Definitions

  • This invention relates to a modification of the well known type of sinker cap and in particular of the casting off cam carried thereby.
  • the invention is of particular value in connection with the knitting of sheer fine gauge ladies hosiery although it is not limited thereto.
  • the characteristics and mode of operation of a sinker cap whereby the sinkers are controlled for the draw-- ing, knitting and casting oil? loops is well known and requires no description.
  • the casting on cam is a fixed cam which while it may be manually adjusted when the machine is idle retains a fixed position when the machine is in operation.
  • Fig. 1 is a plan view partly in section of part of a sinker cap in which the invention is embodied;
  • FIG. 2 is an elevation of a part of the same cap also showing the same form of the invention.
  • the casting ofi cam should be correspondingly positioned.
  • the casting off cam is shown in this position at I in Fig. 1. It has been moved into this position by the mechanism indicated at 8 which in general resembles the mechanism 2 already mentioned.
  • the depth to which casting off cam I is moved is determined by an adjusting screw 9 which is threaded through stud I0 which stud is carried by casting oif cam 7 and is the means by which the cam is operated upon by mechanism 8. Adjusting screw 9 engages with the outer surface of sinker cap 5 when the cam has been moved to its innermost position.
