ABSTRACT:
A rolling-up apparatus disposed below the knitting unit of a circular knitting machine has a pair of support frames rotatable and stoppable in synchronism with the knitting unit. A take-up spool, having a pair of spool members subdividing it lengthwise, is supported by the support frames and is rotatable about a horizontal axis. The spool members are advanced to a rolling-up position to clamp the leading end of the fabric and then rotated to roll up the fabric thereon. The spool members are withdrawn from the rolled-up fabric, which is then delivered from the knitting machine. The spool members are advanced again to the rolling-up position to roll up the subsequent portion of fabric, after part of it has been deflected into the path of the path of the spool members by a fabric shifting member.
