ABSTRACT:
A stitch-forming machine which has needles guided on a needle support for displacement in the longitudinal direction and controlled by needle cams and also has holding-down and knocking-over sinkers which are adapted for displacement between the needles in the region of their heads and are moved by sinker cams in the longitudinal and transverse directions relative to the needle support. In order to guide the needles and sinkers so that they are laterally stable and to be able to operate them quietly and using relatively little power, it is suggested that the sinkers be composed of a push sinker adapted for displacement solely in the longitudinal direction and a holding-down and knocking-over sinker articulatedly connected to the push sinker and adapted for displacement in both the longitudinal and transverse directions, that the needles and push sinkers be commonly guided between webs on the needle support means, the needles thereby resting against the backs of the push sinkers, and that the pivot connection between the push sinker on the one hand and the holding-down and knocking-over sinker on the other be designed and arranged such that the holding-down and knocking-over sinker is disposed between the needles in the region of their heads.
