ABSTRACT:
Conversion of a circular knitting machine having a particular diameter of needle cylinder to a machine having a different diameter of needle cylinder is permitted within a limited range of sizes of needle cylinders. This conversion is made possible by providing a plurality of sets of segmental knitting cam support blocks which may be positioned around needle cylinders of different diameters to reduce the normal number of parts which must be replaced when changing a particular knitting machine from one size needle cylinder to another. The number of yarn feeders associated with each segmental knitting cam support blocks of each set is determined so that the number of yarn feeders supported by each segmental knitting cam support block is equivalent to an integral multiple of one pitch covered by one yarn feeder.
