ABSTRACT:
A plurality of compound needles 1 are arranged in corresponding needle tricks 20, their butts 11, 14 being selectively caused to sink into the needle tricks during the movement of a carriage. A stitch receiving course raising cam 41 which acts on the butts 14 of individual needle bodies at welt position (WC) is disposed on a cam plate 31 of the carriage and in a space defined between a pair of cam faces 32a of a tuck position raising cam 32 which act on the butts 14 of individual needle bodies. Above the cam 41 there are provided stitch receiving courses (REC) for the butts 14 which lead to a tucking course (TC) through the space 40, and a stitch transfer position raising cam 37 which acts on the butt 14 of each needle body raised to a tuck position or knit position. On the cam plate 31 there are also provided slider guide cams 42 for acting on the butts 11 of sliders 5 to lower the sliders to the tuck course (TC), and sliders raising cam 36 for acting on the butts 11 of sliders 5 raised to the tuck course (TC) to raise the sliders to a level suitable for their passage above the slider guide cams 42. The compound needles 1 in the flat knitting machine may be selectively caused to knit, tuck, welt, or perform stitch transfer.
