thereby preventing the aforementioned tendency of the stitches 8 to be displaced to the rear of the knitting needles 6. Although removal is being carried out,
The knitted fabric 4' hanging down on the needle bed 12 side gets caught on the sinker needles 13, knitting needles 14, needle gap regulating plate 15, etc. of the rubber knitting machine 1, causing the stitches to become drawn or the tension in the knitted fabric 4' to be lost. If the stitches 8 suspended from the knitting needles 6 float and cannot be knitted, and if the knitted fabric 4' touches the needle bed 12 and gets dirty, new defects will occur.

In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology, the present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology at once by equipping a rubber knitting machine with a knitting fabric guide body that covers the needle bed and guiding the knitted fabric to the front of the rubber knitting machine. This is what we are trying to solve.

First, the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described below.

Reference numeral 16 designates this machine on which a carriage 17 for transfer knitting is mounted, and a rubber knitting machine 18 placed oppositely in a predetermined relationship on the front side thereof is lowered to a non-use position so as not to interfere with transfer knitting.

Reference numeral 19 denotes a knitting fabric guide body, which is made of synthetic resin and has an oblong plate shape, and has the same length as the needle bed 20 of the rubber knitting machine 18.
A sinker needle with a length equivalent to 1/2 or 1/3 21
It has a horizontally long rectangular guide surface 23 with a width approximately corresponding to the width from the to the lower (rear) carriage rail 22,
An upper locking portion 24 and a lower locking portion 2 having an arcuate cross section are formed from the upper edge and lower edge of this guide surface 23, respectively.
5 are extended together.

Then, by engaging the upper locking part 24 with the sinker needle 21 and forcibly fitting the lower locking part 25 into the carriage rail 22, the knitted fabric guide 19 is moved from the sinker needle 21 to the carriage rail. Rubber knitting machine 18 with the part covering 22
The upper and lower locking parts 24 and 25 of the knitted fabric guide 19 are elastically fitted to the sinker needle 21 and the carriage rail 22 due to their own elasticity, so that they cannot accidentally fall off due to vibration etc. There is nothing to do.

Therefore, when knitting knitting stitches, the rubber knitting machine 18
A required number of knitted fabric guides 19 are attached to the knitted fabric 26, and a weight hook 27 and a weight 28 are hung on the lower side of the knitted fabric 26.
The knitted fabric 26 is applied to the guide surface 23 of the knitted fabric guide body 19.

In this way, as the knitted fabric 26 is knitted, it is guided by the guide surface 23, that is, it hangs smoothly without being caught by the sinker needles 21, knitting needles 29, etc.
In front of the rubber knitting machine 18, the part above the upper locking part 24 is spaced apart from the front vertically elongated rectangular tooth gap regulation plates 30 (only the right side is shown) attached to the left and right sides of the upper side of the rubber knitting machine 18. Suspend along the sides to maintain the required tension.

Next, in the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the length of the knitted fabric guide body 31 is made approximately the same as the length of the needle bed 20, and the upper locking part 32 is The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the second embodiment is engaged with the second embodiment, but the other configurations are the same.

That is, the knitted fabric guide body 31 has a horizontally long rectangular guide surface 33 having approximately the same length as the needle bed 20, and a flat plate-shaped upper locking portion 32 is integrally extended diagonally upward from the upper edge of the guide surface 33. Further, on both sides of this upper locking part 32, horizontally long rectangular locking holes 34, 34 are formed, into which the tip portion bent obliquely upward on the front side of the gap regulating plate 30 is tightly fitted, and the lower side of the guide surface 33 is formed. A flat plate-shaped lower locking portion 35 extends perpendicularly from the edge.

Both locking holes 34, 3 of the upper locking portion 32
4 is fitted to the tip of the weave gap regulating plate 30 and the lower locking portion 35 is forcibly engaged with the carriage rail 22, so that the knitted fabric guide 31 can be moved from the weave gap regulating plate 30 to the carriage rail 22. The upper and lower locking parts 32 and 35 are engaged and pressed against the gap regulating plate 30 and the carriage rail 22 by their own elasticity, so that the knitting can be performed with ease. There is no risk of it falling off accidentally due to vibration, etc.

Therefore, the knitted fabric guide 31 also allows the knitted fabric 2 to be
6 is a tooth gap regulation plate 30, a sinker needle 21 and a knitting needle 2
Rubber knitting machine 1 hangs smoothly without getting caught on 9 etc.
8 along the proximal side to maintain the required tension.

As is clear from the above, according to the present invention, a synthetic resin fabric guide is attached to the rubber knitting machine lowered to an unused position during transfer knitting, and the upper locking part is connected to the sinker needle or the stitch gap. It is detachably attached by engaging the regulation plate and engaging the lower locking part with the lower (rear) carriage rail, and the part extending from the sinker needle or gap regulation plate to the carriage rail is attached to this knitted fabric guide. and guide the knitted fabric with its guide surface so that it hangs smoothly without getting caught on the gap regulation plate, sinker needles, knitting needles, etc.
Since it is suspended along the front side (front) of the rubber knitting machine to maintain the required tension, the stitches are pulled perpendicularly to the knitting needles that are tilted upwards in the front direction, thereby preventing the stitches from being made carelessly. Since the tendency to shift backwards can be eliminated, the stitches on the collar are inadvertently displaced backwards due to needle selection and stitch transfer operations, or due to vibrations, etc., causing the stitches to fall through the collar and the stitches cannot be transferred, resulting in dropped stitches. Then there will be no inconvenience.

In addition, since the required tension is always applied to the knitted fabric, the stitches suspended from the knitting needles will not lift up and become impossible to knit, and the knitted fabric will not touch the needle bed of the rubber knitting machine and get dirty. Nor.

Furthermore, the knitted fabric guide is made of synthetic resin and can be easily attached by utilizing the elasticity of the upper and lower locking parts themselves.Moreover, there is no need to provide any mounting means such as screws, and the structure is simple and can be provided at low cost. In addition, by removing it when not in use, it does not interfere with other knitting operations.
