ABSTRACT:
A yarn feed unit for a single-cylinder circular knitting machine comprises a plurality of yarn feeding fingers independently journalled to a common axis and independently movable between an inoperative and an operative position. The axis is supported by a carrier body which is radially displaceable with respect to the needle cylinder between a work position close to the needle cylinder and a rest position remote from the needle cylinder. Movement of the carrier body from the work position to the rest position causes the operative yarn feeding fingers to be simultaneously tilted into the inoperative position and all the yarn feeding fingers to be radially withdrawn from the needle cylinder, thus allowing rotation of the needle cylinder and needle dial to set the machine without any risk of damaging the needles and without manually handling the dial needles.
