ABSTRACT:
A lock arrangement for a knitting machine, which comprises knitting implements (3, 3a) mounted to slide in a longitudinal direction (w), with working and control butts (6, 6a; 7, 7a). The lock arrangement (8) includes a take-down lock part (61) associated with the control butts (7, 7a), slidable in the longitudinal direction (w) and each adjustable into an advanced and a retracted position, these lock parts being provided with raising cams (43, 46) running obliquely to the longitudinal direction (w), arranged one after the other and raising the knitting implements (3, 3a) into a tuck position or a knit position, as well as with hold-down cams (42, 45) running transverse to the longitudinal direction (w). In accordance with the invention the slidable lock parts (10, 10a; 11, 11a) are so constructed and arranged that selected raising cams act in their retracted position on the control butts (7, 7a) and selected hold-down cams (42, 45) act in their advanced position on the control butts (7, 7a ). (FIG. 8).
