ABSTRACT:
A stitch transfer device for a V-bed knitting machine, for transferring stitches from needles 4 in a first needle bed to needles 2 in a second needle bed comprises a carrier 5 slidably mounted on the second needle bed, a stitch transfer element 11 being mounted on carrier 5 for vertical and back and forth reciprocating movement. By means of interconnected cams, operable by rotation of a handle 21 on carrier 5 and cam follower and lever mechanisms cooperating with said cams, the stitch transfer device is moved up and down and back and forth, and the respective needles 2 of the second bed moved back and forth longitudinally, in a predetermined sequence which produces, reliably, one desired stitch transfer per revolution of the handle 10.
The device affords high reliability of stitch transfer in a mechanical fashion, with a substantial reduction in time and labor, in operation, as compared with stitch transfer by means of hand held tools.
