ABSTRACT:
A circular knitting machine for manufacturing hosiery comprises a lower needle cylinder (1) having a cam section arrangement (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) and a verticle trick (2) grooved on the needle cylinder (1) near the arrangement (5, 6, 7, 8, 9). The cam section arrangement (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) defines a plurality of channels (13, 14, 15, 16). A sinker arrangement (3, 4) is disposed in the verticle trick (2) for verticle movement and has guiding butts (41, 42) alternately engageable with the channels (13, 14, 15, 16). The guiding butts (41, 42) are movable in the channels (13, 14, 15, 16) in a knitting direction (S) and a reverse knitting direction (S'). A plurality of needles (4') are engaged with the sinker arrangement (3, 4). Stitch cams (10, 11) are mounted to the cam section arrangement (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) for engaging the needle (4') when the needles (4') are moved in the knitting direction (S). A reverse stitch cam (12) is mounted to the cam section arrangement (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) for engaging the needles (4') when the needles (4') are moved in the reverse knitting direction (S').
