In known flat-bed knitting machines the tightness of knitting is adjusted by means of a device of complicated construction provided on the carriage which carries the stitch cams of the machine. The heavy elements of this adjustment device must continuously be moved together with the carriage. In known adjustment devices, wherein a selected stitch cam is shifted in position by means of shift bolts, guidance of the stitch cam presents particularly great difficulties. Since the place for the adjustment of the device must be readily accessible, the shift bolts rest via setting tabs on the surface of the carriage and must transmit the value set to the cam stitch present above the needle bed. Since the shiftable bolts lie in between, the transmission of movement is both difficult and inaccurate. An indication for the reading of the position must furthermore be arranged in a readily visible place, whereby further difficulties in construction and movement transmission result.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a device for adjusting the position of a stitch cam which does not have the disadvantages indicated above and which makes possible an easy and accurate transmission of a preselected position of the stitch cams.
This object is obtained, in accordance with the present invention, by means of an electrically controlled or regulated electric motor which is arranged to effect displacement of the stitch cams.
In one suitableembodiment of the invention the adjustment device comprises a continuously operating electric motor for adjustment of the stitch cams and an electric bridge circuit including an electric displacement pickup and at least one individually adjustable electric setting device by means of which the electric motor is controlled.
The electric setting devices may be potentiometers mounted in a conveniently accessible location. The electric displacement pickup is preferably firmly connected to the stitch cam. The adjustment device of the present invention is preferably so developed that the different electric setting devices are automatically connected in optionally controllable manner with the control apparatus of the knitting machine.
Apparatus according to the present invention can be so constructed that the stitch cam together with its entire adjustment device is supported in such a manner that it can be moved upward against spring action in a lock in a vertical direction by the needle butts of the knitting machine needles. The adjusting device comprises in this connection, for instance, means supporting and guiding of the stitch cam, an adjusting spindle, a displacement pickup and an electric motor.
One advantage of the apparatus in accordance with the invention resides in the fact that the adjusting devices are no longer contained on the carriage, while the electric motor itself together with its corresponding measuring and actuating means is arranged on the carriage.
There has thus been outlined rather broadly the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are, of course, additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject of the claims appended hereto. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception upon which this disclosure is based may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures for carrying out the several purposes of the invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent construction as do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
A specific embodiment of the invention has been chosen for purposes of illustration and description, and is shown in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of the specification, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a schematic wiring diagram for a stitch cam adjustment device according to one embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a schematic top view of a removeable part of an adjustment device according to the present invention and showing a control and measuring unit for the positioning of a stitch cam;
FIG. 3 is a top view of an adjusting knob with a vernier scale, for making adjustments to the circuit of FIG.
FIG. 4 is a view, partially in section, of an adjusting device in accordance with the present invention, and showing that device in its upward position.
As shown in the wiring diagram of FIG. I, there is provided a bridge circuit 9 for supplying current to a continuously operating electric motor for the displacement of stitch cams. One half of the bridge circuit 9 comprises one of four manually adjustable selection potentiometers l, 2, 3 and 4 which are arranged in easily accessible fashion on the main body of the knitting machine. Each of the potentiometers l, 2, 3 or 4 can be connected optionally into the bridge circuit 9 by means of a switch 5, 6, 7 or 8 associated with it. The switches 5, 6, 7 and 8 are located in the control apparatus of the knitting machine and are, if necessary, automatically selected and actuated. The remaining half of the bridge circuit 9 comprises a displacement pickup 10 which is, for instance, also a potentiometer and is connected with the connected selection potentiometer l, 2, 3 or 4 to complete the bridge. The bridge circuit 9 is fed by a source of voltage 9a.
The displacement pickup 10 which, as is shown in FIG. 2, is firmly connected with the stitch cam 11, is displaced by the rotation of a motor 12 which is controlled via an amplifier 13 corresponding to the detuning of the bridge circuit 9. The motor 12 rotates in a given direction until equalization of voltage has been obtained in the bridge circuit 9 corresponding to the adjustment of the potentiometer l, 2, 3 or 4 connected at the time.
As can be noted from FIG. 2, the stitch cam isguided in a cam plate 14, and is pulled firmly by a tension spring 15 via a stop 16 against a transport nut 17. The transport nut 17 travels on an adjustment spindle 18 which is lightly supported in bearings 19 and 20. A bevel gear 22, firmly connected with the adjustment spindle 18, is driven by a bevel gear 21 which is firmly seated on the shaft of the motor 12 so that, depending on the direction of the rotation of the motor 12, the transport nut 17, and thus the stitch cam 11, is moved up or down. The displacement pickup is rigidly connected with the stitch cam 11 so that it indicates the exact position thereof.
The potentiometers l, 2, 3 and 4 are each adjusted by means of individual rotary knobs 24 bearing a vernier scale 23, as shown in FIG. 3. The rotary knobs for this adjustment are arranged on the main frame of the knitting machine at a place which is readily accessible.
In FIG. 4 there is shown a view, partially in section, of the adjusting device in accordance with the invention. Since upon the knitting the leading stitch cam must always be swung so high that it does not pull the needles down below cam level, it would be disadvantageous if the stitch cam had to move over a large distance at each point of reversal of the carriage and if its displacement time differed from the actual adjustment time. The entire adjusting device 24 is therefore fastened to two guide bolts 27 and 28 which are guided in the carriage 26 and are pulled downwardly by a spring 29 at all times in the direction of an arrow A shown in FIG. 4. It remains in this position if the stitch cam lags, i.e. when it pulls down the needles for the stitching. At the point of reversal of the carriage the adjusting device is pressed by an inclined surface (not shown) in the direction opposite that of the arrow A shown in FIG. 4, and an electromagnet 30 shifts a detent bolt 31 into a detent groove 32 in the guide bolt 28. The entire adjusting device is so held that the switch cam 11 can no longer reach a needle butt 33. By this lifting it is possible to effect a new displacement of the stitch cam 11 for the corresponding adjustment of the tightness of the knitting during the stroke of the carriage during which the stitch cam leads.
Having thus described the invention with particular reference to the preferred form thereof, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains, after understanding the invention, that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined by the claims appended hereto.
