Definitions

  • a needle board 2 is mounted on a supporting means l and is secured thereto by bolts and nuts 5.
  • the bolt 5 passes through transversal slots 6 inthe needle board 2 so that the same may be adjusted transversely on the supporting means I.
  • a stationary needle comb 'f' constituting a retaining means is mounted on the supporting means I, and the distance between the supporting means and the needle board 2, on one hand, and the needle comb I on the other hand may-be gradually adjusted by lever means 8.
  • a longitudinally movable actuating member 3 is guided by rails l and provided with an eccentric groove 3 inwhich the projecting portions I0' pi the horizontal needles IG are guided.
  • the .walls of the groove 3 constitute cam means for consecutively moving the needles I0 in a trans- 'versal direction' when the movable actuating member 3 is longitudinally moved.
  • the horizon- ⁇ tal needles it indicated in inactive position by reference numeral I2 are movable independently of each other from a retracted position indilcatedby the reference numeral II to an advanced position, and each horizontal needle ill passes during such movement between two adjacent vertical needles of the needle comb 'I'.
  • the horizontal needles have hooked ends which are closed by pivoted tongues IG".
  • the movable actuating member 3 is provided with an arm I4 on which a retaining means I4 is mounted.
  • the retaining means I4 is provided ,with an operating face which is located below the plane defined by the row of horizontal needles and extends intermediate the needle comb 'I and the line dened by the hooked ends of the horizontal needles I0 in advanced position.
  • Thread inserting means 9 are mounted on the arm I4 so the new thread is pulled therethrough and a new loop is formed. rihis new loop passes through the hooked endof the horizontal needle in retracted position behind the needle comb while the knitted piece is suspended thereon in front of the needle comb. Thereupon, the operation is repeated.
  • the size of the newly formed loops may be varied. Such adjustment may be carried out by transversely adjusting the needle comb 1, or the needle board 2.
  • a hand knitting apparatus comprising in combination, elongated supporting means; an elongated needle board mounted on said supporting means; an elongated needle comb including a row of vertical parallel spaced needles located in front of said supporting means; a row of spaced parallel horizontal needles transversely movably mounted on said needle board and projecting therefrom with a free hooked end portion and a shaft portion; movable actuating means for moving consecutively each of said horizontal needles from a retracted position with -said free hooked end portion thereof located closely behind said vertical needles to an advanced position between two adjacent vertical needles with said free hooked end portion and a shaft portion located in front of said vertical needles, and then back again to said retracted position; retaining means secured to and movable with said actuating means and having an operating face located below the plane defined by said row of horizontal needles and extending intermediate the advanced position of said free hooked end portions of said horizontal needles and said row of vertical n eedles, said retaining means being adapted to pull loops out of the hooked
