ABSTRACT:
Knitting machine for performing knits having a beginning and an end, which has at least one needle bed in which knitting needles are mounted for extension and retraction, which has a plurality of thread carriers running successively along an endless path and having at least one thread inserter and one thread gripper, the thread carriers being transportable through a working section and through a return section for the return transport of the threads from the end of the knit to the beginning of the knit for the insertion of threads into select needles, and having furthermore at least one thread clipper for severing the threads after they have been worked by the last active needle each time and after they have been gripped in the corresponding thread gripper, and having a control apparatus suitable for varying the knit width for the opening or closing of the thread grippers for the purpose of the release or of the gripping of the thread ends produced by the clipping device and carried by the thread carriers in their return travel, the associated inserters and thread grippers being spaced from one another in a direction different from the transport direction of the thread carriers at least immediately prior to the insertion of the corresponding threads into the first selected needles, such that the thread portions disposed between them are each caught by the first extended needles in the direction of transport and are brought into the position required for the next-following selected needles (FIG. 2).
