ABSTRACT:
A new latch box for stop motion apparatus for knitting machines of the type wherein the stop motion acts to automatically stop the machine when there is an undesirable amount of excess tension in the yarn being fed to the machine. The new latch box is of non-electrically conductive material and cooperates fully with the other parts of the apparatus as completely as the replaced latch box. A trigger is added to the new latch box in addition to its latch. Both the latch and the trigger are under the control of the yarn feeding arm of the apparatus in such manner that when there is excess yarn tension the trigger is actuated before the latch is actuated thereby to actuate the stop motion to stop the machine sooner than it would be stopped by the prior art latch boxes.
