ABSTRACT:
The end run reversals of the reciprocating sled of a flat bed knitting mane are smoothly implemented by a roller 12 mounted on a hub 5 fixed to a link 4 of a drive chain 1 at one end. The other end of the hub is fixed to a member 6 slidable in a groove 7 of a lateral rail 8 mounted to the cross slide 9 of the sled. The roller runs on a semi-circular guide surface 13 of a support segment 14 mounted to the machine frame at each end adjacent a chain sprocket wheel 2. The support segments absorb the inertial forces of the sled and cross slide to thereby prevent the tilting of the chain links at the sprocket wheels and the attendant varying of the sled stroke.
