ABSTRACT:
Means are provided for increasing the productive capacity of a sliver high pile fabric circular knitting machine. The invention comprises an improvement whereby one or more of the sliver and yarn feeding stations of the knitting machine are modified to knit two or more fiber-retaining fabric courses during each revolution of the needle cylinder. Each station is provided with a sliver feeding device for delivering a plurality of separate, spaced rovings of sliver fibers to separate, arcuately or angularly spaced fixed locations of the needle circle. Plural yarn feeding means, knitting cams and air nozzles are provided at each station. The yarn feeding means, knitting cams and air nozzles are angularly spaced, relative to the needle circle, and each is associated with a separate roving fed by the sliver feeding means.
