IMPROVEMENT IN WEIGHT-HOOKS FOR KNITTlNG-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No- 137,778, dated Apiil 15, 1873; application filed t December 26, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES H. KOEGEL, in the city of Bufl'alo, State of New York, have invented a new tool with all kinds of circular knitting-machines, which I term a Grasper, andwhich is constructed as follows, reference being had to the accompanying drawing.
A weight-hook, A, to which the necessary weights may be attached, is firmly fastened to a cup or thimble, B, out of which extend a number of (say 8-12) elastic wire-hooks, 0, (about 4-6 inches long,) which are intended to be applied to the knitted work, to draw it downward by means of the Weight, in all cases where a flat extension of a tubular web is to be knitted, as with the heel and toe of stockings and the like. As said extending parts of the tube being knit may-be either wide or narrow, there is a regulator provided in a bar of wire, D, wound spirally about the elastic hooks, as shown, and which, being moved either up or down, will collect or spread said hooks to suit the width of the work.
I claim-- The combination of the thimble B, hook A, elastic hooks G, and regulator D, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
