ABSTRACT:
A needle selection device for use in a knitting machine having revolving needle carriers and including pivotable selectors that operate to bring one end of each selector into actuating relation with a respective needle. A jack is coupled to the needle and, depending upon the pivot position of the selector, moves between an active position to cause that needle to be selected for operation and an inactive preset position by which that needle is not selected. A spring is associated with the jack to bias the jack to its active position. The pivot position of the selector is electromagnetically controlled.
