The invention relates to a knitting machine with a straight cross member (straight bar knitting machine) rait a pairing device, djufweiat the hash silver transmission points. The Masohen transfer points can Machine transmission functions to shape clothes, to form V-shaped constrictions or necklines, to produce model strands or To produce markings, duplicates, taaohen and carriers (garment shaping, vee neok, fanoy lace, marking, doubling, pouohing and oabling operations). In particular concerns the invention optionally controls a device sun of the Maaohen transferunfipoints. j

Transfer points with the associated needles either individually, in groups «all together, in defined patterns or come into engagement and knitted in selected patterns Pick up masohen from the previously knitted row of stitches and sideways in one of the directions onto the adjacent one Needle or via two »three or four needle holes transfer * Obvious and natural a stitch can be transferred from a needle, leaving this needle empty and creating an opening in the garment, or diminishing of the garment. On the other hand, stitches can be transferred to one needle or several needles already pick up one or more stitches.

All fully contoured knitting machines with straight crossbeams have a reduction device with which the individual stitch transfer functions described above can be carried out. However, there is a difficulty in providing these punctures with the associated selection and control mechanisms on the lowering device, within the width of the knitting head. Due to the limited space available, it is necessary to retract certain machine elements, if none can be used so that other elements have the necessary operating room available. The return of those Masohineneltmenjte, which are not successful, can be done manually, whereby the Maeahlne must be stopped so that production time is lost. On the other hand, the withdrawal can be done aiätonatiioh, .which would require additional mechanisms and controls *, which cost.

Two spade devices 44 and 45 are provided in order to work strand patterns, for example approximately 2.5 cm (1 ") long. They sit on terminal blocks

The control device is related in Pig, 5 with the spade device 44 shown. It should be noted, however, that a similar device is provided is to control the space device 45. The mechanism comprises a triangular block 49 which is attached to the control rod 47 and in a fork-shaped Slide block 5o can intervene.

To perform a marking process (marking operation), more spade devices are connected to a single projection 44a provided 64 and 65, sit on terminal blocks 66 respectively to control rods 67 and 68. In the present case, the spade devices 64 and 65 operate with their tails century the selection elements 21 together.

It should be noted that a longitudinal movement of the spade devices 69 and Jo for performing a duplicating or contouring process is brought about by moving the control rods 75 and 76 to the sides.

to transmit a movement to the spading device 69, the gear 77 sits in a holder 79> which is arranged on a fixed part of the machine. In this bracket meshes the gear with a rack 8o. To the rack 8o is via a pin 82 which seated in a slot 83, a lever 81 connected, which is connected to another lever. This other lever is operated by a nooke on the Main camshaft 12 of the machine sits or from this is controlled. This results in a movement of the rack and a corresponding rotation of the rod 75.

In order to give the control rod 75 and thus the spading device 69 a longitudinal movement, a Sliding element 84 is provided, which in fixed guides 85 sits. The sliding element 84 carries a slot 86 into which a lever 87 engages. Between these two Parts there is a rotary connection via a driving pin 88. The lever 87 gives the sliding element 84 a reciprocating motion due to a cam actuated linkage system which is in driving connection with the main camshaft 12 of the machine. Two angle levers 89 and 91 are pivotably mounted on the sliding element 84. They are designed identically and arranged so that they face in opposite directions. You can in the webs 78 of the gear intervene and are used for this purpose by tension springs 9I and 92 biased. Both levers normally assume a rest position corresponding to the lever 89, namely under the action of a control lever, not shown, which is effective via the cables 93 and 94.

In order to move the control rod 75 and thus the spading device 69 intermittently in one direction, either the cable 93 or the cable 9 ^ is released so that the associated lever 89 or 90 is actuated and comes into a position in which it is in one of the Interstices between the webs j8 engages. In this position, a reciprocating movement of the sliding element 84, the stroke of which is greater than an intermediate space between the webs 78 and less than two such interstices, causes the control rod 75 to move gradually according to the pitch of the webs 78.

If a doubling process is to be carried out, for example to reduce the row width of the last row of a rib edge to that of the first row of the body tissue, the spade devices 59 and Jo are brought into their extreme positions, that is, into the positions in which their front or ifi % «If« ft ends overlap a small number of dialing elements. In this position, the spade elements are moved forward in order to bring the small number of selector elements 21 into second positions and thus to ensure that the corresponding mesh transfer elements 5 maintain their operating positions the selected needles one needle step inward to move, so that the doubled stitch, for example 1.2. cm (1/2 ^IB ) from each edge of the knitted fabric

Then bring the spade devices 69 and 70 uiii, for example 1 ^ 2 am (. ": 1/2") inwards » This results in another section of 1.2 cm

(ο, 5 ") width of transfer elements is actuated, so that when the lowering head 3> is put into operation again, all previously transferred stitches are transferred inwards together with the new stitches, one doubled stitch 2.5 cm (1") from each To create the edge of the knitted fabric. This process is repeated with steps of for example 1,2 cm (o, 5 ") are actuated until all Ubertragungspunkte. 5 This causes a dublierte mesh at intervals of 1.2 cm (o, 5 ^M) over the entire Width of the garment is provided.

This process simulates a multiple diving system (multidip system) of duplicating, in which the mesh transfer elements are moved outwards themselves, so that their insides few points with the outermost The needles are aligned to begin the duplication process. The transmission elements are then gradually moved inwards, in a steady manner Spacing to form a series of duplicates across the width of the fabric.

To create a trim on a garment, ie narrowing, the spade devices 69 and Jo are oriented so that their inner ends overlap the garment's trims by, for example, 2.5 cm (1 ⁿ ). This arrangement is maintained! By moving the spade devices in the same direction with the crossbeam carrying the yarn and / or with the control elements for the effective width. When performing a normal dipping process of the lowering head 3 using the selected mesh transfer points 5, in this
