ABSTRACT:
A circular knitting machine in which for switching from continuous rotary motion to reciprocating motion and vice versa there is provided a coupling member rotatively rigid with a shaft and axially displaceable between two pinions, idly arranged on the shaft. One pinion is constantly reciprocated by a reciprocable toothed sector, while the other pinion is constantly rotated. The coupling member is alternately engageable with a respective one of the pinions, so as to cause the shaft, which is operatively connected to the needle cylinder(s), to reciprocate or rotate. A control lever is pivoted to the stationary structure of the machine and has one end slideably engaging the coupling member and the other end slideably engaging two rotatable cams, which provide angular displacement of the control lever to cause axial displacement of the coupling member. The cams can be uncoupled from a cam driving shaft rotated by the main drive of the machine.
