ABSTRACT:
A cylindrically knitted fabric is produced in a knitting region adjacent to the top of a needle cylinder of a knitting machine. The knitted fabric is guided downward around a conical nozzle and fed downward in a twisting-preventive guide cylinder rotating in synchronism with the needle cylinder. Air is ejected downward from air openings around the conical nozzle so that the knitted fabric is moved downward. Air is ejected downward from the nozzle into the cylindrical knitted fabric, which is thereby pressed against the inner surface of the guide cylinder. Upon being thus delivered from the bottom of the guide cylinder without contamination and twist, the knitted fabric is received on a conical gripper and is then conveyed by a pickup mechanism to a next processing step for producing socks, panty hose or tights.
