ABSTRACT:
A straight knitting machine comprises needles in a needle bed and cam means for actuating the needles for casting on, loop forming and stitch transfer, during which operations the needles are selected by lowering or lifting the needles into or out of the needle bed so that a foot of each needle completely or partially projects from the needle bed, or is withdrawn completely into the needle bed and is thus selectively engaged by lifting portions of the cam means. The needles are raised by spring means and are pressed into the needle bed by pressure strips mounted on a slide. A selector element is associated with each slot in the needle bed for transmitting control movements from the pressure strips to the needles and a shaft of each needle is retained in an intermediate member. The intermediate members are provided with fixed feet arranged in rows for engagement by the pressure strips and with a further foot movable selectively into different rows for engagement by the pressure strips.
