The object of our invention is to improve hand knitting machines for the execution of knitting work in various designs, identical with designs obtained by hand knitting or crocheting.
The principal object of this invention, is the provision of a pair of bearings for the so-called comb, which bearings, being one opposite the other, have specially shaped grooves that serve both to sustain and to guide pivots at the ends of the comb. -Thes bearings are, in fact, so shaped as to allow the comb, that remains always parallel to itself, to be moved along certain lines, to rotate round its axis constituted by two pivots, and finally to be suspended in various positions, all this in such a way as to obtain the greatest facility for operating the comb itself during the operations of unhooking the weft from the sinkers and of releasing the fabric from the needles, which operations become semi-automatic. The continuous path of the comb during the movement imparted to it by hand, ensures the regular taking up of the stitches, or loops, from the ends of the sinkers, and the subsequent release of the fabric from the needles, as well as uniformity of the finished fabric and speed of operation, while no skill is required from the operator.
The invention may be applied and in different embodiment, according to particular industrial or commercial consideration, without departing from the essential characteristics and from the scop of the present invention.
The above described improvements will be clearer understood by means of the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the improved knitting machine according to the present invention. This description refers to the attached drawings in which:
Fig. l is a front view of the machine on a reduced scale;
Fig. 2 is also a fragmentary front view of the same machine on a larger scale;
Fig. 3 shows a cross section of the machine on line 33 in Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 a longitudinal section of the same machine on the line 6-4 in Fig. 3;
Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section of one of two symmetrical devices for regulating the distance of the comb, taken on line 55 in Fig. 2;
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary plan view;
Fig. 7 a side elevation of an end bearing; and
Fig. 8 is a side elevation of an end bearing, with the comb disposed in different positions.
The general arrangement of the machine is shown in Fig. 1. The machine is substantially composed of a body from whose front part project the extreme ends of the sinkers, between which the needles of the comb l are inserted. The comb I is supported at both its ends by bearings 2, 2 whose position towards the front of the machine can be changed by operating the devices 3, 3. On the top side of the machines body, a longitudinal aperture is provided through which the movable members ending in the handles 4, 4 are protruding to the outside, which elements serve to operate the sinkers. The operated parts are all assembled in a convenient position for the operator, the machines front being inclined backwards as shown especially in Fig. 3.
In its structural part, the machine is composed of an inside and an outside body (Figs. 2, 3, 4) enclosed within the terminal hoods 6 that form the heads. This inside body consists of .two walls 5 and 5' at the front and rear respectively. The hoods 6 connect and support the walls and, with their supports 7, sustain the machine on the table or any other base. The movable parts of the interior are sustained by the inside frame 8, whose extreme ends are supported by the head parts 6. At these extreme ends of the frame are also fixed the sockets 9 of the rod I0 that constitutes the guide and support of the movable members II on whose ends l2 the handles 4 are fitted. The particular shape of the guiding means l6, clearly shown in Fig. 3, ensures the correct position and alignment of all the movable members.
The movable members II bear, at their lower part, the portions 13 to which the activating cams 14 are fitted. Whenever the manually operated members 4 are pushed to the left or right, the curved profile of the said cams l4 effects the advance or return of the sinkers I5, I 5 by acting on the U-shaped portion l5, l5 of a group of sinkers, which are individually pushed outwards, by independent springs l6, l6. In order to keep tight the tapes i1 and [8 that back the sinkers after the passage of the movable members, and to ensure the return of the tapes, which movement, in view of the flexibility of the tapes cannot be obtained by applying pressure, the tapes are arranged in a closed loop. The closed loop is constituted by the lower portions of the ribbons l9 and 20 returned by the lateral pulleys 21, and extending inside the guides 22 that are fixed to the frame 8 by means of the sockets 23.
In order to regulate the size of the knitted loops, the distance of the comb I from the front part of the machine can be changed, 1. e. a variation is brought about in the relative position of the hooked ends 24 of the sinkers on the one hand, and the needles of the comb l on the other hand. The devices 3, 3 which bring about this change of position and thus regulate the size of the stitches, are shown in Figs. 2 and 5. The bearings 2 of the comb I are distanced from the front plate 5 of the machines body by an axial cam 26 on whose inclined periphery the end of the screw 21 abuts, which screw, as it is sunk into the combs body 2, constitutes at the same time an initial means for registration, and for subsequent correction, of the system. The axial cam 26 is fixed to the sector 28, at whose peripherial part the handle 29- is fitted in such away as to be axially movable and to be resiliently pushed inwards, thus causing its pivot 30 with its extreme end to enter into one of the holes 31, 3| on the main part of the device. In this way, the device itself is fixed in the desired position. This device is not only easy to handle, but it also prevents the otherwise easily incurred mistake of registering the support on one side in a different position from that on the other side, because it is sufficient to note any possible dissymmetry in the position of the two handles 29.
The constructional and functional characteristics of the bearings 2 of the comb i constitute the main feature of the above described machine. They are illustrated particularly in Figs. 5, f7 and 8. The bearings 2 are constituted by shaped blocks that are preferably made of a stamped plastic materia They have inner oppositely arranged faces formed with cavities 32 for receiving the pivots 33 that support the comb I.
Fig. '7 shows clearly, on a greatly enlarged scale, the particular shape of the cavities 32. These cavities consist of a groove sunk into the fiat face 34 of every bearing 2 and has an opening 35 through which the pivots 33 may be introduced, in the direction indicated by (i, into the cavity itself. Apart from this aperture 35, the cavity represents a closed path in whose upper part a recess 35 is provided. In this recess 36, and particularly in the position 33d shown in Fig. 8, the pivot of the comb is kept, whenever the latter is to be maintained in the position Id, i. e. during the operations of disposing theyarn inside the channel formed by the needles of the comb, and the extreme ends of the sinkers in their advanced position 24d. While maintaining the combsuspended by means of its pivots rotating inside the recess 36 as bearing, the comb may be turned up in the sense indicated by E, thus assuming the position le. In this Way, being pulled downwards by the loops, the weft passes around the needles and makes knots with the yarn that is held in zig-zag formation by the sinkers. The comb remains automatically in the position le, because it abuts against the abutments 31 that are provided on the upper por-- tion of the bearings 2.
If returned downside in the direction indicated by F, the comb is again in starting position. The subsequent row of stitches is obtained by manually moving the comb in such a way as to make its pivots run along the path defined by the grooves indicated by the arrows in Fig. 8, until they return to the recesses33d. The particular shape of the grooves ensures a perfect and easy operation, not carried out by'holding the comb in hand as in the known machines, but by means of a well defined guide. Anyzmistake is avoided by the presence. of the cam 38 which makes'it impossible for the pivotpushed inthe the position indicated by Figs.
direction indicated by the arrow 9 to slip out of the bearing, and forces it instead to move downwards in the direction h. Another cam 39 forces the same pivot after its nearly circular movement to move downwards again in the direction 1, while finally a third cam 40 stops the pivot in its movement by preventing it from getting into the direction g and guides it-instead to return into its starting position 36.
When all the needles 25 of the comb l are in 3 and 8, i. e. pointing directed upwards, they take part in the formation of the same number of loops. In order to eliminate certain needles from the operation, these particular needles are lowered so far as to placetheir extreme ends below the extreme ends of the sinkers. This is easily done by throwing back the hinged part M in Fig. 3 of the comb, thus opening the comb itself, and shifting the hooked butt 25' at the lower end of the needles 25 shank from cavity 52 to cavity 43.
The above described improvements have been illustrated exclusively in one preferred embodiment thereof. The invention, however, is not intended to be limited by the details shown. Numerous other modifications of the machine may be'made without departing fromv the spirit of the invention. As others, with a current knowledge of this art, might make use of some particulars of construction and operation as described, the invention should not be intended to remain limited by what has been disclosed above, but should be understood to cover the. whole range of equivalences, particularly as defined in the appended claims.
