ABSTRACT:
A needle selecting apparatus for a weft knitting machine capable of performing a needle selecting position locking function without moving a selecting jack forward and backward is provided. In the needle selecting apparatus, an initial position of the selecting jack is set at a welt position to ready for non-operation. And when a butt is pressed by a B presser of a carriage, the selecting jack comes into a locked condition by a locking member. The selecting jack is sunk into a needle groove in the locked condition and the butt of a knitting needle is also sunk into the needle groove to separate from a knitting cam. When a knitting position or tucking position is selected by a needle selection actuator, a selector is driven by a selector cam, and a tip of the selecting jack presses a contact portion of the selecting jack to move the selecting jack rightward. During the movement, the locking member is drawn to release the locked condition.
