ABSTRACT:
A double-cylinder circular knitting machine with latch needles and a device for automatically causing the latches of the needles operating in the upper needle cylinder to open before knitting. The device comprises cams defining a path for the needle-free sliders of the lower needle cylinder which lies constantly all around the cam box at a level corresponding to that at which the tips of the sliders engage the latches of the rib needles to open them. The needle-free sliders are selectively passed into this path and are subsequently returned into the normal knitting path when knitting plain fabric. The arrangement of the continuous path at a constant level all around the needle cylinder allows a more simple configuration of the latchguard cams and less wear and stresses in the needle latches.
